CITIZENS WILL VISIT
NEW DORM|TORIES
Sunday Afternoon Set as Time for
Inspection Tour by Members of
Chamber of Commerce and
Their Wives

Next Sunday afternoon, from to
. o'clock, will be open house" at
r. c. McCroskey hall and Community
hall, the two new rooming houses
for girls, for the members of the
chamber of commerce and their
wives. 1t had been planned to visit
the new buildings Tuesday of this
week, but it was thought best to
postpone the tour of inspection until
later. The guests will be ushered
through the two buildings by guides
from the college. The chamber
members are asked to report first at
McCroskey hall, where guides will be
assigned for the various groups for
the inspection of the two new build
ings McCroskey hall was complet-
ed late last week and was in readi-
ness for the young ladies Monday.
The 95 girls who will reside in Com
munity hall were asked to time their
arrival so that they could be assigned
the finishing touches having been put
on that building but a few hours
previous to that time. The contrac-
tors exerted herculean efforts to
have the buildings completed for the
opening of the school year and their
success was matter of much salts
faction to college officials as well as
to the young ladies who will occupy
the new buildings.
Community hall was constructed
by funds raised by the Community
Building association, in which many
local citizens are stockholders. It
will be rented to the college by the
association until such time as funds
are available for its purchase by the
institution.

GasCompany MayRefund
5000, 600 to Consumers
Appellate Division Orders Re-
turn of Difference Between
so and 05 Cent Rate

Unless the Court of Appeals holds
to the contrary, a decision handed
down by the Appellate Division yester-
day will have the effect of compelling
the Kings County Lighting Company
to return more than 100000 to it's
consumers.
The gas company appealed to the
Appellate Division from the decision
of Justice Greenbaunl, who denied the
company an injunction to restrain the
Attorney General and other authorities
from enforcing the so cents thou
sand cubic feet rate. In the mean
time the Kings County Lighting Com
pany has been charging IS cents a
thousand, placing the extra Is cents
in q fund to be returned to consumers
in case the courts upheld the rate fixed
by the Legislature, which the company
contended was confscatory.
The Appellate Division upheld JUS
tice Greenbaum in refusing the in
junction and ordered the company to
return the impounded fund.

Negroes Dance at Ball
Of Girls High School
No Hostility Shown Toward Col.
Ored Guests Who Remained
in Own Corner

Six negro members of the gradu-
ating class of Brooklyn Girls High
School attended their class dance last
night in the Hotel Margaret, despite
the protest and argument that has
been going on all week concerning
their presence there. They brought
with them two other girls and eight
negro men and the eight couples
danced in one corner of the room all
evening. There were thirty or forty
white couples present.
There was no disorder and no out
ward hostility toward the negroes. 1t
is understood that many members of
the senior class informed DR.. William
F'elter, principal Of the school, that
they would not attend the ball if the
negroes were admitted. To this Dr..
Felter replied that the negro girls
were members of the senior class and
either they would be invited to attend
or there would be no ball.
w. E. B. Dubois, q negro, whose
daughter protested to him against her
threatened exclusion from the ball and
who took the matter up with the Board
OF Education, dropped in for a minute
during the evening to see if things
were going as he wished and went
away apparently contented,

Curran Would Aid Veterans
Board Asked to Favor Men in
Granting Newsstand Permits

Borough President Henry II. Curran,
at the meeting Of the Board of Esti-
mate yesterday, requested that an old
resolution of the beard in relation to
the issuance of permits for news
stands be amended so as to give the
preference to disabled soldiers. He
said he thought this would be a fair
thing to do. The matter went over for
week.
Major La Guardia, President of the
Board of Aldermen, announced he
would oppose the request.
II think the United States govern
ment is able and should. take care of
these disabled men who fought for
their country" he said. 81 have seen
one-legged men in uniform begging on
the streets, and wounded soldiers in
mental positions. The time has come to
stop. this condition. If to give the
disabled man who offered his life in
the defence Of his country, the poor
privilege of peddling papers, is all
that the government can do, then it is
an outrage"

Charges Johnson
"DOuble Crossed''
Former Backers
Los Angeles Publisher Saws
if Senator Carries Califor-
MIA by Small Majority 1t
Will Weaken His Chances

Harry Chandler, publisher of "The
Los Angeles Times" which is support
ing Herbert Hoover for the Presidential
nomination, said here yesterday that it
should be made clear that MANY of the
former supporters Of Hiram w. John
son were deserving the Senator because
he had double CLOSED" them in the
past. He declared that voters should
understand that if Johnson wins in the
primary in California by no more than
a bare majority he will have been seri-
ously weakened as national posi-
bility.
Mr.. Chandler added that Johnson's
alliance with his former enemy, Will
lam Randolph Hearst, did not help his
chances, and had caused conside BILE
uneasiness.
Johnson" said Mr.. Chandler. twas
Wilson's fairy godfather in 1916. lust
as he has become his Nemesis now by
drawing to his support as a bitter
ender all the opponents of the league
OF nations in any form, capitalizing, in
other words, vital international stu
alton for his own selfish ends. There
are an astonishing number Of Repub-
llcans in California who might have
stuck to johnson despite his other de-
fects,. but who cannot support him be-
cause of this self-seeking misuse of a
world crisis and this uncompromisinr
opposition to a policy in which they
believe.
"California is uneasy over the re-
1terated statement of Johnsons po-
11tlcal and financial hacker, William
randolph Hearst. that there will be a
1nlrd party if the Republicans turn
remember all the bitter attacks through
the years Of Hearst on johnson and
Johnson on Hearst, and now that thew
nave formed this alliance they are in
cllned to believe that in the past each
man was telling the truth about the
other. '''e
Now, Hearst having once or twice
tried to be elected President himself
and having failed. the people out in my
state are worrying for fear that he is
cunning now for the Presidency by
proxy. In other words, they are keenly
aware that he virtually made himself
Mayor of New York by electinc his own
creature, Hylan, whom he could control.
Another phase of Johnsons cam
palgn IN the East which can be illumi-
mated by the folks back home is his
claim that he has no financial backing
al" 70 eue representative or the PLAIN
people. Nine of his twenty-six Cali
fornia delegates are millonaires, their
combined rating totaling $150,000, 900,
and the other seventeen are known as
well-to-do men, quite able to put up
a very sizeable campaign fund.
Hearst's "Chicago Examiner" admitted
two weeks ago that $4,000 already had
been raised.
"Moreover, l have direct personal
knowledge that Johnson's people have
been soliciting contributions from
many of CALIFORNIA; largest corpora
tions. When this is considered in
conjunction with the fact that these
same corporations are at the mercy Of
the commissions which Johnson ere
ated, one can draw ones own conclu-
sions as to whether or not they will
respond to these appeals"

Subway Hopes Postponed
Defeat of jerks Bills Said to
Preclude Building

The effect on the Interborough Rapid
Transit Company of the failure of the
jerks bills to pass the Legislature.
which apparently will preclude any
fare increases for some time to come,
was discussed yesterday by James L..
Quackenbush, counsel for the INTERIOR
ough. While Mr.. Quackenbush said it
would not mean receivership for the
company on July 1, when $5,O0O,000 Of
its obligations become due, he was un-
certain whether it could avoid bank
ruptcy until January /, 1921.
"Unless the city officials see the light
IN some manner" said Mr.. Quacken-
bush, "the failure of the jerks bills to
pass the Legislature will mean the five
cent fare for another year, or at least
until new Legislature is convened.
The need of new subways is critical,
but they cannot be built unless the
credit Of the company is restored, so
we can get the funds. 1t takes five
years to build new subway, and that
means five years more of crowding. We
can't get any more people in the cars
on the present subway, and no more
trains can be run during rush hours"
