JACKSON KIND
THINK IT. OVER

ANY manufacturer can cheaper the
Quality and thereby lower the price of
his product.
Any dealer can buy cheapened product
and sell it at a profit for less money than
his competitor is obliged to ask for
QUALITY goods
The ultimate consumer, " when ne comes
to make use of the cheapened and cut
price product, is dissatisfied, and as re
suit both manufacturer and dealer
lose a customer.
DOES 1T PAY?
1t certainly does not. For time, per-
haps, sales will be increased. but being
wrong in principle, this policy viii be a
loser in the end

TOMK|NS DELAYS PIERS
Finally Agrees That terminal
Road Problem Can Wait.
EXPECT ACTION NEXT WEEK
Colonel Black Says City Should
Make Three Developments
All Will Be Needed.

Action on the report of the committee
on terminals Of the Board of Estimate
was postponed by that body yesterday
until Wednesday, when next weeks meet
ing Of the board will be held.
At that time II is probable definite ac-
ton will be taken looking toward the
construction OF piers Of 1000 or 1900 feet
in length between 44th and Goth streets on
the West Side. Dock Commissioner Tom
kins at FIRST asked for delay until the
problem as to the marginal railroad could
be solved, in order that definite terminal
policy might be adopted.
Members of the Board OF Estimate
showed considerable annoyance at the at
titude taken by Commissioner Tomkins,
and he finally agreed II would be well to
go ahead with the pier proposition at the
earliest possible moment. He will at once
get to work on plans 10 indicate the cost
Of l,200-foot piers.
Colonel William NJ. Black of the United
States Harbor Line Board, said the de-
cision OF the Secretary OF War'not to al
low any further narrowing Of the fairway
in the Hudson River was just one, and
that no delay should be allowed by the
city authorities in solving the problem OF
building longer piers without going fur
Their out into the stream. He expressed
himself as heartily in accord with the sug-
gestion Of the committee on terminals In
regard to piers between 44th and Goth
streets.
Furthermore, Colonel Black suggested
the possibility Of constructing longitudinal
piers in the Riverside Drive section be-
tween 72d and 10Sth streets. He said
that four 2,o00-foot concrete landing plat
forms capable Of berthing the longest
ships now contemplated could be built
along this stretch without interfering In
any way With tho present layout Of the
waterfront
81 do not want to suggest this as an
alternative PLAN" he said, "for the pres
ent plan for piers lower down. 1t should
be considered as being supplementary.
The city should make all three Of the de-
velopments, building the first section Of
the long piers at Desbrosses street, the
second section between 44th and 60th
streets and the third stretch Of longi-
tudinal piers above 72d street II will
need them all. Then the government Is
anxious for the city to adopt some definite
policy"
When Commissioner Tomkins was urg-
ing delay In order that the marginal rail-
road proposition might be settled Presi-
dent Mitchell Of the Board Of Aldermen
had warm discussion with him.
II tell you right now" said President
Mitchell, that. whether the West Side rail-
road is an elevated or a subway. II will
not be for the New York Central's ex-
elusive benefit That's settled, and our
committee will have report on II by
January l."
Former Corporation Counsel Ellison
'filed a protest against going inland with
the piers above 44th street on behalf Of a
number of manufacturers whose property
would be affected. Manhattan Island Is
already narrow enough" he said.

SUPPORT OF NAVY
Retiring Head of Naval ArChi-
teCtS Hopeful.

The twentieth annual session OF the So
ciety Of Naval Architects and Marine En-
gineers opened yesterday in the Engineer
ing Societies Building, in West 39th
street. After the meeting was called TO
order the president, Stevenson Taylor,
urged support for the navy in an address
following his announcement that the NOM
mating committee had selected Colonel
Robert NJ. Thompson, OF this city, to be
the president for the ensuing term OF
three years. beginning January l. Colonel
Thompson was elected unanimously.
In his annual address Mr.. Taylor said
the United States navy had grown stead
lily greater. and It was necessary only TO
have the support of our citizens to have
IL hold It's rightful place in the world. or
the merchant marine. he said 1t was doing
as we'll as II could, and while the ship
yards were fairly busy. II remained to be
desired that there be a much greater de-
mand for ships.
Perhaps the party soon to come in
power may, with new treaties, produce re-
suits under which we may build and run
ships in competition with the world" said
Mr.. Taylor.
Speaking Of the Titanic disaster the
president said ship builders in the future
must be sure the plating OF vessel had
ductlity. so that rupture In case of Sc
we're indentation would be reduced to a
minimum He said as the law stood he
thought II was possible there might be
more lifeboats or life RATS than could be
properly or quickly handled In time OF
trouble.
After the address OF the president
papers were read by various members.

Captain Dyson said that, basing the

both types. the advantage appears to rest
decidedly with the reciprocating engine,

New York Railways Give In
tereSting Exhibition OF the
Progress of Surface
Traffic Facilities.

To show what progress has been made
in street railway traffic facilities the New
York Railways Company had parade
yesterday. 1t served to impress upon the
minds Of those who saw it that while
horsecars still run In New York. though
not on Broadway. there is coming a time
when, perhaps, there may be room for
just one more passenger during the rush
hours.
A dumpy little bobtailed car OF the
vintage Of 1850. that used to be pulled by
a single horse, had the right OF the line
when the procession started from Sew
enth avenue and 5oth street The ancient
car was drawn by TWO milk white steeds
that were bette. ..oomed than the av-
erage horse required to pull a horsecar
and got an ovation all the way to the
Battery. It was followed by car Of the
type that ran along the main street OF
the town in the days when cable was an
innovation Then came the pay-as-you~
enter car, which is now the principal
means Of surface transportation, followed
by the low step open-in-the-middle car,
No. 5000, Of which as yet there Is only
one. The rear Of the procession was
brought UP by No. 1000, the big double
decker. which made its first appearance
on Broadway last spring and created a
sensation.
The guests were aboard this car. They
were William f. Wilcox, chairman OF
the Public Service Commission. and Com
missioners Eustis and Williams. Accom-
panying them were Theodore P. Shonts.
