SHORTAGE IN BRICKS
IMPERILS BUILDING
Brooklyn Stock Only Enough
to Last Until Tomorrow,
Dealer Reports.

A plan to meet the building material
shortage revealed at Wednesdays ses-
sion of the Lockwood committee by pool4
ing all brick shipments coming into New
York will be discussed at conference
to be held May 16 at p. NJ. az the
Pennsylvania Hotel by Samuel Inter
myer. Harry G. Anderson of Anderson.
Phillips & Moss, counsel for the Builders
Association of Manhattan, and several
large dealers in builders materials.
The shortage of brick in the Hudson
River yards and the reason for their
early closing last autumn are being in
vestigated by the Lockwood committee.
The fact that brick costing about s11 a
thousand is selling at s24 and S25 is one
of the reasons the committee had for
deciding to memorabilia Congress to pass
emergency tariff legislation that would
permit the importation of English brick
to sell at $14 thousand on the New
York piers.
Mr.. Anderson declared that builders
are being confronted with the necessity
of paying soaring prices for brick when
they need a few thousand to complete a
building. He cited the case of a Bronx
builder who last week needed 100000
brick to complete an apartment building
and was told he could only obtain it IL
he cared to meet an advanced market
price.
This seems to be the condition
throughout the city" added Mr.. Andcr-
son. Small builders just prior to the
completion Of their structures find that
for some reason or other they cannot
obtain any more brick unless they pay a
higher price.
"Mr. Untermyer is going to send a
representative up State to investigate the
alleged shortages among manufacturers
In the meantime we are planning on
pooling all incoming brick so that it will
be diverted TO dwelling house purposes
first to complete work already started
and then for use in new buildings"
The situation in Brooklyn was said
yesterday to be serious.
Not one of the yards in Brooklyn
has enough brick to last beyond Satur-
day" said Stephen Duffy of the ]. p.
Duffy Company. This will mean that
most of the home building operations
where brick is needed will be stopped
by the first part of next week"

Ramifications.
JUDGE GRANTS A DELAY
Bankrupt Brokers' Firm Char
acterized as Heart of Bucket
Shop Evil

Judge Learned Hand in the United
States District Court. yesterday granted
a further stay OF five days on his
own order permitting the District At
torney of New York county to sub
poena the books of the bankrupt brok-
erage firm of e. ID. DER & Co.
Judge Hand made 1t clear to Charles
A. Winter of counsel for the Dier con-
Germ that he would not grant any fur
ther stay after Tuesday. 1t means that
unless additional delay is obtained
through the Supreme Court the District
Attorney may seize the long fought for
books.
1t is understood that on Monday coun-
sci for the Dier firm will apply to the
United States Supreme Court to adj
vance the hearing on counsers appeal
from Judge Hands ruling that the
books are to go to the District At
torney At that time the Supreme
Court may or may not grant further
delay.
In opposing the granting of con-
tinuance of the stay John c. Myers
Assistant District Attorney of the APP
peals Bureau. said in part:
''The District Attorney has reason to
believe that DER & Co.. was really the
center of an extensive bucket shop in
dustry, and IL the District Attorney has
an opportunity to examine the DER
books he might obtain valuable fnforma-
ton that would disclose the ramifica-
tions of the bucket shop systems
The Assistant District Attorney In the
affidavit he presented to the court re-
viewed the lengthy litigation over the
books as follows:
On February 16 last the concern OBJ
tanned an order from Judge Hand to
show cause why the receiver should not
be restrained from turning over the
books to the District Attorney. On
February 81, or thereabouts. Judge Hand
denied the application for the injunctive
order.
Saul S. Myers, counsel for the receiver
for the Dier company. also opposed a
continuance of the stay on the ground
that if the case is delayed after May 2s
it would have TO be held over until the
October term of the Supreme Court
At the hearing expected on Monday
before the Supreme Court in Washing
ton the District Attorney will join with
counsel for the failed firm in seeking an
early hearing on the appeal He will
however. oppose any continuance of the
stay.

The bedroom which has
