HOSPITAL FUND GOES
FOR POLICE RELIEF
Du Point Regrets Failure of
Building Enterprise.

Coleman du Pont. chairman OF the
police hospital fund, announced yester-
day that the money already raised
would be turned over to the police re-
lief fund. He said the opposition which
had been aroused to the hospital prof.
ect, especially that within the depart
ment itself, reveals a condition I'M
paralleled in the experience of men un-
sefishly devoted to similar movements
for the public welfare.
''It Is unfortunate that a project un-
selfishly conceived and wholly dedicated
TO the good of the police force cannot be
disassociated from political or Individual
motives" Mr.. Du Pont said.
"A large group of men prominent In
the business life OF the city and nation
stood ready to back the police hospital.
in the belief that the guardians OF tho
public welfare and their wives and chill
dren should be properly cared for in
sickness and accident. am afraid that
the delaying or Withholding of the hos
pital for policemen at this time Is going
to be very serious and probably means
that there will be many more years de-
lay before this charitable and humane
institution can be built; because IT
would probably be with great difficulty
that the active interest of a similar
group of public spirited citizens could
again be enlisted in this cause

wornen's stockings can't be sold in

as Magistrate Mortimer Brown, sitting
in the New Jersey Avenue Court. Brook
lyn, decided yesterday. no one with COM
mon or any other kind Of sense would
regard them as food product. His de-
cision was made for the special benefit
of Esther Rappaport and Rudolph Kauf-
man, who were arraigned before him
charged with offering for sale from a
push cart at Wyona street and Atlantic
avenue openwork. lace and other Win
ter varieties Of hose.
For the violation OF the foodstuffs
ordinance they paid fines OF 70 each
and heard Magistrate Brown recite an
opinion, which went as follows:
While 1t is true that Outlines a stock
ing displays radiant and varigated COL
ors and wonderfully artistic designs In
GLIDING those of flowers unknown to
even Nature herself; and while. beyond
doubt, stockings are frequently purely
ornamental, nevertheless a stocking by
process of change or evolution can never
encroach upon the field of the natural
and the real by developing into either
a flower or q plant, although 1t Is con-
ceivable that under sorae circumstances
a stocking might materially aid the
growth OF both flowers and plants"
AS Kaufman was leaving court he
turned to his woman business partner.
HE gives the truth" he remarked.
"That was a fine thing he said. Y'gotta

CRAIG WOULD FREEZE
LAGUARDIA IN CITY HALL
You're a Complete Official
Failure IL Retort.

Comptroller Charles L. Craig's latest
attempt to curb the attacks of F. H. La
Guardia. President of the Board Of AL
dermen. against him In the Board OF
Estimate meetings came yesterday In
the shape OF threat to freeze the Al
dermanic President into submission.
When the question came up OF paying
the New York Steam Company for heat
for City Hall La Guardla served notice
he would vote for payment of no more
bills OF any sort unless done on con-
tract.
''If had my way they would shut OFF
the heat in City Hail." retorted the
Comptroller.
Nothing you could do would make
me mad" replied La Guard!a. You're
a complete Official failure"
La Guardia registered his appearance
at the board meeting as the members
began considering the advisability OF a
thicker concrete floor to keep the water
out OF the new Court House basement.
La Guardia declared that such q change
would not have been necessary had the
Comptroller seen to 1t that proper sound
ings were made before excavation be-
gan.
The Court House question was put
over until next meeting. as was also a
request for 100000 to meet a Street
Cleaning Department deficit for final
garbage and ash disposal expenses. An
appropriation of 100000 for snow re-
rnoval was granted.
