Beach Crowd Sees Flyers
Plunge 500 Feet Unhurt
Aviators Save Lives by Shifting
TO Bottom of Plane as 1t
Upsets i'm Midair

Two aviators whose engine went dead
500 feet above the Lower Bay off Mid
land Beach, Staten Island, little be-
fore 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon
found themselves riding upright on the
top of their capsized plane ten seconds
later, drenched and shaken, but other
wise unhurt. Neither of them quite
knew how he had managed to climb
around to the upper side of the nit
when the hydroairplane turned over 500
feet above the water and went plunrinp
downward. They were so surprised at
findlng that they had not been crushed
between the machine and the water that
they showed little interest in the man
ner of their escape.
About six thousand pleasure seekers
on Midland Beach, who had rasned
when they saw the accident and hod
forgotten all about tho bathing in tho
excitement of watching a motor hoat
put out to the rescue, cheered franti-
cally when they learned that the av;-
ators were still alive. Their interest in
the plane was famed a few minutes
later by seeing it disappear under the
water. '-'>
A buoy was placed over the snot
where the machine was last seen, and
early IN the evening the wreck wa q
towed to New Dorp beach. 1t was
owned and piloted at the time of the
accident by James Halstead, an in
ventor, who lives in New Dorp. with

The technical stuff about the tene-
ment house laws was obtained from
Vincent A. Pepe.
"The tenement house laws" Mr.. Pepe
said yesterday, "do not permit more
than two housekeeping apartments in
most of the old houses. If we fix up
the rooms on the third floor we are
not permitted to install a sink or let the
tenants put in gas stove. Thus, they
can't cook there any more. Making
the improvements costs som mething and
we have to add it to the rent. We put
in electric lights and steam heat and
paint the place.
at is too bad if poor artists are COM
PEELED to move away, but lot of big
artists are still living with us. Lots
of people hire studios and then sublet
them, anyway, and that forces rents up.
"About those wild nights and i'm
proper conditions, 1 only know of three
cases among my tenants where they
have studio places here and live some
where else most of the time. In one
case it is a man and wife They live
at the Plaza ordinarily, but sometimes
they come down here for few days,
and we do not object because they are
married. There is no objection to mar

Lots of people like the freedom, even if
they are not artists, and the old resi-

Rome Insists Allies Must
Concede Turkish Victory

ROME, Sept. II (By The Associated
Press).-"Italy must not allow Lloyd
George TO tug her into an armed anti
Turkish crusade in order to guarantee
England's permanence in CONSTANT
nople," says the "Giornale Roma"
voicing it's opinion on the Near East
situation.
Signor Schanzer, the Foreign Min
lister, favors the freedom of the
Straits and insists that the Allies
should treat directly with Turkey, call
ing conference to meet at Venice
or elsewhere and taking the situation
after Mustapha Kemals entrance into
Smyrna as the basis of discussion
for new settlement in the Near East.
The Allies, according to the Italian
Foreign Minister, must acknowledge
the Turkish victory as definite, which
would help in preventing the Angora
government from overestimating its
success. If this viewpoint is not ac-
cepted it is declared that italy will
resume her liberty of action.

PARIS, Sept. II (By The Associated
Press) The French governments pol.
icy in the Near East, while unalterably
committed to the freedom Of the Dar-
daneiles and the. Bosporus, is declared
to favor moral persuasion rather than
military and naval arguments. The
semi official note published in London
Saturday night asking the Balkan
states to cooperate with Great Britain
effectively to defend the threatened
Straits against Turkish aggression has
met with q lukewarm reception In
French official circles.
Precipitate defensive military and
naval preparations against what is
termed problematical attack from
Mustapha Kemal Pasha, the Turkish
Nationalist leader, are reckoned in off,
cial circles here to be ill-tmed. France
holds the inside track with the Angora
government by virtue of an agreement
signed between Henry Franklin Bouil-
Ion, head of the Foreign Relations
Committee Of the Chamber of Deputies,
and Mustapha kemal Pasha In 1921,
and the French government considers
that military preparations in Thrace, or
on the European side of the Straits,
would be waving, the red flag to an
army flushed with victory and whose

but the most moderate of desires.

the present at least, be wrong and i'll
timed
The French government, while de-
sirous to cooperate with tho London
Foreign Office in an effort to guarantee
the neutrality of the Straits of the
Dardanelles, on the other haud differs
with it regarding the means to arrive
at that end. 1t Is held by the French
that Mustapha Kemal Pasha will be
amenable to persuasion, that he will
respect inter-Allied supervision of Con-
stantinople from Scutari, which will be
satisfactory to the French, while if
military pressure is threatened the
Nationalist leader may be swept along
by his victorious troops and be COM
PEELED to march upon Constantinople.
Kcmal Expected To Be Reasonable
That the Turkish Nationalist Gov
ernment has every interest to accept
the decision of the European powers
that the Straits must remain open, is
the gist of unofficial information and
advice that has been conveyed from the
Quai d'Orsay to Mustapha Kemal
Pasha' in the last few days. 1t is felt
that while Kemal has had no time to
reply, tho Angora government will
understand the marching upon
0OHSldHLluOpie WOulu cause lTTSlne-
diable loss Of the sympathy of
the European powers and that Kemal
will refrain from such action.
Thus the French and British policies
in the Near East are absolutely diver
gent. 1t is the feeling at the Quai
dOrsay that Downing Street desires
to form Balkan bloc against an
eventual invasion of Thrace by the
Turks, which has been described as
"tho mobilizing of Don Quixotes
against unbuilt windmills." The French
Foreign Office is in Constant COM
munication with Kemal," and expresses
the opinion that the Nationalsts will
rot attempt to establish themselves
beyond the Martha line, unless they
are maneuvred into doing so by Great
Britain's "ill-timed threats"
