OF YOUNG PEOPLE.

years leader and director of the
Young Peoples Missionary society of
the First Methodist church, arranged
and presented an interesting program
Sunday evening at the 6 80 o'clock

In the recent campaign for mem
bership among the junior boys of the
congregation number of new names
have been added TO the list, with sew
eral asking for membership at last
nights gathering. The entire mem
bership now consists of more than
of the improvement in positive film
and also the lens equipment on pro-
lection machines which gives thirty
per cent more light. This was no.
ticeable to all who had seen the pic
ture before.
The picture is now III two acts
and an intermission of minutes be-
tween acts. A full orchestra &C.

The last two performances take
place today, matinee at 2:30 and

writer's to penning letters expressive
of the enthusiasm and photoplay

among them is Fannie Hurst, who, in
letter to Richard A. Rowland, pres

says:

the production Of $4,000 apartments by
these companies, to be rented at PEI
cent on the cost, for the very simple
reason that this housing will SO re-
duce existing profteering rents that
we will save two to ten times the diff
ference we pay in fare. We kill two
birds with one stone; we settle tive
vsxations, dangerous problems, and
best of all, the housing and the fare
cost no less than nothing, for the
whole blooming cost is borne by that
highwayman, the rent profiteer.
The foregoing plan involves the i'm
provement of great areas Of low-priced
land on the untraveled new lines, thus
older lines. 1t involves the rehabilita.
tion of wornout systems and All en-
phatic and needed increase in service
1t restores the transfer system, the
abolition of which has proved so costly
and burden to the travelling public
1t involves heavy increased tax valu-
alton, of which the city stands In need
The buildings constructed under this
plan, by the companies, would revert
to the city, and then sale could help
retire the subway bonds. ANY excess
of fare received above the cost Of these
$4,000 apartments and what is finally
determined to be an adequate return to
the companies could be applied to the
same object. The increased fare (paid
for by the rent profiteer)will at once
release the city's money for other and
intended uses. The Rapid Transit act
intended that the subways should earn
their board and keep without recourse
to taxation," and the inclusion of the
subway defieit in the tax budget Is an
evasion of the spirit. if not the letter
of the law.
II this plan Is practical and feasible
then New York has It's choice Of two
options-either to pay certain gigan-
tic sum In exorbitant rentals for an
indefinite time or an amount in in
creased fares OF about half or possibly
one-third of the total Of the unduly
high rents, for it follows as the night
the day that the erection, by the transit
companies of multi-family houses in
great quantity will at once cause q
heavy recession in existing, needlessly
high rents.
1t cannot be hammered home too
hard TO New Workers that building for
the average man and his family cannot
possibly ensue for many years TO come.
We don't want charity building; we
certainly don't want municipal housing,
but we must have homes, We want TO
pay for them the same as sve pay for our
other material needs. Hence this plan
of paying for our multi-family houses
oursesves (via the pocket of the
profteer) and forcing she traction
companies, by giving them O square
deal, to become the providers of our
needed housing.

Learned New Danger From Experience
knowledge that could be obtained
only as the result of such developments
has brought Mr.. Singer and Mr.. Burton
together once more for the purpose of
saving the city's. hotels and theaters
from being surrounded by human
tide of men and women, workers in the
needle industry, situation which
would lead in time to the transposition
of the theatres and hotels to another
section of the city, which would in
volve a great waste of money and
energy.
By extending the area OF restriction
west for block and one-half and for
twenty blocks north and south the
witals Of city life, the theater and the
hotel, will be protected from being
overridden by trade expansion. The
enlargement Of the restricted zcne will
open much more suitable areas for de-
velopment by the needle trade. The
new needle trade centers are west Of

strictions are operative.

theatrical interests can feel secure in

"In common with all theatrical pro-
