sary in New York; to make recommen-
dations concerning control or It's dis

ton and Production and the State Legis-
latiye Committee investigating housing
conditions, for the purpose of urging an
immediate investigation of the possibility
of a combine controlling the delivery
and prices of coal in this city. and to
determine whether or not the present
coal shortage is one predetermined by
those controlling the industry in the
hope and expectation of maintaining ex-
tortionate prices.

day. consists of Edward Doyle of the

ONE DEAD, 2 HURT IN
RUM MOTOR WRECK
Injured Men, Found Uncon-
scious, Are Held for Action
of Federal Authorities.

An automobile speeding north on the
Albany Post Road with three men and
what was later described as 200 bottles
of booze, was ditched and overturned
outside the village of Crugers yesterday
morning. The driver, Louis Petra OF
Commercial road. Buffalo, was dead
under the wreckage when rescuers ar
rived, but his companions were only
slightly hurt. They were held as ma
terial witnesses TO await the action of
the Federet authorities on the alleged
transportation of liquor.
Petra's companions. Louis Toror and
John Raidor of 80 Commercial street,
Buffalo. were flung out of the machine
when 1t left the road. They were found
lying stunned in a field beside the road
way.
Besides Petra's body was a shotgun
and in the pockets of his jacket were
eighteen large calibre shells. The crash,
according to the State police, who seized
the freight, broke bottles that were
packed in the rear of the car. An in

The liquor situation in Newark was
enlivened yesterday by a letter from
Samuel Wilson. assistant superintendent
of the New Jersey Anti-Saloon League.
to Mayor Charles p. Gillen. Mr.. Wilson'S
letter followed the appearance of a copy
of a letter in which the Mayor told
"Pussyfoot" Johnson all about the havoc
prohibition has wrought in the city.
Somebody high in authority in the
City Hall is a subject for impeachment"
wrote Mr.. Wilson He then proceeded to
find fault with the Mayors statement
that there are about 10000 small scale
breweries in the New Jersey city, saying
it seemed peculiar that such situation
could exist when there are but 10000
buildings in the whole town.
In Mayor Gillens letter, according to
Mr. Wilson, it was stated that Newark
has consumed five times as much booze
as in normal times. Mr.. Wilson took
occasion to remark that the respon-
sibility for his condition rests in the
fact that Newark has "a Mayor, a Com
missioner of Public Safety and police
force that have not lifted a hand to en-
force the laws of the nation
