It was truly a gorgeous treat. To our great delight, when the cast was announced, we learned Hint Alfred Shirley, who has given us rare treats with his Dickens recitals, was to be Prospero, and that Florence Malone, who knows how to get the meaning from the lines of any play, was to be Miranda mid that the sterling actor, Wright Kramer FTm" 'W TJBL 4 the White the warm On the beautiful lawn, in the shadow of planned this lovely garden spot, where, during Large shade trees will gracefully bend and sway over the entertain guests with tea.

Lieut. Fred Simpson conducted. On this occasion the Monarch Band made its first appearance in concert The program was varied. The following selections were included: Schubert's "Unfinished Symphony," Grand Selection from Gonoud's "Faust," "Echos" ftom the Metropolitan Opera House by Tobanl, "In a Monastery Garden," by Ketelby and Negro spiritual selections arranged for the band by Lieutenant Simpson. Miss Dayse Harding, soprano, was the guest soloist.

Herbert Flnlay, cornet soloist of the band, played "Inflamma-tus" from Rossini's "Stabet Mater." Public Works Commissioner Henry Hesterberg, Democratic loader of Flatbiish. was acclaimed lust night as a trained political executive and loyal Wend at a dinner given In liU honor at the Hotel by James V. Auditore. the well known contractor and a lieutenent of the State committeeman In the Flatbush Democratic Club. The affair, which was limited to 100 guests, resembled In the per sonnel of the diners who gathered In the crystal ballroom of the hotel a meeting of the Board of Estimate and the Kings County Democratic Executive Committee rolled Into one.

Former Senator Kenneth Sutherland presided as toastmaster and Commissioner Hesterberg was lauaea Dy Mayor James J. Walker, Democratic County Leader John H. McCooey, Aldermanic President Joseph V. McKee, Supreme Court Justices James A. Dunne, John B.

Johnston and John L. Walsh, former Special Sessions Justice John J. Freschi. James V. Auditore and Commander Francesco Quatronc.

Praised by O. P. Leaders. A nonpartisan touch was given to the function by the presence of Transit Commissioner Charles C. Lnckwood, Republican leader of the 5th A.

and former Senator J. Henry Walters, who served as majority leader of the Upper House as a Republican member from Syracuse a lew years back. The two O. O. P.

leaders also spoke in laudatory terms of the guest of honor. The affair was one of the most unique political gatherings held In recent years. The 100 political figures present, the majority of them lieutenants In Democratic County Leader McCooey's organization, were men who will play an Important, perhaps a decisive part, in the election of a Mayor this fall. Brooklyn's Part to Be Big. Much of what was said during the period of postprandial oratory was "off the record," but enough was said for publication by close friends of Mayor Walker to Indicate that the Democratic organization headed by Kings County Leader McCooey will be depended upon to provide a substantial part of the majorities to be rolled up for the Democratic- Mayoralty nominee.

Mayor Walker paid tribute to McCooey's capacity for leadership and lauded the organization which he directs. Although no direct references were made to the political character of the function, the various speakers were a unit in declaring that any nomination for any office which Commissioner Hesterberg might de-sire would be his for the asking. There were other rumors that James V. Auditore, the host, would be a receptive candidate for Sheriff next fall. But, as Mayor Walker reminded the 100 political leaders who eat around the horseshoe table, nominations are not decided upon at public dinners.

During the dinner a quartet composed of Boro Secretary John Eavarese, Assistant District Attorney Sylvester 8abbatino, Deputy Register Hyman Shorenstein and Joseph Mayo gave several selections. Professional talent from a Broadway night club also entertained. 500 "MINUTE Mi" IN FAST CARS SEEN CRIME WAVE CURB Gallagher States Method Would Eliminate Auto Bandits; Scores Motorcars. Five hundred "minute men" fully anned and supplied with high-powered motorcars could virtually ride the highway robber off the streets of New York City in six months, in the opinion of Assistant District Attorney Joseph Gallagher, speaking last night at a forum held at the Eastern District Y. M.

C. 179 Marcy ave. In advocating the formation of such a squad, Mr. Gallagher held that the Increased number of highwaymen today led to the general belief that a great crime wave has spread over the country and declared that If this type of criminal could be driven out the "so-called crime wave" would go with them. "The general Impression in the United States is that crime has increased in all its phases and has spread wave-like over the country," Mr.

Gallagher said. "This is a false impression. My study has revealed that actually it has grown only in the number of highway robberies, while there has been very little increase in the number of embezzlements, forgeries and other crimes. It naturally follows that if we eliminate from the category of crime the highway robbery we will no longer suffer from the so-called crime wave. Blames Automobile.

"What the fast horse did for Jesse James the auto Is doing for the modern bandit. The automobile is to blame for the increase of robberies. It has drawn into the field of criminals that class of person who, while he has had no previous criminal record, is willing to commit a crime if he thinks he can make a getaway. "Statistics will show that where the opportunity for escape during the last 15 years has remained the same there has been no increase in the number of crimes. But in the case of highway robbery it is different.

The automobile has made it easy and there has been an instinctive letting down of the bars. The only way we can stop it all Is to fight the criminals In their own way." Register in Paris I'lKle Borraa, Hp (. Paris, April 23. The following have registered at The Eagle Bureau: Mr. and Mrs.

Praising President Hoover's ad dress at the luncheon of the Associated Press as "forceful, frank and appealing," H.

V. Kaltcnborn, assO' elate editor of The Eagle, declared In his current events talk broadcast from Station last night, that he believes the President Intends to make a personal drive to secure the support of the best citizens of the country in law enforcement. "It is Impossible that a President could make such declarations about crime In this country as Mr. Hoover did," the speaker maintained, "with out lt having a tremendous effect. He made it clear that lt was not only lawlessness in relation to Pro hibition to which he referred, but disregard of all law.

This appeal to citizens from the President will ring over the country and have many echoes. Urges Laity on Commission. "I hope that on a commission to investigate means to encourage law enforcement the laity as well as the best minds of the law will be represented. Lawyers are apt to be come so absorbed in the game that they do not help to overcome clr cumlocutions in what should be the straight line of Justice." In this question of law enforcement, Mr. Kaltenborn pointed out, there is a distinct obligation In re spect to the dereliction of men in public office.

Thus, when some unknown patriotic citizen proposed naming these streets for the signers, the signature of McKean was probably taken from a facsimile copy of the Declaration and misread. Though the actual date of the naming of the street does not seem to be recorded, Mr. Weyant notes that Hearne's Brooklyn Directory ol 1850-1 does not Include Keap although lt was indicated as a "laid out" street about that time.

However, Smith's directory for 1854-5 does list Keap st. as one of those "lnterrecting Bedford avenue." so It may be inferred that Keap st. received its name somewhere between 1850 and 1831.

There wa3 a large, enthusiastic audience of friends to greet htm yesterday an audience that filled the boxes and stood many of them In the rear of the hall. But even with such encouragements Gaspare was obviously nervous. On the stage he shifted his feet awkwardly and felt conscious of his hands and his voice seemed at times quite shaky and weak.
