ycsto.day places much Of the blame for
the congestion in tho Canal Street
B. r. r. station on the city's failure to
complete this line.
Approximately 100000 passengers a
day it is set forth, "who now travel
between the vicinity of East New York
in Brooklyn and Fourteenth Street and
Broadway in Manhattan, via the
Broadway (Brooklyn) elevated line,
have been and are compelled to change
cars to the Broadway subway line in
Manhattan, instead of being carried
through TO their destination without
change Of cars"
No Down Town Link Built
A second instance Of Inconvenience
to the public through congestion at
transfer points and the necessity Of
changing cars is cited in connection
whit the proposed subway under Mas
sau and Broad streets to connect the b..
R.T. terminal under the Municipal build
ing with the Whitehall Street station at
South Ferry. This is one of the two
portions of the contract on which tho
city ia charged with complete non-pcr-
Torrance. 1t is alleged that no CON
tracts for this line have been placed
by tho municipal auth critics and that
in consequence passengers coming in
over the Williams sburg and Manhattan
bridges cannot be carried through the
Wall street section to a junction with
the Montague Street tunnel In this
connection it is further alleged that
the non-compl plction OF the Nassau
Street line deprivcs the operating com,
pony of the full use of the De Kalb
Avenue station in Brooklyn.
The second case of complete non
performance charged in the papers
filed yesterday covers tho contract By
which the city was to furnish trackagc
rights over the Corona and Astoria
lines in Queens to the New York Muni-
cipal Railway Corporation. Here again
1t is pointed out that passengers are
compelled by the delay to make an
unnecessary transfer at greensboro

HaggIing Ouer Dollars
Hats 18th St. Submay

The Transit Commission made public
yesterday its records concerning the
construction Of the Fourteenth Street
subway to Brooklyn showing that owing
to the delay of city authorities the sub
way section, from Sixth Avenue, Man
haitian, to Mescrole Street, brooklyn,
can have no trains in operation before
the summer of 1928, although it is more
than 90 per cent completed.
This subterrancan section Of the line,
constituting four and a quarter miles
Of It's total length Of seven and a half
miles and serving the most congrstcd
Of the districts it passes through, is
being held up, according to the records
of the commission, by the failure of the
city authorities to approve contracts
for the laying of rails, tics and the
completion of similar final constructor
work.
The contracts arc pending before the
Board of Estimate and AppOrti tionmcnt
and have been before that body for
periods Of from seven to eleven months.
The total cost Of the materials ncccs
sary is only about 5000 900, and the
commission hurried the contracts be
fore the board as soon as it became
apparent that tho subway portion Of
the route could be ready for operation
long before the elevated extension,
Mayor Hylan, ignoring tho assertion
by Governor Miller that the city was
losing $4,000 a day interest on thc
money invested in this subway that
was idle by reason of the Board Of Es-
timatc's delay, explained last night at
mass mactinC in Public School II,
briggs Avenue, Brooklyn. in the sec
tion to be served by the new subway,
that the contracts had been sent back
to the Transit Commission to effect
savings of a few thousand dollars.
"Tho present delay with respect to
chiefly to the Transit Commission he
said. "A great many of the contracts
have been returned by the BOARD Of
Estimate to the commits ion because Of
excessive prices. Some OF these re-
turned contracts were rcadvertised by

The prices IN some OF these contracts
that were not rcadvertisod averaged as
high as 35 per cent above market
price. It is the duty Of the BOARD Of
Estimate and AppOrtioNmcnt to sec

performed our duty in that respect
and insist that the State Transit Com
mission do its duty also.

UP IN ARMS IN
PARIS ON TIPS
FOR SERVANTS
French Women Angry at
Habit of DOmestics'
Grating.

PARIS. May SIS the Paris house
hold to be reduced 20 the level of the
hotel restaurant by the necessity of tip
ping servant girls 10 per cen tOf the
value Of all the food one eats7 This
is the angry demand from housewives
of the French capital. The new custom
Of giving the servant 10 per cent bonus
on the value of all the food she buys
at market is rapidly spreading, and
now not infrequently the maids make
this q condition of employment.
The 10 per cent tip to your own ser
want is the result Of the firmly estab
lished system Of petty graft which in
many sections of the city has been or
ganized between cooks and shopkeepers.
When the maids go TO market they carry
with them a little book. in which the
butcher, the grocer or vegetable man
write down the amounts with which the
employer is charged. At the end Of
the month the bill is settled.
In order to get the maids to do all
the buying at their stores instead of
across the street the shOpkeepers offer
the girls a commission on everything
bought. This commission. of course,
comes out Of the pocket of the employer.
Frequently the employer is grossly over
charged, and the shop and the servant
split the money.
In order to stop this abuse employers
began to offer the cooks or maids a COM
mission If they would solemnly promise
not 10 conspire with the shopkeepers to
rob them. The idea appealed strongly
20 the servants. and now the 10 per cent
commission Is frequently the only con-
dition under which cooks will take en-
Payment. Of course. the commission is
in addition to the regular standing
wages

RADIO JAZZ
HALTS SERMON
BARRIERS Musical Ear Causes
Trouble in Church.

NEILLSvILLE, Wis. May S--Floyd
Hanson, the barber with the famous
radio ear, went to church the other
evening with his fiancee, wearing his lat
est invention, radio hat, which he says
amplifes his natural facility OF receiving
radio messages.
The pastor was in the midst of his ser
mon when strains of the jnzzest Of jazz
music became distinctly audible in the
church, drowning out the voice of the
preacher. Confusion reigned and all eyes
instinctively turned to Hanson, much to
the embarrassment of bis fancee. Han
son struggled mysterlously with his
hat" 1t took him several minutes to
shut off the machinery. Then the music
stopped.
Hanson claims that with his hat he can
always hear some kind of a concert.
Many times when walking to and from
work he steps lively to the tune of some
stirring march, whistling the tune with
his radio as he goes. When his girl
is with him, he has even danced to the
music.
