Federal Coal Bureau
Urged to Aid Industry
Floyd Parsons i'm Speech Be-
fore Advertising Men Advo.
Gates Secretary of Mines

Floyd Parsons said yesterday, at a
luncheon of the Advertising Club Of
New York, that the coal situation was
worse at present, and relief apparently
further removed, than at any time dur
ing the last six months.
He advocated the appointment of a
secretary of mines in the Cabinet and
Federal bureau Of coal economics, to
reorganize the industry and supervise
the construction of hydro-electric
plants. The coal resources of the coun-
try were being depleted at an alarm
ing rate, he said, and the fuel prob
lem of the future would be a serious
one unless hydro-electric power was
developed in accordance with well-laid
plans.
The resources of the country would
enable such plants to be built for the
aggregate development of 60,000,000
horsepower, he said. and for each
horsepower unit ten tons of coal would
be saved annually and 500 worth Of
railroad equipment released.
"We must establish FeGeraI bureau
Of coal economies" he said, (which
shall furnish all the facts pertaining
to fuel industries, such as wages, prices
and quantities of coal on' hand. 1t
should be the duty of this bureau to
furnish US with an emergency fuel
supply in order to protect us from
internal industrial wars"

tial compliance with the statute.

Haggin Promises Court
He'll Pay Judgments

James Ben Ali Haggin, artist, creator
of tableaus for Broadway musical COM
edy productions, and grandson of the
late James Ben Ali Haggin, mine owner
and turfman, against whom numerous
judgments have been filed in the last
year promised In the City Court yes-
terday that he will settle these iudg-
ments as soon as certain trust deed ar
rangements will permit him to.
Mr.. Haggin, now living at Tanners
>vifie: Greene County, N Y, was ex-
emined in connection with judgment
for .$592 obtained against him by julius
Sachs. He expressed his anxiety to
free himself of these obligations and
said he had no objections to the ap-
pointment by the court of receiver to
take over any of his property that can
be found.
Mr.. Haggin has established certain
trust funds for his wife and others
with his share of his grandfathers es-
tate, said to amount to about 81 500 900,
but his income from the estate, he CON
tends, is only sufficient to pay his
running expenses. When some of these
funds expire, they will be available for
the payment of the judgments.

If Mayor Hylan lives until 1880 he
is going to take the stump against
Justice james G. Cropsey should the
jurist seek denomination when his
term expires. The Mayor made the
threat at The budget hearing yesterday.
His ire was aroused when the requests
for several salary increases of attaches
of the courts in the I'd judicial Dis
trict, Brooklyn, came up for consid-
Grafton. The Mayor blamed Justice
Cropsey, who is chairman of the
judiciary committee, which recon-
mended the increases.
Comptroller Craig referred to the
budget of the Brooklyn justices as
"Cropsey's budget"
whats that name? ?" the Mayor in
quired.
"It's Cropsey's budget" replied the
Comptroller. Lets eliminate some
of it,"
"Tha people will eliminate him
naturally when he comes up for Office"
said the Mayor. "If am alive I'll take
the stump against Cropsey."
"Opinion Clerk" Raise Asked
Among the increases that attracted
the Mayors attention were several for
$1,000, one for $3.50 and one for $500.
of the opinion clerk" from $4,000 to
$4,000 year.
"Whom does the opinion clerk give an
opinion to?" inquired Borough Presi-
dent julius Miller of Manhattan.
why" said the Mayor, with broad
smile, she gives them to the judges
and they write them.''
The Mayor declared the proposed
increases in the Brooklyn courts were
tremendous" and would all tend to
raise the tax rate At the Mayors
request the Board Of Estimate de-
ferred action on the court budget. The
Mayor suggested that the budget be
referred back to Justice Cropsey to
give him "a chance to make a cor
recton.''
The Mayor again became perturbed
when a representative Of the Surro-
gate of Kings County asked for per-
mission to raise salaries of several at
tachcs amounting to several thousand
dollars.
Nothing but increases" commented
the Mayor "Some people are mighty
liberal with other peoples money. You
go over and ask the Surrogate to have
some heart for the taxpayer"
The budget requests for 1923 sub
mitted by DR.. Royal S. Copeland. for
the Health Department, showed an in
crease of $927,608 over the appropria-
tion for this year. The requested ap
preparation for the department is So
412,173. DIR. Copeland said he needed
the increase for additional nurses to
attend expectant mothers in the
poorer districts Of the city. He esti-
mated that the department would be
able to effect 15 per cent decrease In
the infant death rate during the year
if the additional nurses were allowed.
