Metz Calls for Subways
In the hearing on the policy Of the
city in regard to future rapid transit
man A. Metz held the floor for some
time in discussion with various men,
bers of the board. Mr.. Metz, while
declaring that elevated roads were bet
ter than nothing, especially in the out
lying districts, said that subwAys were
the best means of transportation, and
he favored them.
The representatives Of the civic or
CARNATIONS all agreed that more sub
ways were needed and needed badly,
but no more elevated lines. Repre-
sentatives from the Bushwick section
Of Erookly where Mayor Hylan lives,
declared they wanted the extension Of

Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company pro-
posed making it an elevated line from

Assistant Corporation Counsel George
Nicholson asked that the action re-

National Republican Club
at End of Fiscal Year
i'll April, Perhaps Before

Difference of Opinion by
Director and Aid Over
Issuance of Dry Permit

Colonel Herbert G. Catrow. treasurer
OF the National Republican Club, is to
retire at the end Of the club year in

come of his clash with State Prohibi-
ton Director Ralph A. Day, for many
years member of the club.
Colonel Catrow was chosen by Mr..
Day as his right-hand man in the diff
ficult task Of prohibition enforcement.
HIS resignation was demanded by Mr.
Day following the issuance of per-
nit for about 1000 cases of liquors.
The issuance of this permit was not
IN accordance with the judgment of
Director Day.
Colonel Catrow was elected treasurer
Of the club at the last annual meeting,
largely on his reputation as an ac-
countant and club manager. His clash
with his superior, Director Day, has
created situation in the club, which,
IN view of Mr.. Days connections in
The organization, makes it impossible
for Colonel Catrow to continue as club
treasurer.
Colonel Catrow came to New York

in Republican politics. He was Re-
publican candidate for Congress from
the Dayton Congressional district
He was classmate at college Of
George Christian, secretary to Presi-

personal friendship of Attorney Cen
eral Daugherty.
Colonel Catrow's friends in the Army
and Navy Grub are much incensed at
his dismissal! from the staff OF the
prohibition director, and yesterday
there were rumors that Colonel Catrow
would bring a civil action against Mr..
Day. This report could not be verified
yesterday, as Colonel Catrow was in
