FIREMEN FORCED TO

Order to Stop Bi-Monthly
Paper Attributed to Mayor.

The bi-monthly publication the FIRE
mon, which was started by private en-
terprise and taken over by the Uni
formed F1remen's Association. has been
suspended by order of Thomas ]. Dren-
nan, Fire Commissioner. The officers
of the firemen's association were threat
ened with trial on charges in case they
insisted on continuing the publication.
The protest, 1t was learned. came
from the Mayor. His reasons were not
explained by Commissioner brennan,
but It Is thought the profitable adver-
Using which the publication had Sc
cured and the propaganda carried on
through Its columns for improving con-
ditions for the firemen wefe the causes
leading to the Mayors decision
A warning that the publication must
cease was sent out on August l, yelled
as a reminder that under the rules OF
the Fire Department no outside activi-
ties were permitted. Commissioner
brennan in serving the ultimatum on
the hremen is said to have objected es-
peclally to the soliciting OF advertise
ments, to which the answer was made
that professional advertising agents
we're hired for this work.
The firemen will now reopen the fight
for an increase of $50 a year in ali
grades, It is announced. A meeting will
be held In the World Building to-mor-

Patrolman Francis e. Caddell, for

able salmon canning industry.

Patrolman Caddell drew from his vast

has been his cheerful custom for years.
spoke his old time formula:
II hope you will enjoy yourself
Good-by. I wish you luck"
Then he started back to his stall un-
der the elevated stairs. But as Caddell
told It. the stranger did not leave d.
rectly. The words and their information
stirred memory of godspeed that
had made q deep impression on him
many years ago.
He wanted to know II Patrolman Cad
dell had ever been assigned to the Eliza
beth street station in Chinatown, and
when the officer admitted he was there
in 1902 the stranger recalled a for

him out with a suit OF clothes and
money to get a new start. He had gone

STATE TO ENCOURAGE
RURAL TRUCK ROUTES
Commission Hopes to Help
Farmers Market Produce.

The establishment of. motor truck
express lines through the rural sections
OF the State where farmers are having
most difficulty in getting their perish
able produce quickly to markets IL to be
sponsored by a commission appointed
Saturday by Gov. Smith, of which former
Representative Peter Q. Ten Eyck Of AL
bany is chairman.
The Governors Reconstruction Com
mission found that in many cases farm
ers we're unable to get their goods to
New York markets as quickly as Florida
shippers who had the benefit of direct
express service. 1t was stated that the
railroads have little interest in local
freight business, and that farmers with
small shipments for short hauls found
their goods delayed. The commission
estimated that so per cent Of the perish
able produce grown In the States does
not get to market.
In favor Of the motor express lines Il
was said that the delivery OF food by
this means could be accomplished at
three-ffths the cost of railroad deliver
les, aside from the gain in speed. Rural
truck lines are now operated successfully
between Deadwood, S. D., and Sundance,
Wyo., making the run in six hours
against a railroad delivery requiring
three to five days In all there are about
900 motor lines of this sort operated
throughout the country.
The committee will work through
farmers organizations and municipal Of
ficials to encourage the opening of truck
routes. No State appropriation will be
asked for the present. With Mr.. Ter
Eyck on the committee are Frederick 8
Green. State Commissioner OF Highways

culture; william q. Dana, chairman OF

GIRL KEPTCAPTIVE
IN SHIP BY OLDLAW
Rich French Banker Objects to
Red Tape Which Tied Up
15-Year-0ld Niece.
PASSPORT DIsREGARDED
Nobody at Ellis Island to Pass
on Case, Is immigration
Officials Excuse.

Helene Mounier. 10 years old. niece
Of Joseph Arnaud, a wealthy French
banker of the city Of Mexico. virtually
was q prisoner on the Moro Castle OF
the Ward Line after It reached Its dock
in Brooklyn at noon on Saturday until
Q o'clock yesterday morning.
II had always heard that one was
free in America" said the girl yesterday
afternoon at the Hotel Brevoort, land I
shall never forget that was deprived
Of my liberty for the first time in my
life through no fault of my own on
reaching New York. 1t was a terrible
experience"
Helene was kept on the boat for
twenty hours under the vigilant eyes Of
the lines detectives after the immigra-
ton inspectors announced that an old
law says that a child under 16, unac-
companied by Its parents cannot land
without first going to Ellis Island for
examination by the Commissioner of I'M
migration. This regulation was en-
forced in spite of the fact that Helene
was accompanied by her uncle and two
aunts, and that she had passport
signed by the French Consul-General
and vised by the American Consul
General in Mexico.
1t would not have been so bad IL II
had not taken the immigration inspec-
tors 80 long to pass on Helene's case.
The ordinary course Is to take the child
by tug Immediately to Ellis Island. But
this was Saturday and everybody on
Ellis Island had gone home for the hall
holiday.
There II nothing we can do" said
the immigration officials. THE girl will
have to stay on the boat until tomorrow
morning, when there will be officials on
Ellis Island to hear her case"
NJ. Arnaud, already angry over the
refusal of the authorities to take his
word or to recognize the passport, de-
nounced the officials and insisted that
he would not permit his niece to remain
alone on board over night. He declared
| that he was responsible for the child's
safety. and after efforts to get Commits
sioner OF immigration Howe on the tele-
phone had been unsuccessful and cash
bond for the appearance of his niece on
Monday had been refused, he decided to
stay on the ship over night. To this the
officials of the Ward Line objected in
their turn, but M. Arnaud was firm.
Either We stay with Helene or she
goes ashore with u.s." said the irate
banker. and finally the steamship au-
thorities yielded. So the party spent a
long, hot night in the narrow staterooms
Of the Ward liner. where the noises from
the streets and the odors of the wharves
Of South Brooklyn added to their dis
| comfort,
NJ Arnaud represents the Credit
Lyonnais In Mexico and has large finan-
eial and commercial connections there.
This IL his first visit to New York.
"Tt will be my last" he said yesterday,
land I am almost tempted to take the
first steamer on which / can obtain pas
sage to France"
