Dead of Heart
Attack In N. Y.
NEW YORK, W) — Vincent As
tor, 67-year-old multimillionaire
socialite, died yesterday of a heart
attack in his New York apart

Astor, a great-great grandson

country’s great fortunes, inherited
an estimated 75 million dollars.
He was one of New York City’s
great real estate holders, and had
wide holdings in oil and other in
dustries across the country.
He also was known for many
philanthropies.
Astor’s father, John Jacob As

The son broke off his college
studies to manage the family’s
vast properties as “the richest boy
in the world.”
Astor’s grandmother was the re^
nowned social figure whose ball
room could accommodate only
400 — and those invited to her
social functions came to be re
garded as the cream of society.
Astor had recovered only re
cently from an illness and was
preparing to leave for his winter
home near Phoenix, Ariz.
The 6-foot-4 Astor was an ar
dent yachtsman and made many
cruises to the South Seas to col
lect fish, birds and animals.
He and his yacht saw active
duty in the Navy during World
War I. His vessel was the 'flag
ship of the first convoy to leave
the United States when this coun
try entered the conflict.
Astor is survived by his third
wife, Brooke.
