Magistrate Denounces
Alan Dale s Play

Alan Dale, dramatic critic and play
wright, in his most caustic days never
criticised a drama more severely than
his "Madonna of the Future" was at
tackled yesterday by Chief Magistrate
William McAdoo.
The stable and not the stage is the
proper place to produce the Madonna
of the Future" according to Magistrate
McAdoo He held that the play, now
being produced at a Brooklyn theatre
was not only immoral, but tiresome.
Magistrate McAdoo gave his opinion
in a letter to former Judge Moses H.
Grossman, of House, Grossman & Vor-
haus, counsel for George Broadhurst,
owner of the Broadhurst Theatre.
In his opinion, Magistrate McAdoo
said:
"Havng read the play carefully,
am compelled to the conclusion that it
is, technically, at least, immoral in the
sense in which that word is used in
the statute. The whole theme, with
the long drawn out talks of the charac-
ters, is of the advantage Of maternity
without marriage, and that fatherhood
is matter of no cons liberation. The
law of the land insists that sexual
morality is founded on marriage and
recognizes the family as the unit in
the land.
"The title of the play is clearly a
reference to the Virgin birth. This is
a gratuitous insult to millions of our
citizens. to whom such things are
sacred beyond expression"

Mayor Demands Jail Sentences
for All Offenders

While Mayor Hylan COULD nnd moth
ing very rapid about the b. r. T., he
has a particular aversion for violators
OF the speed and traffic laws. In a let
tcr TO Pollcc Commissioner Enright
yesterday, he demanded that instead OF
fning violators of the traffic laws in
the city, the offenders be sent to jail
lie declared he would request the city
magistrates to inf!ict Jail sentences.
"The most persistent violators are
lhosc who arc able to pay and care lit
tie for fine said the Mayor "I
hope the magistrates will sec to it
that this class Of offenders, who are
able to pay fine, will receive n Jail
sentence instead. The police on post,
ns we as those in charge Of traffic all
over the city, can take the license num-
bcrs Of motor vehicles that violate
traf'ic regulations, make note of the
particular violation and have the driver
summoned to court"

Hylan Places Ban
On "Wire Pullers'

Get down to work and stop wire pull
yesterday to his commissioners and
city employees in general.
The Mayor sent letter to the heads
of all departments under his jurisdic-
tion directing them to make no further
application for appointments or in
creases in salaries. He announced that
the time and place for all such appli-
cations We're in connection with the de-
partmental estimates submitted in the
fall of the year for the coming years
budget. He directed that any such
applications now pending before the
committee on salaries and grades of
the Board of Estimate be withdrawn
at once.
"Heads of departments and their en-
ploycs must concern themselves more
with the management and the duties
OF their respective departments than
with their personal affairs and their
desire for increased compensation, )"
said the Mayor. "Commissi sioners and
employees must get down to work at once
and stop wire pulling, to the end that
the city business may be improved and
economy practised in every way pos
sible. Any city employe not satisfied
with his or her present position and
salary ana feels that they can better
themselves should be given every op
portunty to 10 So"
The Mayor also admonished all de-
partment heads to make careful sur
vey OF their departments so that they
would be in a position to make "an
honest. intelligent departmental esti-
mate for the budget of 1919"
1T was explained that the Mavor's
prohibition against further salary in
creases this year did not apply to per
diem employees and consequently would
not preclude raise in the salaries Of

In Opposition TO
6-Cent Carfare
Writes Shonts New York
Taxpayers Are Already
Burdened Enough

Mayor Hylan yesterday answered the
recent letter of Theodore P. Shonts,
president of the lnterborough Rapid
Transit Company. in which the latter
described the serious transit situarion
IN this city and made an appeal for
Scent fare. The Mayor said he was op-
posed to the increase in fare for the
reason that the burden borne by the
rentpayer and the taxpayer in this city
is already great enough
The Mayor directed strong criticism
at the dual subway contracts as a los
ing proposition for the city, and point
ed out that although the city had in
vested millions of dollars in the sub
ways and was practically in copartner-
ship with .the Interborough and the
B. R. 7. it had no representative in the
board of directors of either company
and knew practicall. nothing about the
management or the expenditure of the
millions of dollars in connection with
the operation of the system He de-
clared that municipal ownership was
City Has No Voice
Large salaries have been paid by the
Interborough," said the Mayor, "bonuses
have been voted by the board of d
rectors, counsel fees have been paid on
both sides of the case and the city's
part of the obligation has been in
creased ithout the duly elected repre-
sentatives of the people of the city
L..
81 am not surprised, neither are
those who opposed the dual subway
contracts, that under them the city will
be obliged to pay millions of dollars
because they have no direct control
over the management and operation of
the dual system. | am not surprised
that you now find it necessary to come
to the people of the city and ask for
more money. Even if the people of this
city would allow the 6-cent fare they
would not have any more representa-
tion in the management and operati tion
Of the dual subway contracts than they
have now. Three years hence another
application will no doubt be made for
more money from the city.
Hits Public Service Commission
"Since previous city Illustration.
together with the Public Service Com
mission, entered into this dual scheme,
at every turn the city has been com
PEELED to pay deficiencies The manage
mcnt of the Public Service Commission
has brought about a condition whereby
suits to the extent of millions of dol
lars have been instituted against the
city.
"And some of the members of the
commission appear to be deeply in sym
ofh Hn
petltioning the city to assume their ad-
dtional obligation to the extent of six
or eight million dollars more"
The Mayor said that he agreed with
Mr.. Shonts's suggestion that some way
should be found to make the thousands
of commuters who make their money in
New York but spend it and pay taxes
outside of the city pay their portion
Of the tax burden Of the city.

Eggs Sold Seven
Times Before They
Reach Consumer
Inquiry Into Swifts' Busi-
ness Shows Several Profits
on Farm Product
By BRIGGS

The Food Boards inquiry into recent
transactions in eggs by Swift & Co.,
Inc. resolved itself yesterday into an
investigation of trading practices on
the Mercantile Exchange
1t was shown at the hearing that one
consignment Of eggs passed through the
hands Of several dealers on the floor
of the exchange, changing in price each
time and finally reaching Swift G. Co.,
to be sold to retailers.
Rule of the food administration
says that food commodities shall be
kept moving from producers to con-
sumers "in as direct line as prac-
ticable and without unreasonable de-
lay. Resales within the same trade
without reasonable justification, espe-
cially if tending to result in higher
market price to the retailer or con-
sumer, will be dealt with as an un-
fair practice"
Alan Fox. head of the Bureau Of
Licenses. obtained from witnesses the
history of consignment of tifty-one
cases Of fresh eggs that reached Swift
{. Co. March 6. W. H. Mapes, IS Har-
rison Street said he bought the eggs
at 36 cents a dozen from Florida
packer on March .. Saal Brothers
bought them from Mapes on the floor
OF the exchange at 80 cents a dozen.
Mapes losing | cent dozen. They
were then resold, according to wit
nesscs, at 81 cents a dozen to Phillip
Mandelker, 154 Readc Street, who sold
them to C. II. Zinn & Co. at 3s cents
a dozen. Zinn & Co. turned them over
to Swift & Co. at 3Sl2 cents a dozen.
II. G. Clarke. manager of the produce
department Of Swift & Co., said that
the eggs were shipped to Swift &
Co.'s depot at Flushing. l.. T., and then
sold to storekcepers. He did not know
the exact price; he thought it was
80 and 40 cents a dozen.
There is no regulation of the price
OF fresh eggs. The investigation of
Swift Co.'S egg transactions resulted
from the sale Of a large quantity of
cold storage eggs at about SO cents
a dozen last January, after the food
administration had fixed the price at
As. Is cents Swift & Co. showed that thew
had bought the eggs at price con.
sderably higher than the food board
price and that their profit was small

ISt0f CorrespO11dcnce

ALBANY, March 22-Some of the
drys tonight wondered if they had
not been manmuvred into a false posi-
tion by the vets, who persuaded them
to advocate the beer and light wines
bill introduced yesterday by Senator
James A. Emerson on behalf of the
Committee on Taxation and Retrench~
ment.
This measure, decided upon at a
conference between wet and dry lead
ers, including Robert G. Davey, coun-
sci to the Anti-Saloon League, has al
ready begun to plague the drys.
I'VE have been placed in an unfair
position" said Mr.. Davey to The Trib-
une correspondent. at looks as if we
were advocating the sale of light wines
and beer when. as a matter of fact,
what We are advocating is opposition
to whiskey."
"Tweedledee and twecdledum," is the
answer OF the vets to this.
But the drys are seriously alarmed
over the fact that they are behind this
new bill which prohibits the sale of all
Intoxicating beverages except 3 per
cent beer and wines of normal alcoholic
strength after December 81 next
Drys Working With Brewers
What concerns the drys most, and es-
pecially the AntiSaloon League. is that
they find themselves working shoulder
to shoulder with the brewery interests
and wine growers for the first time. The
wine men and brewers are quietly work
ing for this new temperance bill, for
they believe that it's enactment into
law will go long way toward stopping
the incursions of the prohibitionsts in
this state and will insure their con-
tinuance in business.
William H. Anderson, superintendent
o the Anti-Saloon League, issued a
New-York tribune., 1918-03-23
Drys Worried at Leaning |

They Are Working for Restrictive Bill at Albany to

statement tonight defining the new at
titude of the league. The league, he
admitted, "would advise prohibition
Senators that the wisest thing for them
to do was to vote for it (the light wine
and beer bilD."
Mr. Anderson's statement follows:
IN view of the misinterpretation,
most of it evidently in good faith, Of
the attitude of the Anti Saloon League,
the league desires to make clear that
1T IS not supporting the bill exempting
beer and wine, and has never consent
ed, and will never consent, to the ex-
emption of beer and wine from any
prohibition measure.
Will Not Oppose Restriction
"Robert G. Davey. our counsel at AL
bany called me yesterday and submit
ted proposition which had been put
up to him and arranged for me to talk
direct with Senator Emerson, the chair
man of the Taxation Committee, and
through him | said in the most explicit
manner that the league would not con-
sent to this exemption and would not
assume amy responsibility for passing
this bill, but that if the committee, on
its own responsibility, brought it out
and 1T was up to be passed or defeated
the league would advise prohibition
Senators that the wiscst thing for them
to do was to vote for it.
"While the league will not consent
to anything less than complete prob bi-
ton, we will not oppose any restrictive
move made by thc vets. so long as it
IS not permitted to stand in the way
OF actual advance lcgslation."
The various retail liquor dealers as
sociatlons of the state, made up almost
exclusively of saloonkeepcrs, have
lodged protests against the bill. They
declare that most Of them will have to
close shop if they are limited to the
sale of vinous and malt liquors. The
Dill Will come up for a vote Monday
night.
