Vice Society Must Pay $500
For Excess of Zenl as Censor
court OF Appeals Upholds Verdict Given Raymond
ID. Halsey; 'Madernoisele de Maupin'' Not I'm
pure Because Heroine Dotted Trousers for Skirt

The Court of Appeals has upheld, It
was announced yesterday, an award of
$4,000 made by jury in the Supreme
Court in 1920 to Raymond D. Halsey
in an action he brought against the
Society for the Suppression of Vice
for false arrest in connection with the
sale by him Of a copy Of Theophile
Gautier's "Mademoiselle de Maupin."
At the first trial of Mr.. Halsey's ac-
tion he obtained verdict for $1,s0O,
but the society succeeded in having
this set aside on technicality.
Mr.. Halsey was employed by Nc
Dewitt Wilson, Inc, book concern at
80 Church Street, when an agent for
the society bought a copy of Mad
emoiselle de Maupin" from him and
arrested him as soon as he had read as
far as the page where the heroine de-
cides not to masquerade as man any
longer.
When the case came up in Special
Sessions Mr.. Halsey was acquitted Of
the charge Of selling indecorous litera-
ture. Then he began his legal fight
to put the Society for the Suppression
New-York tribune., 1922-07-18

Of Vice definitely in the wrong, which
has resulted in the careful persual of
"Mademoiselle de Maupin" by Justices
Of the Supreme Court and the Appel
late Division and the Judges Of. the
Court of Appeals.
In effect, they all reached the con-
clusion that every book is as much
entitled to one bite as is the dog of
legal fame, thet "Mademoiselle de
MaUpin" was not to be condemned for
one slip, or whatever it was she took
off on the page to which the society
objected and that there was no ground
for Mr.. Halsey's arrest.
When the society appealed from the
first verdict of $500, however, the
Appellate Division held that the case
should be tried again, because the
justice who presided at the first trial
had ruled as matter of law that the
defendant had not violated the Penal
Code, when this was q question which
should have been left to the jury.
The second trial took place in 1920
and the jury, after reading "Mademoi-
selle de Maupin'' as zealously as had
their predecessors, decided that Mr..
Halsey's arrest for selling the book
was worth S700 more than the first
jury had estimated.

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, July II (By The
Associated Press),--Senator La Fol-
lette, opening his campaign for re-
nomination in keynote speech here
tonight, attacked predatory wealth, as
serting it had reached undreamed Of
proportions and that it dominated the
Washington arms congress, the tariff
and other important Republican leris-
lation. He was not q pessimist. he
said, and believed a way out would be
found.
The four-power treaty was de-
nounced as un-Amer:can. The arms
conference, he said, was designed to
protect financial interests, not lives.
The Senator asserted that monopo-
listic control Of industry through over
capitalization was the greatest cause
of present industrial disease" Ia
overcome monopoly he proposed the
government taking back control of nat
ural resources and maintaining a strict
leasing system, to give all manufac-
turers an equal opportunity. He pre-
dicted that the government would not
have to fix the prices under this sys-
tenn.
Agriculture is almost PROSTATE, in

even while idle, and about to be sold

OPERATORS AGREE
TO 1921 COALPRICE
Government and Anthracite
Producers Virtually Fix
Stabilization Plan.

Special Dispatch to THE New YORK HERALD.
WASHINGTON. d. c.. Sept. 21.-An
agreement has been virtually reached
between coal operators and Government
officials for stabilization of anthracite
prices the coming fall and winter. Sec
retary OF Commerce Hoover said to-day.
Anthracite prices will be adjusted on
basis of those in effect last April, be-
fore the mine strike began. This con-
templates a price of about $500 a ton
at the mine, for stove sizes. most In
demand by consumers. Announcement
of the result of anthracite price confer
ences. which have been in progress for
two weeks. may be made tomorrow.
Secretary Hoover said that the tentative
agreement has removed fears of a run
away market.
Consumers should be able to buy an
thracite coal for about the same price
as was charged last winter" Mr. Hoover
said. while there has been a special
tax imposed by the State OF Pennsyl-
vania since the strike began last April.
this will be wholly Offset by reduced
freight rates. The consumer should fig
ure on the mine price and additional
charges for transportation and for the
cealers' charge"
President Harding tomorrow will an
nounce appointment of Federal Fuel
Commissioner. created by the Cummins
bill. The new commissioner first will
seek to set up machinery throughout
the country for voluntary cooperation
with the Government in obtaining ade-
quate distribution of coal to localities
where needs are most pressing. Henry

appointment.
Mr.. Hoover said the present coal dis
tribution program aims to direct an
thracite produced by the mines into
places where there are emergency de-
mands from day TO day. He believed
this to be the most helpful way OF deal
ing with the situation at present Virtu-
ally no anthracite is being shipped south
or west of Pennsylvania except to a
few large cities such as Washington
and Baltimore.
Mr.. Hoover said the big problem Is
one OF transportation rather than coal
supply. The effort OF the Government
will be to drive coal shipments through
to localities In greatest need. In this
task officials are not unmindful OF the
fact that thousands of coal consumers.
particularly OF hard coal. will expert
ence disappointment at not getting their
accustomed supply in as large volume.
It will be a case of consumers getting
only sufficient coal for their current
needs from the present transportation
uncertainty, officials declared.
The railroads are employing all of the
equipment at their command to meet
coal necessities. A new high mark since
settlement of the anthracite strike for
the number OF cars loaded with anthra-
cite was made on Tuesday. the total
for that day being 5,725 cars, or an in
crease of 54S cars over the preceding
day and 276 cars in excess Of the aver
age loading anthracite In September.

to 29.496 cars on Tuesday, a decrease Of
1884 cars below the preceding day.
