S. NAVY'S TWO BIGGEST DIRIGIBLES Los Angeles Going to Caribbean and Either Europe or Honolulu; Shenandoah South Washington, Jan. 6-A busy six months has been mapped out by the Navy Department for the air liner Los Angeles, with flights that will take her to the Caribbean Sea district and either to Europe or Honolulu, while, beginning in March, her naval sister, the Shenandoah, will have a scarcely less active time of it. A schedule for the two dirigibles drawn up by the Department, with the tender Patoka to be used as the mooring ship in the flights, will send the Los Angeles on a flight from her Lakehurst hangar to Bermuda the latter part of February. Flights to San Juan, Porto Rico and the Canal zone will follow in the next three months.

Decision between Europe and Honolulu will be reached in the meantime for the long flight to be undertaken in May or June. Shenandoah Off on March 22. With the helium supply by then permitting operation of both craft simultaneously, the Shenandoah will leave for Southern waters on March 22 to operate in maneuvers with the ships there. The Los Angeles schedule has been arranged with a view to determining the practicability of dirigible operation commercial basis, with plans for a strict cost accounting on the flights. By the agreement under which the German-built craft came to the United States, she cannot be used, as can the Shenandoah, in connection with the study of naval problems.

ARCHBISHOP OF CINCINNATI DIES Cincinnati, Ohio, Jan. 6-Archbishop Henry Moeller, fourth Bishop of Cincinnati and the third to attain metropolitan rank since the creation of the diocese approximately 100 years ago, died last night at his residence in Norwood Heights. Like his saintly predecessors, the venerable prelate was active in "the business of the Father" to the last and death claimed him after a day spent in active service. Those in attendance at his bedside when the end came, say he was conscious to the last, listening attentively to the prayers cf the priest in the administration of the last sacrament. The archbishop's death will be a shock in Catholic circles throughout the United States, since the metropolitan of Cincinnati was famed from border to border because of his deep learning, his kindly personality and his untiring efforts in behalf of religious education.

Archbishop Moeller had not been 111 the best of health for several years. Two years ago he suffered an attack of influenza and at the time his life was despaired of. As soon as possible, however, against the advice of his intimate friends, he resumed his duties and insisted upon following a schedule for official visitations and confirmations that would have taxed the efforts of a more robust and younger man.

"FAKE" VICE RAIDS IN SCHENECTADY GO UNDER JURY PROBE Charges That Inmates Were Planted to Be Sifted- Funston in. Charge. By GEORGE E. LYNDON Jr. (Staff Correspondent of The Eagle.) Schenectady, 6-The entire history of Schenectady's war on organized vice, which has just been placed under the direction of Capt.

William H. Funston, veteran Brooklyn police officer, following a violent shakeup in the local department. will be reviewed the January Grand Jury which convenes on the 26th of his month. Capt. Funston arrived here Sunday night and, after surveying the local situation yesterday and today, said he he believed little reorganization of the department would necessary.

He added that apparently there was less crime in the city than he had at first believed. Nevertheless District Attorney Alfred T. Blessing proposes to analyze the long series of events which marked the progress of the vice crusade conducted by Capt. Edward L. Youmans, who was picked from the local department to war on the underworld by Mayor William W.

Campbell. murder on Nov. 28 led to the ousting of Chief of Police James W. Rynex, thereby creating the vacancy which Capt. Funston is filling.

Jury to Probe "Raid." widele of the phases of the crusade will receive the particular attention of the Grand Jury is a raid on disorderly houses in the red light district conducted last May by Detective Sergt. Diamente Ragucci which a Grand Jury and Mayor Campbell branded as a fake. The Mayor said the raid was designed to Youmans. It is charged that Ragucci "planted" women in a house on Edison st. which Youmans had closed up, and then raided the house and arrested the women.

When the evidence in the case presented to a Grand Jury the latter refused to indict the arrested women in spite of the fact all were ready to plead guilty. The Grand Jury did not conduct an investigation to determine why the raid was staged, who paid the women and who authorized the move, nor was any inquiry instituted by Commissioner of Public Safety George E. Ramsey. Youmans' Complaint. Captain Youmans, who personally witnessed the raid, complained bitterly of it among other things in letter addressed to Mayor Campbell on Oct.

9. In this letter Captain Youmans said that he was so hampered by Chief Rynex that it was imthing, and he asked to be relieved of possible for him to a accomplish anyany further part vice war which he had been directing. No official action was taken on the letter. It read in part: "On Jan. 24 I was appointed acting captain of police and have served in this capacity to the best of my ability up to the present time.

Because of difficulties encountered and because I have not received proper backing and support from Chief Rynex in many matters, I respectfully request that I be returned to my former position which I held prior to the appointment. My reasons for requesting this are: "11-Some time ago I received complaints from worthy citizens against the hotel at Henry and Albany sts. This is a public drinking place and is under suspicion as a house of I informed Chief Rynex of these complaints. He advised me to pay no attention to them, and short time later directed that policing of the hotel in question be stoppedon different occasions the ordered Motor Policemen Quinlivan and Flynn to cease patroling Edison where I had detailed them for duty between the hours of 4:30 and 5:15 daily. The Chief stated he did not want them there because they could not do any good on that street.

Tells of Raid. "3-While on duty May 20, covering my district with Patrolman William McNeil, I saw Detective Sergeant Ragucci and other officers armed with warrants and under direct orders from Chief Rynex raid several places on Edison ave. They arrested several persons on vagrancy other charges. They saw me in the street but said nothing to me concerning the matter. Furthermore, was not informed of the proposed raid by the Chief.

has been my practice to patrol Edison ave. between 4:30 and 5:15 o'clock, since the Chief allows me but one patrolman and two are required. On two occasions the Chief has advised and virtually ordered that I leave the district during this period and go to upper State st. "5. The following is a part of one conversation between myself and the Chief on one occasion: 'I hear you go to places on Edison ave.

two or three times a he said. 'I I replied. 'Well you can't work that way. Those people own the property (meaning the resort keepers); what are they going to do with The letter then goes on to tell how Youmans was subjected to petty persecutions of a character not unknown to other police departments. He was sent to outlying stations, for one thing, which necessitated his traveling two hours each day to and from headquarters to report.

Letter Kept Secret. A man who had aided Youmans in the preparation of this letter asked Mayor Campbell would divulge its contents, and "the Mayor refused to do so, explaining that it was trivial and not worthy of notice. Certainly the letter appeared to have no effect on the vice crusade as conducted by Youmans. On Nov. 24.

Albert Spring, former football' player. and brother of a. Schenectady policeman, was stabbed to death by a degenerate Sicilian, who escaped. Spring had gone to the aid of two young women who were being annoyed by the man. This happened in a good section of the city containing 40,000 persons and policed only 16 officers.

Youmans pleaded for more men. There was a considerable hubbub in city council, but little came of it. Then, on Nov. 28. while Youmans was walking through Edison st.

he was shot to death by an assassin in ambush, who emptied both barrels of a shotgun, loaded with buckshot. into the officer's body. As far as the outside world was concerned the underworld's war on organized society in Schenectady began at this point. Actually very little happened after the shooting other than several spectacular moves bv Mayor Campbell which focused public attention generally on the situation. NEW CHURCH PLANNED.

DEMPSEY TO FIGHT IN EAST IN SUMMER Battle May Occur in Henderson's L. I. City Bowl. Dan McKettrick, well-known fight promoter, who is connected with Charles L. Henderson in the prorosed erection of a fight arena in Long Island City, said in a speech to large audience at the Queens Chamber of that Jack Dempsey would East this Commerce, summer.

He intimated that the fight would be held in the proposed New Henderson Bowl, ground for which broken yesterday at Van Alst ave, and No. Jane Long Island City. Charles L. Henderson, owner of Henderson's Bowl, in Brooklyn, turned the first spadeful of earth on the proposed site of the new arena. The bowl will seat more than 100,000 persons.

John H. McCooey, Democratic leader of Brooklyn; Judge Bernard Vause and Prof. W. H. Yates spoke favorably in regard to the proposed bowl and said it would be a great boost for the Long Island City section of Queens.

The site is adjacent to all car lines and to both the B. M. T. and I. R.

T. subways from all points of Manhattan. The erection of the arena is expected to start some time in March. MRS. M.

H. BRISBANE, POET, DIES. New Orleans. Jan. 6-Mrs.

Brisbane of New York. BIG SNOWFALL COST CITY OVER $1,200,000 FOR REMOVAL WORK Truckmen's Bureau's Charge of "Botching Job" by Commissioner Taylor.

With week of hard work remaining to clear the city of all traces of Friday's storm, Commissioner Taylor, of the Street Cleaning Department, estimated the total cost of 151.500 $1,500,000. heavy snowfall at $1,200,00.0 to The 18,000 snow shovelers are now engaged principaly in the task of removing the EnOW, practically all streets in the three boros having been cleared and opened to traffic. Commissioner Taylor today characterized as unjustified the charges of the Merchant Truckmen's Bureau that the department bad botched its work. In a letter to Mayor Hylan, Thomas F. Barry, executive secretary of the Truckmen's Bureau, declared that the snow removal work "was done with a view to pleasing those who drive pleasure cars and for the particular benefit of the bus lines and street railways.

Fifth ave. today and, in fact, yesterday was as clean as the proverbial whistle. So were other thoroughfares often in the public eye. The waterfront, however, South and West sts. and crosstown thoroughfares leading to both streets were and are an absolute disgrace to New York City." Taylor Denies Discrimination.

In replying to this Commissioner Taylor declared there had been no such discrimination. "We have the city divided into districts and the districts into sections," he said, "and we move at the same time in every part of the city. Naturally, however, we have to concentrate on the main arteries leading to the bridges. "As far as the market section is concerned, we realize its importance, but that is by necessity a night job. The congestion there was too great for us to move in our and apparatus during business hours." Today the work of collecting garbage, which had been practically suspended for three days because of the emergency created by the storm, was resumed.

It was estimated that by tonight the cleanup of refuse would be beyond the possible danger point. Daniel Gutman, chairman of the East New York Civic League, today sent a letter to Boro President Guider protesting against delay in clearing Sutter ave. of the snow. The letter says in part: "It may not have come to your attention that after all the gide streets had been cleared of snow, Sutter an important business thoroughfare one of the main arteries for traffic in East New York, was allowed to remain in a condition which rendered it dangerous to both pedestrians and vehicles." ONE WORD AFTER ANOTHER By NUNNALLY JOHNSON No Matter What You Think en Any Subject There is an Organization Covering That Field -as, for Instance, the Anti-Horsethief Association. UDGING from the list of izations listed in the 1925 Eagle Almanac, which will be ready for publication there isn't an evangel in the country, whether social, religious, reform, or ethical, that hasn't its society.

No matter what you feel about anything, there is an organization covering that field, and you may join and help spread its gospel. Say, for instance, you don't like horse thieves. It may be that you do, but say you don't, just for the sake of argument. What do you do about it? I will place $10 three ways that; all you do is sit home and jut hate them all alone. Now if you knew the situation at all you would know that there is a National Anti-Horse Thief AssociaI tion which has 40,000 members.

Personally, I had no idea so many people 'hated horse thieves. Certainly I don't. I don't like them, but I don't actually hate them. It is strange to me that anybody should be energetic enough against them to organize like this. There is an International Society for Personal Identification, which in all probability does something very useful for every one of its members, but the value simply doesn't appear in title.

A man is ordinarilyexcepting New Year's Eve--able to identify himself. Besides, he can always look in the telephone book. There is World Purity Federation, with 40,000 members anxious to make the world pure. De gustibus (Latin) non est disputandum. Personally, I'd rather belong to the United States Hay Fever Association, where you can meet a lot of swell up-and-coming young hay fever patients.

Never lonesome then, you know. One of the strangest of the organizations is the Sanctity of Marriage Association, or Association for Upholding the Sanctity of Marriage. Two ministers of New Jersey are listed as governing it. Its strangeness lies in the methods which these two ministers use in prosecuting its aims. How, one wonders, can two ministers in New Jersey have much control in the Bronx? In what way can the society help an uncertain couple in Corsicana, Texas? Suppose one of its scouts rushes in with news of an eminent case.

All signs, he reports, indicate the probability of an infraction of the rules. What, in such a case, do the ministers do? The list discloses that there are people seriously enough interested in the short ballot to organize a national association, the National Short Ballot Organization. There are others, or perhaps the same, who just feel so dandy and want everybody else to wear a smile and have a cheery word for everybody and look on bright side of things and every cloud has a silver lining and. it is never so bad that organized a National Optimist Club. And 50,000 members attest to the seriousness with which a onecent postage is wished.
