At her piano recital at Aeolian Hall
last night Ellen BaIlon played
Taussig's arrangement of Bach's Toe
cata and Fugue, Beethovens Theme
and Variations in C Minor, Rachman-
inof's Prelude in G Minor, Men
delssohn's Scherzo in E Minor; three
Chopin numbers, ola Jongleuse," by
Moszkowskl, and Liszt's "Mazeppa." ."
Beside these, Miss BaIIon presented
two pieces for the first time, Cap
ricci6 and Pastorale, in memory Of
Scarlatti, by Alberto Jonas, which gave
pleasing imitation of the early
italian style.
Miss Ballon played brilliantly, eni-
phasizing the rhythm and showing
special excellence in the rapid pas
sages, which were fast, but c.ear-cut,
q ch nate dis-ir It. Occasionally
she was apt to o7er-emphasize the
Louder parts, bat this was less notice
able in the Mendelssohn and Chopin
numbers, which were played with con
siderable feeling and dehcacy. The
audience was enthusiastic.

Dissemination on the part Of the
public to observe National Fish Day ~
set By various fishing interests for
March 9, may follow protests that New
York dealers are in many instances de-
irving a profit of leo per cent on sea
food.
The collapse of the fish market a
month ago was expected to bring G
lowering Of prices but apparently such
Is not the case. 1t is reported prices
are higher for some fish than a year
ago. Reports from Boston and other
centers show that there is a surplus OF
supplies on hand. This is regarded IS
unusual. The open winter is respon-
sIble, it is said, for an increasing daily
supply
Investigations made yesterday show
that variety of fish selling in the
Fulton Street market for Z cents Il

Fourth avenues for ii and 16 cents q

were sold upon approximately the same

reason for such difference in prices.
Haddock, reported to be selling at
Boston for 2 cents a pound, is quoted
at the Fulton Street Market al cents,

cost of 41a cents.
After haddock arrives here it Is

retail dealer, according to the whole
saler5, is under no expense for packing

quently there is no loss from an over
stock which they are unable to move

Hoover. Asserts
America Needs
Greater Output
Continuous Increase i'm Pro-
ductivity Is Essential to
Progress and Better HUI
man Relations, He Saws
Overproduction a Myth
Easily Absorbed as Lux
uries Become Necessities:
Corporation Emphasized

SYRACUSE, N. Y, Feb. 14-Con-
tlnuous Improvement in productivity is
necessary for the advancement of civil
lzatlon, natural progress, better hu-
man relations and higher standards of
living, Herbert Hoover declared in an
address here tonight before the con-
vention of the American Engineering
Council.
American industry, including agri-
culture, he said, is at present running
from 80 to 40 per cent below capacity
production. Cooperation between in
dustrles and with labor and govern
ment was cited as a means for guaran-
teelng an increase which would be GER
tain even if it is slow.
Inc danger of oversupply as a limit
ing factor in production was discussed
as without proper foundation. The
speaker added there was no such thing
as overproduction.
The commodities or services pro
duced by the whole nation he con-
tlnued, are capable of absorption by
the whole nation if they are of the right
i character. When ten men or one hun
dred million men divide their united
output they can by doubling their out
put have twice the amount to divide
J. here is no limit to the increase of
living standards except the limitations
OF human strain, scientific discovery,
mechanical invention and natural re-
sources.
The absorption of increased produc-
tlvlty lies in the conversion of luxures
Of to-day into necessities of Tomorrow.
Wheat bread, railways, good roads, cleo
triclty, telephones, automobiles and
movies were once luxuries There is
no limit to consumption except the total
capacity to produce, provided the sur
plus OF productive power is constantly
shifted to new articles from those that
have reached the saturation point of
demand"
The speaker said that wastes in
American production were mea a5ured
mainly in unemployment, lost time due
to labor conflict, losses in labor turn
over, failure to obtain maximum pro-
duction of the individual, poor coordi-
nation of great industries and failures
in transportation, coal and power sup
plies
Stabilization and standardization Of
industrial output by agreement, elmi-
ating overlapping efforts and seasonal
activities, were cited as means for
bringing greater production. Utiliza-
ton of natural resources for power was
urged as an additional help in this
direction.
The spirit of cooperation," Mr.
Hoover concluded, "has already solved
many things in this country since it be-
gan to be noticeable thirty years ago.
Cooperation has standardized some
things and is ripe for initiative toward
cooperation of widespread character
The leadership of our Federal govern
ment in bringing together the forces

received no reply to any of the mes
sages, but that there has been some
response is indicated by the statement
Of Mr. Laporte that the government
expects to take over the Quarantine
station by tomorrow. Transfer OF the
title to the Quarantine station, how
ever, will not prevent the city from
conducting its own examinations Of
immigrants and delousing them, when
found necessary. The Federal authori-
ties are not responsible for the clean
mess of the immigrants, bu+ for the

Denies Youth Died of Typhus
William Halligan, the father of the
dead youth, last night denied that his
son was victim of typhus. He re-
fused to admit the physicians dag
nosis, and declared he would put up
fight TO get possession of the body of
his son.
DR.: Mario Buda. house physician at
ST. Mary's, who was in charge of the
case, said the youth was suffering from
typhus when he arrived at the hospital
January 27, and that the direct cause
or death was pulmonary odema, which
followed an attack OF bronchial pneu-
monia on Friday last.
Dr.. John j. Collins and DR.. j. M.
Winfield, two of the consulting ply
sicians at st. Mary's, do not entirely
agree with DR., Buda's diagnosis of the
case. They both admit the young man
was suffering from typhus when they
saw him at the hospital, but they are
Of the opinion that tvphus was more
Of the climatic type rather than the
epidemic type. Both said they thought
the case was clearly one of the "cli-
matte" kind. "Almost invariably" Dr..
Collins said, fthese cases have been
wrongly diagnosed as measles"
Chief Medical Examiner Char es
Norris examined the body of the youth
He said there was no need FOR IN
utopsy; that there was no doubt as to
the cause of death being typhus fever.
pr. Copeland referred to history OF
the case, which revealed all the known
symptoms of the malady in its sever
est form. The Health Commissioner
said funeral services for Halligan will
be private.

steamship passengers and this plan Of

The Commissioner had q telephone
conversation yesterday afternoon with
Dr. William G. Woodward, Health
Commissioner of Boston, who told him
that the government had issued new
regulations regarding the delousine of
vessels at that port and that q similar
set of rules will be laid down for this
port as soon as the government ac-
quires title to the State Quarantine
station.
The Boston regulations, dispatches
from there said last night, were au-
thorized by Assistant Surgeon General
Rlchard II. Creel, IN charge of Fedora
Quarantine matters, and DR.. William
M. Bryant, of the Public Health Serv-
ice, who Is in charge of the Federal
quarantine station on GalIups Island.
Under these rules vessels arriving at
that port which cannot show q bill of
health certifying that all passengers
have been deloused at European port
of enbarkatlon must be deloused at
Boston, and vessels whose passage has
occupied less than twelve days must
be held in Boston Quarantine to com
plete twelve-day quarantine from the
time OF delousing. Ships deloused at
Boston must be held there for twelve
days, it was ordered.
Total Typhus Cases Thirty-seven
Dr.. Copeland said yesterday the en-
tire number of typhus cases that have
developed both in the city and down
th9 bay total thirty-seven. The death
of the two reported yesterday, he said,
leaves thirtythree cases at Quaran-
tine and Hoffman Island, one at Will
lard Parker Hospital, and another in
Brooklyn. The other Brooklyn case,
which was one of the first to be re-
ported so far this year, is that of Mrs
Mary Barnett.
In line with his determination to
keep the city free of typLus at all
costs, with or without Federal CO.
operation. Commissioner Copeland
supplemented his most recent telegram
to Secretary Tumulty by number of
other messages yesterday TO govern
mental officials and members ct c n

and Speaker Gillett.

Last night the Commissioner had

lected to hearing the testimony Of
these two men, but was overruled.
The testimony of Mr.. Powys proceed
ed smoothly as he said, in answer to
Mr.. Quinn's questions, that in his
opinion Joyce's style was too "obscure"
to "deprave and corrupt the public, "
comparing it to a cubist painting in
the sense that the latter was a de-
parture from the orthodox methods of
painting. He said further that because
Of the unusual style of combining mar
rative with dialogue the public would
be "repelled" rather than attracted to
Ulysses.
But when Mr. Moeller said that
Joyce employed the "Freudian method
of psychoanalysis" in Ulysses, and
added that the book "most emphatical-
Is was not aphrodisiac." Justice
Kernochan called halt.
Whats this!" he exploded. whats

Mr.. Quinn rushed forward with an
explanation. well, if. l may explain

is an adjective derived from the noun
Aphrodite, supposed to be the goddess
OF beauty or love"-

kernochan, "but l don't understand
WHaL JnlS man IS taking about. he

Later Mr., Quinn informed the court
that he had three more witnesses-the
Rev. Percy Stickney Grant, Ernest
Boyd, of The Evening Post, and Scofeld
Thayer, editor of The Dial-but it was
agreed by all parties not to hear them
on the stipulation that their testimony
would be the same as that of the two
previous witnesses
Further Hearing Monday
After Mr.. Sumner, who was the only
witness called for the prosecution, had
stated the circumstances of the sup
preston of The Little Review, the
justices each took a copy of the num-
Der and it was announced that they
would hear further argument next
Monday, when they will make their de-
cision known.
James Joyce is an Irish novelist,
playwright and poet, who is regarded
by the group that supports The Little
Review as genius. Mr.. Nuinn in fact
compared him to Shakespeare, Dante,
Fielding. Smollett and Blake.
