Donahue Declares
Board of Education Head
Was Not Specializing on
Margin, Says Friend in
Affidavit at Meeting

Aiming S. Prall, president of the
Board of Education, referred yesterday
at the opening of the meeting of the
board to publicity which had been
given to suit brought against him
and Lawrence Donahue by Michael
Athias to recover on a note for $4,000
and with the boards consent had the
secretary read an affidavit by Mr..
Donahue concerning the note.
In the affidavit, M Donahue said
that the note represented money he
had borrowed from Mr.. Prall when
their business and personal relations
were close. The understanding was. he
said, that the note was to be paid in
fifteen days. He did not do this, he
said, but subsequently paid $4,000 Of
the amount, receiving from Mr.. Prall
his additional note for $4,000, which he
intended to return to Mr.. Prall after
signing the affidavit.
"Much has been stated in the public
print" the affidavit continued, Con
corning the activities Of Mr.. Prall in
certain stock transactions alleged to
have been made on margin through the
1lIIu VI MUTIlSuH O. lOWuSSIlus Ill
justice to Mr.. Prall, it must be said
that he was not responsible for the
opening of this account. ln view of
the confidence mutually reposed in
each other, | felt that I was privileged
to open an account in his name by
advancing the requisite amount of
money and carrying the same along in
that manner.
"This did. The account was mine,
although carried in the name of Mr..
Prall. While this account was in ex
istence all purchases and sales of
stock were made by me under my per-
sonal order and direction. Mr.. Prall
had nothing whatsoever to do with
the same"
After the affidavit had been read the
board adopted its 1922 building pro-
gram calling for thirtyfour elemen-
tary schools, eight high schools and
vocational school at an expenditure of
about 100000. 1t was reported that
nineteen new schools would be ready
next month and that twenty-seven
others were in course Of construction.

McAneny Rebukes
La Cuardia for His
Question on Fares
Says Latter Tries to Draw
Transit Board Into Poll
tics; Accepts Responsible
ity for Construction Delay

George McAneny, chairman Of the
Transit Commission, wrote yesterday
to F. H. La Guardia, President of the
Board Of Aldermen, rebuking him for
his letter requesting that the commits
sion make its stand on the fve-cent
fare clear, Mr.. La Guardia offering, if
it did so, to try to have the Board of
Estimate make appropriations for the
completion of rapid transit ,construc-
ton.
Mr.. La Guardia's letter, said Mr.
McAneny, sought to draw the Transit
Commission into politics, and therefore
his request would be ignored. The let
ter also, added Mr.. McAneny, accepted
for its writer responsibility for delay
in rapid transit construction that was
essential to the welfare of numerous
residents Of the city. Mr.. McAneny's
letter follows:
~ have at hand your letter Of the
18th inst, advising tho Transit Com
mission that unless you are acquainted
with its conclusions in the matter of
measures to be taken for the relief
of the general transit situation before
they are reached you will continue to
do what you can, as a member of the
Board of Estimate, to impede the COM
plction Of the work remaining to be
done on the construction and EQUIP
ment Of the dual subway system. AS
| have previously advised you, the COM
mission is unable to grant your re
quest for advance information-and
must ask that you refrain from repeat
ing it. The commission is engaged
upon a constructive work the details
Of which it expects soon to make pub
lie. 1t is not in politics and cannot
lend its time to futile spondence
of obviously political purpose.
"The commission is interested in the
position you have taken, as a public
officer, in the matter Of the completion
of the unfinished lines Of the dual sys-
TEN, and upon that it is not unwilling
to comment. 1t is utterly unable, how
ever, to follow your reasoning. These
lines, vastly important to the travelling
public, are to finished and used nc
matter what the conditions of their op-
Grafton may be. The determination OF
operating plans can have, therefore, nc
possible bearing upon the question OF
their continued construction and pre-.
parcdness for use. The holding up Of
practically every pending contract af
feeling details Of the unfinished worl
means the denial to the people of many
sections Of the city for an indefinite
period Of the improved service Ions
promised for which they have beer
waiting. For the consequences of these
delays you are apparently willing tt
accept what the commission believes
will prove a serious responsibility.
"The commission expects to receiv,
in few days, and to publish, repor
of it's engineers showing the exac
consequences of the suspension Of worl
your action, in part, has made neces
sary. As that will be comprehensive
shall not attempt to rehearse the de
tails in this immediate word to you"

Opposing Measure; Its
Passage To Be Delayed
From. The Tribune.s Waahinnton Bureau

From The Tribunes Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Aug. 17.-By a vote
of to 2 the Senate Interstate Com
MERGE Committee to-day ordered a
favorable report on the Administra-
tons railway credit bill. Senators
La Folletta of Wisconsin, and Stan
ley, of Kentucky, voted against it.
Acting Chairman Townsend of the
committee will report the measure to
the Senate without delay, but, in view
Of the opposition to it, its passage will
be delayed until after the recess, and
the time of its enactment is uncertain n.
Senator La Toilette indicated a pur
pose to oppose the bill on the floor.
"You are perfecting the bill as you
want it," he said to the Senators who
support it. 81 am not taking any part
in it,
The committee adopted an amend
ment which strikes out a provision in
the original bill that would have al
lowed the War Finance Corporation to
employ any agents or agencies it deems
necessary.
On motion of Senator Kellogg it
adopted a substitute amendment ampli-
lyluk ana making more ; pcclnC inc pro-
vision that the operations of the War
Finance Corporation with respect to
purchase and sale of railroad bonds
shall not interfere with its operations
in farm export financing.
1t is provided in anotnor amendment
adopted by the committee that any bal
ance in the hands of the War Finance
Corporation left over as the result of
it's operations IN railway bonds shall
be paid into the TREASURY
In the course Of the consideration OF
the bill in committee Senator kellogg
announced that the Wa Finance Cor
poration is trying TO form syndicate
to finance the transactions to which
the railroad bill relates without using
any of its own funds. Senator Town
send and others of the committee in.
dicated they understood such a syndi.
cate was being formed, but no details
were given.
The determination was suddenly
made to-day by House leaders to place
the railroad Bill on the schedule of
Legislation to be passed before the re

probably will be reported favorably
from committee tomorrow and the
present plan is to bring it up on tn,

Land Stock Sale
Bankers Sue for Recovery
of Cash Invested in Com
pany Claiming to Own
Big Tracts in Paraguay
Defendants Well known
Representations of Profits
and Backing Are AL
legged To Be Untrue

A suit, based on alleged false repre-
sensations in connection with the pro-
motion of stock in an enterprise known
as the International Products Corpora
ton, was filed in the Supreme Court
yesterday by Richardson, Hill e. Co.,
bankers, to recover S1,440,000, which
they allege they invested in the stock
of the corporation.
The defendants, all Of them prominent
in the commercial and financial world,
are j. Ogden Armour, Edward J. Ber
wind Minor C. Keith, Percival Farquhar,
William n. Baldwin, Rodney d. Chip,
Thomas w. Streeter, George II. Olney,
Joseph E. Stevens, Arthur II. Van Pelt,
Philip w. Henry, George J. Baldwin
and Germon +. Sulzberger. The ex-
ecutors of the estate of Theodore N.
Vail also are mentioned as defendants.
Paraguay Acres Exploited
The International Products Corpora
ton was organized to exploit several
thousand square miles IN Paraguay
on which, it was represented, according
to the plaintiffs, 100000 head of cat
tie were to be raised. The land also
was said to bear 100000 tons of wood
4 for tanning purposes. Also. according
to Richardson, Hill e. Co., it was rep
resented that the company had earned
100000 in 1919. and that the expected
profits for 1920 would be $2,300,0O0
These statements regarding the affairs
of the International Products Corpora
ton were false, the plaintiffs allegc,
and were made for the purpose of in
ducng the banking firm to buy the
stock and offer it for sale to their
clients
"All the individual defendants" says
thu complaint of Richardson, Hill &
Co., "were generally reputed to be men
. Of large pecuniary responsibility and
the defendant corporation and the sale
of it's stock and their presence upon
the board of directors were intended
to induce the public, and did induce
tho plaintiffs, to give full credence and
Fs'iance upon any statements or rep
Vaccinations made by them"
Statements Called Untrue
One of the alleged false representa-
. tons was that the American Interna-
. tional Corporation, the concern that
built Hog Island, had bought $780,
600 of the stock of the International
Products Corporation and that this
money had been used for the corporate
purposes of the latter

Brown.
Mr. Craig was questioned on the dis

the reduction of taxation instead of
going to the reduction of other debts

Mr. Brown said ne agreed with the
Comptroller on this point
The examination then turned on the
value and handling of securities in the
sinking funds.
MI Brown asked the witness If ne

an examination Of the sinking funds

eyes"
1t was here revealed that the sinking
funds which were created to reduce
the citys debt, furnished about s62.-
100000 in 1920 to help meet the city's
running expenses, which should have
been taken care Of through taxation.
The hearing. with the Comptroller
again on the stand, will be resumed at
1920 o'clock this morning.
