Death Of Professional Beggar Reveals Wealth In Several Banks New York. Feb. 2 (U.PJ The crippled old man looked as though he didn't have a dime. He sat slumped against a building, his one leg stretched out before him, a crumpled felt hat at his side with a few yel low pencils in It. "Thank you," he said politely when sympathetic passersby tossed nickels, dimes and quar ters to him. The old man's name was Rob ert T. Ingles. He was 62. And he wasn't as poor as he looked. Nationwide Business The story of how he made a nationwide business out of be ing a beggar came out today, nearly two weeks after his death in the paupers' ward of Bellevue hospital on January 22. Ingles, who also was known as Joseph E. Addeison, lived in a shabby Third avenue rooming house. It was there police found a stack of ledgers in which he had kept a careful accounting of his daily earnings.

Bayer, the attorney who drew up the will, said Ingles once told him it was a disap pointment in love which had turned him into a professional beggar. Ingles also told the law yer he had lost his leg 15 years ago in an accident. He was be lieved to have been born in Walla Walla. Wash. The neat, carefully kept note books found in Ingles' room de tailed his yearly travels. He trav- eled by automobile, trading his old one in regularly when he passed tnrougn uetroii. Tvoical Entrr A typical entry in his log book was: "Philadelphia.' total pencils buu at a a. m. $20 ana odu pen cils at 8." Postcards which Ingles sent back to the attorney from lanv pa, Fla., to Portland, Me., re ported how his business was eoine. One report said, "Business is good. I'm staying here." Another read, "Business not so eood. I m moving on. "He was a very cautious busi ness man, detectives said, but it looks like it will take a while to straighten out how much money he left." uvuu JU 1 B mi TIDE cuts washday work in half!

Feb. 2 (U.R) The California Physicians' Serv ice has set up a catastrophe health insurance plan to cover 23 long-term illnesses. The plan was announced yes terday by the CPS, the official health insurance organization of the California Medical associa tion. CPS is the country's sec ond - largest health , Insurance group. With Health Plan The plan will be offered only in northern California for the time being. It will be available only in conjunction with basic health plans now offered by the service. It provides medical and surgi cal benefits of up to two years' care or $5,000 for each of 23 ail ments, Including cancer, polio, tuberculosis, diabetes and severe burns or fractures. 70c Monthly Cost For Men It will cost 70 cents a month for men and 95 cents for women on top of basic contract fees now in effect. These fees run as high as $3.15 a month for men and $3.90 for women. Family con tracts are lower.
