J4ef.stoalta, Few dales open. Itescrve yours Now. Capt. Stone Says Need of Receiving Station Here Is Imperative-War Not Over. Pleading that a permanent receiving ship station in New York City is an imperative need, Capt.

G. L. P. Stone, commanding the United Stales Navy receiving station in Bay Ridge, urged that the Park Department turn over the $6,000,000 atrip of land along ouuui nrooKivn wateriront, now covered with temporary naval barracks, to the navy for an indefinite period, or at least long enough to secure another suitable location. This plea was launched yesterday at a luncheon tendered to the members of the Municipal Club at the receiving ship by the Officers Club of the station.

The chairman of the meeting was Park Commissioner John N. Harman, who had turned the property over to the Navy Department for war purposes. He is not one of those, however, who believe that the strip should become a permanent naval base. "The need for this receiving station is so absolutely paramount from every angle," said Capt. Stone, during the course of his address, "that no matter if you approach it morally, physically, sentimentally or in any other way, you cannot but realize it.

"The war is not over. The war should be over when peace is signed. There are all sorts of possibilities ill the situation abroad. I do not neces sarily refer to the European situation. Even the signing of peace does not mean that the activities of war are stopped.

Matter of National IuiportaiK-o. "This matter is not a local one. It is not a State one. It is a National, and affects the biggest port of the United States. For years and years and years we have allowed this port to go without adequate provision for handling the enlisted men to man our ships.

You all realize the important part the Navy plays in a country's defense. The war could not have been won if it were not for the English fleet. Every war has been settled by the navy. We should develop not only civic and State pride, out jvauonai pride in tne matter. "New York stands second as to naval stations.

Chicago has stolen the Great Lakes Training Station from New York. The Philadelphia yards stole away another large proposition. "They talk of moving us off the land. Why? If these people in this particular locality can't see the advantages to them in this receiving ship, if the Park Commissioner and the people that benefit by the parks cannot see the advantages from a commercial standpoint, 1 would let the thing go. "We propose to make this place neat and attractive.

It is the best receiving ship there is. We only take up a third of that part of the ground below the driveway. There will be drills and band concerts. We propose to throw the ship open three days a week Sunday, Wednesday and Saturday, so the people may have a chance to see their enlisted friends. "Over $1,800,000 has been spent here.

It will be practically a total loss if we go away. You all are paying a portion of this. The Bay Ridge people object, to the receiving ship. Their argument is that their view is obstructed. "Our presence here will bring people down to see what his place is.

Brooklyn has a chance to keep the receiving ship here until it gets a proper location or even have it here indefinitely. Old Conditions at Navy Yard Scandalous, Says Caplain. "Let the Bay Ridge people get out from behind their Chinese Wall and knock it down. The citizens of Brooklyn should realize the absolute imperative need for a suitable place because conditions at the Navy-Yard before this place was secured were hardly, short of scandalous. They must appreciate the necessity for allowing men to live in suitable buildings.

It will be worth while as an addition to the pnrk proposition." Commander W. Butler1 Duncan spoke of "the services which the receiving ship performed during the war. About 7,500 men have already-been sent there for discharge, but Commander Duncan said that people could not expect to have all the men discharged from the navy and then have enough men to man the ships bringing ihe boys back from the other side. "There has been an epidemic of sick mothers," he said, "but we can't bring the men back if we discharge everybody out of the navy. We still have to bring l.r,00.000 men buck," The number of men stationed nt the Ray Ridge Station is 7,200, while at one time 9.999 men were being handled at the various receiving ships of which 9,200 were at Bay Ridge.

During the course of his preliminary-remarks, Park Commissioner Harman said: "The taking over of this strip was done very quickly but with the understanding that after the expiration of the war the Navy Department would turn it back to the. department. We must not forget that the Oily of New York has expended approximately six millions in the acquirement of this land, ami in the development of it. Unless something unexpected happens, we expect to get it back." Commander R. P.

Forshcw and Marshall W. Gleason, vice president of the Municipal Club, also spoke. Previous to the luncheon, which was held at the country home of the Crescent Club, the members were con ducted about, the receiving ship by the officers, Those present were: Frank 1'.

TO EDUCATE ALIENS VaHhinKln, February 1 5 Members of tho House Ktlucation Committee, considering a bill to appropriate $12. 00, 000 annually fur work in co-operation with the States to educate native illiterates and aliens who cannot speak Knprlish, were told that the Bureau of Minos has progressed to such a point In its safely move me nt that, further improvement will he ditllcult unless foreign-born workers arn tausht the lunsiiHRe of tho country.

They were de clared to be a meiiucc in an industrvi Queens Assemblyman Seeks Legislation for Protection of Such Men in Service. The fact that a war hero, MaJ. George H.

Glfford of Jamaica, a re-serve officer of the I lib who tn civil life docs big improvement contract work, may be penalized on a State road contract because he waf serving in France with the army, has stirred the fighting blood of Assemblyman Frank E. Hopkins, who now seeks through legislation to aid the major or any others in a. like position w.no "lay become victims as the result of their service to their country. Gifford returned to this country several months ago after a long period of effective overseas work for the tedcral Government. Much of his time, upon his return, has been spent at Southern camps to help train others for entrance into the service.

Gifford now returns to civil life only to find that the State officials are trying to compel him to do work at a scale which threatens bankruptcy, when his services to the Government made It impossible for him to gel work on a road started. Assemblyninn Hopkins had several conferences with Statu Highways Commissioner Edward Duffy and hopes a way may be found out of the difficulty. If Mr llunkiiiB has a plan of legislative action which has oeen indorsed by Republican Assembly Leader Adler. The Queens Assemblyman had his attention called to the situation in which Maj. Gifford finds himself by several prominent Jamaica men, headed by Edward J.

Kiely, counsel to County Clerk Cox. Maj. Gifford volunteered his services to the Army before this country entered the war. He was accepted as a reserve officer. About this time Mai.

ijirrora. who is the head und chief siocanoider of the Gifford Construction Company of Jamaica, obtained a contract by competitive bidding from the State for the construction of a road in Washington County, not far from Albany. He made all preparations to begin the work and was ready to commence when the call came from Washington to proceed to Fcanoe without delay. Since hia return Maj. Gifford has found thut prices have soared since the hid was made and that it was all but impossible to do the work.

To perform the task, he says, would be a certain invitation to bankruptcy. Thus far the State officials have not given encouragement for a settlement of the matter. Mr. Hopkins consulted with Leader Adler and a search was made of the statutes. It was found that war relief had been provided for canal contractors, but no provision was made for other classes of work.

Mr. Hopkins says action should be taken to cover other cases. He was told that cases similar to that of Maj. Gifford had developed. Leader Adler promised Assemblyman Hopkins that a general legislative bill would be passed, provided no other avenue of relief was found in the course of a few weeks.

and Broadway. Manhattan, yesterday, the last day of the time extension for issuing 1019 licenses. F.P. Redmond, in charge of the office, said the 90 clerks were taxed to capacity In getting the licenses out on time. According to Francis Hugo, Secretary of State, 2S7.000 licenses to automobile owners and operators have been issued in New York City for 1919.

Licenses for the operation of 35.000 commercial trucks, 98,000 pleasure cars and 8.000 taxicabs are on the list. Most of the licenses have been issued since January 1. Nineteen thousand chauffeurs and 64.000 operators have ap. plied for licenses to drive automobiles. Mr.

Hugo said he expected to see 500,000 automobiles in New Y'ork State this year, as compared with 450.000 last year. Last year the receipts from licenses, amounted to $5,000,000. This vear. he said, it would probably reach $6,000,000. AL REEVES LOSES HIS $1,400 AIREDALE At Least It Is Just Like a Dog for Which a Man Paid $1 ,400.

"You know me Al'' Reeves, the w. k. Brooklyn burlesque manager and comedian, whose "parlor, bedroom and bath" auto is one of the sights of our village, breezed into The Eagle office last evening. The office boy on duty identified Al at once. "The dramatic editor is not In," said the boy.

"Can the stage stuff," said Al, dropping into Holshevik for the nonce. "I'm not looking for uny critical guy. I've lost my dog." "Whadtla ya mean ya lost yer dog?" said the office boy, remembering un ancient joke. what I said, my lad," and now, like a good little chap, run along and tell the boss I have a tale of woe.

The entire staff arose as one man, donned hats and coats, and passed out of the building. With no particular objective In view except to liud a place that promised enough food for 17 hungry medical men. the party wended its way to Flatbush and as one doctor espied the Inviting sign of a lunch room the entire squad made for tables. To prove that the uppetites of all were satisfied the various checks were produced and not one was under 60 cents and others ran as high as $1.20. The total amount of the cheeks for the dinners was $13.70.

All the checks were collected and will be presented to Dr. Fitzgerald for payment. The doctors declare they will not pay for the food for two good reasons. They say they do not receive pay for their" work and also (bat they are entitled to decent food. To a man they declare that the patients receive far better food than the doctors.

20 Hours a Day on Slender rood. The doctors say that during the influenza epidemic they each worked twenty hours a day, and with the same meager portions of food thai they have had dealt to them for at least a year. Many a time, the doctors say, they have gone to bed hungry and have arisen in the morning with a keen appetite for something more palatable than sausage meat, only to be met with the ever-faithful "skin-tights." The doctors say they will hereafter look over the menu for every meal, and if it does not show a little variance they will hie themselves again to a restaurant and there partake of a regular meal. As an extra treat, the doctors were served with steak rl-day evening. It looked good to the hungry physicians, but when -approached by a sharp knife, they allege the steak did not even flinch, and was left untouched.

Dr. M. D. Jones, superintendent of the hospital, could not be reached'yes-terday, and It was stated at the hospital that Dr. Fitzgerald was not in.

Assistant Superintendent Dr. Price said that it was the first he had heard of the matter. He added that he had a large portion of corned beef and cabbage yesterday, and that it tasted mighty good to him. He said tnat they could feed it to him three times a week without a kick. Dr.

Price said he did not know anything about the bread and milk diet at midnight, but he added: "Bread and milk makes a pretty good combination, and is cer tainly healthful."

T. OFFICIALS IN NAS8AD Judge Smith, Who Will Defend Indicted Men, Sidesteps Criticism by Calling In Humphrey. (Special to The Eagle.) Mineolu, L. February 15 To sidestep any adverse criticism and possible complications that would interfere with his lucrative engagement as associate counsel to the officials and employees of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company who are to be tried here next month on manslaughter in dictments, County Judge Lewis J. Smith today imported County Judge Burt Jay Humphrey from Queens to preside over the drawing of a jury panel.

Tnis panel will in all likelihood be used to select jurors from. Ordinarily, County Judge Smith himself would preside at this function in the absence of the resident Supreme Court Justice, Townsend Scudder, who is in Europe, but as it would be highly improper for him to draw jurors and then pass on them in his capacity as counsel for the defense, he decided to avoid that duly. The drawing of jurors was set for the close of the County Court session, and after Judgo Smith had disposed of his day's work by handing out a sentence, he stepped down from tho bench and Judge Humphrey took his place. County Clerk Thomas S. Cheshire drew the slips and handed them to Sheriff Phineas Seaman, who read them out and saw that they were inscribed on the panel.

By this method forty-eight prospective jurors were drawn today. There the work stopped, for the time being, although It is obvious that many more talesmen will be needed for the trials of tho B. R. T. men, and after each side has penetrated the "atmosphere" of tho local jury panel, a great many of tho twenty peremptory challenges allowed to each will be used up before botlj sides say "jury satisfactory." It was explained today that more talesmeu will be drawn' before the trials ars actually under way, although no definite date was set lor the next drawing.

Lawyers declared today that eueh time some other judge comcH lo this country to draw jurors or hold a term of court ln Ihe absence of Judso Smith or during his engagement elsewhere it will cost Nassau County per day.
