M1 THE BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE. NEW YORK. TUESDAY, JANUARY 23, 1923. POLICEMAN RESTS QUIETLY FOLLOWING BLOOD TRANSFUSION Comrade in Uniform Submits to Operation to Aid Cop Made Ill by Wounds. Joseph Korody, they said at the Norwegian Hospital today, is "much better." He spent a quiet night after undergoing an operation in which a pint of blood had been transmitted from the body Detective Sergeant Joseph T.

Shea into his own veins. Korody is a retired policeman, on a pension of $95 a month, a physical wreck since, five years ago, he surprised two burglars Morris Selig's saloon at 29th st. and 3d ave. and received five shots in the abdomen. He lives at 108 N.

Sth with his wife and mother. Shea lives at 2903 Cooper Glendale, and is attached to Manhattan police headquarters. Until yesterday afternoon the two did not know of each other. But Korody was lying in the hospital in a dying condition, with blood so thin that the necessary operation to save him would only mean more certain death. And Korody, 011 his $95 a month, could not pay for the needed blood to make the operation safe.

The hospital authorities made no appeal in his behalf, but his condition became known through a published newspaper article and yesterday nine men and one woman appeared to offer their blood free. Dr. Henry F. Graham of 474 1st who was to perform the operation, looked over the candidates and selected Shea because his blood most nearly matched that of Korody. The transfusion was made.

Shea shook hands with the wounded policeman and wished him all the luck in the world. Then followed the operation. Today Korody's chief preoccupation is his desire to get well at once and go back to active duty on the police force. He is very grateful to Shea, who gave him the pint of blood voluntarily. "I want to get out and get myself re-instated in active duty right away," he said.

"I'm only 31, and thanks to the doctors and to Shea I'll do it yet." GIRL LOSES MEMORY Madeline Weinstein, 15, a student of Erasmus Hall High School, living at 172 Herzl was stricken with partial amnesia while leaving the school yesterday afternoon. She spoke to a passing fireman and asked him where she was. Observing that the girl was sick, the fireman took her around the corner to the Synder ave. station, where she was identified from books she carried. The parents of the girl said that she had been studying very hard for examinations recently and suggested that as the cause for her sudden loss of memory.

30 YRS. Bill Would Raise Salaries Special to The Eagle.) In Boro Register's Albany, Jan. 23-A bill which would give Register James A. MacQuade power to raise the salaries of all the employees in his office was introduced in the Legislature last night by Assemblyman Joseph Ricca of the 230 A. D.

"The Register shall increase the salaries of all employees in his office." says the bill. "20 percent in the case of any employee receiving a salary of $3,000 or less on Feb. 1, 1023, and 10 percent in the case of an employee receiving a salary of more than $3,000 on Feb. 1. 1923." The bill would make the increase effective upon notification to the Controller, who is to issue revenue bonds to pay for the increase.

A provision giving the Board of Aldermen power to make other increases in salary and to increase the number of employees in the Register's office upon recommendation of the Board of Estimate, is included in the bill. EXPECT SETTLEMENT OUT OF COURTROOM IN RAWLINSON CASE Judge So Advises in Postponing Trial of Dorothy Clark's $200,000 Suit. Los Angeles, Jan. 23-Belief that the $200,000 damage action brought by Mrs. Ethel E.

Clark as the guardian of her daughter, Dorothy Clark, dancer, against Herbert Rawlinson, motion picture actor, would be settied out of court, grew today. Mrs. Clark charged that the actor attacked the dancer in an apartment in New York in 1920, when the girl was only 15 years old. The mother, regarded as an important witness by both sides, was too ill yesterday to appear in court at the opening session of the trial and a continuance was granted until Feb. 23.

Judge J. Perry Wood of the Superior Court, as a preliminary to granting the continuance, said from the bench: "It would be desirable if a settlement could be reached out of court." "Trial of the case." he declared, "would only be injurious to everyone concerned." TO HONOR NETHERLANDS ENVOY. A testimonial dinner to His Excel- lency Jonkheer Dr. A. C.

State Senate. (Special by Eagle Staff Correspondent.) Albany, Jan. 23 Worried over his scant majority of one in the upper house of the Legislature here, Senator James J.

Walker today threatened with arrest any Senator who deliberately absented himself from legislative session without a reasonable excuse. This warning followed a rebellious move made by the Democratic Senators last week when they discovered that the Upper House patronage had been distributed without consulting them. To show their dissatisfaction certain Senators said they wouldn't bother to attend the sessions. Senator Walker's attendance order followed also a number of requests to be excused made by legislators who stated that they had to appear in court in New York and who argued that the judges would not grant adjournments. "If any one of you is not here when I want you I'll send the sergeant- after you." answered Senator Walker to the plea.

"The courts can which comes first. If it is the Senate, you will come back here; if not, I will be relieved of the responsibility for having prolonged the Mr. Walker announced that comhearings would be held on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursadvised Senators to begin at once the consideration of bills in committee.

THIEVES RANSACK CLOTHING FACTORY; TAKE $3,000 IN LOOT Despite police suppression of burglaries and holdups, news leaked out yesterday of the robbery of $3,000 worth of silks from Philip Reder, manufacturer of children's clothing at 887 Broadway, last Monday.

In their haste to make a safe getaway the thieves left behind one complete kits of burglar have LEGISLATORS found in some police of the Wilson to gain entrance to where the silk lay on shelves the intruders cut through heavy floor and a metal ceiling. One of their companions was lowered by means of a rope. Reder says that he discovered the loss when he returned to his place of business on Tuesday morning. He went to the storeroom on the third floor and was surprised to find a rope dangling from the ceiling. The rope was tied to a pillar on the floor above.

Pieces of metal, boards and plaster lay on the floor under the opening. A hasty inventory showed that more than $3,000 worth of silks had been removed. Upstairs on the fourth floor it was found that a door had been removed and a burglar kit lay on the floor near it. The kit contained everything from a brace and bit to small sticks of dynamite. Reder expressed the opinion that the thieves carried off their loot In a motorcar.

It is the belief that they entered the building from the Belvidere pl. side. The case was reported to the police of the Wilson ave: station. Sneak thieves entered the cellar of the home of David Lantinberg of 1557 50th st. on the afternoon of Dec.

CLAYTON TO OPPOSE GIVING HYLAN FULL CONTROL OF TRANSIT (Special by Eagle Staff Correspondent.) Albany, Jan. am not in favor of making a spectacle of the Democratic administration if it has to be done at tne expense of the comfort of the people.

We could turn the transit muddle over to the Democrats and let them make a worse fizzle of it if we wanted to, but who would suffer) but the people? The Republican party cannot afford to make a show of Democratic inefficiency when such inefficiency can result in nothing but further discomforts for a public that is already enraged at the conditions under which it must utilize the transit facilities in New York City." Such is the stand taken by Assemblyman Walter F. Clayton of the 21st A. who, when he made the above statements declared he was opposed to municipal operation of public utilities. "I am in favor of having bus lines that will operate as feeders or as main lines where there are no existing transit facilities, but I would not vote to give Mayor Hylan 25 cents to establish bus lines anywhere and everywhere," said Mr. Clayton.

have no faith in the present Board of Estimate" the Assemblyman continued, "and that is why I am to how I shall vote on the proposed transit legislation. If we should have municipal ownership in New York City it would mean nothing more than a chance for Tammany Hall to strengthen its political machine by an increased amount of patronage. "It is all very well to say, 'let 'the Democrats have enough rope, and they'll hang but we must remember that we came to Albany not to make our political enemies look foolish, but to enact legislation for the good of the people." Assemblyman Clayton has been counted on by the Democrats in the Assembly as one of those G. O. P.

representatives that would vote for the administration transit measures. They do not feel so sure of his support after hearing the statements Mr. Clayton made today. H. A.
