HAssAM's FLAG PICTURES.
Effort to Preserve Them Az War
Memorial.

Childe Hassam has been the most as
siduous recorder Of the aspects of the
city during war time and it would seem
as though his twenty or so flag pic
lures" recorded with almost geometric
precision the beginnings and growth OF
the war fervor that found such splendid
expression in the decoration of Fifth
avenue.
These pictures did their share in IN
cIeasing the patriotic exaltation, when
shown uptown, and besides that were
regarded by many critics as ranking
among Mr.. Hassam's best productions
They are now being exhibited in the
parish house of the Church Of the AS

Mr.. Bache Gives Dinner.

A few evenings ago Mr.. Bache gave a
dinner in his home in honor of Daniel
FroEman, at which practically his en-
tire committee was present. At that
time a comprehensive plan was worked
out for the complete canvassing of the
Wall Street district in the form of an
underwriting syndicate. Circulars have
been prepared along the lines of usual
security offerings, setting forth the his
tory, business. requirements and man
agement Of the Actors Fund of Amer
lea, and these circulars have been sent
broadcast throughout the district
One particular feature of the circular
which in all probability strikes home
with greater force at this time than
any thing else mentioned therein is the
taxation exemption clause, which calls
particular attention to the fact that mas
much as all moneys received are recorded
as donations and tickets are given AWAY
instead OF being purchased, it is made
possible for donors to deduct their con-
trlbutions from their incomes. Certainly
Wall Street, of all places, should not
overlook any proposition whereby thew
could give generously to a good cause
get enjoyment out OF It besides and in

It Is probably because of the popular
idea that Wall Street and wealth not
only begin with the same letter but
mean the same thing that Daniel Froh-
man. president of the Actors Fund of
America, in planning his Countrywide
drive for Actors National Memorial
Day" has allocated to the Wall Street
committee, headed by Jules S. Bache of
the banking house of j. S. Bache & Co,
a quota of s250,000. This quota is by
far the largest Of any given to other

notwithstanding the fact that the or

same lines and patterns as were used
with the famous Rainbow Division of
the various Liberty Loan drives
Recognizing the fact that. even though
more stocks have been going up than

rule rather than the exception, 1t is diff
flcult to obtain money, not only from
Wall Street, but from any district. how

What have you as a patron of the
school done toward securing new
building?
The Primary building is filled to
overfowing, necessitating the plac-
ing of the first and second grades
on part time. Every desk in the
Grammar school is occupied. In
the first year high school there are
fifty four pupils with seating capa-
city for fifty two.
There is nothing conducive to
community spirit in any of the
building used for school purposes.
If any school exercise is to be held,
some place other than the present
school buildings must be sought.
The college has been very kind in
this respect in granting the school
the use of Wolf Hall.
In the school budget made out
last July, provision for a hundred
twenty thousand dollar building
was made. This amount the state
board of education did not think
usfficiently large, and other pro-
visions must be made. viii every
home-loving citizen lend his aid in
boosting for the speedy prepara-
tions for an up-to-date school
building for Newark?

ino Project

The total enrolment of the New
ark Public Schools is $50, distri-
buted among three buildings whose
rating by tn state survey commit
tee may be of some interest.
Out Of a possible 1000 points,
the primary building received a
credit of 249; the Grammar School
building 378; the Academy 249.
The credits assigned establish the
fact that the buildings are not
highly adapted to school purposes.
We believe it is often the poor
mechanic that complains of his
tools, and we also believe that no
mechanic ought to be willing to
work with poor tools when better
zones are available. Certainly no
argument is necessary to any in
Nelligent mind that Newark is in
ad need of a new school building.

Strikers Must Return Before De
-mands Are Considered.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-Wage in
creases for railroad employees will be
considered by the Railroad Administra-
ton Immediately after the last of the
striking shopmen have returned to work.
Director General Hines said to-day. Re-
quests for increases are expected to come
from all the fifteen railroad unions
which have not yet presented demands.
Mr.. Hines said the problem Of freight
rates was ''inextricably bound up with
the question Of wage advances, indi-
eating that the long expected advance
In rates probably would not fully de-
velop until the wage demands were
settled.
The Interstate Commerce Committee
sent to the House to-day its report rec
ommending immediate passage OF the
Cummins bill. which restores the Inter-
state Commissions right to review rates.
The bill, which already has passed the
Senate, was reported out last week.

''In these reconstruction days n Of
the most important needs Is stability In

Representative Sanders (Ind.). TT Is
the belief of the committee that the
passage of this act, with amendments
proposed. will be a long stride toward
that end"
Car shortage is beginning to be felt.
Director General Hines said to-day, as
the railroad business picks UP with the
advance of the season and the movement
Of crops. Mr.. Hines believes the oper-
ating deficit this month will 70 small.
