LIE Roy Believed ON Liner
Bound for Rio Janeiro
Man Resembling Photograph of
Trunk SLAYER Said to Have
Joined Dryden's Grew

Lieutenant Michael Lyons, of the
Weehawken detective bureau, yester
day added weight to reports that
Eugene lie Roy. sought in connection
with the Detrot-New York trunk mur-
der, is believed to be aboard the Dry
den, of the Lamport & Holt line, bound
for Rio de Janeiro.
Lieutenant Lyons declared that a
man named Harry Marriott, who had
been member of the Dryden crew and
who has been transferred to the Rem
brandt of the same line, reported to
him the presence of q suspected stran-
ger aboard the Dryden. Marriott said
the man bore striking resemblance to
the photograph Of LIE Roy published in
the newspapers.
Marfett told Lieutenant Lyons that
when the Dryden was preparing to sail
the stranger applied to him for place
in the crew The stranger borrowed a
quarter, saying he had spent his last
cent. The day after the Dryden sailed
from New York Marflett noticed lie Roy s
picture in the papers and came to the
conclusion it was the photograph of
the man who had sailed on the Dryden.
In an effort to identify the man as
LIE Roy the police kept the wireless busy
Yesterday. Orders were sent to high
seas to arrest the man if he answered

Dr. Heist IS Death
rOUes His Theory
Spent Last Hours Discuss
ing Battle Between Dis
ease Germs and Blood

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 10.-To die
according to his own proved theory was
the fate of DR.. George D. Heist, who
spent his last hours on Sunday dis
cussng the progress of the battle of
disease germs with the protecting quail
tiles of the human blood
Dr. Heist, who was research worker.
succumbed to cerebro spinal meningitis
at the Jewish Hospital. The disease
had been one of his special studies and
as he talked with his attending .physi-
clans he described the symptoms of the
approach of the end, which he had
proved scientifically he would not be
able to withstand.
Dr. Heist's work showed that immu-
nlty or susceptibility to a particular
germ in any individual could be shown
by testing the power Of the individuals
blood of killing, or failing to kill, the
particular germ. The method is now
known as the Heist-Lacy method BY
the method which he had invented DR..
Heist proved that he himself was sus-
cpetiblc to cerebro spinal meningitis
The physician was a research worker
in the Jules Z. Mastbaum Research
Laboratory of the Jewish Hospital. In
his brief career he made many i'm
portant contributions to medical
science. His research work on pneu-
monia, III association with DR.. Solomon
Soils Cohen, had attracted widespread
attention.
He was one of the few men who had
isolated the germ Of infantile paraly-
sis. With DR.. Myer Soils Cohen and
DR.. John A. Kalmer, he made a study
of that disease. His most recent work
on dlphtheria has not been published.
he most importan discovery of DR..
Heist was in connection with the
power the blood possesses of killing or
inhibting the growth of germs. Work
ing with others he found that this
power to kill the germ of nfantle
paralysis was possessed in high degree
by rabbits, which do not take the dis
ease. and was absent in humans, who
are susceptible to it,
Born in this city in 1885, Dr.. Heist
was graduated from jefferson Medical
College in 1918.

Plan for Snow Removal
Laid as City Swclters
More Than S4,OOO,OOO Will
Be Used TO Keep the
Streets Omen

On a day when Grover A. Whaler
and practically everybody else in New
York was suffering from the heat and
humidity, plans were being made by
the Commissioner of Plant and Struc-
lures for clearing the streets of snow
during the coming winter.
Machinery and not men will under
take the task Of removing snow from
New.Iork streets in the future. The

$4,000 for garages. Under Mr..
Whalen's plans all of that will be
needed. He discussed yesterday the
snow-removing devices with which the
city will be equipped when cold
weather arrives.
According to Mr. Whalen the money
appropriated has been devoted to the
purchase of 100 tractors, 212 fve-ton
motor trucks, each with capacity of
six cubic yards $50 two-ton trucks, of
four cubic yards capacity; $50 cater
plller tractors, 800 Climax snow plows
and a monster machine which does the
work of ten men and which is used for
compressng snow.
New York City, said Mr.. Whalen,
spent S6,000,000 last winter in remov-
ing snow and didn't succeed in getting
the streets clean until April's sunshine
helped out on the job. During the
coming winter, with the feet of trac-
tors and the odds anAends of snow

believes that the snow can be removed
in half the'time and at half the cost
He said yesterday that the machinery
probably will pay for itself in year.
In view of the expense and inconven-
fence caused by snow last winters Mr..
Whalen doesn't believe that the initial
expense involved in the purchase of
the machinery will bring forth any
protests

The Tribune Fresh Air Fund


Last Saturday The Tribune Fund
stated that it had scheduled 1.700 W.
cations to begin during the succeeding
two weeks, and the prophecy was made
that this total would be increased to
1000 or more before the fortnight was
past.
The total for the two weeks has al
ready increased to 1924.
The country folks are rushing to
the. rescue of the little "fellers" who
look out upon the world from behind
the prison bars Of poverty and priya-
ton: During the first two days Of this
week they have added 524 offers of
hospitality to an already generous list.
They realize, do these country Fresh
Ar hosts, that the summer is on the
wane and that Little Johnnie and Susie
must get off to the country soon. II
they are to get there at all this year.
The result is that, as the summe
wanes, the weekly totals of Fresh
Airs" sent to the country wax greater.
Next week will exceed all it's predeces
sors of 1920 with its tota-as it stands
to-day-of 1861. Even this fine num-
ber will not be the final total--there
will be further additions.
And the friends of Fresh Air chill
dren who give money to pay railroa d
fares and other expenses of the chill
dren's outings, instead of hospitality.
are generous, too. This morning the
funds total of contributions stands
within striking distance of s5O.OOO
Before the day is over that financial
milestone should be passed.
Throughout the summer so far the
outgoing tide of children and the in
coming tide of money have about kept
pace. The whole number OF vacations
provided to date just about eats up the
$4,000 contributed, at 81 for each wa
cation. The fund has four $4,000 mile
stones yet to pass before the summers
work is done.
Will they be passed? The fund be-
lleves tht the public has faith enough
IN Fresh Air vacations to see to it that
they arc. 1t is going ahead on that
basis. 1T intends to start a child to
the country to fill every one of the
1924 places offered for the next two
weeks.
That means that something more
than $4,000 in contributions must. be
received in that time. Will the money
glvers still keep pace with the hospital
ity givers?
Yesterday 442 children began vaca-
TONS
To-day 108 join them.
Tomorrow 260 more 90 forth.
The bill for the three days is $5,670.
Part of yesterdays bill for
chlldren's vactions was paid by
children who earned the money they
provided. They were having glorious
vacations themselves and wanted to
share their joys.
The father of one tells how they did
it:
Dear Sirs:
Enclosed you will find my personal
check for $40 to represent the pro
ceeds of fair given by five little
