100000 Pennies
Given by Children
TO Disabled French
Public School Scholars Con-
tribute to Fund for Those
Without Pensions

4 shower of more than 100000 pen
school children yesterday to a fund
for French soldiers retired for disa-
bility without pension. President
Arthur Somers of the Board Of Edu-
cation on Wednesday last, had notified
each of the school principals to explain
the plight of these men to the pupils
and at the same time set yesterday for
the collection.
Contributions of one cent were asked,
with the privilege of as many rcpeti-
tions as each child felt warranted in
making.
District Superintendent William j.
O'Shea, directing war service of the
city's school children, announced last
night that practically every one Of the
100000 pupils had given at least the
single copper asked for.
"Thrift stamps and the Junior Red
Cross have cultivated the giving habit
and imbued the children with the spirit
of assistance" said Mr.. O'Shea.
Principal Clara American of P. S.
1877 said that the 800 pupils in her
school had given 1900 pennies. Mr..
O'Shea predicted that at least $4,000
will be realized when all the principals
have made their reports.
eve told the children" said Mr.
O'Shea, "that many of the soldiers, who
were really fighting for them, were
taken seriously i'll while in the service
and forced to return home on fur
loughs or permanent retirement. AS
they were not wounded in fighting they
are unprovided for by the government,
and many are impoverished and suffer-
ing great hardships."
"There was hardly a child who tasted
candy to-day" said Miss Katherine A.

Aircraft Report
To Be Made Soon
Findings of the Marshall Com
mittee Are Almost
Ready
TStaT Correspondence1

WASHINGTON, April 8.-Acting Sec
retary of War Crowell said to-day that
the Marshall committee, appointed b~
the President to investigate the status
of aircraft production, would soon
make preliminary report, which would
at once be made public. 1t is ex-
pected that the Senate Committee on
Military Affairs will issue report on
it's independent investigation of air
craft matters at about the same time
The Marshall committee is making
very searching investigation. and IS
taking special pains to learn the trou-
bles of manufacturers and get their
views as to what measures are neces-
sary to improve the present status OF
aircraft production. Manufacturers
have been advised that they may COM
municate freely with the committee and
with no fear Of -eprisals from oihcla
who may be adversely criticised IN
these confidential communications.
1t is not known whether the commit
tee has yet arrived at any conclusion
as to the manner of reorganization of
the administrative machinery of air
craft production, but it is known that
it is giving much consideration to the
British system, which has board sim
liar to our Aircraft Board, uniting
army and navy aviation, but having
actual control Of production, instead OF
leaving it in military hands, as IN the
American organization. Members of
the board include representatives Of
the army and navy, but it has ma
iority Of civilian members. and the
chairman, who is a civilian, has the
sole power of deciding all matters. the
other members having an advisory and
consultative function.
The final recommendations OF the
committee are expected to increase
considerably the authority of the Ma
tional Advisory Committee for Aero
nautics, which is charged with the re-
sponsi ihilty Of looking ahead in all
aeronautical developments and devel-
oping new ideas and inventions of

Declares He Favors Their

Service
Many Already Gone
Different With Those Above
Draft. Age Applying for
Leaves of Absence

Mayor Hylan emprauically declared
the enlistment of city employees, as had
been reported, he was in favor Of such
enlistnents. He pointed out, however,
that it was a different matter when an
in order to enlist. 1t was then up to
the heads of departments to determine
whether such applications should be
granted, he said
"All such applications are referred
to the heads Of departments and care
fully considered by them and come to
mo for final action" said the Mayor.
The Mayors attention was called to
the case of an cmploye in the Depart
lnent of Education, whose application
for leave of absence was refused. He
said he did not recall that particular
case. He did not explain the fact, that
under the law the only way in which a
city cmploye, who does not come within
the draft age, can receive the difference
between his salary in the city's service
and that which he would receive in the
Federal service is through leave of
absence granted by the Mayor.
Might Cripple the City
Grover Whalcn, the Mayors secre-
tary, volunteered a further explana-
ton. Mr.. Whalen said that one of the
reasons the Mayor had not certified to
q certain number of applications For
enlistment was because so many men
were leaving the departments to enlist
that the Mayor feared it would seri-
ously cripple the city government if it
continued. Mr. Whalen said the vari-
Gus heads of departm had been
asked to make a survey Of the situa-
tion.
"At least GOO men have left the
Fire Department. and at least 500 more
have left the Police Department since
said Mr. Whalen. "Just how many
have left the various city departments
can not be estimated offhand, but I
can say the number runs into the
thousands. Under the Fenner law,
which provides that the city cmploye
serving his country receives the DIFF
ference between his army pay and his
city pay, all applications must pass
through the Mayors hands.
Three Glasses of Men
"Of course, men within the draft
age who enlist are financially reim
bursed to the extent Of the difference
in pays There isn't any doubt about
that class of employe. There is still

We have the men virtually ready to

Mr.. Conboy called attention ycster-
day to the fact that hundred expert
