To Cut Costs
Can Save Millions Yearly
by Ending Private Com

Business Men Declare
Appeal for Public Hearing
Cite 200 Per Cent Growth i'm
Street Cleaning Expenses
lin a Letter to Officials

With tho object of saving millions
Of dollars annually which now &c
into the pockets of favored Tammany
contractors, the Brooklyn Chamber OF
Commerce yesterday appealed to the
Board of Estimate to hold public
bearing to discuss n new plan for the
collection and disposal of ashes, rub
bish and garbage.
The chamber, which proposes that
the city collect the waste and dispose
of its own garbage and sell the valuable
by-products, points out that the cost
of administering the Street Cleaning
Department, which collects and dis
poses of the waste. has increased more
than $10,000,O00 in eight years. This
year the cost to the taxpayers for this
branch of municipal government has
been $16,79c.000, as compared with ST.
605,000 in 1913. an increase of more
than 100 per cent.
The chamber also calls the attention
of Mayor Hylan and his associates to
the fact that the one big difficulty in
dealing with the problem is that the
expire on different dates and that it
is therefore practically impossible to
install any new system by the city
at one time.
$500, GOO Contract Expiring
The Brooklyn ash removal contract
which is said to net close to $4,000
annually to the holders of the con-
tract, is about to expire, and the cham
kat
new contract should be let with a re-
gard to the termination dates of sim
liar contracts.
The Brooklyn Chamber of CONNIE rec
also notes that it costs the city $3.50, 900
annually to take the garbage to sea
and reminds the Mayor that under
Mayor Mitchell the garbage was re-
duced by the city and the valuable
greases and fertilizers resulting there
from were sold at an annual profit OF
s124,000 to the-city.
The city, the letter of the chamber
adds, could establish reduction plant
at point convenient to all five bor
oughs and at least save the cost oil
collecting the garbage, if not make 6
profit on it.
The alleged failure of the present
experimental station on Blackwell's
Island of new dchydrating, and drying
process is urged as reasonNfor the &C
quisition of garbage reduction plant
either to be operated by the city or un.
der contract with the city supervising
thus saving at least $5OO,0O0 that nov
goes out to contractors for disposing OF
the municipalities garbage and deac
animals.
Proposes Definite Plan
The Chamber of Commerce incorpo
rated in its letter a proposed plan
which provides:
l. The separation of garbage, rubbish
and ashes by the householder.
2. The separate collection of the three

by the city, thus eliminating private
contractors entirely.
3. The reduction of garbage by the
city or under municipal supervision.
a. Transferring the collection of dead
animals from the Health to the Street
Cleaning Department and disposing of
them at the garbage reduction plant.
5. The sorting of rubbish on belt
conveyors and the sale of the salvaged
waste.

chat the Board of Estimate has many
and pressing problems before it, but
from health and economy point of
view there is none more important than
the adoption of comprehensive sys-

board to call public hearing on the

prephecy that was not repudiated by Mr..
Hylan, who sat close to the Comptroller.
Should the Mayor disapprove the new
charter it would require two thirds
vote in both houses to pass. which
could only be had with the aid Of Demo-
cratic votes.
Mr.. McGoldrick is we'll known to the
Democratic legislators, and is on init
mate terms with most of them. Any
measure which he indorsed as of benefit
to the city, it is believed, would meet
with their approval.
1t was this fact which gave grave
concern to Democratic politicians yes
terday who read Of the Comptroller
threat that the Mayor probably would
veto the work of the charter makers.
If the Mayor should exercise his
perogative on a measure which had
won Democratic support because of Mr..
McGoldrick's Endorsement, break be-
tween the Mayor and Tammany lead
ers would be certain to result, accord
ing to local Democrats.
Tammany Would Avoid Break
This is not wanted by Tammany on
the eve of a statewide fight. The
adoption of a charter comforting full
measure OF home rule on the city,
would, it was admitted by Tammany
men, rebound to the credit of Cover
nor Miller and remove some of the
feeling against him resulting from the
charge that he has violated the city's
home rule principles.
Governor Miller departed for
Charlestown, S. c., yesterday to at
tend the annual conference of Cover
nors. He will return to New York De-
cember 13 and remain here for several
days before going to Albany. He had

Dry Chief Asks Public to Aid
Enforcement by Testifying

From The Tribnne's Woshsngton Buroau
WASHINGTON, Dec. <4.--In an ad-
dress here tonight Prohibition Com
missioner Haynes asked the public to
aid enforcement by being willing to
act as witnesses when the facts of vio-
lation are in our possession"
One of the obstacles in his way, Mr..
Haynes said, is "the silence of the
great w-abiding and law-upholding
majority of our people, which he de-
clared is misinterpretcd by newspaper
men and public officials as "cither dis
interestcdness or disapproval Of the
law"
"In the light of my experience in the
past few months as Federal Prohibition
Commissioner | am persuaded that it
is not quite enough ITO denounce the
public official who is >recreant of duty
in enforcing the law, but we should go
further and give encouragement and
support to those officials who are CIV
ing their best efforts to make the law
effective, and we should go further than
public utterance or private expression.

Minister, ,Homefrom
Germany, Declares
Church Has Failed
Rev. Johannes Schubert. of
Detroit, Says Prussian
Greed Has Lost Its Grip;
Sees Lutheran Revival

The Rev. Johannes Schubert, pastor
OF prominent Lutheran church of
Detroit, returned from his first trip in
thirty years to Europe yesterday on the
Scandinavian American Liner United
States, He voiced pessimistic impress
sion of the morality of Germany.
The State Church of Prussia, he
SAID, had begun to lose its, good effect
upon its communicates before the war
began and now is wholly inefficient to
impart morality and spirituality to
people who had been at war for nearly
five years.
When the war ended, according to
Mr.. Schubert, it left Germany in a
state of moral debasement from which
the State Church has not been able to
lift her He doubted whether it ever
would be effective again with the Ger
man people. He predicted they event
ually would revert to the teachings of
Martin Luther.
He said the Prussan Church had lost
it's grip because of the medern and
stripped it of it's powers for spiritual
uplift.
Germany to-day, DR.. Schubert said,
had sunk to a moral depth that had
never been reached before in her his
tory Moral depression is particular
ly apparent with the young people.
Missionaries, he. said, are striving nobly
to bring the younger generation
back to the right ways of living.
From observations while in Germany,
he said, he could see that the Roman
Catholics and the Russellites were get
ting recruits for their Churches. DR..
Schubert expressed the belief that the
present government of Germany was
on the verge of collapse, and that when
it fell the control would pass to the
Socialists or the extreme Nationalists
and that civil strife was inevitable.
Among others on the United States
were Victor Lassen, submarine build
er; Captain Carl Froelich, of the Nor
wegian legation in Washington, and

New-York tribune., 1921-12-05

We shold be willing to act as witnesses
of the government when the facts Of
violation are in our possession.
ut would also be we'll for our citizens
Interested in law enforcement to attend
the courts, giving moral support to the
government officials. 1t is frequently
true that the friends of the bootlegger
throng the courtrooms and the friends
Of the law are conspicuously absent.
Opposition to enforcement of the
Eighteenth Amendment is highly de-
veloped and persistent propaganda
which seems to be organized in certain
quarters, which has as it's purpose the
impression upon the public mind that it
is not enforced and cannot be. There
are organizations whose sole purpose it
is to repeal the amendment
"The apathy of many citizens con-
stitutes one force that prevents bet
ter articulation of the law. Some seem
to have the opinion that the govern
ment is not serious, that the law is a
joke, and that people prefer laugh
to q law"

OUR BEST FRIEND.

The holy and sustaining truth OF
the presence of Our Lord in tho
Blessed Sacrament is real power
in the lives of those who, beyond
the exalted duties of religion, find
time to be present at Mass on week
days, and to make a visit to some
convenient church in the course of
the day.
Our churches in the centers of ac-
tivity bear continual testimony to
this proof of real religion in the
hearts of our people The wonder
is that so many good, practical Cath
olics neglect these intimate personal
relations with our Saviour. How
many Catholics could at the cost of
small inconvenience, sanctify and
enhearten their days toll by spending
the short time of Mass in the presence
of and in dear companionship with
the One who is their whole hope and
trust How often, too, could few
moments be found to spend in some
silent church in the sole company OF
God. Such treasured moments are
their own reward and are sure sources
of comfort and new hope in the hum
drum and weary routine of daily life

"A SLAVE OF THE SLAVES"

st. Peter Claver was a Spanish
Jesuit. Ordained priest in New
Granada, Peter was sent to Cartagena,
the great slave-mart of the West In
dies, and there he consecrated himself
by VOW to the salvation of those
ignorant and miserable creatures. For
more than forty years he labored in
this work. He called himself "the
slave of the slaves He was their
apostle, father, physician, and friend.
He fed them, nursed them with the
utmost tenderness in their loathsome
diseases, often applying his own lips
to their hideous sores.
His cloak, which was the constant
covering of the naked, though soiled
with their filthy ulcers, sent forth a
miraculous perfume. His rest after
his great labors was in nights of pen
ance and prayer. However tired he
might be, when news arrived of a
fresh slave-ship, Blessed Peter imme'
diately revived, his eyes frightened,
and he was at once on board amongst
his dear slaves, bringing them com
fort for body and soul.
