S. corporation stocks, was in Palm Beach dancing with her socialite husband at the swanky Patio, walking with her bulge-clipped English poodle on her South Ocean Boulevard estate. Her amiable, globe-trotting son, Julius ("Junky") Fleischmann, whose father, Julius Fleischmann Sr., died (heart attack) on the polo field, was ailing in his moated castle in Cincinnati.

This squeeze play soon brought forth almost all the invitations Dictator Trujillo had yearned for-a gala at the Pan American Union, dinner with Acting Chief of Staff Marshall of the U. S. Army, audience with Secretary Hull, tea with Franklin Roosevelt. Also included in the program was a luncheon by Haiti's Minister Elie Lescot, to prove that Haiti has forgiven Trujillo for his troops...
...Margaret Bourke-White, the Duke of Windsor, Myrna Loy, Prince Louis Ferdinand of Germany, James Roosevelt, Lowell Thomas, Elizabeth Arden and Ina Claire are not ashamed of having gone in the front way. Altogether the school handles 3,000 pupils a day. As result of a tie-up with Fleischmann's yeast (a mail order course for 81 yeast labels), Arthur Murray has acquired 350,000 correspondence students since last March. House organ of Murray's, edited by his wife, is called the Murray-Go-Round...
