RUSH TO REGISTER BONDS
Purdy Fears Some Owners May
Overlook Change in Tax Law.

For more than a week the local office or
the State Controller, at No. 1855 Broadway
has been rushed by persons who wanted 10
register bonds under the new tax law. AT
one time more than one thousand separate
certificates, representing millions Of dol
lars. were in the office Extraordinary pre-
cautions We're taken TO see that none OF the
securities disappeared.
Most of the bonds that have been pre-
scented for registration so far have been
held by large owners and bond houses, who
are familiar with the new law. President
Turdy Of the Municipal Tax Department
expressed the fear yesterday that many
small bond owners might wake up too late
TO the realization Of the change in the law.
He said
From one point q view we, Of course,
want 10 collect "a IL tax money We can :
but We Go not rant - take advantage OF
persons ignorance TO dep.ive them OF what
viii be, m many cases, a. very large part
Ct their annual incomes.
Under the Old law holders OF taxable Sc
curties, II they could Offset them by proofs
0f Indebtedness. could claim immunity from
the collection Of personal taxes to the
amount of such Indebtedness. Under the
present law that cannot be done, except In
cases whore securities have been registered
with the Controller Of the state before Oc-
toher l. which hereafter will be the tax
date instead OF the second Monday in
January.
It will become the duty OF President
purdy 20 collect personal taxes on all bonds
that are not properly registered with the
State Controller on October l. no offsets be-
ing permitted on bonds not 50 registered.

LIVE GORILLA ARRIVES
Invalid Female Specimen Second
to Reach These Shores.
GOES TO zoo IN BRONX
Director Hornaday at Last Gets
Long Sought Simian Of the
First Order.

A live gorilla came to town yesterday
on the French liner La Provence, after
tourney from the French Congo via Havre.
She was not feeling well and was exceed
ingly melancholy. But she was alive. and
the fact that she moved and breat1ed
brought Joy to the hearts Of the natural
lists and others who know the difficulties
Of landing a live specimen OF this monkey
primate in foreign zone.
There was much ado about the arrival
OF the young gorilla. and well might there
be a fuss made, for the specimen on the
Provence was the second OF its kind that
ever came alive TO the Western Henri
sphere.
The longshoreman who remarked "All
monks look alike TO me" opened his eyes
when informed that the hairy creature
was a rarity outside it's habitat and the
animal bearing the closest physical re-
semblance TO man.
Ningo is the name Of the lady GO

DR.. Hornaday, OF the New York Zoolog-
ical Society, wanted a gorilla FOR the gar
dens IN The Bronx. and he commissioned
Professor Garner 10 get one or more speci-
mems. Accompanied by Mr. Imbrie, OF Bal
timore. Professor Garner left New YORK IN
April for the French Congo. The travellers
had fruitless tramp OF four hundred
miles into the jungle, and had about given
up hope Of getting gorilla, when they en-
countered a French trader who had capt
ured a female. two years old. The animal
was III and refused food. Her captor did
not know how TO feed her He knew his
charge would soon die on his hands, and
for this reason turned her over 70 Profess
sor Garner. who has given a lifetime 70
the study Of the species.
Professor Garner soon restored the health
Of the young gorilla by judiciously used
plantain diet With Ningo and young
chimpanzee the travellers started for Havre
from Fernan Vaz. and brought the animals
safely 20 these shores.
Throughout the voyage, and even during
the automobile Journey from the pier TO
Bronx Park, Ningo sat listlessly in her
cage, assuming at times the attitude Of the
stone lady representing Africa on the
northwest corner Of the Custom House.
Or. Hornaday said yesterday that he be-
Heved the young gorilla would live and
thrive in The Bronx She will not be on

Legislation.

CHICAGO. September lG-LawS pro-

industrial accidents and prohibiting the
use of phosphorus in the manufacture
of matches were denan ded in resolutions
adopted by the American Association for
Labor Legislation at the closing ses-
sion here today. The resolution will be
forwarded to Congress.
Following attack by Charles p.
NELL. United States commissioner OF
labor, on methods employed by some of
the states in gathering ndustr al statis-
tics. the association appointed COM
mittee 10 draft suitable bill providing
a uniform system of reporting industrial
accidents and occupational diseases.
On tais committee We're named Leonard

reau of labor. Louis w CLANCY of the

dicating that phosphorus is not necessary
in the manufacture of matches and that
phosphorus poisoning in the match in
Idustry can be eliminated.
