Arthur Brisbane in an editorial in the New York American today states that the young Count Salm who got so much publicity the past few days because of his marriage to Miss Millicent Rogers, supposed heiress to many millions, is of Jewish origin.
Says Mr. Brisbane in commenting on the marriage: “This young Hoostraeton exerted himself enough to go out and pick a large ripe peach on the tree of matrimony. He speaks various languages, made a good-looking sheik, a moving picture actor, and is said to have good Jewish blood. That blood at least guarantees the antiquity of his line and energy in his blood”.
