WDmen can be depended upon never to lose sight of the human equation. Is it not a fact that most men of political prominence -whose names The native way of making ice In India is by evaporation. A shallow pit about two feet long is dug and dry straw placed on the bottom. Shallow earthen pans, very porous, are set in the straw, filled with boiling water, and left out through a calm night when the temperature is coolest. During the winter months ice forms if there is no dew.

The modern way making ice in India is just as it is made in Knick-erbocker's 27 plants in the Metropolitan district ior it was Afr.

Knickerbocker ICE Company DOCTORS HERE HAIL X-RAY RELIEF FOR WHOOPING COUGH Boston Physicians Report on Discovery Indorsed by Boro Specialists. Brooklyn specialists of high stand ing in the treatment ot children's diseases, as well us eminent X-Kay specialists were much impressed today with the news from Boston that Dr. Henry I.

Hon ditch and Dr. Ralph D. Ieonard had noted marked improvement in the treatment of whooping cough by the use of the X-ray. Tho Boston men have observed this improvement In -6 cases of whooping cough, the patients ranging in age from 3 months to -10 years. Seventy percent of the caces they havo classified as "relieved" and small prcentage as cured.

Dr. Carles Kastmond, who is di rector of the X-ray department of the Carson C. Peck Memorial Hospital and the Beth Moses Hospital, and Dr. Legrand Kerr, well known as an authority on children's diseases, said that a grent deal of credence should be placed in anything that Dr. Bow-: ditch said because he is a man of the highest reputation and standing, well i known here.

"Dowditch is a safe and sane man." Bald Dr. Kerr, "and I would put a lot of credence in what he says. I can see where the treatment i may be of much benefit in relieving the enlargement of certain glands along the bronchial tube, and indi- i rectlv relieving the whooping cougn by lessening the pressure," said Dr. Kerr. "Dr.

iiowuuch is a specialist in children's diseases and anything that he says ta entitled to serious consideration." Dr. Kastmond spoke in a similar ein. Dr. Bowditch." said he, "is a man of the same high reputation as Dr. Glentworth Butler here.

Two weeks ago I met Dr. A. George, with whom Dr. Leonard is associat- in Boston, and he told mo some thing about till: treatment. He told me that Leonard is a reputable, reliable and conservative man.

There is no question but that there is something to it. I understand that the course of the disease is shortened, the time cut down about 50 percent. I was so much impressed with Dr. fleorge's account of it that I appealed to some of the children's societies here to supply me wdth patients so that I might test it, but I did not meet with a very en couraging response. "My idea is that certain glands which become, enlarged so that an irritation is caused which sets up a cough are diminished in size by the ray treatment and the pressure and the cough relieved."

FEAR LOST COTTON MAY BE INFECTED Three hundred bales of Kgyptian long staple cotlon are afloat in New York Harbor and the Department ot Agriculture has issued a notice that if any of this cotton is found un-salvagcd it is to be immediately reported to the Collector of the Port. Harry B.

Shaw, pathologist in charge of the Federal Horticultural Bureau. United States Department of Agri culture, said today that this cotton was part of the consignment of 1.377 bales which was upset in New York Harbor Sunday. What the Agricultural officers fear that this cotton may contain the pink boll worm which might infect the American cotton crop. Shaw is artul that these 377 bales may fall Into the hands of people who will sell them to junk dealers and that in this way the cotton may get into theinterior of the United States. "It is a very serious thing," said Mr.

Shaw, "to permit this cotton to enter the country, and the earnest co-operation of all shipping people along the waterfront is earnestly re-f uested." BURTON'S RECORDS IN P.O.

In my humble opinion you have -elected an ideal site for the location your proposed building, especially since it is so easily accessible from different parts of the city and also niovs the prestige of being in a par ticularly digntlied residential section. 'It is seemingly reasonable to ex pect that the Knights of Columbus the gnat diocese of nrooKiyn should have one central and representative building, commensurate with the prominent and extensive in- lluence which your great organization legitimately seeks to exercise in ints nourishing Catholic community. I may add that my opinion in this matter has been tormuiaieu, not only hy a regard for the successful levelopment of your Illustrious order, but also by a serious concern for the advancement of Catholic interests in the Diocese of Hrooklyn.

Prop erty Assured, Brophy States To Build $2,000,000 Home Over .000 Brooklyn Klks us sembled in the of Music last night at a special meeting of the lodge and enthusiastically received the. information from Albert Tyler Brophy. chairman of the Klks build ing and site committee, that the plot for their $2, clubhouse has been selected to take the place of the present Klks home on S. Oxford which has outgrown the present membership of the organization. The site secured for the building picas tires feet on Livingston 1S6 feet on Roc rum pi.

and 158 feet on Schermerhorn about a block from the first Klks home at 123 Schermerhorn st. The plot is to cost about I6OU.U00. he plot covers 28, 000 square feet nnd takes in the property of the Hrookiyn Association for Improving the conditions of the Poor. 104 Ltv ingston and all the buildings be low to Boerum the building along fctoerum pi. and those, uu Schermer horn including tho dwellings and the shop at the rear of 104 Livings ton st.

Included in the parcels arc five dwellings in Schermerhorn which was purchased cbout two years ago by Thomas A. Clarke, builder of a number of the large theaters in the boro. nnd it was general) be lieved at tho time that Mr. Clarke secured the property for a theater site. 'While that deal for the purchase of tne property or the Brooklyn Asso elation for Improvement- of the ondition of the 1'oor has not been consummated, we have agreed to take tho property at the price iisKcrj, said Mr.

Hrophy in discuss ing the plot assembled bv tlie Klks. He expressed the opinion that the matter ot securing the parcel would be up in a few days. Discussing the present status of the negotiations of the Brooklyn Association for Improvement of the Condition of the Poor with the Klks. Dr. M.

C.

The announcement in The Kagle on Tuesday evening in- ncaimg the location of the plot Iped to increase the gathering. nd the general satisfaction with the work of the building and sites committee was manifested in the manner in which the report was received. The difficulties encountered by the omnuttee in selecting a site which ou id be generally approved, and its limitations in providing one which would meet with the nrimc I requisites, namely, accessibility, tran- i accommodations and area, were familiar to most of the membership, nd the outcome of the committee ndnsrrv was eagerly anticipated by he memners.

Among the eites considered bv tlm committee were the Clarendon Hotel, the Bijou Theater at Smith and a site facing the Academy of in Lafayette a plot on Willoughby, Bridge und Duffield 4th ave. and Pacific 6th ave. and St. Mark's a plot on Kiistcrn Parkwsy near the Brook- yn Mustiem and one near the pres ent Klks' Club on S.

Oxford st. Fach location was given thoughtful con sideration and studied from every ngle, Mr. lirophy slated in his re port. Future ixpansion of the Klks aid the growth of the boro were weighed in the process of elimination and guided their action. It was generally felt by the ommittee that the average Klk fa vored a downtown location, some where near Boro Hall, just as in the old days whore friendrs met at lunch nearly every day.

The committee in making a choice to meet this demand, found many obstacles in tcrjuiring a plot of sufficient size to provide for the building they con templated which would be appro priate to the standing of Brooklyn odge in national Flkdom. Then there was the financial problem of securing options on property they de- ired, not to mention the possibility of their plans leaking out and pro hibitive prices asked for parcels re quired to complete the plot. Because of the present riemnnd for plottage the Boro itall Section, the most uarded secrecy in the operations of he committee had to be i observed to prevent leakage and a possible jump in valuations for buildings needed. The history of the workings of the committee recited by Mr. Brophy, showed 1 hat he greatest ob- c.l es were en co ered i assem Ming the plot finally acquired.

One parcel was held by a woman, who for sentimental reasons refused for a long while to sell her property. It had been her home for years, she said, and only after long and persistent argument on the part of the com mittee did she finally assent. It developed in the report of the building and sile committee that the trucfure planned for he plot will he one of the best equipped Klks' homes in the I'nited States. It will he exclusively an Klks' home, it was stated, and not a combination hotel nnd clubhouse as some of the Klks uihlings. It will be about 10 stories high, and designed in a style of ar- hitoeturo in Jmrniony with the ne Court House and other large down town struct ii res.

It will have swimming pool, the largest indoor pool in the city; a gymnasium, sev- I bowl in it 1U vs. an auditorium md lodge room with a seating pmity of 2.500. basketball court. handball court, and running rack. There will be a large dining room nd grill, lounging rooms, card rooms ami severul floors devoted to leeping rooms.

IN REORGANIZATION Radical Change May Be Made When New Company Takes Over Old Properties. Iteorganization of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company will produce a new company with a new name.

The conferring of a new name upon the system, it became known today may not be the simple process of making a minor alteration such as changing the word "company" to "corporation." It is quite possible and not altogether improbable, that a complete and radical departure will be made, with the abandonment of the words, "Brooklyn Kapid Transit." It is somewhat of a tradition that. in railroad receiverships anil reor ganizations in thiS country, the new company emerges as a "railway" Instead of a "railroad." In the cast of tho B. ft. T. it has been generally assumed in the financial district that the new company which is to be chartered to take over the properties will retain the H.

K. T. initials that have been familiar to traveling pun-lie, and the financial markets since the company was incorporated in 380ti. The B. It.

T. reorganization, how-over, is to be more than a re-christening of the company; The whole financial structure is being altered, and there will not only be new securities but new classes of securities. Mortgages of constituent companies of the system are being foreclosed, and the B. K. T.

properties, Including power plants and securities of subsidiary corporations. will bo sold at foreclosure. These will bo acquired, when offered at public sale under the direction of fhe Federal Court in Manhattan, by the new company that is to be organized, and which is being referred to for the present as "the successor corporation." One of the reasons for consider ing a radical change in name is the completeness of the reorganization of the company's financial structure. Then, too, the B. It.

T. is no longer strictly Brooklyn system, for it now runs through the heart of Manhattan und into Queens. Its geographical character has changed since it was incorporated. Subway signs now put the stress on the 'Broadway Subway." and the ini tials. B.

ft. are placed in paren thesis. A name that would retain the intials and still change the name ould readily be found by adopting the "Broadway" idea, and calling the system the "Broadway Uapid Transit." That, however, would be very limited us a description of the company. One of the questions to be decided in the selection of a name is whether the old name, B. K.

has sufficient good will attaching to it to make it real asset. While B. It. T. is fa miliar to the public the system would probably "smell as sweet" if Shakespeare may be dragged in under any other name.

The attitude of the average trial jury toward the old K. H. T. might be worth con sideration, too. Tho decline in the stock of the B.

It. T. to below $7 a share in the fort night has attracted attention in Wall Street, and is assumed to be due to tho unloading of stockholders who do not wish to pay the $3o a share ssessment. The work of organizing a syndi cate of underwriters to take care of the $35 a share payment in cases where stockholders fail to pay. under way.

According to reports in the Street today, the Chase Securities Corporation and Hayden, Stone ifc Co. will be the principal under writers. If any stockholder fails to pay the $35, receiving new securities of the new company in return, his interest in the company will be wiped out absolutely. To retain his interest he must accept the securities of the new company that is to be organized, SENATE MINORITY WILL SUPPORT OWN PRIMARY MEASURE Albany, March 8 Republican Senators will oppose the Walker direct primary measure, the 8-hour day and minimum wage for women proposals and the repeal of the mo tion picture censorship law, Senator Clayton 11, Lusk, minority leader, announced last night at the close nf a lengthy conference at which pend ing legislation was discussed. Thft Republican minority will support its compromise bill instead of the Walker metisure, but.

The Hepublican direct primary measure provides for selection of or ganization candidates at conventions and increases the requirements un der which independent candidates may enter the lists. 2-YEAR-OLD SUES FATHER FOR LIBEL Til onlv lihol suit on record in which iin infant sotkh to collr-ct damages from liia father was called by Justice Lewis in Supremo Court today and will lie reached for trial within a day or so.

IIstrikeJ sCIGARETTE (jtolllj) WALDMAN HEADS JEWISH CHARITIES FEDERATION IN BORO The board of directors of the Brooklyn Federation of Jewish Charities at a meeting last evening at the Unity Club elected Morris D. Waldman, a well-known social work- executive director to succeed Max Abelman, who recently retired.

The st lection of Waldman for this office is in line with the policy of the man agers of Federation to strengthen the organization, increase its funds and enlarge the scope of its activities. Unrintr the past year a compre hensive fund-raising organization has been established, known as the one plan. IT embraces district of tices located in the various sections of Brooklyn through which 2,000 vol unteer workers have been enlisted. Morris I. Waldman.

Durinir the month of February, in spired by the example of such lead ers as Aaron William Levy, president: Judge Iazansky, Dr. Schloc- kow, Judge Lewis, Judge Mitchell Mav. Judge Oeismar, Nathan Jonas, Walter N. Rothschild, more than 1.000 new members have been en rolled. The goal set for Brooklyn is 50,000 members; the annual object ive $1,000,000.

This will mean more than twice as largo a membership as at present, and nearly three times the annual income. Mr. Waldman is in thorough sym pathy with tlie zone plan. He be lieves that it is the most practical way of reaching the widely scattered elements of the Jewish population in this boro and thus securing their active support. At the present time, with an estimated Jewish population in Brooklyn of at least half a mil lion, the per capita annual contribution does not exceed 80 cents a year.

In Manhattan and the Bronx it is $3.50. A pioneer in charities federation, Mr. Waldman has spent the greater part of his life, since graduation from New York University, 3898, in social work. He became widely known as the "ualveston Movement, of the Jewish Immigrants' Informa tion Bureau in Texas, popularly known as the Galveston Movement in 1907. This work, financed by Jacob It.

Schiff, dealt with the prob lem of settling many thousands of immigrants in the ar west.

He was attended by Dr. t'ummings of the M. K. Hos-j pital and remained at homo. hi appear in the press are office hold- rrs or job seekers?" "See is (he Says Miss Vat- B.

See the limit," was tin romment of Miss May Tutterson Assistant District Attorney. "Whn did he come from? It was just iuck that he was cut out for a man. Didn he have a mother? What has he ever done that is loftv and patriotic to civo him the ritrht to say tnat women never go into politics for such motives? I notice he has never piven an elevator to any person or institution. Has ho cvi piven anything to men's collepes t. cause lie disapproved of women's colleges? I wonder if he ever reads when he infers that women ne rr invent anything or are able to comprehend laws.

I suppose his brain is so big that he does not need to tcad for information. I think the best thins to do with Mr. fc is to ipnore him. He accuses women of point? into politics to pet their names tn the newspapers. Ho never pet his name in unless he attacks women.

"Was his business handed to htm? I think it mipht be interest inp to know how much of his success, for he is rated as a millionaire, was due to his own reasoning and inventive power." Miss Louise Zabnskie. Republican co-leader of the 21st A. and prominent in many philanthrope nnd charitable orpanizations. said: "I wish Mr. See could realize how hard women who are honestlv striv ing to help tlv ir political parties with no thoucht of personal ry to keep nut of the newspapers." Mrs.

Jeannette Krill. an active member of the Mndtson Club and a et'irer on psycliolopy, said: "1 think rhnt nuin n-eds a ppycho-nahnt.

From Thnt be says one would infer that hr-thinks he is one nf the few preat men of the world. We who have lust pone thouph the World War all know the part women played, how they were oin the second line of defense and gave their sons and daughters. Lack of loyalty or patriotism cannot be laid at the door of our women. Keally bip men have admitted thai women have improved politics.

Who made the polling places what they are? Women. The reason we hav not produud elevators equal to Mr. See'a is lark of experience. He luia overstepped his boundary when he attacks the intellipenrn and patriotism of women. I don't mind so miK-h what he says about women in politics for it is not worth considering seriously.

In the next 100 years I predict that women will he competing equally with men even in the field of "Foolish Attack" Mrs. Harris. Mrs. Minnie Jean Harris, Democratic of the inth A. comes back at Mr.

See with this: "I am sorry that a man of Mr. Sop's business standing should be using his brains to write such a foolish attack on women. My idea in politics is to do all the pood possible for every body and raise the standards of political education and methods. I be lieve that the majority of women who go into active politics have the same idea. Instead of fewer women's colleges I would have muny more." Mrs.

John V. MeKniirht. Republican of the 2d A. snid: "What I would like to about this would not look well in print. Mr.

Sec is making a grave mistake. He does not understand women and cannot be a happy man if lie is so embittered against them. He certainly is mistaken about the ress of women poinp to Albany on legislation. Has lie, ever been there to see for himself the; type of women who do the lobbying? Besides that would advise Mr. See that high heels have pone out of fashion for some time for all except evening ress, which would not figure, at a legislative hearing."
