Jennie Trains on Jamaica Jazz
For Fast Worker as u Rzx7laevexy
Five Months Casi Of Poland, She Learns English in
Weeks, All the Dance Steps, and Nlsrates to
Manhattan; Police, at Sisters Plea, Seek Her

Jennie Rappaport, seventeen years
old, of $40 Fulton Street, Jamaica, L..
L., is being sought by the police
through q general alarm sent out yes
terday at the request of Mrs. Mary
Bruckner, her sister, with whom Miss
Rappaport has lived since she reached
here from Chortkow, Poland, five
months ago. Mrs. Bruckner told detec-
tives of the Delaney Street police sta
ton that her sister had gone crazy
over jazz"
According to Mrs. Bruckner, she re-
ceived a letter six months ago from
her mother in Chortkow, saying that
war had reduced the family to starva-
ton, and begging her to take one of
tho seven children, who were without
proper clothing and food.
Mrs. Bruckner sent $500 to pay Jen-
MES passage. The girl came to New
York and went to live with the Bruck-
ners, who supplied her with complete
outfit Of clothing, including millinery
dancing pumps and general outfit of
feminine knickknacks. Jennie attend
ed a private school in Jamaica and
took dancing lessons. She learned to
speak English in eight weeks, Mrs
Rruckner said, and attending several

Says Jersey Fare Dispute
rs Case for State Court
Official Criticizes Counsel Cor
Seeking Federal
DecisiCr

Counsel for the Public Service Street
Railway Company of New Jersey was
severely criticized for taking the rate
dispute into the United States Courts
yesterday by Judge John j. Tracey,
president of the New Jersey Board
Of Public Utility Commissioners The
criticism was contained in a statement
in which Judge Tracey said that the
Commissioners would contest the caNe
and be represented by counsel.
The cight-cent fare sought by the
company, Judge Tracey declares
would, # allowed by the courts, in
crease the operating revenues of the
company by S4,20O,000 over the amount
now received. as opposed TO an in
crease of 100000 allowed by a de-
cision of the board through the charge
of two cents for transfers.
In the statement Judge Tracey says
in part: "The company might have had
the case reviewed by the states courts
in quick time. 1t took only few
weeks to obtain q decision from the
New Jersey Supreme Court in the ten
cent fare case. The judges OF the New
Jersey Supreme Court are able men
and as quick to protect the consttu-
tlonal rights OF lltlgahU as any court
in the country
at is to be hoped that the unan-
nounced rush upon the United States
Courts will not result in precipitate
action. The case is too important to
the people Of the state, too massive in
size, both as to the financial amount
involved and the volume of testimony
taken, to be disposed Of at sum
mary hearing like that set for the
18th instant"

Three days ago, the girls uncle
called up Mrs. Bruckner on the tele-

back to Jamaica. The uncle explained,
Mrs. Bruckner says, that Jennie had
not been in bed before a. NJ. once
since reaching New York City.
Mrs Bruckner came to Manhattan
and was met by the girl with fiat re-
fusal to return to Jamaica. She told
Police Captain O'Connor that Jennie
said Jamaica was like a Polish grave
yard and she wanted to live. Detec-
tires were summoned. They threatened
Jennie with arrest if she did not re-
turn to Jamaica. Under this compul-
sion the girl acquiesced.

Bruckner summoned Jennie for break
fast it was found that her bed had not
been slept in. The police were notified
and search was made for the girl, with
