In the first place, Concetta, 15, and Assunta, 10, his daughters, are back home after spending a. weekend-oh, a glorious week-end, they insisted--at Coney Island, And in the second place they came back home last night sans the elder Cerasuolo's $342, which his wife had been careless enough to hide beneath the rug in her room. Had Orgy of Spending. But that isn't quite true, either, for last night, when a patrolman knocked on the door of a room in the Clement Hotel, on W. 15th Coney Island, he found not only the Cerasuolo girls and their friend, Veronica Mole, 10, who also wanted to get into society, but shoes, clothing, hats, toys, dolls by the half dozen, vanity boxes, lip sticks, rouge, perfumes (eight bottles unopened and seemingly as many more poured on themselves) is our capital," said the gorgeous Concetta, as dignified as a queen, pointing to a discarded sardine can in which was stuffed a twenty-dollar bill.

Five one-dollar notes were extricated from the debris that covered the floor. Saturday night Concetta swished her way into the Clement and told Max Weinger in her grandest voice MRS. R. M. PRICE DIES Mrs.

$5,000 SUIT FAILS TO END FRIENDSHIP But--It's the Insurance Company That Pays. William Klein and Benjamin Kngler have been friends, business partners, neighbors and fellow worshipers in the same synagogue for many years. They still are, although William has a $5,000 damage suit against Benjamin before Justice Druhan in Supreme Court. They and their wives rode to court today in the same motorcar. William testified that on May 13.

PHONE NEVINS 4800 CITY WILL STUDY NEW TRAFFIC LINK TO STATEN ISLAND Mayor Will Appoint Committee to Make Survey of Proposed Interboro Connection. At yesterday's meeting of the Committee of Whole Board of Estimate the request, of Brooklyn the Chamber of Commerce and the Fort Hamilton Community Center for the appointment of a citizens committee by the board with power to employ engineers to make studies as to the best means of establishing a vehicular traffic and railroad route between Brooklyn, Staten Island and other sections of the city was referred on motion of Mayor Walker to the city plan and survey committee. The Mayor said he would appoint the committee within the next few days. Prior to this action the Mayor inquired of Chief City Engineer Arthur S. Tuttle if it were not true that an extensive survey of a connection had not already been made under the preceding city administration.

Mr. Tuttle said that such was the case, especially with reference to the Staten Island-Brooklyn rapid transit line from which the freight-carrying feature had been eliminated. Delaney Still Favors Tube. Mayor Walker did not go further into this subject, but it is known that John Delaney, chairman of the Board of Transportation, has not given up hope that the passenger tube from Brooklyn to Staten Island at least will be built in the not distant future. The Fort.

Hamilton Community Center's request that the communication sent the board regarding the necessity of constructing the proposed Liberty Bridge as a vehicular traffic link between Brooklyn and Richmond Boro be turned over to the war memorial committee when appointed also was referred to the prospective committee on city plan. Acting on a favorable report from the Bureau of Franchises, the board granted the application of the sau Bus Line for a 60-day extension of its temporary permit to operate from the Nassau County line along Central Cornaga White st. and Mott ave. to Central also from a connection with this route at Beach 20th st. and Cornaga ave.

along Beach 20th st. and Seagirt ave. to Coronada Beach, $8,600 for Hospital Pavilion. Health Commissioner Harris was allowed $8,600 for the completion of the new pavilion at the Queensboro Hospital. Mayor Walker said that as the city Is $1,000,000 in arrears on tax notes the granting of the Health Commissioner's request will not make much difference.

The announcement of Controller Berry that he had just been told by N. J. Stroock, chairman of the board of trustees of City College, that the old building of the college st. and Lexington Manhattan, was in danger of collapsing something of a sensation among the other members of the board. There are 2,600 students in the building.

A tentative appropriation of $3,000,000 has been made for a new building on the same site, but as Mayor Walker stated the city administration had until now no knowledge of the dangerous condition of the present structure, which is nearly 80 years old. Blames Hylan Administration. said the Mayor, "that an effort is being made to shift responsibility for the neglect of this building to the present city administration." The Controller said he, told Mr. Stroock that the building should be closed at once to avoid accidenta. Frederick B.

Robinson, dean of the Business School of City College, urged the Mayor that an allowance of $1,500,000 be given the institution at once so that no further time be lost in starting the new building. The board took up this request at an executive meeting that followed its public session and it is likely that at Thursday's regular meeting of the Board of Estimate action will be taken in the matter. The Joint request of Boro President Guider and Commissioner Bird 8. Coler for $450,000 for the Improvement of the Kings County Hospital was referred to the Special Finance Committee.

WOLKOF CLUB HITS DORMAN CRITICISM AS SLANDEROUS LIE Commissioner One of Best Friends Jews Ever Had, Declares Resolution to Walker. The Harry Wolkof Association, whose membership is largely Jewish, unanimously passed resolutions last night in which the Jewish "veterans who assumed to speak for the Jews of the when they protested against the "Cohen joke" recited to an audience last Sunday. by Fire Commissioner John J. Dorman were branded as "outrageous liars against one of the best friends the Jews ever had." One of the resolutions addressed to Mayor Walker commended him on his selection of Mr. Dorman a8 Fire Commissioner and expressed the wholehearted indorsement of the association for "their pal," the Commissioner.

Council Backs Veterans. Although many prominent Jews yesterday expressed the opinion that Commissioner Dorman had not said anything that could be called offenSamuel Caplan, secretary of the Jewish Council of Greater New York, today made public the following resolution adopted by his organization at a meeting last night at 8 W. 40th Manhattan: "The Jewish Council of Greater New York at a special meeting resolved to heartily indorse the gentiments expressed by the Jewish Veterans of the Wars of the Republic in protesting against and condemning the undignified and offensive jest of Fire Commissioner Dorman recently at a public function. "It was further resolved that the Jewish Council of Greater New York condemns all slanderous aspersions, whether made from the stage or the platform, reflecting on any group of American Copy Sent to Dorman. Copies of this resolution were to be forwarded to Mayor Walker and Commissioner Dorman.

During the meeting last night Mr. Wolkof made a diatribe against the members of the Jewish Veterans of the Warg of the Republic, who publicly protested against the "aspersion" cast on their race and asked for the removal of the Commissioner. "The attack on Commissioner Dorman was an outrageous slanderous lie," said Mr. Wolkof. "It is a vicious attack against the Commissioner.

has never been hostile to the Jews and I have known him to be one of the best friends in the city we have ever had." Morris Florea, who was invited to explain his part in the affair, declared that he did not have anything to do with the passing of the resolution by his organization last Sunday. On the contrary, he stated, he disapproved of a public protest. A mild letter addressed to the Commissioner would have been the better plan, according to Mr. Florea. Denies Part in Attack, "I did not come here to apologize," he said.

"I have nothing to apologize for. I took no part in the attack upon Mr. Dorman." When he sat down Mr. Wolkof read a telegram from one Jacob Cash charging that Florea was active in assailing Dorman at the veterans' meeting. In this message Mr.

Cash promised to "take the matter up" at tonight's meeting of his organization in Harlem Palace, 27 W. 115th st. "I'll be glad to take it up with him," replied Florea, repeating that he was not anti-Dorman. "Mr. Cash rarely honors our meetings with his presence." Curtis Urges Ignoring.

Former Commissioner of Accounts George M. Curtis, who also spoke, said that the best answer "to that kind of demagoguery and knownothingness of a group who would foment racial prejudice and bias is to ignore them--show them what tolerance really means." Others who addressed the' members on tolerance and "booed the bugaboo of prejudice started by the Jewish Veterans of the Wars of the Republic" were former Lt. Gov. George R. Lunn and George O'Brien, DR.
