Alonzo B. See, Elevator
Builder, Says They Teach
Smoking and Slang.
ADVOCATES HARD WORK
POurs Out Wrath When Asked
to Aid Adelphi College
Building Fund.

Womens colleges should be burned
as places in which girls learn to
smoke cigarettes. use slang, swagger,
become bold and braZen and acquire
other Objectionable habits. according
to Alonzo B. See, head of the A. B. See
Electric Elevator Company of So Vesey
street, Manhattan, whose home Is at
373 Clinton avenue, Brooklyn. These
sentiments were expressed in letter
yesterday in reply to a communication
from Adelphi College soliciting sup
port in it's drive for funds for the
erection Of new college buildings.
Psychology. logic and philosophy are
described in the letter "as a lot Of stuff
which could only be concocted In the
diseased brains of college professors
Mr. Sees letter says in part:
II have received copy of your letter
asking me to subscribe toward the fund
for new college building. II had
my way / would burn all the women's
colleges in the country. The young
women of our country do need to be
educated. but the education they need
is to leave or smoking cigarettes. stop
using slang. stop their staggering, give
up their bold and brazen manners. their
paint and their powder and their lip
sticks, and their high heeled shoes, and
TO cease to dress indecently.
"Of all the fool things in the world
| think the college for women is worst.
When they graduate from the colleges
they cannot write legible hand. They
know nothing about the English Ian
guage. They cannot spell. They are
thoroughly ignorant of the things whicsi
they should know and they have their
brains twisted by studying psychology,
logic and philosophy. and a lot OF other
stuff not only useless but absolutely
harmful lot of stuff which could have
been concocted only in the diseased
brains OF college professors.
Brooklyn women used to be highly
honored and respected by the men, but
that day is largely passing away. And
this is due more perha ps to the effect
that the colleges are having on the col
lege women than to anything else. Moth
ing could be better for the girls that are
now IN the colleges than to be taken out
OF the colleges and put to hard manual
labor for at least a year so that there
might be put into their heads some little
trace OF sense"

Mr.. Norman declined TO express an
opinion on why the union had struck
some Jobs and not all, but others among
the employers described this as a ges-
ture at which they were supposed to
have taken TO cover--and hadn't. Ac-
cording to their version. the bricklayers
had long since served notice they were
averse to handling materials served
them by the non-union laborers in the
Brindell wing. Demand was made for
wholesale discharge OF independents"

improved Sentiment for Franco

Opinion respecting the outlook for
France seems in the financial district
to be slightly more susceptible to cur
rent influence than that, say. for Great
Britain, or even Germany. The French
stand on the submarine question
caused softening in French exchange
and also in The quotation of French
government issues. The effect of that
incident appears TO have been dissi-
pated, and francs and French bonds
arc now moving in the other direc-
tion. French 7i2s. not so long ago
dealt in at 94. were yesterday firm
around 95. Exchange on Paris moved
up about four points. The explanation
lies in the expectation that important
benefits will accrue to France from
the Cannes conference and that the in
vitation to Russia to participate in
the Genoa meeting will lead to ulti-
mate settlement of that country's ex-
tcrnal debt, in which France is prob
ably most heavily interested.

Oil Company of New Jersey, has been
succeeded by G. w. Mayer, of the I'M

remembered in the Street as one of the
men who several years ago were sent
down to operate the Watcr-Pierce oil
properties, an event which was fol-
lowed by the celebrated fight between
the Standard Oil and the Pierce in
terests. Another Standard Oil change
announced yesterday was the election
of A. b. Brooks to the board of the
Standard Oil Company of California, to
