Y. BORO NEEDS $78,888 BY NIGHT OR IT FAILS IN DOUGHNUT DRIVE Only Big Individual Subscriptions Can Bring Brooklyn Up, Says Chairman Gunnison. With $78,838 to go to get its quota of $200,000, the Salvation Army Home Service campaign in Brooklyn will conclude midnight tonight. Unless there is an avalanche of money today and tonight there is little, if any, prospect of the borough reaching the figure it has been asked to give. More was received at the headquarters, 180 Montague yesmoney, terday than on any other single day of the drive.

Nearly $11,000 was turned chiefly by the police and the public schools. There were quite a few checks received. H. C. Reimer, the auditor, showed that the total receipts up to this morning were 162.

The amount hand yesterday was $110,361. Stanley E. Gunnison, chairman of the campaign, sees little hope for the borough getting its quota unless the wealthy people respond generously today with fairly large contributions. To date there have been a few $100 and $200 checks, but comparatively fe wabove those amounts. I "Every dollar will count largely in this last day of the campaign," said Mr.

Gunnison today, "I appeal to resident to give what he or she every can today. If anybody is not approached, I wish he weuld send what he can to our headquarters. "Many persons, we believe, have been expecting our house-to-house canvassers to call on them. The houseto -house canvass was not carried out extensively because of a lack of workers. We would appreciate it greatly if people holding their money for these canvassers will send it to us at the Montague st, address." much impressed Gunnison was this morning by the receipt of the following letter from Mrs.

M. Cebelia L'Hommedieu of 490A Monroe who lost a boy in the war: "Enclosed please find check for $15, small amount given with a full heart a in appreciation of the Salvation Army service rendered a loved boy in France. Knowing that the Salvation Army is now and always has done good to all I wish you success in your drive." Two $1,000 checks were received by Mr. a Gunnison last night. One was from B.

L. Atwater and the other from a Brooklyn business men who expressed the wish that his name be kept secret and that the amount be credited as an anonymous contribution. The police of the borough have to date collected $15,565.30. Their returns have exceeded the expectations of Mr. Gunnison who told Borough Inspector Thomas Murphy yesterday that he and the organization cannot praise his men too much for their efforts and labors.

Precinct No. 78 has taken the lead with a total colis second with $1.564.23 and No. 103 lection of $1,807.12. a Precinct No. 89 is third with $1,137.66.

These are the only precincts that have collected more than $1,000. The standing of the other precincts in the race follow: Precinct No. 87, No. 85, No. 101, No.

95. $747.82: No. 68, No. 77, No. 83, No.

79, No. 91, $40. Miss Dorothy Flindall of 135 Remsen st. has been one of the hardest working street collectors in the drive. Miss Flindall had collected $521 up to last night.

The McIntyre sisters, who gained fame by making doughnuts for the soldiers under fire, made a tour of Brooklyn last night in automobiles, appealing for funds for the Salvation Army. The sisters were accompanied by more than a dozen sailors, a jazz band and speakers. Today the McIntyre sisters began another tour of the borough and will continue it until late tonight. At 11 o'clock they made their appearance at the Borough Hall where the final noon-day meeting of the drive was held. Dressed in their war uniforms.

the sisters cooked doughnuts as they did abroad and sold them for whatever they would bring. While they were making the doughnuts, Jeff Davis, King of the Hoboes, was busy appealing for contributions. Borough President Riegelmann opened the meeting and made an address. A jazz band furnished the music. This evening the sisters will tour the downtown section, South Brooklyn, Flatbush, Bedford and Broadway sections.

The following checks were received at Salvation Army headquarters yesterday: B. L. Atwater, $1.000: anonymous. $1.000: F. J.

BIG ADVANCE IN R. R. RATES COMING Roads Need $300,000,000 to $400,000,000 Additional Rev-Government Must Provide It. Carlisle, May Government must soon advance railroad rates sufficiently to provide at least from $300,000.000 to $400,000.000 additional revenue," said Frank H. sistant to the chairman, Association of Railway Executives, in an address before the Chamber of Commerce here today.

"In the first year of Government control the net operating income fell to about 4 per cent. and this year, without an increase in rates, it is likely to fall to less than 3 per cent. "The return of the railroads to their owners before their financial condition has readjusted would not only mean reduction or eliminabeen, tion of a large part of the railroad bonds, but would undoubtedly mean default interest payments of many of the bonds. Return of the roads before the Government has rebuilt its lost financial status would undermine our whole financial structure." Increased cost of railroad labor and of labor empuloyed in industries supply coal, steel and other materials to the carriers, said Mr. Fayant, has increased the cost of producing transportation $1,500,000,000 since 1917.

One billion of the sum is the increase in railroad labor. "To meet this increased operating cost," he added, "the Government has thus far increased railroad revenues through advance in rates by about one billion dollars; SO there is left $500.000.000 of increased costs that have not been provided for. For the time being the deficit is being met out of the public Treasury. Obviously this cannot. long continue.

"Walker D. Hines, Director General of Railroads, said in ad address a few days ago in the West that the increase in cost of labor was from 50 to 90 per cent. and in rates less than 25 per cent. He suggested that to establish the equilibrium bet between rates and cost it might be necessary to find $300,000,000 of revenues through an advance in rates. "The general advance in railroad rates made a year ago by the Director General was the assumption of a possible total increase in wages of 000,000, but since the Lane War Board made its report, $650,000,000 additional increase in wages have been granted and it is understood that a further increase may be made in the future."

A. NO. 21. THIS COUPON With Two Others of Different Numbers From the BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE Entitles Reader to a Copy of ERSITIES THE NEW UNIVERSITIES DICTIONARY ILLUSTRATED Upon Paymen. ct 98 Cents at Eagle Main Office and Branches.

By Parcel Post, $1.05 Jewels, Go-Carts, Autos, Silk Pajamas and a Plow In "Junk" Sale by Police Curious, even weird, are many of the articles which are washed into police headquarters, Brooklyn, daily, on the tide which carries the flotsam and jetsam of city life. Go-carts, automobiles, bicycles, old iron, copper and brass, telephones, wine suit cases--it would take a volume to chronicle the varied assortment of stuff which is sold once a year to the highest bidder. One such auction was held yesterday, down in Poplar st. It lasted all day. A large room on the second floor of police headquarters was filled with goods until it looked like the interior of a junk shop.

Inside the railing the shirt-sleeved auctioneer stood on a table and called off each item, or lot, as he came to it on the printed program. Outside the railing stood a motley crowd of men and a few women, secondhand dealers, junkmen and what not, bidding against one another. There were no less than 325 articles listed on the printed program. There were watches by the gross, rings as they say in the parlance -and otherwise. Many of them could have told interesting stories no doubt.

They had been lost or were the grist of thieves. A Plow and Pajamas. Half down the list was a plow way -something truly rural in the midst of urban life. Now it is not to be supposed that the average thief would care anything about "lifting" a plow. Neither had it been dropped by any one on the way to work.

It was as out of place on Poplar st. as a codfish in a canary bird cage. How under the sun did it get there? The property clerk explained. Somewhere out in the environs of Brooklyn where one may still turn a furrow and an honest penny at the same time a man had a. small acreage.

He and a neighbor had a dispute about the plow, and one of them threatened to take the matter to court. The other thought it over and reasoned it out about like this: "I'll be if I'll go to court over that plow and stand the expenses of a civil suit. What do I care about the plow, anyhow? I'll just let the thing go and it will be auctioned off at the annual police sale. Then the money will go into the Police Pension Fund and somebody will get good out of it, while I'll save a lot of And there were ten pairs of gorgeous silk pajamas found on the Williamsburg Bridge. With a little play of the imagination one might picture a luckless and pajamaless individual wondering what had become of his sunset and aurora borealis parade on the bridge.

Ten men had not arisen from their more or less downy couches to wander out in the sweet spring air and cast themselves over the railing into the hurrying waters below. They had been dropped from a truck traveling across the bridge to some favored district where costly silk pajamas are as common as corn on the cob jat a shore dinner. Forgotten Baby Carriages. There were four baby carriages forgotten, no doubt, by mothers. Some and thieves have.

kids without carriages when little ones cry for them, what can a soft-hearted thief who loves his offspring do but steal out in the midnight hour, jimmy his way into a hall and "swipe" a carriage for the baby? But the chances are they were forgotten. The mothers generally have the forethought to remove the child before forgetting the carriage, for there is no case on record of a policeman wheeling an occupied carriage into headquarters. and as for auctioning off a baby--not much! There would be interesting and lively bidding in that event, that's sure. But women fare careless. Rarely a day goes by that one of them does not drop a purse on the street with anywhere from eleven cents to a number of dollars in it.

Then Policeman Number 999 comes by and it is turned NATIONAL PARKS SOCIETY FORMED President Butler of Columbia Vice President-Prominent Men on Board of Trustees. Washington, May 29-The National Parks Association was organized here today as the culmination of a countrywide movement to understand the! scenery of the national parks, to ize their full economic value for the nation and to have a voice in the upbuilding of the system. Trustees chosen include Walcott of the Smithsonian Institution, President Lowell of Harvard, Charles W. Eliot. John H.

Finley of New York, Henry Grier Bryant of Philadelphia, William E. Colby of San Francisco and I. Truman Abee. Henry B. F.

McFarland of Washington was elected president and Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia University, vice president. The organization movement was managed by a special committee representing eighteen mountaineering and outdoor conservation societies and the universities of twenty States. The stated objects of the new society are: "To interpret the natural science illustrated in the scenic features and circulate popular information concerning them. "To encourage the popular study of history, exploration, tradition folk lore of the national parks and monuments. "To encourage extension of the tional parks system, to represent by consistently great examples the full range of American scenery and the deevlopment of the national monuments and early exploration and history.

over to him by John Brown, the butcher--honest man. The book in charge of Property Clerk Cornelius Cronin, in which articles lost on the street are recorded, contains a long list of purses picked up on the pubflic highways. Yesterday a big box full of them was offered for sale and at once the bidders queried with one voice, The articles "Anything are in held them a year for a claimant. The law says they can be disposed of after six months, but the police give the owner double measure of time. In the meantime the articles are advertised in the City Record and the newspapers.

If nobody inswers. a finder's notice is sent to John Brown, honest man, or Jim Smith and he gets first chance on the article. Often he doesn't appear, and then some fine day Mrs. Jones passing a dealer's store may chance to look in the window and spy the purse she lost while watching the parade on Decoration Day. No Animals at Auction.

Sometimes a living, breathing article like a bearded goat may be picked up, but if you tried to auction off a goat at headquarters there would be the mischief to pay and he would probably eat up a few of the old mattresses, copper, lead, ship's anchor chains and such and greatly reduce the proceeds for the pension fund while waiting for a bid. So the goat is led to the S. P. C. A.

Same with dogs. Horses are put in livery stables and if no owner appears the captain of the precinct sells them, Therefore some captains become fine horse dealers. One day, a long time ago, a policeman brought in a barber pole. What barber had lost it history does not say. It may have been uprooted in anger by a customer disgusted with his shave.

It may have fallen under the weight of a late celebrant trying steady himself while figuring out the points of the compass and which way home lay. was knocked down, first and last, anyhow, and any barber lacking a pole might buy it in and take it home on the B. R. T. Many of the articles are dropped from trucks and never called for.

That was probably how a keg of railroad spikes found its way into the sale. How else would it get there' The folks who are disgusted with the ten cent fare to Coney Island have not attempted, any of them, to remove the tracks of the B. R. T. That also might account for the box of soap No.

184. There was some hesitation when the soap was put up at auction. At last somebody bought it for $2.50, Two mattresses and a tent went for $10.50. These are warm days and it isn't every who has both tent and mattress. Some Arab--of the streethad folded up, with the mattresses, and silently stolen away with it, making two steals at one fell swoop.

An oil stove awakened interest. At length it was knocked down for a dollar. Copper brought better prices. A lot of it went for $50. A box of foreign coins went begging for a time.

"It's Chinese money," said one with disgust. would some, million of them to make 30 cents." The whole boxfull brought about the price of the oil stove. An odd assortment of hats of all vintages brought in $4. A box Alled with women's TOP, pieces could not raise better than 25 cents and went to a male purchaser. A nickel alarm clock was sold for 80 cents.

Some of the queer things sold a were: Three boxes containing canned beef, an operating table and sheet, cotton hooks, spectacles, 31 anchor irons, two pushcarts, a box of sheet iron, a bag of cocoa beans, green coffee and other miscellaneous stuff. A number of au. tomobiles were also sold--chiefly "Lizzies." They had been stolen, most of them. and the thieves had ridden around in them until they got tired and then abandoned them. Quite a tidy sum was raised for the Police Pension Fund.

JOBS FOR DISABLED AMERICAN SOLDIERS President's Order Permits Waiving of Physical Requirements Under Certain Conditions. Washington, May 29-An executive order recently issued by the President and received by cable amends the Federal civil service rules so as to permit the U. S. Civil Service Commission to waive the physical requirements under certain conditions in favor of men who were injured in the military or naval service. The civil service regulations specify certain physical defects which debar from all examinations and other defects which will debar from certain examinations.

These regulations are based upon the requirements of the service as established by the several department heads. Upon the recommendation of the Commission. after consultation with the Federal Board of Vocational Education and the U. S. Employees Compensation Commission, the President issued an 'executive order, as follows: "Provided, that the Commission may, in its discretion, exempt from the physical requirements established for any position a disabled and honorably discharged soldier, sailor or marine upon the certification of the Federal Board for Vocational Education that he has been specially trained for and has passed a practical test demonstrating his physical ability to perform the duties of the class of positions in which employment is sought."

The construction of a drydock in the Brooklyn Navy Yard will be urged upon Secretary of the Navy Daniels ya committee consisting of Brooklyn Congressional and Senatorial representatives and representatives of the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce and the Metal Trades Council, which will call upon Secretary Daniels at his office in Washington on June 3. James Sherlock Davis and Frederick L. Cranford will represent the Chamber of Commerce; John S.

The need of the port of New York of drydocks will be explained to the Secretary, The committee will point out that large drydocks have been built by the Government in Boston, Norfolk, and Philadelphia and that the port of New York, the largest and most important on the continent, is without adequate facilities for handling the large oceangoing merchant and passenger vessels and battleships. The committee will also show that plans and specifications already submited by engineers for a large drydock in the Brooklyn Navy Yard indicate that such a dock can be built at this place at a minimum cost. The construction of this dock will be strongly urged by the committee.
