1, of 35910 21 other 1937, osu of Ingersoll Pleads for Action On Atlantic Ave. Improvement Continued from Page 1 in an estimated operating loss of $130,000 to the railroad. 'Waste of Money and Time' Long Island Railroad cannot be forced to operate this service indefinitely," Mr. Moses wrote, "and the expenditure of $500.000 for the construction of the two local stations suggested would be a waste of public funds." The Park Commissioner also called consideration of the plan to lay four tracks between Autumn Ave. and Woodhaven Junction at a cost of $4,000,000 "a sheer waste of time." Elimination of th elocal service, Mr.

Moses added, will inconvenience the public only during construction, adding that "bus service on Aalantic Ave. will be supplied as soon as the improvement is completed." The Borough President also opposed all changes in the proposal. Says Ingersoll 'This is a practical plan." he said. Changes would mean added expenditures. It would be a great mistake at this date to go into any questions of modification." After urging a favorable decision by the Commission, Mr.

Ingersoll said that it will be difficult to get support for the Constitutional Amendment providing for gradecrossing elimination if the Commission does not approve the Atlantic Ave. plan. before Election Day. Other supporters of the present proposal who spoke included James J. McCut, president of the Improvement Committee of Brooklyn.

He said: "All we have gotten in 30 years of effort for removal of grade crossings is delay, postponement and adjournments, This plan will eliminate death traps and seven stations. It will mean better business, better buildings and better comfort and protection for the people of the community. Any further delay may endanger this improvement. We are tired of delays and must respectfully ask early and favorable action by the commission." Both Views Win Applause Mr. McCue was applauded 1 vigorously but so was Irving Albert, a former president of the Atlantic Avenue Improvement Association, when he urged the retention of 1o- cal stations, to which Commissioner M.

Maldwin Fertig commented drily: "Some people seem to be applauding both sides." Madman Fires 6 Houses Here Continued from Page 1 story frame dwelling at 341 Chester near the scene of three earlymorning fires on Sept. 8. At that time firemen were called to 364 and 421 Chester St. and to 362. Watkins St.

within an hour-and-a-half period. Police believed the same pyromaniac who began the fires today set the others little more than a week ago. Considerable Damage Done The Chester St. fire today did considerable damage and was listed as suspicious. The other fires were at 663 Rockaway discovered at 3:20 a.m., and controlled with slight damage; a cellar fire in a threestory building at 673 Rockaway which broke out five minutes after the other and which did considerable damage; and a cellar blaze discovered in a house of the same size at 306 Thatford causing slight damage.

The pyromaniac apparently continued his activities until his efforts were rewarded with a big fire, for after setting flames to the houses on Osborn St. he disappeared. The blaze 344 Osborn St. was discovered at 3:50 a.m. by a fruit peddler known in the neighborhood only as Jack.

He found the baby carriage in the hallway aflame and brought it to the street before running to the nearest alarm box. As he reached the sidewalk, he saw smoke coming from the three-story frame building at 345 Osborn St. A second alarm brought Deputy Fire Chief John Davin in charge of Brooklyn and Queens and two police emergency squads from the Mil- ler and Grand Ave. precincts. Third Alarm Brings Ambulances The third alarm brought Marshal Brophy and ambulances from Trinity and Beth El Hospitals, as well squad of patrolmen from the Liberty Ave.

Precinct. The police rounded up milkmen in an effort to get a description of the maniac while Marshal Brophy instructed his men to question all persons living in the neighborhood who had been involved in such activities in the past. Mrs. Bessie Schlevenick, who was asleep on the second floor at 345 Osborn was awakened by the smoke of her apartment door. She found the burning carriage alongside the door her screams woke many of the other tenants and her two small sons.

Mrs. Anna Koplovits, who lives in the same house, guided her four children to safety through the hallway. Another woman, Mrs. Gladys Ray, a tenant on the second floor of 343, reached the street by climbing down the fire escape with her two children. Questioning by police resulted in only a meager description of a man seen running from the scenes of the various fires.

Albert said, "let them have a referendum by the people affected." Former Judge Edward A. Rich- Cupid, Too, Protests The Long Island Railroad has been accused of many things during its long history, but for the first time today it was charged with getting in the way of love. In denouncing the railroad for neglecting its Atlantic Ave. Division at the Transit Commission hearing, James J. Ganun of 91-27 78th Woodhaven, declared there were too few trains operated.

"Even our daughters are taboo with the boy friends," he said, "unless they are local boys, because they can't get them home." ards, president of the East New York Savings Bank, was another who appeared oppohition to the Taylor-Moses proposal. He urged that the present elevated structure between Williams and Shepherd Aves. be transformed into an automobile sky way. With Judge Richards was Dr. Miller McClintock of Harvard University, a traffic expert, who said that there would be few safety gains if automobiles use the street surface in place of the railroad.

The proposal made by Judge Richards was greeted with considerable hissing. Want All Stations Kept Petitions signed by 6,000 persons were presented to the Commission by Joseph Coyle, president of the Dunton Civic League. The petitioners asked for a two-track subway from East New York to Crescent four tracks from there to Woodhaven Junction, and two tracks from the latter point Jamaica. Mr. Coyle opposed elimination of any stations on Atlantic Ave.

but also denounced the Richards' suggestion. He termed Commissioner Moses a "dictator." Steinmetz of the Richmond Hill Civic Association demanded that the city take over the line with a 5-cent fare if the Long Island Railroad cannot run it profitably. He was backed in this by Joseph Meade, president of the Atlantic Ave. Subway Committee of Queens and Kings. The morning session was adjourned for an hour at 1:30 p.m.

Lehman Asked To Oust Todd Continued from Page 1 an explanation that Mr. Todd's reversals have been about 75 percent. (At the Governor's office in Albany, Walter Brown, his secretary, acknowledged receipt of the letter, but there was no comment on it). Mr. Todd was not in his office at 120 Broadway, Manhattan, which is also headquarters for the Drukman case investigation, today.

His assistant, Joseph G. Miller, said Mr. Todd was motoring down from Saratoga Springs, where he spent the weekend at his country home. Bennett Not Informed Mr. Miller said his office had not heard from the Governor.

There has been no official information but a considerable amount of rumor that Mr. Todd's removal would be sought, Mr. Miller said. Attorney General John J. Benn nett who appointed Mr.

Todd as special prosecutor more than two years ago from a list of lawyers approved by the Governor, said he had heard nothing about the request to oust Mr. Todd. Greenberg's Letter Mr. Greenberg's letter to the Governor follows: "Again your special prosecutor, Hiram C. Todd, is running true to form.

"As a taxpayer. I strongly protest against this man's apparent inefficiency and he is not worth the confidence you placed in him when you appointed him special prosecutor in the Drukman case. "It is hard to believe that he did not know that one of the jurors. Mr. Klinck, appeared (at his own office's subpena) before the Grand Jury investigating the Drukman case, thereby causing the citizens and taxpayers of this community unnecessary expense by causing a mistrial.

"Maybe this explains in a large degree why the Appellate Division has reversed Mr. Todd more so than any other prosecutor. "Therefore, I say, remove him at once, so that the public and defendant get a square deal without further waste time and money. At his office, Mr. Greenberg said he is convinced that Mr.

Todd is not an efficient prosecutor. Mr. Greenberg 1s a Democrat, a member of the Thomas Jerome McGee Club in Bay Ridge. PAWNBROKERS SALES JOSEPH SHONGUT-GEO. SHONGUT Auctioneers, 82 Bowery, N.
