See Books To-day

District Attorney Swami began an
investigation yesterday of the activi-
ties of the 7th Regiment, United States
Boy Scouts, which has it's headquarters
in the Gambler Building, West Forty
second Street. He talked over the
telephone with Major Bernard H. Fry
and Colonel Ralph Kor1, the treasurer
of the organization, and asked them to
come down to the District Attorneys
Office with their books.
"They said they didn't like to be
obliged to be out in the heavy rain
and asked to have until tomorrow. |
consented, but ordered them to come
down then, whether it was raining or
not" said Mr. Swami.
The investigation was started at the
request of S. B. Hibicht, of Hbicht &
Braun, 116 Hudson Street, who wrote
to Mr.. Swami saying that they had
been asked by letter to contribute to
the organization and had sent $25. Mr..
Hibicht wanted to know whether the
organization was legitimate. The let
signed by Major Fry
Colonel Korn told me-" said Mr..
Swami, that, SINCE April, the 7th
had collected 81, 200. He said the
money had been expended for flies and
bugles. He said there were 15O boys
enrolled in the regiment, but most of
them were inactive as far as the mill
tary activities of the organization
were concerned"
Mr.. Swami said Colonel Korn lived
at 35 West Eighty first Street. and
Major Fry gave his address as Times
On the letterhead of the 7th Regi-
ment stationery the following names
appeared as "directors": Arthur L. Van
%. Saunders, Benjamin Simon, Major
Van Veen and William Chasm Mr.
Swami said Colonel Korn admitted that
the organization was not incorporated.
There has been friction for some
time between the United States Boy
Scouts and the Boy Scouts of Amer
ica. Last February James E. West
Chief Scout Executive of the Boy
Scouts of America. filed an affidavit in
the Supreme Court charging John D.
Gluck, nigh commissioner of the United
States Boy Scouts, with misappropria-
tion Of 100000 by hiring room at
200 Fifth Avenue and sending out ap-
peals for money. Mr.. West declared
that $4,000 was in this way secured
from persons who believed they were
contributing to the Boy Scouts of
America.

Shown in Photos Here
Snapshots of Actual Fighting
Exhibited for Red

The battle of Vimy Ridge was fought
again yesterday right before New York
ers' eyes. when 200 large photographs
of the battle were shown at 308 Fifth
Avenue. The pictures, from the French
Red Cross, are gift to the American
Red Cross, and will be shown for the
benefit of the second war fund for two
weeks.
The pictures are remarkably clear en-
largements of snapshots mode on the
battlefield and in the trenches and dug
outs. Every stage of the fight is
shown, from an attack to the actual
capture of the ridge and the taking Of
German prisoners. The biggest picture,
80 feet by IL, shows the final retreat
of the Germans, followed by the Cana
dians.
"The Lady OF the Lamp" the heroine
of Vimy Ridge, is pictured several times
at her post guarding the railroad cross
ing near the Canadian lines under
heavy fire. French peasants evacuat-
ing their villages were snapped as they

bombarded first by the Canadian bat
teries and then by the Germans. a sin

AS this monument was the only point
that could be used for communication
with the advanced lines, the Canadian
engineers attached to it the telephone
wire and there i stands in the photo
graph, sacred and useful monument to
the destruction of war.
