There were 16 proceedings affecting Nassau County ana nine affecting Suffolk.

A large num ber of projects in Nassau County are being held up awaiting action by county authorities. The county engineer is preparing a so-called comprehensive plan affecting eight or ten crossings in that county and the commission has been awaiting the preparation of the plan before clos ing some of the Nassau County projects. Involve SI Crossings The commission has started 89 proceedings for grade crossing elimi nations on Long Island. Of this number 33 are in Suffolk and 26 in Nassau County. Those proceedings involve a total of 84 crossings, of which 45 are located tn Nassau and 39 in Suffolk.

The commission has issued 28 orders involving the elimination of 39 crossings on Long Island, of which 23 are in Nassau and 19 in Suffolk County. The estimated cost of the projects ordered in both counties is $9,765,850.

KLAN PARADES TODAY Freeport, July 19 Members of the Ku Klux Klan from Suffolk County, Queens and New Jersey, besran to arrive in Freeport early today for a demonstration by the order. There will be a parade through the business streets late this afternoon and a rally tonight on the grounds of the club at Grand Ave. The speaker will be Gene Talbot, a deputy director of public safety under General Butler at Philadelphia. 5 a -5, i cause proceeding on the functionalistic theory.

In spite of itself a style develops. International, austere, beiutlful, according to the creative genius of its designer. For this reason the buildings which Architect Asplund, archiiect-ln-ehief of the exposition, and Sweden's foremost exponent of the functionalistic idea has designed, have the greatest esthetic appeal. The Important exhibits are In household equipment. These illustrate another important idea which the exposition demonstrates better homes for the man of averane means, made possible by standardization snd mass production.

Cor-bUsier's "house machine," in other words. Economy Rather Than Luxury Conspicuous economy, then, rather than luxury, as was the ease in the ExPosition- necessarily the iriin ihi. i exposition for the decorator, if he is only interested in modernism as a new luxurious fad and fashion to odd to his list of period arrangements. The thought is far more modern, as a matter of fact, than any luxury style available only to a leisure class. It embraces a definite social democratic idea and its concomitant esthetic.

It illustrates the new alliance and interaction of economists and inventors, architects, artists and sociologists, which is definite post-war phenomena. Func-tlonalism, correctly understood and interpreted, is a philosophy of life Like it or not, under its banner are being enlisted the most brilliant talents of Europe. An exposition which does not add its quota to the experiments bein? made aloni these lines is not sensitive to the Zeitgeist T(. vitav )m lic understand the phllosonhv of the an(J with pni creBte new standards of hpanrv create new standards anp liable to all. It makes no difference whether the.

Stockholm Exposition has been 100 percent convincing in its expo-sit'on of these irfeas. The Imnortant point Is that It is the first exposition to hive dedicated i'self to this idea. After this the old tvpe of exposition will be impossible 1932, will be to the new era and a similar idea animates the forthcoming Chicago Centenary. The Stockholm Exposition accomplished its purpose in the fnce of conslriprable opposition. The traditionalists are all against It.

The criticism heard on all sides is to the effect that there Is nothing ex-nressive of Swedish culture and tradition about it. This, as it han-nens. is exactlv the Impression which its sponsors wished to create. If an exhibition indicative of Swedish culture meant amusement parks and restaurants corId after Da'crarllm vH'fces and in-snlred by Oripsholm castle and Drotlngholm PaIacei An International Stjle Functionalism produces an International style. Human needs being fairly constant.

Billowing for climatic and special economic conditions, such as the need for building horizontally, as is the case with New York City, it stands to reason that a house, school, gymnasium, kitchen, bath un. In Stockholm, Berlin. or let us say Boston and San Francisco, will be essentially alike. For the encouragement of those who believe that functionalism and mass production' will produce a colorless civilization completely lacklni In individuality, it is safe to say that there will alwarys be a martin of individual expression. And the exposition, for all Its dedication to an International Ideal, has distinctively Swedish characteristics.

The open air quality, the use of blue and yellow, as the predominating color note, the flags and the flowers, and the fine taste in arrangement, are all Swedish if the pattern and idea are International. mi a ToHeadG.O.P. State Ticket Sasse Rejects Peace With'DeBragga-To Waee Primary War 9 Selection of full slate of Queens delegates to the State Republican convention pledged to seek the nomination of Borough President George U. Harvey for Governor Is one of the principal objects of the primary fight between the G. O.

P. faction supporting Harvey and the group supporting Joseph H. De Bragga, Queeas Republican leader. Fred Basse, Harvey's campaign manager announced today. De Bragga recently announced that he was "unalterably opposed' to Harvey's nomination for Governor.

He took the same stand against a renomination for Harvey as Borouch President last fall but Was beaten in a primary fight. Rejects Olive Branch In making the announcement, Basse definitely'' rejected the olive branch extended by the De Bragga faction when it named Maj. John Holley Clark, Flushing attorney and personal counsel to the Borough President as the regular Republican candidate for Surrogate. Another object of the fight for which the Harvey forces, are organizing. Sasse said.

Is the ousting of De Bragga as Queens leader and the selection of a man acceptable to Harvey to fill his place. Want Boss Ousted "It does not matter what peace overtures De Bragga has made," Basse explained, "we are adamant In our demand for De Bragga's ousting from the party. No smoke screen, such as the indorsement of Major Clark will stand in our way." Sasse's stand is expected to cause considerable irritation among State Republican leaders in view of the fact that they were attempting to fuse the Queens factions to present a united front in the gubernatorial campaign and in view of the fact that De Bragga is reported to have agreed to retire as county leader at the end of his present term Which expires Oct. 1. To push their fight against the State convention delegates chosen by the De Bragga group the Harvey faction will open offices in Wood-lide next week, Sasse said.

Babylon Urges Alien Labor Ban To Cut Jobless Wants Local Citizens to Get Preference on All Public Works Contracts Babylon L. July 19 Employment of alien laborers on town road construction jobs has been con demned by the Town Board in a res olution setting forth that wherever possible citizens and taxpayers be given precedence. This was brought about after complaints from the Co- paigue Republican Club, which has among its members a number of unemployed, were brought to the attention of the officials. Road construction in the town has been in progress for several weeks. 'A few weeks ago the Republican County Committee, recognizing the unemployment situation, passed a resolution urging upon all govern-men bodies "the necessity of employing local labor on local and town jobs.

Edwards, who discovered In- the public nuisance act a means of prosecuting the owners of speakeasies, revealed his plan to use the same act against night flying when he announced he had called a conference of the heads of Nassau airports to discuss means of decreasing the alleged nuisance. The conference will be held at his office in the Courthouse Monday.

Invite Officials Those invited to the conference include: Walter L. Avery, manager of the CurtLss-Wright Airport at Valley Stream; J. Nelson Kelly of Roosevelt Field and Maj William Ord Ryan of MItchcl Field, the U. S. Army aviation post.

"I have received complaints from all portions of the county about the nuisance to our residents from night flying," Edwards said. "The most complaints come from the vicinity ol the flying fields. It is quite evident that the people of Westbury, Carle Place, Mineola, Garden City and Hempstead are annoyed by planes flying from the local fields while Rockville Centre, Lynbrook, Valley Stream and vicinity are complaining of Curtiss Field. "I have therefore decided that any nlghtflying that annoys any considerable number of our people will be presented to the Grand Jury as a public nuisance. This will mean a field that permits night flying will be held responsible in the nrst in stance as we have no police with 1 11.

"It is all nonsense to say that we are interfering with the progress of aviation for in this vast country of ours there are plenty of places that may be selected for night flying and every other kind of flying without endangering the health, hapiness and lives of our people and besides the people of the County of Nassau should come first. Seeks Complaints therefore, invite every individual who has been annoved by night flying, who has any information aa to the individuals engaged in night flvinB. to send their names and ad dress to the District Attorney's of fice to see if we cannot give some redress to the much annoyed people of the county. "The management of all the airports must run this business institution of theirs with as little an noyance as possible to the people ol the county if they shall expect any co-operation from the official side of the county."

It is a step bevdnd the combining of creative talent with industry to improve decorative objects. It is an effort to show the new esthetic of the machine and mass production.

Dr. John H.

Barry, Assistant Sanitary Superintendent In charge ol Queens, announced yesterday that the Health Department will take steps to have the pools either drained or filled in. Several reports were received late yesterday afternoon of watcrholcs. that are being used by children ior wading and swimming and it is expected that some action will be taken against them today. "All such ponds and places containing stagnant water should be re ported to the Health Department," said Dr. Barry.

"Once they are re ported we will investigate conditions and seek to have the owner either fill or drain the pool or effect some remedy. "The department has been deullni for some time with the owners of the land on which the pond where the West Forest Hills boy wa drowned is located. Some filling in has been but it is a difficult job It was not realized that the hole was so deep. Queens civic leaders are practically unanimous In the contention that the owners of the property on which the ponds exist should be held re sponsible for the menace to the lives of the young children.
