benefit enacted in New York State in
the last twenty years was passed while
the Democratic party was in control.

tween his views and mine on this sub

it from the standpoint of favor to

His plan for a state subsidy for
health centers, Governor Smith de-
clarcd, was defeated by the same little
combination in the Legislature which
has for two years been afraid to pass
measures that might reflect too much
credit or a Democratic Governor.'

Fire Steals Waxen Children

Woman Presiding at Block Party Doll Booth Il
Severely Burned Trying to Save Charges
Torch Drips Flame

Forty or fifty littlc girls clustered
with materially yearning eyes last
night at the doll booth at the block
party given for the parochial school
OF the Church of Our. Lady Of Lourdes,
Brooklyn. Gayly decorated booths and
tables lined both curbs Of Vanderveer
Street, from Rushwick Avenue to the
fence Of Evergreens Cemetery, a band
was playing and couples were dancing
on the pavement. but the little girls
had eyes only for the booth at which
Mrs. Ella McDermott, of 40 Granite
Street, presided
Hers was the priceless privilege Of car

and Annie and Grace and the other

"O-o-o-h The lamp! Look out
for the lamp.' suddenly shrilled an
Alice or Edith or Kate--or maybe it
was a Mary. Annie or Grace. Anyhow,
the childish shrek turned all eyes to
the fnring gasoline lamp at Mrs.
McDermott's booth, which revealed the
beauties of the fluffy. waxen lodestones
on the table before her.

1t was sputtering and hiccoughing and
showered in all directions. A chorus
of shrill screams, vibrant with imminent
tragedy went up from the group Of
children.
"Save Alicel Save Edith Save Kate
Save Mary Save Annie! Save Grace!'
they shrieked in such animated con-
fusion that only here and there the
name of q coveted doll appeared.
The effect on the block party was i'm
mediate and disastrous. The parents Of
the flesh and blood Alices, Ediths, Hates.
Marys, Armies and Graces rushed pcll
NELL to the spot where balcful glare
was spreading about tho doll booth,
each convinced that his own offspring
was the source of that fame and smoke.
Mrs. McDermott strove heroically to
save her charges and snatched first one
and then another from the table, buzz
il was too late. The whole booth WAS
ablaze and in a moment Mrs. McDer-
mott was surrounded by flames and her
dress was a.rc in dozen places.
The children, in tears at the catas-
trophe, sough: to leave the hated spot
and caused new confusion in the throny

her withdrawal further than TO say
that she attended a meeting of the

Letters Favoring League
Suggestions Offered to Pres;-

~" i"e 1r6uno's Woshinotom Bureau
WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.-Suggestions
MADE TO President Wilson on the League
OF Nations by former President Will
lam howard Taft, while the President
was at the Paris Peace Conference. are
70 be made public by the Democratic
national Committee as arguments
against the Republican national ticket.
The letters are said to reveal that
MIR. TAFT offered several suggestions re-
garding the league covenant which the
ttes'aent accepted to bring the docu-
ment more into harmony with the Re-
Puoiican viewpoint. The Democrats ex-
Pect oy the correspondence. it is under
stood' to convince the country that the
PRESIDENT had right, from the assur-
ahces sent him by Mr.. Taft, to expect
sufnclent Republican support when he
returned to obtain the Senate's con-
sent to ratification Of the Versailles
treaty.
The Wilson-Taft correspondence. it
IS SAID, was given to the Democratic
National Committee by the White
House without the knowledge or con-
sent of Mr.. Taft. 1t is understood.
however, that the former President has
no objection to the publication of The
letters and has no fears that the Amer
lean public will be misled by their last
minutes use in behalf Of the Wilson
league.
There was some speculation here to-
day as to whether Mr.. Taft will fill his
speaking engagements for the Republi~
can committee now that Senator Har-
ding has declared definitely for the re-
lection by this country of the obliga-
tons contained in the Wilson league.
The majority opinion seems to- be that
Mr.. Taft will not cancel his speaking
dates. This is based on the view that
Senator Harding did not change his
position IN the Des Moines speech, but
merely reiterated, in different way, it
is true, the thing he has been saying
from the start that he Will accept no
obligation imparing the sovereignty
and freedom Of the United States.
