Rut the old uuard is ttKhtlnU stubbornly to keep tllitly ox elusive this Inst stronghold of intrenched wealth. "The horror hnmlinil over us here is the danger of becoming another Miami Bench," sighed one longtlmo resident. To stnid dwellers in. this winter Shangri-La of fortune's favorites Miami Beach is Just a raucous Coney Island for the nouvelles riches people who have only had money for one generation. The difference between the two Florida resorts is Hint In Miami Beach people ship each other out of the way with hun dred dollar bills whereas in Palm Beach they flick dust specks off their walstcoat.i pro nounced "Wes-Cutts" with 5io, 000 banoue cheque. Or they did before the war. Two little devices called tho income tax and the inheritance tax have changed the situation so that, paradoxically, a well-to-do socialite can still afford Palm Bench while many really rich can't at least not at their old standard. . Smart comfortably wealthy residents are fitting themselves to the changing pattern of American life by building ex quisite smaller houses costing $40,000 to $100,000 and rela tively inexpensive to maintain. These make up the "cottage colony." Glorified Barns But many of the old guard ultra-rich are still saddled with the $2,000,000 to $3,300,000 glorified Spanish barns popular in Florida's first heydey. High Income taxes and falling interest rates on capital have made tho upkeep on these ailing archi tectural elephants too heavy a drain- for even a Palm Beacher's inflated income. "You can't even give away those old Spanish homes," one lady said frankly. As a matter of fact the late Col. Edward R. Bradley, a founder of Palm Beach, left his estate as a gift to the city. If it would undertake to keep it up. The $2,000,000 mansion of the late Mrs. Eva Stotcsbury, regal ( social leader of the lush nine-1 teen-twenties, .was put on the1 market at $500,000 furnished or $330,000 unfurnished. Presumably veterans were , given preference, but there wcro no takers, and the furniture is now being raffled oft separately. ' Mrs. James P. Donahue sold her i baronial dwelling last spring. It is being broken ua into five smnller homes with a street run iiIiir through the living room. For several seasons Joseph E. Dnvius. former umbassaclor to Moscow, hnx left his $:i,B00,(H)0 pnlntlnl residence boarded nml shut. "It would take about two months' work and cost $12,000 Just to open it," said nn Islnnder, "and It requires 30 servants to Stuff it properly." Clubs Fought Society old guards deter mined to keep their purlieu in tact to the last royal palm troo have invoked stern toning re strictions to prevent flnniu-lally strapped owners from turning their costly ooenn front homes Into "prlvuto clubs" where sev eral families could rent spneo during the season. They have also fought off at tempts by commercial hotel owners to buy space In the zoned area. Slowly, however, the Palm Beach of the fabulous past is changing to meet the needs of a new crop ot wealthy people who can't afford or don't want the responsibility of 80-room pseudo-Spunlsh bungalows by the sea. "But any changesiwlll still be very conservative the burs won't be let down," firmly said one Interpreter for the old order. Yet I bought a soft drink on the Island for a nickel, nnd builder told me I could snap up a neat West Indian typo cottngv for as little as $39,000. So Palm Beach, where In other times a thoughtful hostess Imported a whole circus to entertain her ten guests, certainly isn't getting any farther from Brooklyn and the Bronx.
