Summers Work.

Public school boys from New York
city who worked on the farms OF the
state last summer earned s42,s60 moro
than their expenses, John L. Tildsley.
associate city superintendent, told the
Board OF Education yesterday. A pro-
posal for the board to continue the as
signnent OF Frank A. Rexford as super
visor OF farm work was put over until
to-day. After Joseph Yeseka had de-
clared he did not approve OF the board
going into farming" Mr.. Tndsley said:
Not only has the work on farms been
OF the greatest value to the boys from
the standpoint OF health. but there is
every probability that many will be in
spired with a desire to make farming
their life work Two thousand boys
from the city schools were employed on
the farms from four to Ave months and
reports from 716 show 1860 acres were
cultivated which could not have been
TILED without their labor.
The Board OF Education appropriated
$4,000 for the farm work and $4,000
has been returned unexpended. The
boys picked 323.627 quarts OF berries. for
which they were paid $4,000. we do
not consider the pay was enough. so they
will not pick berries next year"
The board abolished the position OF
teachers of German and they are TO be
assigned to duty as regular grade teach
ers. The acceptance OF the resignation
OF Miss Mary X. Schocken. suspended on
charges OF conduct unbecoming a

Undertakers Accused Of APP

Dead Soldiers.
PREYED UPON RELATIVES

and Sell Those Supplied
by Government.
PREYED UPON RELATIVES

Federal officers and the local police
will begin In few days wholesale
roundup rof new type OF war thieves
known as coffin ghouls. Two undertake
ers are under arrest already.
A close watch has been kept recently
on certain undertakers in New York
who have been receiving the bodies Of
United States soldiers and sailors who
have died in training camps. Their In
vestlgation has disclosed that the bodies
dertakers In well made piae boxes which
cost the Government sac each.
The practice of the accused local I'M
dertakers is to visit the relatives Of the
dead men and mlsrepresent the value OF
the Government collins These under
takers ask the families IL It Is their
desire that tho soldier or sailor dead
be buried in cheap pine box.
In the majority OF instances the srief
stricken relatives revolt at such a pros
pect and the undertaken leaves with an
order for a coffin the cost OF which
many OF the relatives can Ill afford to
pay.
Then the undertaken appropriates the
Government coffin and later resells It,
after removing the official stamp from
the inside. These sales have netted
from SIS to $25 each. tho Investigators
assert. and some Of the boxes have
even been resold to the Government.
As the result OF the disclosures two
men have been arrested. arraigned be-
fore Samual NJ Hitchcock. United States
Commissioner, and held in $4,000 bail
for further examination on the charge
OF attempting TO defraud the Govern
ment. They are Samuel Aipert. 81,
1918 Lexington avenue. and his brother,
Benjamin. 40. 1853 East 18th street.
They maintain livery stable and I'M
dertaking establishment at 10Th street
and Lexington avenue.
George NJ Curtis. Jr.. Assistant
United States District Attorney. and
Detectives Finan and Boyle from the
Sixth inspection district visited the AL
pert stable Saturday. They found six
Government collins on an upper floor of
the stable and questioned the brothers
about them. The reply was that They
had been purchased.
The Government permit was found
stamped on the inside of each CONN.
and this, coupled with the fact that the
Alperts had received the bodies Of six
soldiers from training camps, resulted In
their arrest.
Other arrests have been made and IL
II expected that the net spread by the
Federal authorities will land several
more.

MAYOR CRITICISES
SALARY AGITATORS
Tells City Employees to Do
Their Work and Stop
Making Trouble.

Writing to the heads OF HE depart
ments yesterday. Mayor Hylan severely
criticised the "agitators'' and trouble
makers" In various departments who are
endeavoring to breed discomfort be-
cause the increases in salary given to
Them were not large enough.
at is the duty OF all commissioners of
city departments" the Mayor wrote Ito
see that such professional agitators. who
instead of attending TO the duties OF
their office, continually annoy the mem
bers OF the board of Estimate. directly
or indirectly. be compelled to remain in
the Offices and perform the duty for
which they we're appointed and are being
paid. would further recommend II
they fail TO do 80 that you Immediately
dispense with their services"
Leading UP to this the Mayor said:
II regret to observe that few agita-
tors and trouble makers In the several
departments OF the city are endeavoring
to breed discomfort by finding fault with
tho amount of increase in salary ac-
corded TO city employees by the Board
OF Estimate. Such apparent greediness
has a tendency to reflect discredit upon
the thousands OF faithful employees who
should he and are grateful to the people
OF the city for the additional! compensa-
ton. though small, when the burden ON
everybody is 80 great.
The Board of Estimate, in plain JUS
tico to the employees. recognized the in
creased price of necessities and to help
lessen thei: burden adopted general
policy to increase all employees, includ-
ing teachers. receiving $500 or less
500 per annum and the police officers
and fremen $3.50. Thousands of persons
working by the day for the city were
also Increased These increases aggre-
gate a total cost to the city OF more
than $1,000. 900"
Leonard Wallstein. counsel OF the city
government committee OF the Citizens
Union, who praised the moderation of
the Board of Estimate after the tenta-
tive figures were made public. now finds
that many new jobs were slipped in
later In many instances, he says, they
were not even contained in the published
requests OF department heads The total
increase over this years budget Is
nearly sl0.000,oO0. much larger than
originally understood by Mr.. Wallstein.

PRICE FIXING POWER
DENIED BY HOOVER
Baruch, However, Could Do
So Under Proclamation.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.-Food Admin
isirator Hoover asserted to-day that the
Lever law. under which the Food and
Fuel Administrations were created, does
not confer the power on him to fix and
regulate prices although this authority
is given to DR.. Garfield.
Congress has not been asked to amend
the law, TO give the Food Administration
control of food prices, It was said, for
the reason that II was believed Con-
gress would not be willing to enact such
legislation. 1t was admitted. however,
that Chairman Baruch. acting under the
load powers conferred by the Presi-
dents proclamation. can fix prices for
the Food Administration.
At Mr.. Baruch's office It was stated
that the matter has not been presented
to him.
