President I'rall was asked todny whether he considered he was violating the bylaws of the Board of Education when he accepted the gift. "I refuse to discuss the matter, was his only comment. According to reports, the presenta-lion was engineered by John J.

Brady, employee In the auditor's office for 24 years, and Frank V. Duly, clerk of the Board of Examiners. Mr. Daly could not be reached to discuss the nintter, but Mr. Brady denied authorship of the plan.

He sold that the Board of Directors of tho Federation, by a big vote, had determined to present the gift. He voted in favor of it. The gift was paid for from the sale of tickets. More than 1.000 persons attended the outing at IS each. It was said today that the Board of Education in executive session had decided to increase Brady' snlnry next year from $2,820 to $3,600.

Three salary Increases for clerks next year were allowed by the board, two of them on recommendation of depart ment offlciuls, but there was no recommendation In the case of Mr. Brady, officials suld.

Officials of the organization were loathe today to discuss the matter but It was pointed out that teachers nnd superintendents are prohibited under the bylaws from receiving presents. The case of Mrs. Grace Rtrachan Forsythe was quoted by officlnls today protesting ngainst the gift. They said that Mrs. Forsythe wns prevented on three occasions from accepting presents from the teachers under the.

bylaw. At first, the matter of giving her money gift wns turned down.

Plttaburg, Sept II Declaring that the ordination of women as ministers of the Gospel would be prejudicial to the best interest of the Church, and "would Increase the occasion for factional scandal and unhappy Satanic church quarreling," the Rev. Dr. Clarence Edward MacArtney, pastor of the Arch Street Presbyterian Church of Philadelphia, discussed recognition of women in the Church before the General Council of the Alliance of Reformed Churches through, out the world here. Dr.

MacArtney said It would tend toward the complete "feminization, and more and more Increase the disposition to throw th whole responsibility of church work upon the women. The Church, in time, would become a sort of women's guild." Dr. MacArtney declared that the record of women as Interpreters and leaders of religious thought wa not an enviable one. Dr. Martin Yeast of Lithuania, an-swering Dr.

MacCartney, said he hoped the views expressed by th Philadelphia minister were his own personal opinion and not that of the Presbyterian and Reformed Churches, Ths women also were defended by Dr. 8, Lewis Robertson of London, repre-. senting the Presbyterian Church of i England, and Dr. Arthur J.

Straton to resign. The letter in part says: "Your activities have consisted of a species of clownery whose chief assets are the portrayal to the public of anything that may be construed as sensual, spectacular and erotic, These facts arc public property. This method has tended to degrade your church, filling it with sensation and amusement seekers rather than those in search of spiritual help and consolation. "We charge that your efforts have been largely hypocritical and selfish inasmuch as after you had achieved sufficient notoriety you incorporated in book form much of the material used from the pulpit. In so doing we charge that you have prostituted your sacreu omce tor personal renown and for large and pecuniary personal pront.

That your methods are disastrous to the welfare of your church is evi tlenced by the revolt against them of a large proportion of your congrega tion, four or your sermons have been unfit for the ears of children whose mothers fear to entrust them to the care of what should bethe finest and most powerful Influence in their lives. "We speak in the interests of our members, among whom nre churchmen of every denomination and among whom are members of your own church." WHAT CAUSED DEATH OF SCENARIO WRITER? i Authorities Trying to Solve Zelda Crosby Mystery. several witnesses, one or tnem a woman, were subpaened to appear be fore Chief Medical Examiner Charles H. Norris in Manhattan, today to be questioned about the death of Zelda Crosby, the young scenario writer. Dr.

Norris wished to determine whether the young woman's death, which oc curred In June, was due to an accidental overdose of veronal, or whether the drug was taken with suicidal in tent. It was at first believed that death was due to an overdose of the drug accidentally taken. Recently Dr. Benjamin Schwartz, assistant medical examiner, learned in a round about way, that two letters had been writ ten by the young woman which had not been delivered into the hands of the authorities as the law requires. To whom they were addressed, nnd what their contents were, is something which the medical examiner will try to learn.

When Dr. Schwartz was called into the case, he examined the body and found that death was due to veronal poisoning and terminal bronchial pneumonia. Upon the Information of a private physician, who t-ald that he had treated the young woman previously for veronal poisoning, Dr, Schwartz concluded that she was an habitual user of the drug and that therefore there was no necessity for holding an autopsy. Now the information as to the existence of the letters which were removed for some reason not known, makes It imperative that the records in the medical examiner's olllce shall be accurate as to the cause of death. Miss Crosby was a very attractive young woman.

She had a studio apartment at 23 E. 55th Manhattan. After the young woman died and was buried the housekeeper was visited by several persons, apparently detectives, who ask many questions for what reason was never explained. They wanted to know, the housekeeper said, about parties which hud been held'in the studio. These visits first tinged the case with mystery.
