President Hubbard, Largest Individual Stockholder, Leads Opposition Voto to Be Taken on January 5. A split among the directors of the Kings County Mortgage Company has been caused by their Inability to agree upon the advisability of a proposed reduction In the capital stock of the company from $500,000 to $125,000, as advocated by one of the directors, who Will Start Your Feet on the Right Road GIVE your feet a chance to be what nature intended they should be.

Filled Sand for Cataios is In favor of such a reduction, in view of the fact that real estate held among the assets of the corporation has depreciated in value since it was acquired. Such a reduction, It is argued by one of the directors who favors the plan, would give the company a surplus, would enable it to more extensively invest its funds, and to expand its business generally. The question will be submitted to the stockholders of the corporation at a special meeting called for January 6, and the decision of the majority will determine what action shall be taken. Although the Kings County Mortgage Company was capitalized at $500,000, only about $250,000 worth of stock has been Issued, and the proposed reduction in capital would, as a mutter of fact, amount to approximately 60 per cent, William Grove Fathers the Reduction; I'residoiit Hubbard Leads Opposition. The proposal to reduce the capital stork of the company was evolved by William Greve of the Realty Associates, who became a director in the corporation about a year and a half ago and who has been a radical and progressive factor In its affairs ever since.

Henry Frey, second vice president of tho company; Joseph T. Mc-Mahon, treasurer; Harry M. Eppes, secretary, and Warren T. Dlefendorf and John J. Kuhn, directors, are said to be in favor of Mr.

Greve's proposition. Harmanus B. Hubbard, who has been the president of the Kings County Mortgage Company ever since its organization about ten years ago, and who states that he is the largest individual stockholder in the company, is the leader of the faction which is opposed to the contemplated reduction. The capital stock of a corporation may be reduced either by the unanimous consent of the stockholders or by the consent of a majority at a special meeting called expressly for the purpose of voting upon the question of a reduction. i At the last stockholders' meeting the Greve faction controlled, directly and by prqxy, votes representing more than 2,000 shares out of a total of 2,521 shares outstanding, and If the Jroxles for the special meeting on anuary 5 should be again distributed In the same manner, the plan of reducing the capital stock of the company will undoubtedly be carried through.

A reduction such as planned, those who favor the reduction agree, while It might affect the par value of the shares held by the stockholders, would make absolutely no difference in the actual worth of the stock and would, on tho other hand, bring the capitalization of the company into truer conformity with the present value of its assets. William Greve, the father of the plan to reduce the capital stock, stated that he would not comment on the matter until the stockholders had held their meeting. "A majority of stockholders oan do whatever it wants," he "and it will be up to the stockholders to say what shall be done." Michael Furst, vice president of the company, and H. B. Hubbard, Its president, refused to say anything concern ing the proposed reduction in capital until after the stockholders meeting on January ti.

FIGHT OVER $835 ESTATE Kunemund Family in Row Before Surrogate Noble. A family row over a claim of $835 had a hearing yesterday before Surrogate Daniel Noble of Queens County at Jamaica. Sadie Kunemund, wife of Arthur Kunemund, who was the son of the late Carl August Kunemund of Thrall avenue, Woodhaven, declares the above amount is still due her as an unpaid balance for caring for the deceased during his last days. Mrs. Kunemund Includes in this also the claim that she Is entitled to money for board for herself in her own home while caring for her father-in-law.

Arthur Kunemund had filed objections to the accounting of his sister. Mrs. Augusta Taylor, the. executrix, of 742 Hancock street; Brooklyn, and included with it his wife's claim. It Is set forth In the petition that the entire bill was for $2,150, and that of this $1,315 had already been paid, leaving a balance of $835.

The services were for a period between October 15, 1912, and November 12, 1914. WAS A BAPTIST BAND.

"Germans never beg; I am a German. I will not accept charity. I have no work and If I get out of this, I will steal the first chance I get. I hope I get ten years."

STEAMER NYACK BURNED.

Mmlilnlsts in giiantlnry nntl Washing ton Hun a Tangle to Slialy Iik-ii Out. Ambiguity of the instructions Issued from Washington In regard to the wage Increases to go In force on January 1 Is thought by some of the au thorities at the Navy Yard to work great unfairness to the best men In the employ of the yard, by giving the lower grade workers a disproportion ately large Increase, In pay.

Although It is assumed that the ambiguity was unintentional on the part of the Navy Department, it is not by any means certain that the labor leaders, for whom the new regulations were made to please, -were blind to the manner In which they would work out. To remedy the disproportion In the scale It will be necessary cither to decrease the raises announced for the lower grade machinists or to increase the raise aliowed to the highest grade work-I ers. With the election approaching, it is considered Improbable that the Administration will risk the opposition of union labor by attempting to withdraw or qualify the increases announced, cm the other hand, it is probable that the labor men will be able to pry loose a still larger amount from the department for the classes of machinists who appear to have been slighted. The instructions from Washington raise the maximum wages for machinists from 14 to $4.08. Along with this there is another general regulation which says that there "shall not be more than five rates in nnv one trade at any yard." The regulations continue to say that any workman whose wages are between anv two of the live rates allowed shall be advanced to the grade above.

The five new rates are so fixed that in the boosting process some of the lower grade men can get a raise of 28 cents, while the highest grade machinists, who are really' entitled to a reward for their work, can get an increase of only 8 cents. For example, a workman who now gets $3,24 a day may be 2 cents above the newly created grade below, which is $3.22, and 28 cents below the newly created grade above, which may be $3.52. Though really more nearly worth the lower rate, he must be advanced the whole 28 cents. The labor men insist that if a low-grade man is to get a raise of 28 cents a day, a high-grade man ought to get at least as much. The machinery department was in a quandary this morning as to what to do, and after a rather heated discussion decided to let Washington straighten out the tangle.

Interment at Holy Trinity Cemetery, FREDERICK I.OErKR rne. POMl-T. AMD FbANT IBItViUls, Says Men in the Trenches Resent Ford's Mission Walden to Return in Spring.

Father reluctant to tell of the deed for which the French Government awarded him the bronze war cross given for bravery on the field of action, 22-year-old Donald M. Walden of 294 Jefferson avenue, who has been driving an ambulance on the French front since February, arrived yesterday on the French liner Rochambeau to spend a three months furlough with his family. "There really isn't much to say about it," he said to an Eagle reporter on the pier, at the foot of West Fifteenth street yesterday. "It was after the big German attack on July 4. We got a telephone call that two doctors were wounded up In the trenches and we went up to get them.

While we were there pieces from a couple of shells went through the ambulance, and we got tne crosses for it. That was all." "Well, did you nearly get hit?" "Oh, yes, I was on the driver's seat when the first one went through, but after that we got out and stayed in a dugout for awhile, until we could get away with the doctors. It wasn't very exciting." Soldiers Angry at Ford's Attempt to End War. But though Walden would not com ment on his adventures at the front, he was eager to tell how the soldiers feel about the Ford peace argosy that went over to get them out of the trenches by Christmas. "I had to drive a Ford ear," he said, "and it took a lot more sand to do that after the men had read about the peace ship than it did to get shelled.

The men are angry with Ford. They are in this thing to finish it, and they say a fool peace movement now Is an Impertinence. It is going to hurt the American automobile business over there, too, for a wide boycott is sure to follow. Everybody feels better now that the party is breaking up though," he said. A-considerable Increase in the am bulance forces along the sector in which he was located was taken by Walden to indicate the expectation of possible German drive before the winter set in, though it would have to be carried on under great difficulties, on account of the flooding of the surrounding country.

Our sector took In the foothills of the Vosges mountains," he said, "and for weeks both the French and the Germans have been fighting from their third line trenches. The first and second lines are full of water, and most of the roads are under two feet of it. Of course there is dally shelling, but there can be no attempts to take trenches. 'My experiences were no different from those of any fellow who goes over to drive an ambulance," modestly explained young Walden, prompted here and there by his father. Charles F.

Walden, head of the Meade Transfer Company In Manhattan. "When there was fighting we went up to a village a rew hundred yards back of the trenches and waited for the wounded to be brought to us there, Then we took them to the temporary hospitals eight or ten miles farther back. Sometimes, of course, if officers were wounded, or men who could not be brought back, we went up closer. And then when there was no fighting we waited back of the lines for a summons by telephone. When it was too cold we went to bed to keep warm.

Six Days of Strenuous Work for Am bulance Drivers, 'When we were busy we were very busy. During the German attack we worked from July 4 to 10, almost without stopping, with two or three hours of sleep at a time. But there were others who worked harder than that. One section worked for five days with no sleep at all. "For the most part we were merely ordinary' chauffeurs, no different from any others, and all this excitement about it is misguided." Walden left for France on January 12, 1915, and enlisted in an American ambulance section with the Belgian Army, February 3.

Three montns later he re-enllsted with an American section with the French Army In the sector to which he has been attached ever since. On October 12, he received trie war cross for the work that he had done on July being one of only seven Americans who had been similarly decorated up to that time. Walden is a graduate of Montclalr Academy, and attended Wesleyan University for two years before the war caught him. His furlough will extend through the winter, during which there will probably be comparatively little activity in the trenches. His father, though reluctant to have him go back, expressed himself as more willing to have him go there than break his word.

"Of course, if he has promised to go he must do it. I know he Is doing good work over there, and that is some comfort," he said. W. S. CALDKR TO SPEAK.

BUCHANAN AWAITING WARRANT Congressman Is Undecided at to Course Wants to Press Marshall Charges, Intimations that the trial of the eight indicted men in the Labor's National Peace Council case would be indefinitely delayed by a fight against extradition" of Congressman Frank Buchanan, H. Robert Fowler, Henry B. Martin and Herman Schulteis, were stamped as ridiculous by Assistant United States Attorney Raymond H. Sarfaty in Manhattan today when he heard of the remarks made by Fowler in Washington yesterday. These men, wfto failed to surrender themselves, will be arrested on warrants today.

"We expect to bring this whole mat ter, Including the Koenlg case, to an early trial," Mr. Sarfaty said. "Lamar, Taylor and Monnett simply les sened the complications when they came voluntarily, but the others will be here within a few days at most. There is no such thing as extradition In their cases. Buchanan may raise the point as to his Immunity because he is a Congressman, but the Supreme Court is against him on that point." Meanwhile the Government is busy compiling evidence which is to be submitted to the special afternoon Grand Jury which will sit January 6, with its special work the investigation of alleged German spy plots.

Mr. Sarfaty intimated, however, that about January 12 there will be more revelations of a startling character in connection with the Grand Jury hearings. Washington, December 30 Congressman Frank Buchanan of Illinois waited at his office In the House office building today for the arrival of United States Marshal Splaln with a certified copy of the warrant. Although Buchanan yesterday threatened to make a determined fight against being arrested, today he said he would not decide what to do until the warrant was served. It was expected that the warrant would be served late today not only on Buchanan but on Henry B.

Martin and Herman Schulteis, other members of Labor's National Peace Council indicted with Buchanan. GEO.
