New York Plans Gigantic lm- provement on the Hudson
 River Water Front
TAKE TEN YEARS TO BUILD
New System Is to Consist of Wide Piers, Slips and Marginal Streets. With Warehouses and Tracks
 Where Available in Rear.

New York-The greatest water front improvement here in 50 years. involving the removal of 32 antiquated piers along the Hudson river and the erection in their stead of IS new and vastly larger piers of latest design has been planned by Murray Hubert. commissioner of docks, and approved by the sinking fund commission.
 The improvement will cost $5O0OO,- 000 and will require ten years to com- plete. Work is expected to be started next spring.
 This, with the proposed vehicular tunnel to New Jersey, is expected to solve New YorlS's West side dock prob- lem. The new water front system is to consist of wide piers, slips and marginal streets, with warehouses and tracks where available in the rear.
 Will Pay Out in Four Years.
 'sThe cost of construction is expect ed to pay for itself within four years time," said Deputy Dock Commission CT Michael Cosgrove. "A permanent Scd7 W dll lidS DCCh DulAt o'c'i5 'N-S VI tire stretch, no rock will be encoun- tered to a depth of 40 feet, and most of the real estate is owned by the city.
 "These new piers will increase the piep-storage area 50 per cent if they are made only one story" continued Mir. Cosgrove. "But because of the high value of this water front it will be uneconomical to stop even al two stories. They will have the most mod ern appliances for rapid handling of freight, including electric cranes, helpers and hoists Of all kinds.
 "The present lower North river wa ter front is just what it was in 1871 Its slips are so narrow there Is not room in them at once for two big steamships. To afford relief the war department has three times permitted the pier headlines to extend further eutshore. The more these narrow piers were brought cut, the worse the saips became, because boats have beaa continually growing higger..

 ISLAND WELCOME
United States Government Makes Sweeping Changes at the
 Gateway to America.
HARSH ATTENDANTS LEI OUT
Freedom and Sunshine Being Planned for New Arrivals and De- cent Treatment Are Now De-
 manded for immigrants.

New York.--Sweeping changes are being made at America's gateway Ellis island-by Immigration Commits sioner Frederick A. Wallis, who pro poses to make the big immigration sta- tion more comfortable for the newcom- CTS to the United States.
 Freedom and sunshine are being planned for the new arrivals by the commissioner, who has just announced plans for improving conditions in gen. eral on the island.
 Larger buildings are to be asked for, he says, sanitary conditions are to be improved, additional cots provided for those unable to get beds and many other conveniences for the immigrant are to be installed. M
 Harsh Attendants Discharged.
 Kind and decent treatment for all new arrivals has been demanded by Commissioner Wallis, who has already announced the discharge of some of the veteran attendants for alleged harshness or inefficiency in receiving immigrants. Their places have been filled by more courteous, attentive and younger men.
 q propose to make this receiving station representative of all America promises" he said.
 One of the latest improvements by Commissioner Wallis has been the supplying of warm milk to mothers with babies.
 Wants Radicals Removed.
 Commissioner Wallis has appealed to Washington to remove the alleged radicals and anarchists detained al the island for deportation, because o1 crowded conditions at the immigration station.
 "They are defiant lot and should be deported," he explained. They oc. cupy a room that could accommodate couple of hundred immigrants"
 Railroads have also been asked by the commissioner to provide better transportation facilities for the immi grants aud stop employees from sTraftingr from the newcumssA Hs eleo WanS thAm te Dc psepst4y fes

harmful to any sort of foot. They push over the big toe against the next smaller one to bring the large toe in the center of the foot and the point of the shoe, at one and the same time. This means eventual disfigure- ment.
 Heels more than an inch and a half high are injurious; they throw the balance of the body outside the nor nal line. It would be an excellent thing if women would adopt the Eng fish walking boot style for daytime, if they are on their feet much of the time. These have half heels, and are stylish, and usually extra well made. For evenings Cuban and French heels are all right. Then, the feet should be bathed in hot water and soap every night, unless one gets hot bath daily. They need more attention than the rest Of the body since, being encased in leather two-thirds of the time, they get less ventilation than any other part. People with foot trouble would find comfort if they wore open sandals in the house with stockings over the feet.

PRETTY FEET

~ GOD shoes cover multitude of NJ defects in the matter of feet yet every woman wants to have her own feet as naturally pretty as possible. And it is not an easy task to bring feet long disfgured by corns and cal louses into the pink and white and perfect form that nature intended.
 The first thing to do, however, is to make quite sure that the style of shoe being worn is one that agrees with the foot. If new corns come, if the toes are pushed together, you may be sure that special type of footwear had better be discarded. For one thing, sharp pointed shoes are

Marine Officers
 Satisfied With
 Haiti Situation

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The mill tary situation in Haiti and Santo Do- mingo from the point of view of the Marine corps is extremely satisfac- tory" Major General Lejenue, com mandant of the corps, declares in ms annual report to the secretary of the navy made public today.
 A year ago. the bandit situation m Haiti was quite serious" General Le- jeune says, but the present brigade and gendarmerie commanders have handled the situation in ''masterly fashion and now banditry has been almost completely suppressed.
 There has been no serious banditry in San Domingo in the last year. Gen. eraI Lejeune says adding that on his recent visit he found the marines sta tioned there to be in efficient condi- tion.
 The after effects" of the world war have nearly disappeared from the ma rine corps. the commandant continues He believes that both officers and men have overcome the relaxations and un- rest which followed the war and that they arc working unceasingly to main tain the efficiency of the corps at its highest standard
 General Lejeune recommends that l legislation be enacted which will all l low the retirement of marines who served either as warrant or commits
 stoned officers in the world war with pay of the highest grade in which they l served during the emergency. He also | urges the creation of the grade of chie1
 marine gunner, chief Quartermastei clerk and chief pay clerk for the corps the grades to be filled by promotions
