(Attain 043 Fifth Ave. Hw vAKMiutiu N6w York City ANTAGONISM AMONG SUBWAY ADVOCATES Utica and Nostrand Line Par-tisans Should Get Together. Editor Brooklyn Daily Eagle: "Rarely Is a suggestion with or without merit advanced for the betterment of transit conditions in Brooklyn but strenuous opposition is heard immediately, and before all the interested parties have reconciled their differences or the measure been defeated, the money that might have been available for the purpose has been diverted to other sections of the city where public opinion Is more harmonious." So declared John H. Delaney, chairman of the Board of Trans portation, at a certain public hearing, and the champions of the respective claims for official recog nition of plans for subways under Nostrand ave.

and Utica ave. are running true to form in assailing each other cause. Each group in this verbal and newspaper engagement denies any competition in the two projects, but forthwith proceeds to marshal such apparently good reasons why the roud sponsored by the other party snoum not have priority consider tion, that when both cases are in it would appear as if the interests or the public at larg would be bet ter served If neither were built. This impression would be wrong and most unfortunate. The thought, however, does not seem to occur to these people that united action might be possible, with their interests pooled, resulting in earlier official consent, construction of both roads, at reduced expense and with important mutual advantages.

Let us look at the facts from an unprejudiced point of view. The Nostrand ave. branch of the I. R. system has but two tracks, and if the statement of Mr.

Delaney is to be accepted, during rush hours, has reached its carrying capacity. A normal increase in population in the district affected would make this situation more acute and, therefore, any suggestion of extending the trackage several more miles to the south would not appeal to good judgment, unless means could be discovered for diverting part of this added load. There Is no known opposition to the route given publicity, under Utica until Flatbush ave. is reached. At that point a spur has been planned to follow Avenue west and thence south by way of Nostrand or Bedford ave.

to Sheeps-head Bay. This arm of the road would furnish means of rapid transportation to future Marine Park and that great area of adjacent ter ritory now depending on busses. This service would be physically im- possiDie lor tne Nostrand ave. line with an extended to render. Another feature of the Drotiosed Utica ave.

route, but a side issue in this present discussion, none the less of substantial importance, would be tne probable continuation of this route south, following Flatbush ave. from the Junction of this highway witn utica to the Bennett Flying Field and the Rockaway Ferry, making tnese points accessible for this class of traffic, a convenience that will be demanded in the immediate future. Returnlne to the Sheensheod Bnv terminal as here described: If the Nostrand ave. line was extended south so as to intersect the Utica branch at Avenue and make use of these tracks to ShcensheaH nv the problems now confronting the construction of the former might be solved and several advantages shared ay an concerned. The traveling public, by this arrangement, from Sheepshead Bay and surrounding area could use the easterly branch with its local or express service to Brooklyn, Eastern District or upper Manhattan, making better time and avoiding the crush in the Fulton shopping district, or could by way ui nie westerly route reach downtown Brooklyn or lower Manhattan The traffic would be thus divided.

icuucmg me pressure on th No. strand ave. route and creating an uimvaieu metnoa oi transit, as far as this borough may be considered. JOHN J. SNYDER.

17, 1929. Country Workers' Claims To Accident Compensation Editor Brooklyn Daily Eagle: Our civil law seems unjust to poor people. It leaves no basis of Just interpretation but for lawyers to argue. Money is might and law. One cannot iirnore thp nnfnirn In a certain chapter of the- Workmen's Compensation Law of the State of New York, in which no provision Is made for compensation to workers employed on farms, or to domestic help In private families enjoying the summer In the country.

It seems fair to think that those who can afford to keeD serv ants, to do the work for them, should De obliged by law to have them insured against accidents while performing their duties, pay for loss of time, medical and surgical fees, instead of discharging and leaving them to the mercy of Illness and poverty. They are usually too Door to pay a lawyer for help to get their rights, and, for that matter, a lawyer would not take a case of this kind as it must be proven beyond doubt that the accident was an accident and not carelessness, and that can never be proved In such cases as these, on account of lack of funds. is this provision in the Code omitted purposely because the majority of the lawmakers at Albany are lawyers, who have no occasion to employ mechanics and laborers but might hire domestic help in their homes? The State Comuensa- tlon Law provides for help for workers while performing their duties whether an accident harwns by negligence or otherwise.

19 The Pocono Manor winter sports season Is now at Its height, with many alluring activities. Possibly the most attractive leature, so Jar this year, was the arrival before Christmas of Asle Seppala, the Canadian dog mustier with his string of 11 dogs. Under the direction of the winter sports director and skiing expert, James Chumsas, many activities are being enjoyed. The Pocono Manor ice hockey team is one of the leading teams this year In the Pocono Mountain Ice Hockey League and has had a very successful season up to the present time.

The distances are: Men's, one-half mile; ladies, one-quarter mile; boys, one-quarter mile, and girls, one-eighth mile.

Parkes Cadman makes an ample gesture by issuing a challenge for any one to show a single statement or act by himself or the Federal Council that was encouragement to bigotry in the campaign. As far as i Know tnere seems little call for such a challenge since no issue was made of such a point. They are therefore welcome to the security of their present position. If one were to find any fault on such a score, It would be based not so much on any explicit statement or any act but rather on the absence of any statement to discourage and the omission or any act to stay the de plorable, un-American spirit. There were such statement from men like the Rev.

Dr. Henry van Dyke and Rabbi Wise and many of our dally newspapers Joined in the activity of the magazines in condemning such a spirit. It would not have been too much, therefore, to have expected that an organization which professes to devote itself to the development of Christian unity should have taken positive steps to discourage sucn a spirit in the mem bers of its constituency This, how ever, is apart from the issue. Dr. Cadman's statement in concluding his interview with your reporter will come as a distinct surprise to those who know the details of the matter question as well as to all those who have long held him in well merited esteem.

The reverend doc tor is reported to have said that the whole matter Is not worth tak ing notice of." Now "the whole matter" of which there is question here come down to these points: First, the letter of Robert E. Hicks, president of the Robert E. Hicks Corporation in South Whitney, addressed to Dr. s. Parkes Cadman.

as Dresldent of the Federal Council of Churches in America; second, Dr. Cadman's reply to Mr. Hlck3' letter, and last of all, my answer to a request for a personal comment on Dr. Cadman's reply to Mr. Hicks.

In my most ambitious mements I could not imagine that the doctor considered my expression of personal opinion as "the whole matter" and consequently I feel that he included the letter of Mr. Hicks as well as his own reply to it as part of the matter. My characterization of Dr. Cadman's reply to Mr. Hicks' letter as "an exa-slon and a subterfuge" may sound harsh and for that reason I offer the following explanation.

It will be necessary to consider briefly the main issues in Mr. Hicks' letter and the reply made to it by Dr. Cadman. Mr. Hicks, formerly a generous contributor, stated in his letter to Dr, Cadman that he would give no further aid to the Federal Council of Churches because the organization which he formerly considered "a real development toward the Christian unity" was, in his mind, being built up into "a powerful organization that will be able successfully to battle another branch of the Christian faith," Surely such a charge coming from a prom-inant Protestant layman, apart from the reflection it cast on the orgaizatlon of which Dr.

Cadman has been a leader, deserves a reply. Yet no mention was made of it in Dr. Cadman's answer. It seems as though it was "worth taking notice of It." The above statement of Mr. Hicks was based on the spectacle presented, not by individual laymen, but by the Protestant ministry during the campaign.

To the mind of Mr. Hicks this spectacle was a "significant" thing. It indicated "a forgetting of what the Church was built to do and an unholy lust for a temporary power of a political nature." The charge was aimed, therefore, against the Protestant ministry, of which Dr. Cadman Is a distinguished member. And It was not answered by disclaiming responsibility "for individual acts of bigotry or unfortunate speeches by men of the Protestant churches." It was distinctly specified as a "significant" thing by his correspondent and yet was not given consideration.

If this is not evasion I have misunderstood the term. In his reply Dr. Cadman stated that the Council has not been guilty of any word or act which might be interpreted as an encouragement of bigotry. He disclaimed responsibility for Individual cases. Neither of these points covers the main charges In Mr.

Hicks' letter. Therefore I characterized the reply as an "evasion." Furthermore Dr. Cadman ended by saying that he did not think "these acts and soeeches were confined to either side." This I considered a "subterfuge." If anv further Justification were needed I would seek it in the opinion of the reverend doctor which dismisses the "whole matter" as "not worth taking notice of." J. A. GREELEY.

S.J. Brooklyn, Jan. 16. Physicians' Fee Changes; A Layman's Suggestion Editor Brooklj-n Daily Eagle: In last Saturday's Issue of The Eagle I noticed an Item saying that the medical doctors of this community were considering increasing their fee from $3 to $5 for a visit to a patient's house, and to $3 for i patient's visit to the physician office. The present method of paving doctor should be changed; he kiould be paid only when he makes good, as with any other worker.

Did you ever do any work for a doctor? I have. He surely wants his money's worth, and unless he Is satisfied you do not get paid. They are worth money when they show Intelligence in the work they are doing. WILLIAM HARRISON. Brooklyn, Jan.

BRADY'S SIXTY-TWO YEARS AS A SALESMAN Editor Brooklyn Daily Eagle: In the Sunday Eagle Magazine of Jan. 13 I saw an article written by Cyrilla P. Landner on the "Oldest Traveling Salesman." In the investigation of 189 cities the investigators should have looked further.

Here in your own boro lives William G. Brady, of 607 Macon now in his 85th year, who has traveled 62 years in New York State, and for only two firms. He is without doubt the longest- traveled salesman in this State and probably in the whole United States and while he has not visited foreign countries, he goes one peg better than William P. McCormick. There is probably no other man living who can boast of 62 years over one railroad with never an accident and never a free pass.

I think that the National Traveling Salesmen's Foundation of New York should have Mr. Brady's record at the top line. He can tell of a room so cold that the water froze in the pitcher, of rooms where a fire was never heard of, then of a grate, then a sheet-iron stove, then the "Baltimore heater" heat, then furnace heat, hot water, hot air. He can tell of patch-work quilts giving way to lamb's wool and down quilts. He can tell of breakfasts of "flap-jacks" and coffee yielding to the finest morning meal an epicure could demand.

Mr. Brady served through the Civil War. He married, and he and Mrs. Brady were popular contestants In Ths Brooklyn Dally Eagle's contest of Longest Married Couples, having been married at that time over 62 years. Don't you think that William P.

McCormick and William G. Brady should shake hands over the ups and downs of the traveling salesman? And don't you think that The Brooklyn Daily Eagle should be proud of a man with Mr. Brady's record as a reader of The Brooklyn uauy lor over 40 years? And now, Mr. Gannett, as neither Dad nor I hear any too well over the phone, if you wish to see this 62-year traveling salesman send a reporter to our home and I will show the gentleman in question up. FLORENCE H.

BRADY. Brooklyn, Jan. 14. Joshua's Extra Daylight Editor Brooklyn Daily Eagle: Because the earth turns toward the sun in the morning and away from the sun in the afternoon, I suggested that it was the earth that stopped revolving to elve Joshua more time and light to com plete nis victory. Mr.

Taylor, one of your cor respondents, questions that proposition. He says that the energy required for such an operation would be minions and millions of horse poweran extravagant amount of power for such a purpose. When God wants to ston a world He does not use horsepower at all. He speaks. "The word of the Lord is powerful." "What!" some one says, "a world stopped by a word? Incredible!" Wait a minute.

Last month a man on Long Island controlled a nying airplane while he stood on the ground. This was done by radio. He made that airplane go fast, slow, turn, dip and come to the ground. Also, read this irom The Eagle. Jan.

10: "A train that Immediately obeyed spoken orders was a development exhibited by Dr. E. E. Free. 'Now go spoken into the microphone caused the electric locomotive to race around its circular track.

'Stop' spoken into the microphone brought it to a halt. 'Now reverse' caused the locomotive to pursue an opposite course around the rails." If a man's voice through radio onn stop an airplane and an electric locomotive then it is not incredible that the Almighty can stop a delicately balanced world through radio or some other power. "He spake, and it was done. He commanded, and it stood last." Psalm H. J.

LATHAM. Police and Firemen's Pay Editor Brooklyn Dally Eagle: There is a bill before the Legislature (introduced by Senator A. J. Kennedy of Queens and Assemblyman John Remer of Manhattan) which permits the people of New York City to decide a question of the wages to be paid our patrolmen and firemen after three to five years of service. The bill is Senate Print No.

5 and Assembly Print No. 20. It is unnecessary to tell about the duties we impose on our uniformed protectors nor the fact that all surrounding cities Jersey City, Newark, Yonkers, Mount Vernon, New Rochelle pay policemen and firemen the same salary given to New York City policemen and firemen without requiring them to do the same work nor to give the same hours to their perilous duty. I find the people of my district almost unanimous for the bill. The amount of salary which the people will have an opportunity to vote on if the Kennedv-Remer bill Is passed, namely $3,000, should be considered in the light of the very long hours, the great risks, the unusual liability for personal damages, the purchase of equipment and the fact that the city, prohibits earning any additional wages in the few leisure hours.

WILLIAM O'REILLY. Alderman, 38th A. D. Brooklyn, Jan. 16.

Who Pays for" tha Linen? Editor Brooklyn Dally Earle: Several months ago I was Informed that a laundry which It had been my practice to patronize had boen totally destroyed In a fire which swept the plant. In line with Instructions of their representative, I submitted a list of the articles lost and was advised that a speedy settlement would be made. About three months passed and I did not receive an acknowledgment of my claim, whereupon I wrote the corporation and received a reply from a firm of attorneys statliiff that "My client Instructs me to advise you that It carried no Insurance on the laundry In the premises occupied by it which were destroyed by fire and that there Is no liability on Us part." While the material loss Is not an especially important one, there Is a more Important consideration that of business ethics. I would very much like to know whether the forejolnct concern Is liable In the eyes of the law. Is It possible that it can, with one fell swoop, clear Itself ol all responsibility by Issuing a statement to the effect that it did not carry any Insurance on the laundry lost? Can any modern concern dismiss Its rcsnonslbtllttcs so lightly? Mrs.
