Queens Subway
Extension Will
Aid Thousands
Spur From Grand Central
to 4lst ST. and 9th Ave.
Will Relieve Congestion
on the AID ST. Shuttle
Work Requires 4 Years
Cost To Be $3.867.I38 and
Involves Some Difficult
Feats in Engineering

Relief from congestion caused bv the
Tntsrborough Rapid Transit shuttle ut
Forty-sccond Street and improvements
in the service of the Quccnsboro
ks7Sbway are predicted by the Transi,
Commission upon the completion of
the extension from Grand Central Sta
t5en to Forty-iirst Stret and Eighth
{Senue. Award of the contract for the
extension. which is regarded as one of
the most important remaining links in
the dual system, was announced by the
commission last week
The Transit Commission, according
TO an announcement yesterday. csti-
mates that the work will be completed
is about four years if the Board of
estimate takes prompt action in grant
ing the appropriation of S3,S67.13S to
cover the bid of the Powers-K Kennedy
company.
Large Number viii Benefit
With the completion of the oxten-
sion, the commission points out. a
large number of persons who dailv
use the Greensboro subway and it's
Corona and Astoria branches will be
able to travel without change between
points in Queens and Eighth Avenue,
Mannattan. 1he Queensboro ex-
tension and the contemplated exten-
sion of the Corona branch across the
Flushing Greek into Main Street.
Flushing, it is further pointed out, will
enable residents Of Flushing to make
through trips to and from the heart of
Manhattan.
According TO counts OF the commits
sion's inspectors, the average daily
traffic in the shuttle is about 100, 900
persons. Of whom about $4,000 transfer
20 and from the Greensboro trains.
Difficult Engineering Project
The construction of the Greensboro
extension presents one of the most
difficult engineering projects at
tempted here, it is said. 1t will neces-
state the removal of $4,000 cubic
yards Of earth and $4,000 cubic wards
of rock. and will involve the under
mining not only of the existing sub
@-sy at Forty-second Street, but also
that of the entire north end of the
Public library and several theaters
and hotels.
In the construction work AZ 900 cubic
yards Of concrete and $500 tons of
steel will be used. Because of the ma
ture of the contract the Powers en-
nedy company was required to put up
Sl,O00,000 bond. The contract was
said to have been the most closely con
tested of the kind on record, the sue
cessful bid being just seven-tenths of
/ per cent lower than the next com.
petitor.

Boys Building g
Plan for Structure and Gifts
Announced at the 25th
Anniversary Meeting of
Big 57th Street Branch

Tho West Side Y. M. C. A. celebrated
its twenty-fifth anniversary in its
building, 31S West Fifty-scventh Street
yesterday afternoon, and announced
the projected erection Of an eight
story building, costing $5OO,000. The
new building will be built within n
half mile of the old and will house the
boys division, crowded out of the old
structure. 1t will be devoted entirely
to the working boy under nineteen. Its
work will be under the West Side Y. M.
Z. A. committee Of management.
AT the anniversary meeting. which
preceded a reception in the "Y' build
ing, William M Kingsley, chairman of
the branch for the last twenty-five
years. announced the first gifts to the
new building fund as follows: Anonv-
nous. $4,000; Philip LIE Boutllicr.
$4,000; J. B. Mabon, $4,000, and Gil
bert Colgate, $4,000. The total fund
to be raised is $25O,0OO. The balance
Will be amortized from the current cx-
penses. The committee in charge of
tho project is John Sherman Hoyt,
Vanderbilt Webb, Gilbert Colgate, Will
liam Sloane Coffin and Philip Lc
Boutiller, chairman.
The new building will provide sleep
ing rooms for 1876 boys and facilities
for 1000 regular members. There will
be physical, social, educational and
employment service facilities. 1t may
hause the McBurney Day School with
a capacity for 200 boys. The building
is expected to be self-supporting from
the day it is opened.
Addresses delivered at the annivcr-
velopment of the branch, which is one
of the foremost in the world
Walter Dyer, of the board Of man
ayers, which has not changed it's per-
sonnel in the last quarter of a CEN
tury, recalled that where sky-scrapers
now surrounded the West Side -"Y"
New-York tribune., 1921-11-28

that it has since been retained and cx-
tended to more than twice the original
scope. Women police in modified uni
form of the regular force are now at
tachcd to every precinct Of the London
metropolitan police area.
The New York policewomcn who ap-
pearcd for final inspection and instruc-
tion yesterday constitute as fine body
rs could be found anywhere. The uni
form worn is of regulation dark blue,
with the addition of light-blue vestees.
The skirts worn are ankle length in
Manhattan and the Bronx. In the other
three boroughs skirts are shortened
four inches and puttces are worn. The
hours of duty will be to q. M. noon
to 1 p. m. and to $3.50 p. m.
Speaking Of the new service last
night, Major Barnes said she felt sat
isfied the policewomen would give n
splendid account of themselves She
added:
"These women arc giving their serv-
ices as volunteers. A great many of
them are in business, and it is there
fore impossible for them to devote all
their time to the work, but feel GER
tain that crossings will be efficiently
patrolled. 1t will be poor policy for
law violators to attempt any imposi-
tion on the new force because of its
sex"

the symphony, disclosed no such atti-
tude either toward his people Che IL
an Englishman) or toward the art in
which he dabbles while acting in some
capacity to the British Embassy in
Rome. This fantasia suggests pose
and gesture SO vulgar that to describe
1t, as a tongue in the cheek or that
wierd member protruding from under
an upturned nose, is to speak in terms
Of excessive compliment. Like others
Of his fellows who want to appear to
be original but are only impotent, he
affects to despise technical training.
He studied with one Of tho most or
thodox English professors, "to whose
teaching he quantity ascribes the cir
cumstance that he entered the diplo-
matte service" remarks one of his
friends. The professor did not do his
full duty; he should have driven him
into tho jazz band Of a cheap eating
house, or locale like that from which
emanated the "Memphis Blues" 1t is
not necessary to know much about the
laws of musical composition to create
a damnable reiteration Of rhythmical
figures, plunge them into a disonant
broth, which in its boiling and bub-
bling shall throw to the surface frag-
ments of theme unrelated to each
other and to the mess from which they
emerge. Beginners in orchestration
have unwittingly produced such effects
by writing uniformly for ell instru-
ments, forgetful Of the fact that some
of them are transposing instruments.
Many persons in the audience were OBJ
served to be laughing during the per-
formance and applauding afterward. To
them, apparently, a poor joke is not
out Of place in symphony concert
The other novelty was a violin con-
certo in A by Miecyslaw Karlowicz, a
Polish musician who was killed by an
avalanche in Galicia when thirty-three
years old. Mr.. Kochanski played it on
this occasion for the first time pub
licly in America. 1t is plainly the COM
position of violinist and a musician of
talent. We were inclined to ascribe
elements of real greatness to it at the
close Of the first movement, which has
breadth and dignity Of material and
treatment and noble spirit. Unfor-
tunately this nobility was at times
turned into blatant bombast by the
crude and noisy orchestration. which
was so inconsistent with tho themes
and their development in the solo part
that we are disposed to think that some
tinkering has been done to tho score
by person Of less tact and taste than
the composer.
A moro skillful hand, By removing
the too protubcrant brass ornaments
from the first and last movements,
might transform tho concerto into q
welcome addition to the violin virtuo-

tinuous ride without change of cars
from home to Office would be within the
reach of nearly every commuter
The next proposition is the develop
ment of an interstate plan of through
routing, so that Jersey trains may run
directly to points either in Westchester
or Long Island, both the Westchester
and Long Island trains to Jersey, the
Long Island trains to Westchester and
the Westchestcr trains to Long Island.
The plan also suggests Pennsylvania
station as terminal not only for the
Pennsylvania and Long Island roads,
but also for all the railroads ending in
Jersey, and the establishment Of trans
fer points for the interchange of pas
sengers between the different lines
wherever one railroad intersects an
other and the convenience of travel
makes such transfer desirable.
In commenting on the plan, which is
sultant, B. H. Saunders, chairman Of
the commission, said yesterday:
"The cost of such project would DO
surprisingly small. The capacity of
the subways just constructed in New
York will soon be reached. Then addi-
tional new lines must be built. The
trunk line subway proposed under this
scheme for Fifth Avenue would, to the
extent that it distributed the commut-
ing traffic, not only relieve the existing
subway congestion but reduce the need
for new lines. To care for the COM
muters in separate subway would,
moreover. greatly simplify the whole
problem of subway operation.
To Link Up Belt Lines
"Then, too, the Port Authority Is
even now planning an elaborate sys-
tenn of inner, middle and outer belt
lines. These are being projected with
out reference to how they would meet
the needs Of rapid transit on the rail
road lines. Study would undoubtedly
show that many of these belt lines
could be located in manner equally to
promote the needs Of both freight and
passenger transporta tion.
"To-day, interurban transit in New
York is all but impossible. A man liv-
ing along the Lackawanna in Bloom
field who wishes to go to Paterson, for
instance, must go to Hoboken, transfer
on the Hudson tubes to the Erie sta
tion in Jersey City and then back out
over the meadows to Paterson A man
leaving the Pennsylvania station is in
Philadelphia long before one leaving
Perth Amboy reaches New Rochelle.
"The bi-state rapid transit plan
would remedy this situation"

Dr. John r.. Mott said the building
and organization compared favorably
with any in forty-seven countries
where he had travelled. He lauded the
board of managers and the employees,
some OF whom have been with the or
ganzation since it's inception. He
asked that the &C" in Y. M. G.. A, al
ways might be uppermost in the minds
and hearts of the managers, members
and workers. He complimented the
organization for its international spirit
and accomplishments.
New Step in 'Y" Work
Chairman William M. Kingsley, who
has seen every step Of development
since what he termed "the year one"
said in part:
"The projected plans and aims of
this new building mark new do
vclopment in Y. M. c. A. work Here
tofore the 'Y' has dealt with young
men over eighteen. We have rccog-
nized, however, the large returns Of
work undertaken with boys under
eighteen years. 1t is the belief of the
sponsors that this building will mark
a new era of service to the New York
City boy, whose needs have not been
clearly appreciated in tho past, and
this building is destined to be the
first in a series of similar buildings
in New York.
"Too great Importance cannot be
placed on the need Of serving the New
York City boy who works. We want
to give these young Americans the
chance to start clean in difficult
city conditions at this critical period
of their lives. This building will be
the pioneer Of its kind in America
and should prove an inspiration and
model to other men and cities in
meeting the problem of civic better
ment."

Bi-State Transit
Meeting 2 Dec Is
Jersey and Suburban New
York Cities Invited to
Join in Devising Speedier
and Better Communication

The City Plan Commission of Pater-
son. N. j.. has sent out invitations to
municipalities of New Jersey and New
York to attend, on December Is. in
Paterson City Hall, conference to dis.
cuss and take effective action on a BIZ
state rapid transit plan, calculated to
provide faster and more convenient
travel for the whole metropolitan area
The plan seeks to weld the several
parts of the port into single unit, so
that Montclair would be brought as
near to Park Place as Park Place is to
Harlem and q trip from New Rochelle
to Perth Amboy would not be the
tedious adventure that it is at present
Tentative Program
In its present form the plan is moth.
ing more than a suggestion. basis 70,
discussion. Its program for utilizing
the railroads to an increasing extent
as rapid transit lines would include:
A pooling of the communication service
of the several railroads.
Universal electrifcation of all pas
senger lines.
The construction of additional tubes
under-the Hudson and East rivers and
an additional trunk line subway in Man
haitian as integral parts of the present
steam railroad lines
This last suggestion will, it is said,
relieve the commuter of the necessity
of transferring to the local subway
lines in Manhattan below Ffty-ninth
Street. All unnecessary transfers would
be eliminated. The ideal of one con-
