storeroom and cause no end OF trouble
yesterday. Park Commissioners Gallatin
announced at the Municipal Building
that that was precisely what they were
going to do. but Edward Robinson. d.
rector Of the museum. raised his eye
brows and said that news OF the resur-
rection was an entire surprise to him
and anyway the trustees would have
to make the decision.
It is proposed by Commissioner CAL
latin that the young women In marble
be placed on Wow at the contemplated
scuiptural and horticultural exhibit
which the National Sculpture Society. in
cooperation with the Horticultural So
ciety, wishes to hold In Central Park
during August and September. Opposi-

or any expression OF opinion upon the
terms proposed until the matter has
come before them officially and been
weighed with relation to all Of its bear
ings upon the existing transit situation .
A few hours before Judge Mayors
announcement the Transit Commission,
Informally but definitely served notice
on Frank Hedley. president OF the
Interborough, that, irrespective OF obu-
cations incurred under the Manhattan
Elevated lease. the commission would
require tho marlborough to expend In
subway service betterment O reasonable
part of the subways estimated net cor
porate profit Of $3.388.000 for tho fiscal
year ending on June 80. 1922.
subway Profits for Subway.
Profits accrued from subway opera
tion must be used hereafter to improve
subway service In tho interest Of the
travelling public. The commission will
not permit such profits to be diverted
to the bottomiess pit Of the Manhattan's .
annual deficits. This was made plain
both by George McAneny. chairman. and
Clarence J. Shern, chief counsel in
the commissions service investigation,
while Mr.. Hedley was In the witness
chair undergoing cross-examination.
That policy was laid down for imme-
diate action. 1t Is quite Independent
OF the question whether or not the In
terborough enters the commissions plan
Of unification and reorganization.
but I won't agree" Mr. Hedley con-
tinued: II may have to do It. but won't
agree to the expenditure Of any ones
money in rendering a wasteful service.
and It would be a wasteful service II

Because if q passenger Is only going to
ride three or four minutes on a train he
won't go to a seat II there is ono there.
I saw that myself coming down In tho
subway this morning"
WELL" commented Mr.. Shearn, 1t
seems to be a choice between the present
nightmare and Mr.. Turner's dream. We
will have to leave 1t to the commission
to decide"
The Interborough chief insisted he had
to operate the system as q unit. II we
make money on the subway" he said.
I'VE have got to stand the losses on the
elevated"
This brought an explanatory interrupt
tion from Chairman McAneny: The
revenues Of the subway under your con-
tracts with the city are, Of course. not
chargeable In any sense with the ex-
penses Of the elevated system"
Concerning the suggestion that q
larger number Of trains be operated dur
Ing tho non-rush hours, Mr.. Hedley said :
I'm my opinion a three or four minute
interval is a satisfactory interval to the
travelling public. He admittee. how
ever, the feasibility from an operating
standpoint Of running more trains al
closer headway during most OF the non
rush periods, including the after theater
hours.
The examination was adjourned until
IL o'clock this morning. Mr.. Hediey ther
will be cross-examinede by John p
O'Brien, Corporation Council.

Judge Mayer IL sansuine.

Judge Mayer however. believes that
the plan offers q solution for the pres
ent problem that confronts the Inter-
borough. His statement follows:
Several weeks ago the court called
q conference OF the counsel representing
the various interests in the Interborough
and Alanhattan properties and urged
upon them the advisability OF agreeing
upon some fair plan of voluntary re-
adjustment that would avert an Inter-
borough receivership. The court took
this step not only for the protection Of
the assets in the hands of James r.
Sheffield, as trustee in bankruptcy OF
the Interborough Consolidated Company,
but also in the hope OF ayerting the
very grave injury to the travelling pub
lic and to the security holders. which
the court was convinced, after careful
consideration OF the pending receiver
ship applications, would result from a
receivership and the disintegration OF
the Interborough- Manhattan system.
LAS the result OF a series OF confer
ences held in consultation with the
court a plan OF voluntary readjustment
has been prepared which the conferees
have agreed to submit to their respec-
tive committees and board Of directors,
namely: The Interborough bondholders'
and noteholderg committee. Of which J..
p. Morgan is chairman; the Manhattan
stockholders committee, of which Alvin
w. Krech Ia chairman; the board of
directors Of the Manhattan company;

holders committee. OF which Col. Gray

Conferences Prepare Way
to Pay Debts and Taxes
and Buy Equipment.
HEDLEY AGAIN EXAMINED
Is Told by the Transit Board
Subway Profits Must Not Be
Used to Pay ~ Losses.

AS result Of tho conferences that
have been In progress for some time q
plan has been devised which It is ex-
pected will not only put stop to the
rumors OF the appointment Of a re-
ceiver for the Interborough Rapid
Transit Company, but also win put
that company on its feet financially
and enable 1t to improve its service by
the purchase Of new equipment.
The plan was announced last eve-
ming by Federal Judge julius M.
Mayer. It's chief provision Is re-
adjustment Of the lease Of tie Nam
haitian Railway Company's elevated
lines to tho Interborough. regarding
which there has been much discussion
recently. The plan provides for a
substantial reduction for a period Of
three years and possibly longer. IN
der the plan. instead Of getting per
cent. on 100000. 900 a year. or s4.200.-
900. tie Manhattan owners would re-
ceive s1.Soo.0o0 for the fiscal year be-
ginning July /. 1922; $2.4o0, 900 for the
next fiscal year, and $3.Oo0.o0o yearly
thereafter. provided the Interborough,
should not earn more than per cent.
on its own stock.
The plan also provides for the pay
mont of about $2,50o,0o0 arrears OF
taxes on the Manhattan property. the
waving for five year period of the
sinking fund payment on the company's
5 per cent hrst mortgage bonds.
totaling about $l60.0o0.o0O and some
times referred to as the Morgan
bonds" the extension for ten years
OF the $3S.o00,00o secured notes which
the Interborough has outstanding and
the furnishing Of s7,000,000 of new
money" by Interborough stockholders.
With these readjustments made the
conferees believe the Interborough will
not only be able to make UP all arrear-
ages and meet current obligations. but
will have a fund of SIS. 100000. most OF
which will be spent on equipment and
permit a substantial increase" in the
service.
1t Is stated clearly that all calcula-
tions are based on the continuation Of
the i've cent fare. While II Us not
mentioned In the statement issued by
Judge Mayer the plan will need the
approval OF the stock and bond holders
OF the companies involved as well as
OF the Transit Commission

Radio Amateurs
Face Big Problem
Proximity of Stations Limits
Operations Without
Interference.

With. the number OF radiophone
stations broadcssting on $50 meters
constantly increasing. necessitating
a lengthening Of broadcasting hours
the problem of the transmitting
amateur Is becoming more and
more difficult. Where a transmit
ting amateur using a spark trans
mitter is located in a thickIy pop
ulated section. 1t is next to impos-
sible for him to transmit without
causing interference to nearby
broadcast listeners, even though his
station strictly conforms to all
laws and regulations. The same Is
true in the case of a tube trans
mitter of high-power. At a liitIe
distance the effect of the tube
transmitter Is confined to the 200
meter wave, but some interference
will result on the broadcasting
wave. particularly in the case of
nearby listeners who are not skilled
in selective tuning, or whose re-
ceiyers are not of a high selective
quality.
While the operators Of 10000
general amateur transmitting sta
tions are up against this interfer-
ence problem, the case of the 200
or more special amateur station
operators. authorized by their gov
ernment licenses to transmit on 375
meters. and to use more power, in
many cases than is allowed the
general amateurs, are practically
out of business, unless they are
willing to do their transmitting
after broadcasting hours. which, in
the case of the New York district,
means after midnight.
In addition to the two classes of
amateur stations. there are many
experimental stations. known as the
Y class. and with many school and
university stations the Y class,
which are authorized to transmit
on wave lengths in the neighbor-
hood of the general broadcasting
wavelength. but cannot do so be-
tween a. m and IL p. m. without
causing interference with the pro-
grams of the many broadcastIng
stations now in operation.
While all these classes of sta
tions are licensed by the govern
ment and authorized to transmit in
accordance with specified rules for
power. decrement and wavelengths,
large proportion of them are idle
at present, owing to the provision
In the radio laws against interfer-
ence, to the effect that any opera
tor shall not willfuly interfere with
any other radio communication.
The whole situation. so far as the
transmitting amateur is concerned,
Is highly unsatisfactory. II would
seem that the use of moderate
powered tube transmitters. on $50
to 200 meters. offers the best So
luton of the problem.-The Wire

Treaty of Versailles there is difference of opinion. But those
treaties may fall short Of the league covenant and yet be worth
while. In one respect the Hughes program may be likened to
a fire department that is authorized to fight fires that may
break out in a certain limited part of the city. A general fire
department would be preferable, but a limited department is no
doubt better than none at all.
There is one point in which the Versailles covenant has an
appeal that is lacking in the conference program at Washing
ton. Under the league covenant no nation is required to throw
away its private weapons until the league plan is shown to be
capable of enforcing peace. The HughesLodge Harding plan
calls for scrapping our best b~attleships at once and for Japan
and England to scrap battleships that are chiefly on paper.
