ASSERTS TARIFF BILL
IS FILLED WITH TINT
lie BoutiIiier Says 1t Would
Upset Republicans.

An arraignment of the Fordney tariff
bill was the principal feature of the first
annual convention of the National Coun-
ell of American Importers and Traders
at the Hotel Pennsylvania yesterday.
Stress was laid upon the value of the
campaign of education which the coun-
ell has conducted.
Philip lie Boutillier answered the
charge of Representative Fordney that
the council had used up campaign
fund of 100000 by stating that the pub
licity committee had spent little more
than $4,000 In obtaining data and
opinions on the subject and sending this
material throughout the country.
Although a Republican. he described
the Fordney bill as the TINT" that
would blow the Republican party out OF
power.
ut will take blood and money and
hopes from millions of American homes.
he said. and while it has been unani-
mously condemned by all economists
the tariff, above all. is not a question
of politics or economics, but 1t is g
human question that concerns the live:
and hopes OF the American people"
Francis II. Sisson, vice-president Of
the Guaranty Trust Company, said
Among the potent negative factors il
the business situation are the anthracit,
miners strike. the New England textile
strike. the efforts to enact a high pro
| tective tariff. the endeavors TO saddle g
soldiers bonus on the taxpayers ano
the greately increased productive capac
ity in certain lines of industry. which
is not balanced by corresponding de-
mand for goods"

NAVY SEEKS ROCKAWAY
PARK FROM CITY AGAIN
DENLY Warns New York of
Danger of Air Raids.

Another attempt is being made by the
Navy Department to obtain from the
city the site of the air station in Jacob
a. Riis Park at Rockaway.
IF the Government Is forced TO va
cate Rockaway," writes Secretary DENLY
in letter on the calendar for Thurs
days meeting OF the Sinking Fund Com
mission, 'it Is regarded improbable that
rev appropriations can be secured to
acquire and build up another site. In
that event there win be no provision re-
naming for proper aerial defense Of
New York city against enemy raids from
the sea"
The Secretary says the Federal Gov
ernment has spent S1,200.000 on the
present plant.
The Committee on Non Partisan
Facts. Of which Herman A. Metz is
chairman. made public last night the
following
THE present buildings are not worth
s1.200.000. for the large buildings
burned down. Next this site the War
Department already owns over 800 acres.
Within q stones throw Is n private sec
tion which might be condemned. A little
bit further on is another private section.
The purpose of this aviation field is not
defense but scouting far out at sea,
which means site further back is
usable."

didn't know that the General was wad-
ding down the stairs behind them.
They thought the General had retired
to his bathtub. until after th,y had got
old Ike Brown into the ambulance.
Then the chauffeur found the General
beside the ambulance. The chauffeur
kicked at the General. and jumped back
just in time to save his toes. because
the old turtle has a wicked snap.
The doctor told the chauffeur to start,
and the chauffeur tried to, but the turtle
kept running under the wheels. They
didn't like to hurt him. so Dr. Cady
seized the General and flung him into
the ambulance. The General rode to
Bellevue. sitting in silence. but in dig
nifty on the breast OF old Ike Brown.
O.-ce at the hospital the old soldier in
sisted that a bed for the General be
made up alongside his, but the hospital
attendants shooed the turtle into the
back yard and dumped him into the
fountain, where he seemed happy but a
little lonesome.
Ike Brown got we'll quickly. as soon
ss he got some strengthening food and
some care. and yesterday he went home.
And he was so grateful to the hospital
that he made DIR. Cady present OF
the General the only thing he
possessed He could think of no better
we to show his appreciation than TO
give the thing he cared for most. But
ir ernes at Bellevue have little room
in their quarters for turtles, so the
General will have to go back to Tenth
street. But he will go in state. in an
ambulance this morning-guarded by
no: Dital attendants who also will guard
themselves for they have great respect
for the Generals wicked snap.

POPE BY WIRELESS
LAUDS K. OF G. PLAN
Believed to Be First Use of
Radio in Sending Official
Message to L. s.

What is believed to be the first use
Of radio by the Vatican in transmit
ting an official message to America is
a message received from Pope Plus XI,
containing formal appreciation of the
knights of Columbus gift of $1,000. 900
for American welfare work in Italy
now operating under the auspices of the
Holy See. The message to James A.
Flaherty. Supreme knight, reads:
Following the audience of your
commissioner, Edward l.. Hearn. with
the Holy Father. the Supreme Pontiff
directs me to notify you of his sove-
reign pleasure at the noble sentiments
of devotion expressed in the name OF
the well deserving order of the Knights
of Columbus. and especially for what
the order intends to accomplish accord
ing to the desires of his Holiness for
the welfare of the youth of Rome and
Italy.
More particularly the Holy Father
Is pleased at the proposal of your COM
missioner to found in the neighborhood
of st. Peters. and. indeed. on Pontifcal
territory. a work destined for the good
of the children of the people whose in
terest the Holy Father has so closely
at heart, desiring that the young people
of district so densely populated and
placed so close to his person should
have the best Christian education and
advantages.
ITO that end ] am directed by his
Holiness to send you the Typographical
map of the ground. notifying you that
he gives you full liberty to present to
the secretariat of State plan for the
installation of the project which the
Knights of Columbus have so gener-
ously planned to establish. His Holiness
invokes from the Lord the abundance
of heavenly favors on the work which
the Knights of Columbus are accom-
plishing for the increment of religion
and public morality and as a token of
his paternal and special benevolence i'm
parts with all his heart the apostolic
blessing to you rs well as to the supreme
council, the supreme officers and direct
ors and to each individual member of
the Knights of Columbus and their
families.

HIM AND GOES TO BELLEVUE
Veteran, 80 Fought to Bring His Pet With Him, but
Was Unheeded Until the Turtle Turned Up
Under the Wheels of the Ambulance

The doctors and stretcher bearers OF
General when they went to a flat in
435 East Tenth street last Saturda y
night to get Ike Brown, who was once
Union soldier, and who was Ill prin-
cipally because he is eighty years old
and for a long time has had no one
to care for him. But the General soon
dispelled their ignorance. He bit a
chunk from the heel of one of the at
tendants. and the attendants and the
doctors took refuge on chairs until Ike

the General had been almost the only

that when the doctors told Ike Brown

went along.
DR.. Cady said that rules were rules.
and there was nothing in them about
taking turtles to Bellevue in ambulances.
So they started out with Ike Brown,

HYLAN FOR ALBANY
is DEMOCRATIC VIEW
Mayors Break in Comparing
Crime in Upstate Cities
Is DeplOred.

Tammany wiseacres at the Hall yes
terday based their political gossip largely
on the belief that Mayor Hylan would
eventually turn up as the Democratic
candidate for Governor.
Charles F.. Murphy was not at his
desk, and 1t was acknowledged his plan
of campaign would be unknown for a
long time. but men who have watched the
shaping of political situations for many
years said indications pointed toward
Mayor Hylan.
Probably there is no question that
Mr.. Hearst would like to be Governor"
said one veteran Tammanyite. But he
is not likely to try to force his nomina-
ton unless he has assurance ne can win.
] do not believe such assurance can be
given. Opposition to him will develop
here as well as upstate that will sur
prise him and his managers.
II would lige to see AL Smith run, but
Mr.. Hearst would oppose him. We have
to pick a man satisfactory to the pub
fisher, and he has already declared for
Mayor Hylan."
The speaker deplored the Mayors
statement in his letter to Police Commis-
soner Enright that crime conditions in
upstate cities were worse than here.
That was a bad break he said. be-
cause the Mayor will have to rely on
these cities for the vote to elect him."
1t was said yesterday that several up
State women's organizations were pre-
pairing to attack Mr.. Hearst's record dur
ing the war. He and Mrs. Hearst Will
sail to-day on the Cunard steamship
Aquitania for a two months trip to Eu-
rope. His departure will be quiet. but
his managers are planning a roaring
homecoming

assurances that the merger of the two

Special Dispatch TO TIE NEW YORK HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau.
Albany. May 22.
Democratic organizations in Albany
Rensselaer, and Schenectady counties
are sitting tigtt awaiting further de-
velopments in moves engineered by
"Fingy" Conners and others who are
working day and night to improve
William Randolph Hearst's chances
for the Democratic gubernatorial nomi-
nation.
In Albany county organization
leaders are taking no stand, but it is
understood that Edwin Corning and
Daniel O'Connell, responsible heads of
the Albany Democratic organization,
are none too friendly toward Hearst.
Patrick e. McCabe, dethroned leader
of tie Albany Democracy, always a
Hearst adherent, is said to be quietly
manufacturing Hearst sentiment
among such Democrats as are dis
posed to listen to his advice.
Former Gorvernor Martin H. Glynn,
owner of the Times Union, Demo-
cratic newspaper. is a close personal
and political friend of Hearst. Mr..
Glynn Is on his way to Europe. but his
newspaper has shown Indications of
Hearst support. The fact that Hearst
advocates will be able to find express
sion through the Times Union should
prove of advantage to them, as It Is
the only daily Democratic newspaper IN
Albany.
Up to. this time the Albany organiza-
tion has given no outward interest In
State affairs. 1t has been too busy
fortifyng its position in Albany city
and county, to make as permanent as
possible the victories it gained last fail.
when 1t obtained control Of both the
city and the county governments.
In Rensselaer, county the Democratic
ship of state is floating lazily In the
doldrums. The trouble there seems lack
of coordinated leadership. Joseph Muir
ply, for many years a factor in Demo-
cratic affairs in Troy and its environs.
has evidently lost all interest in poll
tics. In the city of Troy, which has 4
considerable Democratic voting popu-
lace, there seems to be an almost equal
division of opinion on Hearst as a de-
sirable candidate.
In Schenectady county. where George
r. Lunn. fourth term Mayor of Schenee-
tady, rules the Democratic organization.
there is considerable Hearst sentiment.
While Mayor Lunn has not said 80
openly, there is we'll defined impress
sion that he would not be adverse to
climbing on the band wagon If iie
thought the New York publisher stood
q reasonable chance of obtaining the
nomination.
Mayor Lunn has long entertained an
ambition to have his name placed on
the State ticket of his party. AS a
matter of fact, 1t is common gossip THAI
the only reason Mayor Lunn made up
his mind to again become Mayor of
Schenectady was to show Democratic
leaders in the State his strength in his
home sector.
