claimed to have deposited the $500 In

Q. That was precisely the amount that

paid out7
A Yes.
O. Did It not strike you as suspicious
for this reason: A check had been put

dence itself showed that he was only Is
years old, and apparently somebody had
helped him to get II oashed. Did that
strike you as suspicious?
A. 1t would now, sir. yes. Looking
back on these matters In light Of what

strike me as suspicious.
Four Involved Now.
Direct testimony involving at least
four employees or former employees OF
the State Industrial Commission In the
alleged graft ring came from William
A. Herman, the adjuster upon whose
story the investigation is largely being
conducted and whose dismissal Manager
Baldwin testified yesterday he had rec
commended. At the morning session
Benjamin Asserson, a painter living at
SS4 Flushing avenue Brooklyn, testified
he had given up $1,000 to former
employee of the commission for the
quick settlement of $4,000 claim.
Asserson swore that he had been
visited by a man who said his name
was Friedlander and who represented
himself as coming from the commission.
Friedlander. t. witness said. had told
him that he coLNAot expect to get more
than 1000 for hiNump sum settlement.
but had afterward suggested that he
(Friedlander) night be able to arrange
a settlement for $4,000. The witness
said that he finally accompanied Fried
lander to the office of the State Insur-
ance Fund, that he received check
for $4,000. out Of which he gave Fried
lander $1,000.
Herman the States witness, was
asked IL he was interested in or re-
ceived any part of the Asserson settle
ment money. He replied that he had.
that the total amount deducted was
about $1,000 and that his share had been
several hundred. The money. the wit
ness said, was paid over to him by
Samuel Epstein, whom he identified as a
former interpreter for the commission
and who he said was now in the employ
of Isidore Herr. a private banker Of 224
West Thirty-fourth street. at whose In
stitution certain of the settlement checks
are alleged to have been cashed
The examination of Manager Baldwin
will be continued to-day.

ARMY POULTRY
SALES FASTENED
Retail Butchers Are Asked to
Buy Governments Roast
ing Chickens.

A drive to aid the city of New York
In disposing of the armys surplus frozen
poultry, which is being distributed by
A Slz. Inc. 416-422 West Fourteenth
street, was started yesterday afternoon
by Arthur Williams. Federal Food Ad-
ministrator for this city. and the Retail
Master Butchers Committee of the Fair
Price Committee.
The drive got of to a swift start when
the subcommittee decided to appeal to
each of the 5000 retail butchers in the
greater city to buy one or more boxes
of the roasting chickens and help the
Government give consumers q chance to
eat chicken at prices below the pre-
vailing market rates.
There are 100000 pounds of the Gov
eminent poultry In the 'freezers In the
metropolitan district and II the 5000
butchers will guarantee to buy for re-
tail sale three boxes apiece Uncle Sam
VIII be able to get rid quickly of his
big mess of roasting chinkens among
New Workers..
The chickens are being retailed at 81
cents a pound and the butcher gets four
cents pound for handling.
The distribution of the army poultry
began Monday and up to last evening
only 1000 boxes, weighing $4,000
pounds, had found their way into the
shops II this rate of sale was kept
up-12.500 pounds a day--it would take
five months to dispose of all this food
1t came out at the meeting of the
retail butchers committee that one of
the reasons why butchers are not COB
bling up the roasting chickens is because
the market is being flooded with cold
storage chicken that had to be released
owing to the expiration of the cod
storage twelve months limit. These
chickens are smaller than the army's
surplus roasting chickens and are SELL
ing for less. p. Q. Foy the market re-
porter, who accompanied Mr.. Snz to
the committee meeting. explained that
these smaller chickens are being sold
"a cents per pound below the price they
once commanded. Mr.. Foy said every
pound of these birds sold in the market
means a loss to the big packers, who
are releasing them. of cents a pound.
One member OF the committee said
he had been able to buy a large quantity
OF fresh killed chickens on Wednesday
at 2S cents a pound.
There has been an increase in the
wholesale price OF beef, ranging from
one-half to one and half cents a
pouio, out ZIG SoHlIulttee Oh master re-
tail butchers agreed to reduce their
margins SO that the price to the con-
sumer will remain unchanged.
The week end fair price list for meats
will appear to-day. Oscar s. Straus,
representing the fair price committee,
will sit in with the Wholesale Meat
Dealers Committee of the Fair Price
Committee this afternoon. 1t will be a
part of his duties to explain to the pub
lie why meat prices are advanced, in
case they go up.

Indignant jewellers in the High Bridge

Marsh In the Morrisania court yesterday
that they could stand limited amount
OF vocal melody in the day time and
they could even tolerate it occasionally
In the evening, but that when 1t rolled

made sleep impossible and called for the
interposition Of the laws strong right
arm.
Michael Alanso, 2S, a cobbler living at
21b2 Aqueduct avenue, who explained that
he wanted to be a second Caruso," was
the cause Of yesterdays anti-musical
demonstration. After heated telephone
messages had been received at tho High
Bridge police station Tuesday night Pa
trolman Adolph Schuber went around to
Alanso's cobbling shop. He could hear
the resonant rendition of 20 Sole Mo
a block away.
You'd better shut up" advised Pa
trolman Schuber. who regards the Ital-
ian operate school as obsolete. Alanso
did not even pause, the policeman said,
so a summons was handed him to APP
pear in court.
''In the old country 1 could sing as
much as ! pleased and /, didn't know
there was q law against II here" the
cobbler protested to the magistrate.
There isn't" admitted the court, but
when 1t prevents others from sleeping 1t
becomes a nuisance and must be sup
pressed. even though the suppression be
crime against art II you must sing
close your doors and windows and lower
your voice"
Alanso pondered for moment and
then his face frightened.
"Ill tell you what I'll do" he said,
"Pll keep up my singing. but I'll do It In
the Bronx Park"
Eyes, that viii be fine" agreed Magis-
trate Marsh.

control over It until I study its simple
and excellent mechanism. fits front
wheel can turn in any direction, its
steering gear is strong and easily man
aged, and it is made entirely of wood.
Both carts are also of wood, as well
as the mule and horse, and all are
well painred and strongly put togeth-
err. The cars are painted red, white
and blue, so | know they are made in
our own country. The rag babies we
made ourselves, and although they are
"of crudeness," they are none the
less belo7ed. The blocks were made
BY measure at wood yard. Being
large and easily handled, a child can
build gates, bridges and platforms
with them big enough to walk under
or upon, and strong enough to stand
firm after they are built.
Our older children when they were
small played principally with imported
dolls dressed in native costumes. And
can remember that my brother and
had handsome books brought from
England, that my finest dolls were
French and his regiments of toy sol
diers came mostly from the land of
militarism.
But our baby boy, born during the
world war and forced to rely on sturdy,
homemade toys, is much better off.
Lesson for Mothers,
There is a two-fold lesson here for
us mothers. One concerns the chill
dren themselves and the other goes far
afield into the laws of economics, world
production and the like.
We have found that our own sub
stantial, wooden, easily-handled play
things are what our children need and
want. Children's books we have
aplenty, the most artistic, | suppose,
in the world. And then we can de-
mand well-made, pretty American
dolls. 1t only remains for us to hold
to all these, and prove our patriotism
by refusing to buy foreign manufac-
tured toys, even if they are put on
the market again later on.
A far cry, isn't it, from baby boy
with his "toot-toot, ding-a-lang, chu-
chu,' on the piazza, to the law of sup.
ply and demand and the regulation OF
one of the great industries of the
world? But in just such ways we are
now finding out how great problems
must be handled. We are going back
to our earlier and simpler days, when
we shall discard the nonessentials as
SO much waste and rubbish. Let us
begin, then, at the beginning and stick
to toys--made in America.

How New York Got Nickname.

"City of Gotham" is nickname of

an ancient village in England, whose

stupidity. This smart trick in pre-
tending to be fools gave rise to the
expression "the wise men of Gotham"
and the story of "the three wise men
of Gotham who went to sea In bowl"
The name was first applied to New
York city in humorous magazine
called Salmagundi, started in 1907 by
Washington Irving and two or three
others, in which they made fun of the
professions of some of the ''wise men
of Gotham" meaning the New York
