There are times in life when the
memory OF kind deed. Il good act or
n pleasant word may be like bread
cast upOn the waters. 1t may be
months or it may be years, but by
and by as the wheels of fate turns
we may pause at the same spot
again, and the one first to give may
be the last to receive. Don't tell
us that good deeds do not live and
bear fruit, for life has taught us
that they do, when sown in the right
soil.

F federal Traffic Court
May Be Opened Here

A Federal traffic court, it was stated
yesterday, may sit here soon to deal
with violations by Federal and military
motor vehicles of the traffic laws. At
present, in the opinion of Attorney
General Merton z. Lewis, neither the
state nor local authorities have other
action to take in the case Of these mo-
tor vehicle offenders than to report
their cases to the military authorities.
The question OF what procedure
could be taken against such infractors
Of traffic laws has already been
thrashed out in New Jersey. There. it
was decided that the only remedy, for
what is fast becoming dangerous
condition of the state, lay with the
Federal authorities. and they have
been asked to take up the matter and
arrange for special license tag. which
will be carried on all cars engaged in
military or other government work.
At the present time, according to
Motor Vehicle Commissioner William
l.. Dill, of New Jersey, there are hum
dreds of automobiles being driven by
persons not engaged in government
work, though they do occupy Federal
positions. They are, in his opinion,
merely taking advantage of their posi-
ton to evade the traffic laws.
Secretary of State Hugo. who Sc
cured the opinion from the Attorney
General. it is believed. will take up the
matter at once with Washington.

Hearing ON Pier

Corporation CounsePs Ac-

The city yesterday unexpectedly
blocked the public hearings on the
much disputed lease of Pier 50, North
River, to the Hudson Dock and Termi-
nal Corporation, as approved by the
Sinking Fund Commission on April II.
The hearings were to begin to-day be-
fore Lewis L. Delafield, as referee, in
Special Term, Part Z, Of the Supreme
Court, and all the witnesses had been
subpGnaed, when the Corporation
Counsel yesterday filed notice of ap-
peal from Justice Greenbaum's recent
order appointing referee to take tes-
timony.
This acts as an Indefinite stay to
proceedings before the referee. So un-
expected was the action that some Of
the members Of the Sinking Fund Com
mission did not know of the appeal.
President Alfred E. Smith, of the
Board of Aldermen, member of the
commission, and Dock. Commissioner
Murray Hubert, who is not a member
of the commission, but who is vitality

WASHINGTON, April 24.-The gov
ernment's opposition to the proposed
plan of providing for deferred install

statements by Secretary McAdoo and
Representative Kitchin, chairman of
the House Ways and Means Committee.
To defer the payments until fall.
when another Liberty Loan will have
to be issued, Mr.. McAdoo said, will add
new complications to the situation. He
explained that nearly So 100000 of
treasury certificates already had been
sold to mature in June, and these Writ
ually amount to advance payments of
the taxes due then.
The Secretary felt it necessary to re-

sad to have been made by Professor
Robert McNutt McElroy, who recently
spoke at the university under the au-

Whitman for his political ambition,
and said that neither Governor Hill
nor Governor Odell would have had
the effrontery to have one of his Of

Committee.
c. NJ. Hitchcock, of Madison Coun-
ty, made dong speech, but he got off
on the wrong foot, as they say in the
Bowery, by saying to the three women
delegates:
Ladies, you would not be here if
could have helped it," and minute
later he made the delegates sit up and
take notice by declaring, Let us find

An american" reporter at the press
table muttered that he guessed the

boss, as Hearst was seldom content
with headlines.

William Church Osborn read the
resolutions, which called for support for
the Administration of President Will

There was nothing in the resolutions
that could be construed as attacking

The resolutions included one favor

the United States and urging the Sen
ators from the State of New York to
vote for equal suffrage.

One of the steering committee ii
describing how the delegates were in
terrogated concerning sentiment il
their districts said:
every man was asked direct ques

Perhaps Mr.. Hearst ~ould, by the use
of money, get lot of the upstate
men away from the new movement
but it wouldn't do him any good. The
great issue will be American patriot
ism in the war, and any man who ha
to explain that he is an American will
not do as a candidate."
