SYLVESTER l POLI
Amusement Industry Mag
nate Retired Recently.
Had Theater Here.
Bs the Associated Press.
WOODMONT, Conn., June 1— An
attack of pneumonia brought death
yesterday to Sylvester Z. Poli, who de
veloped a wax-works museum “cham
ber of horrors" into a chain of
theaters.
The amusement industry magnate,
retired in recent years, died at Villa
Rosa, his Summer home, at 77.
Permission to make wax models of
seven persons under sentence of death
in Chicago as a result of the Hay
market riots started Poli in business
for himself.
From this exhibit grew his chain
of theaters, reputedly the largest
privately-owned circuit in America.
It included houses in Hartford, Bridge
port, Waterbury, Springfield, Mass.;
Worcester, Mass.; Scranton, Pa.;
Wilkes-Barre, Pa.; Baltimore and
Washington.
In 1928, Poli wished to retire, and
found a purchaser ror his theater
chain in the Fox Theater Corp. The
purchase price was reported to be
Sratlia.

$30,000,000. When difficulties beset
Pox, Poli again acquired his theaters.
Loew's interests acquired the chain
in November, 1934.
The old Poli's Theater here was on
the south side of Pennsylvania ave
nue, between Fourteenth and Fif
teenth streets. It was torn down some
years ago to make room for the Gov
ernment building program. For many
years it had been one of Washing
ton’s best known theaters.
Cash Income for First Part
of Year Is Highest
Since 1930.
B' the Associated Press.
Government experts who keep an
eye on the farmer’s purse and its buy
ing power predicted today that 1937
may set a new peak in agricultural
recovery.
The economists based their fore
cast on these trends:
1. Cash income of farmers the first
part of this year has been the largest
since 1930 and may approach $4,000,
000,000 for tire first six months.
2. The ratio of prices received by
farmers to prices which they must pay
has been most favorable since 1925.
3. Demand for farm products has
kept step with the advancing pace of
business and industry.
4. There probably are fewer per
sons on farms to share these advances. :
Population Fluctuations.
Experts on agriculture and popula
tion pointed out the number of persons
on farms decreases when times are
good and increases during a depres
sion. More farm boys and girls leave
for jobs in towns and cities when
urban employment increases, they ex
plained.
Census tables of recent years reflect
this trend. The farm population de
clined from about 32,000,000 in 1910
to 30.000.000 in 1930. despite the fact
that the birth rate on farms is much
higher than in cities.
From 1930 to 1936, however, the
farm population increased more than
1,500.000.
Gains in dollar volume of farm in
comes are reported by monthly tabu- j
lations of the Bureau of Agricultural
Economics. It said cash faim in
come the first four months of 1937
at $2,004,000,000 was 27 per cent, or
$554 000.000. above last year and was
the highest since 1930.
Prices Advance Rapidly.
The economists said prices received
by farmers for corn, wheat, cotton,
live stock and other major products
had advanced more rapidly from low
points of the depression than prices
of the things the farmer must buy—
rent, interest, taxes, farm wages and
other overhead or farm production
costs.
The price levels of the pre-war pe
riod of 1909-1914 are used by the
economists as a standard for their
studies. In 1932, they said, the gen
eral level of prices received by farm
ers was 39 per cent below the price
■level of things the farmer must buy.
This unfavorable relationship was
reduced to 8 per cent last year, they
said, and has averaged less than 3
per cent this year, the most favorable
ratio since 1925.
