IN CITY OWNED TRANSIT
Says Scrapping Of Old Lines
Would Cost 500. 600, 900.

George McAneny, chairman OF the
Transit Commission. in outlining the
unified transportation plan OF the COM
mission at luncheon of the womens s
Municipal League at the Hotel Astor
yesterday. said that if the city owned
the transit system the people of New
York would save between $4,000. 900 and
s12 100000 in taxes a year.
The city. Mr.. McAneny thought, has
been misled concerning many things in
the transit situation. Citing an in
stance, he declared that IL the railroads
had not declared such large dividends
a few years ago they now would be
able to operate more trains over their
lines for the accommodation of the
travelling public. With reference TO the
suggestion that the elevated and sur
face lines be scrapped. Mr.. McAneny
said such a policy would cost about
500 090.0c0. He declared the New York
surface lines to be disgrace in com

POPE NOT A PRISONER,

The ceremonies attending the installa-

Italian Government was unfounded, Wit
torio Rolandi Ricci. Italian Ambassador
to the United States, said last night in
Central Park South His invitation to
speak before the club was cited by the
Ambassador as evidence that the fam
tastic tales Of the past were untrue.

Government is his jailer since Plus NJ.

ROME, March 16 (Associated Press)
1t is probable, says the GioTndic
dTtahd to-day, that Pope Plus will come
out of the Vatican to take part in the
procession from st. Peters to the Church
Of San Giovanni in Laterano on the oc-
casion of the Eucharistic Congress next
May. The newspaper attributes the pre-
diction 10 one of the Vatican Monsignori,
whom ii interviewed.
According to the Vatican official the
Pope may be carried in the procession in
the Sedia Gestatoria, or portable throne
used on occasions of state.
This would break a precedent estab-
iished Mt the time of the Papal loss OF
temporal power in 1870, since which no
Pope has gone outside the Vatican. IL
would not, however, according to the
authority quoted, mean a change in the
attitude of the Holy See toward the
Italian Government. any more than did

PARIS IN WAR FULL
OF GERMAN SPIES

SneoioI cable to TIE New YoRK HERALD.

Paris was filled with paid German
spies during the war. but only forty y-five

according TO Col. Emile Massard, who
commanded the counter-spy section in
the Paris region up to the armistice. Col.
Massard recently described the thrilling
career and the punishment OF the dancer
Mati-Hari, who was convicted OF being a
spy for the enemy and was executed by
the French.
To-day TIE Liberte prints the first of
a series of narratives by Col. Massard.
not only telling how the German spies
worked but showing how they neglected
tiny details OF their scheme. thereby en-
abling the French army's counter es-
pionage service to bring them tc justice
jim one case just in time to prevent the
dynamiting of the Hotel des Invalides
and numerous apartments near by, oc-
cupied by military authorities.
At one time. according to Col. Mas
sard. the espionage service directed from
Berlin the operations of more than S,OO0
hired girls, placed in various hotels and
cafes: 700 ex-officers in French business
houses. so beautiful Prussian girls in
the army canteens in French garrison
towns and 200 specially selected servants

ter German spies in Brussels. Amster-
dam. Geneva and Lausanne.
Just to give an example of how intri-
cate a problem It was to catch these
spies, once the war was declared, Col.
Massard recounts the visit of dashing
young officer wearing the tabs OF the
French General Staff, who arrived early
one morning at the artillery park In
Paris. When the commandant OF the
park was notified he decided to inves-
tigate personally and found the officer
examining anti-aircraft and other guns
with the precision of an expert.
The commandant shrewdly asked the
visitor to aid him in counting the weap-
ons aloud Although the latter seemed
to scent danger, he could not refuse
such q simple request. When he called
out the number "twenty-ninth'' (vingt-
neuvieme) the peculiar combination OF
two "vs" with IT. in the middle
proved his undoing, for the combination
is one the German tongue is unable to
master. invariably pronouncing the sec
ond "v'' as an r." With a shout OF
rage the commandant felled his visitor
and turned him over to the guard, who
discovered hidden in the visitors boot
a certificate Identifying him as a Ger
man officer. A hasty court-martial fol-
lowed and within a few minutes the
spy was bound to the execution post.

MAKE YOUR BOYS
WORK, SAYS DAVIS
Parents Wrong in Letting
Children Have Too Much
Advantage, He Asserts.

James ]. Davis, Secretary of Labor. at
a meeting of the women's department OF
the National Civic Federation In the
Waldorf yesterday told how thousands
of aliens are getting into the United
States illegally from Cuba. Mexico and
South America. The figures and other
data he gave were similar to those
already published in THE NEW YORK
HERALD as the result of an investiga-
tion OF its own.
Mr.. Davis bespoke support for the
bill which he drafted requiring the en-
rollment OF every alien in the United
States. He said It would enable the
Government to check up the undesirables
and would work no hardship on the man
who was honestly trying to establish
himself here.
Mr.. Davis stirred UP the Civic Fed
erationsts with plea for old fashioned
training for boys and girls.
Il want my boy to work a share OIL
the time when he's not i'm school, he
said II want him to fuss around ma
chinery il he wants to. i believe one
half the trouble we have with our young
people is due 10 the fact that our
mothers and fathers are what we term
soft Too many parents are saying, I
had to struggle when I was young and

vantages that | didn't

And now even the washerwoman Is pat
terning after the Joneses. who give their

than that we've got to work for what we
get That's one fact you can't change"
The Secretary asked his audience not
to believe all the sob" stories they
read about alien families divided by the
working of the immigration law. Usually.
he said, all the facts were not told. He
cited case of family part OF which
was supposed to have been deported and
said the truth was that the whole family
was deportcd because every member was
seriously diseased.
He said that conditions at Ellis Island
had improved and that further better
ment will be effected with the money
recently voted by Congress

A Greatly Expanded Program

considerable quantities of ma
terial will be shipped on orders
already placed. This applies to
all classes of radio sets and ap-
paratus, including Radiotrons.
Vacuum Tubes, etc, which are
employed for reception.
The assurance can be given
that every scientific, manufacture
ing, organizing and financial re-
source of the Radio Corporation
of America is being used to the
utmost in the endeavor to meet
the demand for radio devices.
We are working to the utmost,
not merely to supply the present
concerted and, naturally, impa-
tient demand, but to put into
every set and every piece of equip
ment complete quality, and as
much permanent satisfaction as
rapidly developing art will permit.
We are asking the aid of our
distributors and dealers in ex-
planning the capabilities and limi-
tations of radio sets and appara-
tus, and we welcome their CO.
operation and indulgence, as well
as that of the public itself, until
the present expansion program
enables us to meet the present de-
mand.

The sense Of responsibility to
the public which, in response to
the suggestion of representatives
Of the Government, brought the
Radio Corporation Of America
into the field of international
communication to compete with
foreign controlled cables, is ac-
tive now in the desire to take
whatever risks are necessary to
further the domestic develop

In evidence of this, the fac

FRENCH PREMIER
WINNER IN VOTE
Poincare More Firmly Seated In
Saddle Than Before Despite Enc
mics Attack When He is
Given Vote Confidence.

Paris, Dec. 16.-Despite attempts
of his political opponents in the
chamber of deputies to make the
breakdown of the premiers' confer
ence at London an excuse to over
throw him, Premier Poincare was
more firmly in the saddle than ever
today, strengthened by an over
whelming vote of confidence given
him by the chamber last night.
The strength of the "bloc ma
tionale," which stuck to Poncare
when strong interpretations by Depu
ties Tardieu and Harriet threatened
his position, accounted for the pre-
mier having an overwhelming man
date to continue reparations parleys
on his present platform-'France
will act alone, if necessary"
The vote of confidence was car.
ried 512 to rs.
Opposition to Poincare's policies Is
growing, nevertheless. Many polit.
ical observers feel that reticence
of deputies to overthrow the prime
minister at such an important juno
ture in international affairs was
largely responsible for his victory.

The paper argues that the United

Tremendous curiosity has been
aroused here and on the continent
as TO the form American aid for

that even Ambassador Harvey was
entirely ignorant as to what the
White House intended to do.
The enthusiastic reception given
announcement of the step proposed
by President Harding by the British
press was echoed somewhat less
warmly across the channel. The
French conservative press has re-
ports of determined American oppo.
sition to Frances Ruhr occupation

United States may come to Europe's

In London. it is felt that France
can prevent American intervention
by adopting recalcitrant attitude
towards Germany. For that reason,
the strong vote of confidence won
by Poincare is considered signifi-
cant of danger TO the whole scheme.
British circles understand that
much depends upon the outcome Of
the premiers' conference, which is to
be resumed at Paris next month.
