the following ration to be most
practical;
$50 corn and cob meal
100 ground oats and barley
100 bran
100 soy bean meal
Note the ration can all be
raised on Lafayette County
farms. Feed lib of above ra-
ton to a lbs of milk produced

general welfare of the City Of New
York.
Having the responsibility Of speak

is incumbent upon this association to
make such study of the street and its
uses; Of conditions which have and
may effect such uses; and of it's pub

operate to the prejudice of the street
and it's full usefulness.
We recognize the necessity for the
development and adoption, through
some proper agency of government, of
a definite plan for the coordination,
rapid expansion and efficient operation
of the various means of transporta-
ton which may be said TO make up
the transit system of the city. We
appreciate that such a plan must not
only comprehend present needs but
must look far enough into the future
to provide adequately for the prob
able requirements of a considerable
period Of years to come.

address by the chairman Of the transit

Forty-second and so on. Broadway, as
the city's main thoroughfare, extend
ing from Bowling Green to Kings
bridge, has felt and marked each Of
these changes.
The point of tho chairman's refer
ence was that these changes were, to a
large extent, consciously brought about
under system Of city planning, which
through building restrictions and by
directing new lines of travel, effected
a distribution of business over wider
area and the relocations which have
taken place.
There must come time, however,
when city planning shall concern itself
with the process of stabilizing the ex-
listing and recognized districts so as
to protect them, and prevent their
abandonment and the disuse of existing
facilities. If that be so, and if that

ship of the property in question.
This property, worth 100000, had
gone begging for an owner, surprising
is it may appear. How this amazing
thing came about is quite natural. Some
of the details remain dark and mystic
rious. In the main, however, the case
was succinctly made out In the hard
times following the Great French War
and Waterloo the governors of the
foundation. finding themselves in lack
of funds, sold the ground rents Of this
particular estate for the whole term
of the lease.
They had protected their right to the
ground itself by reserving to them
selves an annual payment in the form
of perpercorn rent. This nominal
rent had been paid to them for a gen
Grafton and more, then being very tri-
fling in amount, and had apparently
been allowed to be paid in accumulated
arrears. In time the arrears had been
allowed TO lapse.
At any rate, this peppercorn rent was
forgotten, and all INN ediate record of
it disappeared. The result was the
gl ound and houses would have become

Cin,bels Plan to Haze One of
The Largest Stores in World
Lease Closed Last Week for Possession of Saks Build
ing Will Give Merchants Two Blocks ON Sixth
Avenue; Will Take Over Property in 1924

What constituted the biggest real es-
tate deal of the week was contained in
the announcement by Isaac Gimbel,
president of Gimbel Bros, few days
ago, that his firm had signed a long
term lease for the nine-story building
now occupied by Saks e. Co., Just
across Thirty-third Street from the
present Gimbel establishment. for an
aggregate rental of $8,O0O,0OO
The deal was the contamination Of
negotiations which have been going on
for some time between Isaac Gimbel
and George Whelan, president of the
United Cigar Stores Company, who
held the lease beginning May, 1924,
when Saks & Co. will move to their new
building on Fifth Avenue, from Forty
ninth to Fiftieth streets.
The taking over of this building by
Gimbel Bros. is further demonstra-
ton of their faith in the desirablity
OF the Thirty-third and Thirty fourth
Street shopping center, for it was only
four years ago that Gimbel Bros. bought
outright the land and building where
they are now located.
Gimbels Take Entire Building
1t developed during the week that,
contrary to the general impression, the
United Cigar Stores Company is not
to retain any part of the property for
a cigar store, but that Gimbel Bros.
have acquired the entire property for
an addition to their business. This is
contrary to the policy that has marked
its previous real estate transactions
in this city.
The two buildings represent one of
the largest retail store holdings in the
world.
Some idea of the size of the hold
ings can be CLEANED from the fact that
there will be frontage on Broadway
of 400 feet, or two city blocks; 400
feet on Thirtysecond Street, on the
south side of Thirty-thrd Street 400
feet, on the north side of Thirty-third
Street 100 feet, on the south side Of
Thirtyfourth Street 100 feet.
Aside from the desirability of the
location from the standpoint of pedes-

Of Mortgages
Testimony Given Before In.
vestigating Boards Shows
Such Investments Are
Surer Than Many Others

Testimony taken recently before the
Committee on Ways and Means of the
House of Representatives at Washing
ton and the Lockwood Legislative In
vestigating Committee in this state
shows conclusively the value of mort
cages on real property as safe and
certain investment for trust and other
funds.
At Washington representatives Of
trust companies, insurance companies
and savings banks unanimously testi-
fled to the extremely low percentage
of loss in such securities held by their
companies, while on the other hand
they admitted heavy losses in other
forms of securities.
The Real Estate Board of New York
accepts this testimony as sufficient rea-
son for making mortgage as market
able as first grade Stock Exchange Sc
curities and as acceptable as collateral
in loaning institutions. The board
calls attention to testimony taken re-
Gently by the Lockwood committee in
which officials Of insurance companies
admitted extremely heavy losses in
stocks and bonds, especially of indus
trials, and scarcely any loss in the
comparatively small amount of mort
cages held by them. The report Of the
Hughes committee some years ago was
to the same effect.
Trustees Who Bought Stocks
"The following is an interesting
illustration of what has happened by
the investment Of trust funds in other
forms of securities, says the board
in statement issued yesterday.
"An institution devoted to a very
worthy charity received donation
of 100000 several years ago. The
trustees of the organization instead
of loaning the money on bond and
mortgage, although the demand for
mortgage money for housing was very
great, bought carefully selected bonds
and stocks listed on the New York
Stock Exchange. To-day some Of these

ing Gimbel Brothers store on Thirty
third Street, to which the store can
be reached from six direct entrances.
1t is too early yet to make any defin-
lite announcement of plans for the
actual physical linking together of the
two structures, but it was pointed out
that at the present time the bridge of
the Sixth Avenue elevated Thirty third
Street station now links the Saks
building and the Gimbel building by
direct entrances on the second floors
of these buildings.
The original Gimbel business was
started about seventy-five years ago
at Vincennes, Ind, where Adam Gimbel
had a fur trading post at old Fort
Vincennes. About thirty years ago the
first Gimbel department store was
started in Milwaukee, Wis, where it
now occupies an entire business block
A few years later the Gimbels started

block; and twelve years ago they moved
into this city with their store at Broad
way and Thirty third Street. The an
nual volume of business in all their
stores is said to approximate $780,

The members of the Gimbel firm in
this city are Isaac Gimbel, Louis S.
Gimbel, Bernard F. Gimbel, Frederic
A. Gimbel, Lee Adam Gimbel and John

Not A RECOGNITION.

Admitting to the country representa-
tive from Russia who will have charge
of the expenditure Of the ten million
dollars that have been appropriated by
that country for the purchase of supplies
in this country in addition to double that
sum which has been voted by congress
for that aid Of the starving is not to be
regarded as extending recognition to the
soviet government.
1t is simply a case where Russia is
doing something for the relief, of its own
people. and in recognition Of the help
which has been and is being furnished by
this country the Russian funds are to be
used for the acquiring Of food supplies
in this country. 1t is only natural I'M
der such circumstances that those who
are furnishing the money should desire
to supervise the expenditure and as
might be expected such supervision can
be satisfactorily accomplished by having
a representative authorized to spend
such money located in this country. 1t
has been possible for some time for those
who desired to carry on trade with the
cooperative organizations of Russia 1t
was trade to which this government gave
no guarantees but in view of the fact
that such trade was possible from this
country there seems to be no reason why
trade agents from Russia should be ex-
Guided The matter is simply business
transaction which in no way involves
this government. We are to buy and
transport our own grain for the relief
and Russia has the same privilege. The
admission of representative to do the
purchasing is thus by no means unreas-
enable.
| Possibly those who are furnishing the
money for the Russian relief in Russia
| feel quite The same as we did about tn.
distribution Of such foodstuffs as we
have advanced, that is that it should BIZ
done by our representatives and those il
whom there is confidence. Certainly an!

win have to come through decidedly diff
fsrent channels than the admission of

LOoKING BACK OK 1871.

While we are at the point where we
are inclined to take an optimistic view
ahead, make resolutions which should
help US to accomplish desirable things
and undertake our tasks with increased
courage it is but natural to look back
and think over the past twelve months.
1t is a year in which new admins
tration took hold of the reins of gov
eminent and as the result much benefi-
eial legislation has been obtained, in
which response has been made to a wide
national demand for changes and better
ments and as the result of which a cor
responding degree of confidence has been
created among the people.
1t is year in which the machinery of
government has been well employed in
reconstruction. the elimination of the I'M
necessary and wasteful and the cutting
of expenditures with its correspond ding
effect upon federal taxes.
Likewise it was the year in wnfcf
peace was established after continuing
| in a technical state of war for three
years despite the desire of the nation Il
get rid of the technicality that It might
overcome imitation and the uncertainty
in connection with all undertakings.
But perhaps the greatest achievement
! Of all which promises to develop Into {
success exceeding our fondest hopes
is the conference called by the presiden
upon the limitation of armament. B.
this gathering of delegates and the sub
sequent endorsement by the respectiv
nations there promises to be results o
far reaching importance toward worlt
peace in the future, through an under
standing among nations through the ad
justment Of problems that could easil
be made causes for war and through
reduction in naval armament that wi
overcome that suspicion between nation
which encourages costly navies and tn
displa yof force.
AS the result Of these accomplish
ments. as far as they have gone, the re
duction in unemployment and the bright
er outlook for Industrial activity It is BIT
proper that we should enter the new yea

lice authorities work as in the way in
which the criminals are treated after
they are caught.
In this connection there is an interest
ing report from the files of one Of New
Yorks county courts which shows that
of the 1885 criminals who were brought
before the judges during eleven months
of the year sentence was suspended upon
519 or 43.4 per cent, and they Were men
and women convicted by plea or trial Of
nearly every crime in the penal code
from petty larceny to rnanslaughter. And
in these cases perhaps the worst feature
is that suspended sentences have been
individual. One young man continued
TO steal automobiles under suspended
sentences until he had been arrested four
times. Then the judge seemed to think
that advantage was being taken Of the
court and sentenced him to jail, but
throughout it all no thought seemed to
have been given to protecting the pub

Such displays Of leniency cannot fail
