bills for to THE BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE. NEW YORK, FRIDAY, APRIL 9, 1926 1 5 A.D. DEMOCRATS SPLIT ON ELECTION OF SMITH, WALKER But City and State Executives Slide Into Honorary Membership After Hot Fight. Followers of County Democratic Leader John H. McCooey and SmithWalker loyalists, two factions in the ranks of the Parkway Democratic Club of the 18th A.

last night clashed in a vote taken on the tion of the Governor and the Mayor as honorary members of the cratic club in McCooey's home district. The vote came as an aftermath of a recent tumultuous but unconsequential meeting, in the course of which a group of members demanded that a vote be taken on the admission of the State and city executives Senator William Lathrop Love after, been accepted as honorary member. The Smith-Walker admisof directors in accordance with the sion had been referred to the board club constitution. Senator Love's candidacy voted on favorably following the temporary suspension of the constitutional regulation. Shortly before ten o'clock, when the meeting was called to order by President Philip I.

Schick, the members were informed by the president that the board of directors had acted favoraby on the Smith-Walker proposals. Whether they are to be accepted is to be determined by the membership through a vote, he said. A chorus of ayes followed the president's query as to who favors the election. Meeting Divided. "Nay, nay!" came A other voices from the front of the "Accepted!" President Schick retorted.

"Wait a minute. Count the nays. Objection- came other voices. A bang of the ravel and Schick stifled any discussion on the vote, announcing that the ayes rule without a doubt. The dramatic vote was followed closely by a no less climactic announcement from L.

Milchman, chairman of the building committee, to the effect that the club's bond issue has taken a serious turn and at least $500 will have to be raised within 30 days. B. Cohen, vice president, later elaborated on the club's financial status, urging the members to take immediate action in providing the next payment. President Schick caused a feeling of suspense to hover throughout the meeting when he announced at the outset that no member is authorized to speak for publication to any of reporters. No statement is authoritative unless it comes from the chair, Schick said.

Press Brought to Fore. The press was once more brought to the fore in a discussion the advisability of amending the constitution so as to abolish the practice of accepting honorary members. "Somehow, every speaker points to the press," Louis Wolff said. "This is not a speak-easy. This is not a silent organization and you cannot bar the newspapermen.

We have obtained much desired publicity, of course, and the reporters have the right to be was previously announced that the club is having printed 1,000 additional membership application A spirited discussion on possible future applications for honorary membership revealed dissention among the members. Vice President Cohen expressed the sentiments' of his when he declared that "the election of honorary membership all, an idle gesture." Idle Gesture, Indeed. "Would any member imply that our election of Governor Smith and Mayor Walker a8 honorary membes is an idle gesture?" a member spoke up. President Schick also took exception, to the "idle gesture" clause, declaring that the election of honorary members is an essential duty of an organization to recognize A man's vice either to the club, the community or the nation as a whole. That marked the second discussion on the amendment to the constitution prohibiting more honorary members.

An unofficial vote gave 4 in favor and 29 opposed. The final and official balloting on the amendment nt will take place at the next meeting. With the election to honorary membership of Governor Smith, Mayor Walker as well as Senator Love, the members of the club expressed the view that the factional opposition has come to an end. Alone, Boro Couple Observe 50th Wedding Anniversary Unattended by friends or relatives, Mr. and Mrs.

Louis M. Haverstick of 371A Greene ave. observed their golden wedding anniversary yesterday. "You see." explained Mrs. Haverstick, a gentle little woman who does not look her 75 years, "we have no relatives and few friends in Brooklyn.

And we have no children." She added a little whimsically, "You know, sometimes I think it would be nicer if we had them." Mr. Haverstick fought in the Civil War when he was 16 years old and was wounded in fact of which his wife is very proud. Both of them come frotn old pioneer stock. Mrs. Haverstick, who was Anna Randall half a century ago, comes from an old New England family, Mr.

Haverstick comes from a Philadelphia family that acted as host to George Washington and his staff during the Germantown campaign.

OVINGTON'S "The Gift Shop of Fifth Inc." Fifth Avenue at 39th Street Thinks Dry Law Enforceable That the Prohibition law is workable and enforceable if the proper men are selected to carry it out was the voiced on the subject by Flaherty, former president opinion, of the Federal Republican Club, during a lively discussion on the referendum at a meeting of that body at the clubhouse, 318 Union last night. "I believe that all this talk about not being able to enforce the law could be avoided if men were selected who were in sympathy with the Prohibition law and not men whose, opinions run counter to the work in which they are engaged," he said. "Men of this type carry out their own convictions in the matter. Another factor to be considered in the enforcement of the Prohibition law is the change of procedure which takes place after the policeman has done his duty." Harold L.

Turk took the opposite stand on the question, voicing a decided conviction that the referendum should be employed as the best means of determining the public's opinion. DAYTON ROW KILLED BRYAN, SAYS Might Still Be Alive Had He Stuck to Politics, Is Belief. William' Jennings Bryan would probably be living today if he had confined himself to politics and had not involved himself in the discussion of the evolution theory distressing conditions, is the opinion of Dr. Irving J. Sands, speaking last night before the Kings County Pathological Society, 1313 Bedford ave.

According to Dr. Sands, who read a paper on the subject of "Cerebral Arteriosclerosis," or hardening of the cerebral veins, hypersensitiveness due to anxiety, strong emotional reaction or fear are a direct cause of arteriosclerosis. Such hypersensitiveness, he claimed, is usually caused by a sudden change of occupation, or by facing an unexpected situation. For an illustration of his point, Dr. Sands cited the behavior of the principal Allied statesmen in the Versailles Conference with that of Wilson, whose whole life had been so different from that of a professional politician.

As a consequence Wilson re was subjected to a high pressure of emotion which resulted in arteriosclerosis. The general conclusions of Dr. Sands were concurred to by Dr. T. L.

Howard of the Long Island College Hispital, who read the other paper on "Arteriosclerosis." Dr. Howard revealed that, contrary to popular belief, alcoholism does not constitute a cause of arteriosclerosis. Another point of interest brought out in the do russion which followed was that heavy eaters are prone to arteriosclerosis, being more aggressive by nature.

Deploring the lack of adequate facilities for caring for the chronically ill, Dr. Edwin P.

Boas, director of Monteflore Hospital, yesterday made a plea for better provisions for incurables at a meeting of the Bureau of Charities in the home of Mrs. William P. Earle, 120 Willow pl. Dr. Boas explained the difficulty of the present situation and what form reform measures would have to take.

"The chronic diseases of neurological. orthopedic and We now offer you abling nature must have regular institutional care." he said. "At present the Home for the Aged, the Home for Incurables and the almsE the houses doors are to the those only for places whom that medical open assistance is of no immediate benefit. Their attitude is that of having received a hopeless derelict, and they wait for his death, so that another may enter the institution. They lose sight of fact that the patients are more susceptible to disease than the ordinary person, or that he may suffer a relapse, and with no medical assistance available at hand the worst often occurs." "Private philanthropy cannot permanently cope with a problem of such magnitude.

It is up to the Legislature, either of the city or State, to make provision for the chronically diseased and incurables within its bounds." Bird S. Coler. Welfare Commissioner, indorsed the attitude Dr. Boas, and recommended that the the convenience of a WORTH bureau take up the matter of nurses, who are "getting so high-brow that they don't want to take care of the patients in their charge." The Rev. Charles Webb, director of the Church Charities Foundation.

announced that definite plans for the erection of a hospital twice as large as and adjacent to St. John's Hospital, had been made. Among those that expressed their views on the subject for discussion were Mary Combs, social service worker in the Brooklyn Hospital; Miss Elizabeth Dutcher, secretary of the department of service and relief, and Mrs. Mae H. Harding, superintendent of the Bureau of Charities.

Dr. Thomas J. Riley, secretary of the bureau, introduced the speaker. DENTAL MALPRACTICE. "Suits and Claims Against Dentists for Civil Malpractice' was the subject of a lecture and discussion last night before the Kings County Dental Society, meeting at the build- Charge Account.
