Good has been pointed out that some of the documents of a century or more ago could be moved out of the Surrogate's Court into another room, where they would be readily accessible to searchers, and then put the new filing cases where the old ones were removed. It is not stated that the court needs more room for copyists merely for filing cases and that the plan suggested would give that room. But one member of the board Fays the Surrogate's Court refuse to listen to that suggestion on the ground that it would not do to have any of the Surrogate's records outside of a room controlled solely by the Surrogate's Court. WOULD SAVE MONEY BY EARLY CONTRACT Supervisor Wanted to Award Printing; Job. Riverhead, L.

June 2 Without any previous notice to that effect, Supervisor Howell of Riverhead suggested at the board session here that it enter into a contract now with 'the same printer who printed the Supervisors' Proceedings for 1917 to print the 1918 proceedings at $1.44 per page. In view of the fact that the year Is only half over, and the work cannot be done until 1919, and because it looked something like star chamber proceedings, some present in the board room opposed the suggestion, and the board finally voted to advertise for bids for the job, giving other printers a chance to bid if they wished. It was stated by Mr. Howell that if the contract was let now to the concern he named the county would probably save money, because the printer would buy his paper now and could afford to do the Job at the same price paid last year. Mr.

Howell also suggested that a contract be made to buy the paper now for next year's tax rolls, or rather to give a contract to a man for the "stock," but this plan, too, fell through.

Fannie Schul-man, against her husband, Charles Schulman, proprietor jot a store In Hicksville.

Sarah, a pretty girl, said that she tends the store and has often helped with the housework; that the mother without provocation would assault the father, spit at him, and call him names. On the other hand, she added, the father would not assault the mother, except sufficiently to compel her to desist.

To questions by Judge Fawcett Sadie admitted that her mother frowned on her going to dances and bringing friends home. Ethel is a student at Girls High School. She is 17 and also pretty. She said that the mother did not take nroner care of the children. Arthur.

the son, aged 15, admitted to the court that his father told him to say that his mother beat the father and pit at him. Mrs. Schulman testified that she ft home on May 6, last with only i ho clothes she is wearing and that feared to go back because she is afraid of her husband. Schulman, who also seeks a separation, stated that ho has always been good to his wife, but that she has persistently provoked quarrels with him and has threatened to ruin his business in Hicksville. The couple have now been through three separation cases.

WAGE INCREASE IS FEARED Ernest Hostetter, employment gent for the 'Wright-Martin Aeroplane Factory that is soon to open at Long Island City under Government management, using the plant of the General Vehicle Company, which for the oast vear has been under Govern- ment control, as a place for the manufacture of aeroplane motors, an- nounced at a meeting of Queens manufacturers, held in the Chamber of Commerce rooms, at Long Inland City yesterday afternoon, that he would need 9.000 men and women to work in the factory and that he was ready to pay any price to get them. A similar statement was made by George J. Quinn. head of the ortice division of the Gas Defense Plant, where gas masks for the soldiers are being made, who announced that his plant was in need of additional labor and that he intended to get it. He hoped that the othe.

manufacturers co-operate with him and not forco the scale o' wases any higher than what it is jw, but he intimated that the help on the Government wnrl? would 'ha secured recardless of wliii 1sa mipht miffpr. As a resul-. of this condition, due to a labor shortage, the Chamber of Commerce was requested to appoint a committee to endeavor to nave an Queens manufacturers make a survey of their plants and report on the number of employees they could send to thete two war plants. Those manufacturers present realized that many establishments doing work non-essential to the war would soon have to shut down because of tho inability to get help or to pay the high wages that will prevail. John R.

O'Leary, National Superintendent of Labor for New York, said "that a Federal emolovment bureau will be opened in (he Pavntar Building on Hunter avenue and the Bridge I'laza, Long Island 'City, on July 3 and that this office would endeavor to njret the war factories the help that they must have, drawing from the other manufacturing establishments, if necessary. Mr. O'Leary told the manufacturers that they should do two things: First, to transfer for all em ployees that were not absolutely es- -Ainntiol trt tlia L.at nluntc and -annnri to replace men with women wherever possible. "We have not yet reached the point where the Government will require the registration of every woman not now employed," said Mr. O'Leary, "but we expect to reach that point very soon.

As soon as these women are registered they will be assigned to work, as the men have been assigned to their place in the National Army. We are making a survey of the hotels In New York City and we are of the opinion that there are employed here at least 15,000 men who can be sent to other more essential work and their places can be taken by women." SLEIGHT LEAVES SAG HARBOR PAPER Management of "Corrector" Taken by Charles Cilbride. (Special to The Eagle.) Sag Harbor, L. June 24 Com pletlng ninety-six years ot publication, The Corrector, oldest newspaper on Long Island, still published, will be taken over by new management today. H.

D. Sleight, who for thirty years has been associated with the paper, has passed the management and editorship over to Charles Gil-bride, who has for some years been foreman of the printery. Mr. Sleight continues as contributing editor. The Corrector was first established In Sag Harbor in 1822 by the late Colonel Harry Hunt, father of John H.

Hunt, dean of the Suffolk County fourth estate and founder and publisher of the Express, published in Sag Harbor and edited each week by Mr. Hunt, though a nonagenarian. After the death of the paternal Hunt, a son, Alex, and the late Brinley D. Sleight, formed a partnership, and issued the Corrector as a weekly, and at one time it was published as a semi-weekly sheet. Hunt and Sle.ght purchased the Schoharie Republican, and some time thereafter Hunt took over the Republican while Sleight continued the publication of the Corrector up to the time of his death in December, 1913.

The old paper was kept a-going by his son, Harry, who for twenty-five years previous had worked at the newspaper game and who will still continue as reporter for metropolitan papers and will now devote his time to historical and literary work. The Corrector will con-tine to be Democratic, as it has been since 1859. At one time the Corrector was published as a daily, the first daily newspaper in Suffok County, but the venture was not a paying one.

Florence accused Carrie of biting her finger and striking her with a baseball bat. The alleged assault occurred on Saturday and both women admit that -the fracas was started by Mrs.

Dris-Icoll calling Mrs. Raynor a "clam dig-tuer," which the former said is a pet ruame for the "south siders." The lat-ter say there was vile language used besides. i Mrs. Driscoll told the court that she strike her cousin with a bat and her cousin put her finger near her mouth and she Just naturallv bit her.

Frank Howell, the chairman, suggested to the board that it provides the Surrogate with more room by putting a partition in the room now used by the book typewriter copyist of the County Clerk's office.

It is understood that this is to be vigorously opposed at a later meeting, largely because of the expense, which the Taxpayers Association and others say is entirely unnecessary'. It CHARLES E.

Mr. Shepard responded.

(Special to The Eagle.) Riverhead. L. June 2 Super visor John Clinton Robbins of babylon used some emphatic language in his public speeches to the board urging it to adopt his suggestion and meet in the afternoon Instead of evenng that the pubic may be better able to attend the meetings. "I can eet in a day's work before I get here," said Supervisor Field, opposing- Mr. Bobbins' suggestion.

His remarks were Interpreted to mean that he considered he coald do the county's business at inght and attend to his own during the daytime. This brought the following emphatic retort from Mr. Bobbins: "If we don't pay enough to spend one day a month for the county giving us our other business affairs for God's sake let's ask to have our salary increased, or, if we don't want these Jobs at $1,000 per year if we want them badly enough to give the county one day a month let's give the jobs to someone who is willing to spend that much time working for his salary." E. H. L.

Smith didn't exactly op- dom Mr. Rnhhlns' suggestion to change the hour of the meeting, but he asked if the board could serve the public best by making tne cnange. "By meeting at night we have given up all other business cares; we can stay here as late as we choose; but if we meet in the afternoon we are like ly to cut short the business in oraer to catch an early train home. Anyway, if we meet at night we will be able to get through at our own leisure and can start a fresh business day the next day." "Fresh! Fresh!" almost snorted Mr. Robbins.

"Why, I've seen men after staying here late at night who were'nt worth a the next day to do any. business for themselves or anyone else." Mr. Robbins also emphatically stated that before he had introduced his formal resolution to change the hour of meeting nine of the ten members had told him they thought well of it. No denial of this assertion was made, yet it was apparent that many members were ready to vote against his resolu tion.
