FRENCH CAPONE. STAVISKY AID. 1$ FREE AGAIN Paul Carbone. Undisputed Boss of Marseilles, Rose from Gutter. Paul Carbone, lord of the Marseille* underworld, is another real character In the lurid melodrama of 'X'AfTaire StatiakT." whirh has shaken the third French republic to its foundations. His career is told in the follow in* article, fourth In a series. By SAMI EL DASHIELL AND THOMAS COPE United Press Staff Correspondents (Copyright. 1334. by United Press! PARIS, April 26—The panderers and white-slavers, the swindlers and forgers, the burglars ana pickpockets of the "old port.” cosmopolitan underworld of Marseilles, turnea out en ma. se to give civic recognition to Paul Carbone when he returned this week from Dijon freed from complicity in the murder of , Judge Albert Prince. Overlord of the Marselles criminal world, the French A1 Capone had baffled the police again and proved “an ironclad alibi ’ in the murder of the jurist, accomplished twenty-four hours before Judge Prince was to reveal to the world lurther details of the Stavisky affair. Like his friend, the "Baron” De Lussats. Carbone had slipped through the net, although there were grounds for suspicion that he, like hundreds of others, stood to profit by Judge Prince's vanishment from earth. The Tnughrst City in Europe Marseilles is reputed to be the toughest city in Europe. Its darker side has b< en under the sw r ay of Paul Carbone, alias Venture, for years. Carbone rose to his present magnificent heights through experience as a gangster, bodyguard, bouncer and gigolo. He might have remained obscure had it not been for an enterprising young woman who lodged by chance in the same flophouse by the harbor, v.ho decided to put his brawn and her brains to work. The feminine instructress took him to Egypt for “study.” He learned rapidly. From Egypt to Vienna, from Vienna to Holland, from Holland to Buenos Aires they traveled. and in each city they gave \Jhe police many matters of grave concern. Won Over Toughest Mob Carbone's mistress discharged him from her train when they returned to Marseilles, but the gigolo-gang-ster accepted his dismissal gracefully and gratefully. He had stored away an amazing lot of knowledge of the world for one born in the slums of Marseilles. Carbone won over the toughest gang in the old port to his leadership. They were called “the Stock Exchange boys," and in the reorganization afforded them by Carbone, their weapons were machine guns and dynamite. His second step was to enlist as a patron the most promising young politician in Marseilles. Realizing the value of protection, and with his high alliance, he became in six months the undisputed king of the Marseilles underworld. It Touched I-Is Heart Inevitably, his prominence was to bung him in contact with Serge Alexandre Stavisky, premier swindler of modern times, whose operations extended the length and ,/breadth of France, and whose alliances reached from the dregs of the French underworld to the heights of political society. Also, it was to lead him to prison when the police began rounding up suspects in the Stavisky affair. It is said of him that only on one occasion did he show any weakness. A murderer, once attached to his retinue, was expiating his crime on the guillotine. The knife, jamming, stuck three times. Carbone, watching the boy’s terror, turned to a companion and said, "Poor egg!” There were tears in his eyes. Carbone took more than one page from Capone's booic of life. While he was in prison at Dijon, he said to the police: “Let me out and I’ll solve Judge Prince’s murder for you in a week.” Tomorrow: Tribout, the Playboy. $25 Radio Reported Stolen Theft of a $25 radio was reported to police last night, by Miss Marie Bates. 944 Massachusetts avenue, apartment 4.

Want to Look Young?

The secret of keeping young is to feel young—to do this you must watch your liver and bowels—there's no need of having a sallow* complexion —dark rings under your eyes —pimples—a bilious look in vour face—dull eyes with no spaVkle.

TEACHERS ASK VAN NUYS' AID TO HALT BILL Municipal Bankruptcy Act May Cost Retirement Fund $17,000,000. By Times Special WASHINGTON. April 26.—Passage of the municipal bankruptcy bill might mean a loss of $17,000,000 to the Indiana teachers' retirement lund, Senator Frederick Van Nuys was informed today. The information came from Robert Hougham, secretary of the fund, in a letter pleading with the Democratic senator to thwart the measure. Under provisions oi the bill, cities and towns could default on bond obligations by resorting to the bankruptcy court. Senator Van Nuys said that Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan of Indianapolis, and at least a dozen other Hoosier mayors, had asked that the measure be halted so that the municipal bond market will not be destroyed. "I have been opposed to the measure since the time I first studied its provisions after it was submitted to the subcommittee of which I am chaiman,” Senaor Van Nuys said. “Its passage will weaken the financial structure o.' ail insurance companies which have placed money in municipal obligations. I am confident that I will be able to stop it on the floor of the senate, despite a majority committee report favoring passage, provided the administration does not push it through.” Although no statement regarding the administration stand on the measure has been made, reports are
