GOODMAN LOTTIE GOODactress, Campbell Funeral Church, Broadway, Friday, 12 noon. Auspices Actors Fund. THE BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE, NEW YORK, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1929. WALTER J. KINGSLEY DIES: DISCOVERED FOLLIES BEAUTIES Ziegfeld Publicity Man Victim of Flu--Helped Struggling Actresses.

"Godfather of struggling actresses" and "King of Broadway," Walter J. Kingsley, died in New York Hospital at 6:35 o'clock this morning, Kingsley, a former war correspondent, was publicity representative for Flo Ziegfeld, at the time of his death, and had previously been with the Keith Circuit in the same capacity for 15 years. Neither Mr. Kingsley's wife, Mrs. Francesa Kingsley, nor his 5-yearold daughter, Gloria, was present at his beside this morning, when the end came after an illness of 12 days.

Mrs. Kingsley had been at the hospital until midnight and was on her way back when her husband died, having been informed that he suffered a relapse, at 6 this morning. Mr, Kingsley was 52 years old. Against the advice of his physician Mr. Kingsley, who had been suffering from an attack of influenza, left his home on Feb.

3, saying he wanted to "get back into the game." He collapsed, as he left his offices to get a cup of coffee. His head struck the cement floor. Unconscious, he was taken to the New York Hospital. Discovered Famous Follies Beauties. As confidential man to Florenz Ziegfeld, a few seasons ago, Mr.

Kingsley discovered many of the most famous Follies beauties and was responsible for many of the best known musical comedy actresses of today getting their first opportunity. The actress of whose career Mr. Kingsley used to say he was proudest was Justine Johnstone. He also was proud of the fact he discovered Leonora Hughes, who began life as a telephone girl, and Billy Dove. Jessie Reid was another, he used to say.

He also spoke of having helped Peggy Joyce to progress in the theatrical world. So many of the stars of today are supposed to owe success to Mr. Kingsley that Marian Spitzer, in a book "Who Would Be Free," was supposed to have woven her character, Morgan Princely, the man who helped girls around him to success. Had Ambition to Write Plays. Mr.

Kingsley's ambition, as he expressed it, was to write plays, "if they will let us write the truth, as in this war play 'What Price Mr. Kingsley was known as a tireless worker. Last May when he became head of the Ziegfeld publicity forces hundreds of congratulatory telegrams was sent him by persons high in the theatrical and sporting world. It was while he was doing publicity work for the Keith theaters that Mr. Kingsley met his present wife-his second.

She was the premier dancer in Chu Chin Chow. Gloria, the daughter is their only child. Charles F. Kingsley, a brother, of 77 Park when notified death, went to the hospital to make arrangements for the funeral, the time of which will be announced later. MRS.

AMELIA STRATMANN. 72 years old, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Joseph Goodman, 51-15 Chicago Elmhurst, on Wednesday. Mrs. Stratmann 1s survived by two daughters, Mrs.

STORE Youths, Believed Same Who Killed Confectioner, Get $50-One Has Lost Nerve. Two youths, who answer the description of two of the youngsters who shot and killed David Horowitz, a confectioner, at 438 Court during an attempted holdup last week, robbed Joseph Landau, a druggist, of 653 Blake last night. They were successful in the robbery, getting $50, but because the younger of the two, in the opinion of Landau, had palpably lost his courage, and companion had to be during prodded the rob- by bery, the police think they have a chance of catching them soon. The younger robber is no more than 17, and several, times last night the older, 20 or 21, shouted at him: "Don't lose your nerve. Stick.

Nobody's going you." According to Lanaau, the youngster was nervous and. although he carried a revolver, seemed unable to hold it steady. was the older man who did all the work. Landau was tied and gagged behind his prescription counter by the older man while the youngster walked nervously back and forth in the main section of the store. The $50 had been taken by Landau, who was about to close his shop, and was neally piled on the prescription counter when the two visitors came in.

The older asked for a patent medicine, and, as Landau turned to get it, both whipped out revolvers. Police Notified. The druggist was pushed back of his prescription counter and was tied there. He was given a warning not to shout or try to get away for five minutes and the older man pushed the youngster out of the door. Landau got free and notifled the police of Miller ave.

station. Inspector Sullivan, chief of detectives in Brooklyn, said the description given Landau fitted so closely the description given after the Horowitz murder that he was certain the two men figured in that affair.

FULTON ST. ESTABLISHED 1859 A RESOURCES OVER $159,000,000 KINGSBURY LOOMS AS INDIANA HEAD IF STEWART IS OUSTED, Not Certain, However, California Standard Oil Man Would Accept Position. With many stockholders of the Standard Oil Company of Indiana asking the Rockefeller proxy committee to name its candidate for chairman of the board if Col. Robert W. Stewart is ousted, K.

R. Kingsbury, president of the Standard Oil of California, looms today as the likely recipient of the Rockefeller support. There has been nothing from the committee to indicate that Mr. Kingsbury is their candidate. It was reported the a few committee days ago, however, was seeking a candidate and that its choice probably would be a Western oil man.

It is by no means certain that Mr. Kingsbury would accept the post. The opinion was expressed today by men high in the oil industry that Mr. Kingsbury's inclinations would be to remain with the California corporation. The name of Mr.

Kingsbury as the probable Rockefeller choice was mentioned yesterday not only in Wall Street gossip but in a statement issued by W. G. Williams, executive trustee of the Justice Society, organized in New Jersey and consisting of a group of small shareholders of Standard of Indiana. In this statement Mr. Williams said: "We believe that the stockholders should be advised who Mr.

Rockefeller has in mind as Colonel Stewart's successor. Is it perchance Mr. Kenneth Raleigh of Standard Oil of California?" bury The Justice Society, whose members, it is said, hold a' total of about 1,000 shares of Standard of Indiana, are neither supporting Stewart nor Rockefeller. Their program is to have Stewart re-elected and then ousted by court action, if possible. They profess to fear, as Mr.

Williams put it in his statement, that "the Standard Oil of New Jersey is apparently using Mr. Rockefeller's shield of righteousness to obscure the real object of gaining control of a competitor they have so far been unable to outgeneral." Fifth Ave. Association Agrees to Raze Towers The Fifth Avenue Association, which seven years ago gave the city the $125.000 traffic towers in Fifth Manhattan, has agreed to their removal now in the interests of speed and traffic relief. The towers will be continued, however, until sidewalk lights installed. The police department's attempt to clear up traffic tangles continued with the canvass by officers of motor vehicles.

Cards were issued on the main thoroughfares to all drivers, who are supposed to answer questions printed on cards and return them to policemen. In this way the department hopes to find out where the large number of machines in the city comes from, where they are all going, and how they propose to get there.

Washington, Feb. 14-A system of underlying principles by which the comparative merits of broadcasting stations will be determined by the Federal Radio Commission is contained in a brief filed by the mission in the Court of Appeals. "All things being equal," runs the brief, "the stations with the longest record of continuous service are superior in right." The things which must be in order that the principle of priority be effective are, in general, the powers of the stations, determining their classes as national, regional or local, and the quality of the service rendered, it is explained.

"The entire listening public within the service area of a station is entitled to service from that station," the brief states. "In such a scheme there is no room for the operation of broadcasting stations exclusively by, or in the private interests of, individuals or BILL BARS JUDGES AS BANK DIRECTORS Eagle Bureau, Capitol Building. Albany, Feb. 14 -Judges would be prevented from becoming of corporations if a bill introduced today Assemblyman Louis Cuvillier of Manhattan is passed. "A Judge should be like Caesar's wife," said Cuvillier.

'And while he may have the highest motives, at the same time if a bank of which he is a director is interested in litigation pending before him, he cannot escape suspicion of being biased."
