MILES OF MOVING WALK
is NEW YORK PLAN
TO OPERATE VELIN G
PLATFORM is NOVEL PROF.
ECT IN METROPOLIS.

New York city will spend $318,O00,-
900 within FIVE years to make it easier
for residents and more difficult for
visitors to find their way around the
town. By 1927, if the transit commits
sion's program goes through, there
will be 81 miles more of subway, "a
miles more of track, and numerous 9TH
er interesting innovations, such as a
moving sidewalk across the island I'M
der Forty-second street.
Manhattan's chief interest lies in the
proposed building of another trunk
subway, running north and south, and
the extension of the so-called Broad
way subway northward under Central
Park to One Hundred and Fifty fifth
street.
Platform Two Miles Long.
But the visitors will find their prin-
cipal attention focused on the great
moving platform that will carry them
from Grand Central station, where they
arrive, to the bright lights district on
Broadway, which is usually where
they want to go. The platform will
be two miles long, and will move rap
idly enough to cut down materially
the time usually required to get from
the Grand Central to Times Square.
If it is successful it will be followed
by other cross-town moving sidewalks.
At present the visitor makes his
way painfully, by attempting to fol
low certain green lines or black
lines" through a labyrinth of under
ground construction, to the terminus
of shuttle" line. The shuttle carries
him to Times Square, where another
maze of passages greets his already
bewildered senses.

Hula Hula Girls Are
Myths, Says Publisher
Grass Skirts Made in Connecticut and
Shipped to Hawaii.

CHICAGO.-The Hawaiian hula
hula girls grass skirts are mostly
made in Connecticut and the hula hula
dance itself is put on mainly for the
benefit OF tourists, while the real Ha-
waii is a progressive business country,
declared d. w. Stevick, newspaper
publisher News Gazette OF Cham
paign, ILL.,, today before the Inland
Press Association.
"Ukeleles, hula hula girls and grass
skirts are purely mythical" said Mr.
Stevick, who has just returned from a
trip around the world. The import
ance of Honolulu as a great CONNER
cial center is little realized by the
American public. The average Ameri-
can pictures Honolulu as a place OF
romance. great tropical island with
native Hawaiian girls gracefully doing
the hula hula, grass huts grass skirts
and ukeleles.
Many of these dreams are realized
expressly for the profit of the tourist.
The typical primitive dance OF the Ha-
waiians is little like Belle Fatima's
startling muscle dance The grass
huts? They don't exist except in the
museums. The modern cottage is
much more sanitary.
The grass skirts? They are made
mostly in Connecticut and shipped to
Hawaii for the benefit of the tourist.
Waikiki beach is merely nice dream
placc fo- shc tired business man.
Honolulu is really great business
city-a great seaport"

Dates Announced for Final
Treatment of Late Peaches
Only One More Application Needed
Say Government Specialists.

The Government and State Labora-
tory at Fort Valley says Hileys will
be ready for the final spray of arsenate
of lead and self-boiled lime-sulphur or
S0-5-15 dust the first week in June. II
the acreage is large start the spraying
on this variety June LIST, however, If
the acreage can be covered in a day
or two wait until June 5th before
starting Georgia Bellies will be ready
for this final spray June 18th to 18th,
and Elbertas June 18th to goth. Do
not make this last application to Geor-
gia Bellies and E1bertas Immediately
after the Hileys are sprayed. Wait un-
til the above dates.
The new generation Of curculio bee
ties will be in the orchards during the
month of June, consequently special
care should be taken to make the final
spraying very thorough in order to
control the second generation OF
worms" 1t is this second brood OF
larvae that causes the late peaches to
be Wormy.
Late peaches will need only the one
more application of spray, consisting
of both the arsenate of lead and sui
phur, unless a great deal of rainy
weather occurs near picking time. II
weather conditions are particularly ia
vorable for the development of brown
rot Just before harvest an additional
application of self-boiled lime-sulphur

able

Half Million Hangs
On Who Died First
Knotty Legal Problem in Case OF
Aged Couple Asphyxiated in Hotel.

NEW YORK, N. Y.-An intricate
legal problem arose when the wills of
Mr.. and Mrs. Fremont M. Jackson,
the aged couple killed last week by
cyanogen fumes released by fumiga-
tor in the Hotel Margaret Annex, at
Brooklyn, were taken from a safety
deposit box here.
If it can be established that Jackson
died even a few seconds before his
65-year-old bride her heirs may claim
dover share in his estate, estimated
at $500,000, since the law holds that
at the instant of death that share
would have passed to the widow
| The body OF Jackson was exhumed
by representatives of District Attor-
ney Ruston, of Brooklyn. Jackson had
been buried at Springfield, N. j. in a
grave adjoining that in which his first
wife was placed nearly half century
ago. 1t is believed that DR.. Ernest M.
Vaughan, the Brooklyn prosecutor S
medical examiner, removed Jackson's
lungs and that tests will be applied to
them in an effort to clinch the theory
that the Jacksons were killed by cy-
anogen gas.
Jackson's will was drawn in January,
1920, more than a year before his mar
riage 1t leaves personal property and
West Fifty-Third street apartment
house to Mrs. Yara Esther Brainerd,
of East Orange, N. J., niece of his
first wife. The residue of the estate, in
realty, stocks and bonds, is to be divid-
ed equally between Mrs. Brainerd and
