Relief Committee Meets

Fire Marshal Brophy will continue
to-day the questioning of various per-
sons in an effort to establish definitely
the GAUGE of the fire in the tenement
house at 1878 Lexington Avenue early
Sunday morning, which resulted in the
death of fifteen persons and the in
jury of many others. Stanlous Krach,
janitor of the building, was questioned
at length yesterday.
He was examined as a result of the
belief By some Of the Investigators
on the second floor had caused the fire.
Krach denied that he had still. He
said that the twenty-one gallons Of
wilte found in his apal tment were
there for his own use. His son, George,
ten years old, made sworn statement
to the police that corn which had been
found in the Krach apartment had been
used by him to feed some pigeons.
A number of others were questioned
yesterday. Some of the Fire Deoart.
ment officials are still Of the belief
that the blaze was of incendiary
origin.
The funerals of eleven of the ff-
teen fire victims were he'd yesterday.
Services for the five m members of the
Silver family who lost their lives were
held from the funeral parlors of AL
pert Brothers, 119th Street and Lex
ington Avenue. The sidewalk outside
the establishment was jammed. Mrs.
Nathan Silver went in to view the
bodies of her husband and four chill
dren, became hysterical, and had to
be led outside. The burial of Silver
and his four children took place in
Washington Cemetery.
Services for six other victims were
held in the First American
Church, at SO Rivington Street. These
six were the five children of Abraham
Sugarman and Abraham Matilsky, hus-
band Of Anna Sugarman. The burial
of the six was in Mount Hebron Gene
terry, Flushing. The funeral procession
were witnessed by great crowds.
The relief committee, headed by
Henry Frank, of 1859 Lexington Ave
nue., met last night at 1900 Lexington
Avenue to discuss methods for carry
ing on their work. Judge Francis X.

Hylan Transit Plan
Vehicle for Double
Fares, Experts Say
McAneny Summarizes Re-
port Showing Effect al
Forty-second Street and
Canal Street Transfers

Dismemberment Of existing transit
systems, with the substitution Of
double fare for the tive-cent fare on
suit from the adoption of Mayor Hy-
lan's transit plan. according to an anal
ysis which Transit Commission ex-
perts have made. Several important
transfer points now in use by thou
sands Of travellers would have TO go,
among them the shuttle service con-
Meeting the East Side and the West
Side subways at Forty-second Street
and the Canal Street transfer point,
by which those who use the Brooklyn
elevated lines change to northbound
B. Z. r. subway trains.
Transit Commissioner McAneny sum-
married the views of the commissions
experts in a statement issued yester-
day. while obstructing any workable
plan Of immediate new subway build
ing" he said, Mayor Hylan has made
it plain that If he were to have his way
the existing dual system would be torn
apart and double fares charged-some
of the lines to be operated b the city
for one five-cent fare and some by the
companies for other five-cent fares. It
appears from the Mayors plan that the
Interborough subway lines on the West
Side of Manhattan would be separated
from those on the East Side, so that all
passengers transferring between the
lines by way of the Forty-second Street
shuttle would be required to pay an
additional fare.
while passengers coming into Man
haitian from the Borough of Queens
could transfer north or south on
Broadway or Seventh Avenue by cross
ing to Times Square, they would, if
they changed north or south on Lex
ington Avenue at Grand Central Sta
tion. have to pay an extra fare.
Passengers coming in over the
present Brooklyn elevated lines to
down town Manhattan through the
Centre Street loop would still be car
ried for single fare, but the Brook
lyn elevated passengers bound north
from Canal Street would have to pay
second fve-cent fare.
Chiefly the Hylan scheme Is a
double fare plan, to be brought about
through the same sort Of disintegra-
tion that has broken the surface sys-
TENS into fragments, and that. in the
single year ending June 80, 1921, i'm
posed the double fare upon 1856 5,00O,0 600

away few times the young Fox be-
can to be doubtful. He began to sus-
pect that there were some things that
even Mother Fox couldn't do. But
even in his disappointment he was
not SO hopeless as he had been. His
mother had found him and would
come to him whenever she could. He
knew that. He knew that she would
never give up so long as there was
the least chance Of getting him free.
He knew that her love was stronger
than he- fear of Bowser the Hound
and all other dangers. SO the young
Fox clung fast to hope.
Not until Farmer Browns Boy came
out of the house In the morning did
Bowser end his watch. At first
Farmer Browns Boy didn't under
stand. He suspected that Bowser
had been trying to get at that young
Fox and thus had disobeyed him. But
when e saw that the collar of that
young Fox was gnawed half way
through he guessed what had hap
pened in the. night. He remembered
ha'lng heard Bowserys voice several
times, Carefully and patiently he
looked until he found in some soft
earth footprint. He knew it at ones
AootPIinL OF full-grown
Fox and he guessed that the mother
OF his prisoner had been there In the
night and that it was she who had
gnawed that collar. So instead Of
scoiding Bowser. as he had intended
60 90, ne patted him. Bowser waeped
ms tan fappily. He felt fully paid
for his long watch.

Bedtime Stories
Mrs. Reddy Is Forced to Give Up
By Thornton W. Burgess
No day that passes but makes clear
That loue Is greater far thar, fear.
old Mother Nature,

There is nothing s+urid about Bow
ser the Hound. Goodness, no! If he
could talk to you he would tell you
that no one could chase Foxes so
long as he has and be stupid. He may
be fooled for while by clever trick,
but sooner or later he discovers what
the trick is, and never again is fooled
by it.
So it was that after Mrs. Reddy had
led him ava few times from the
box where her young son was a pris-
oner, only to mix lhe trail up and
hurry back, he became suspicious.
THAT old Fox wants to get me away
from here" said Bowser as he sat
watching the box in which the young
Fox was hiding. 81 don't know what
she is trying to do, but it is quite
clear that she wants me out Of the
way. My master told me not to touch
that oung Fox, so it must be tnat he
wants TO keep 1t, That old Fox must
ns his mother. and probably she is
trying to get him away. guess the
thlng Tor nae to do is to keep guard.
So long as I am here that Young Foy
won't come out, and il he doesn't
come out ne can't get away"
So Bowser spent the rest of that
night keeping watch. Part of the time
ne sat In front of that box and part
oil the time he walked around it. And
nothing that Mrs. Reddy could do
could get him away from there. She
was very bold. She barked almost in
his face. She trotted back and forth
past him so near tLst several times
bowser could not resist the tempta-
ton to rush at her. But each time
she did this he refused to follow her.
Hewas satisfied to drive her away.
So at last Mrs. Reddy was forced
TO give up. She had gnawed half
through the collar around the neck of
the young Fox. But Bowser won dn,t
give her chance to finish the iob.
Reddy Fox Joined her and did his
best TO tempt Bowser awav. But
bowser's sense of duty was stronger
than his desire for the chase. and All
the rest OF that night he kept guard
You see, while he didn't at al under
stand matters, he felt that his mas
ter wanted that young Fox kept a
prisoner and he knew that Mrs. Reddy
vas trying her best to get that young
Fox free.
As for the young Fox, he was terri
bly, disappointed. When his mother
had first appeared he had felt sure
that all would be well. Not a shadow
Of doubt had entered his little mind.
Mother Fox was wise in all the wavs
OF the Great World and she would
get him out Of this dreadful troub ..

Ponzi Income $780, 900
A Day, Secretary Swears

BOSTON, Oct. 2s.--The phenomenal
rate at which the business Of Charles
Pcnzi, former dealer in international
postal. reply coupons, grew and ex-
tended in the early months of 1920 was
described In the Superior Court to-
day by Miss Lucy Nell, who was sec
retary to the spectacular financier at
the time. Ponzi, now serving a Ave-
year Federal sentence at the Plymouth
jail, is being tried on state indictments
charging larceny and conspiracy.
In the first week of May, 1920. Ponzi
took in $4,000 day at his Office in
School Street, the witness said. Dur
ing the last week of the month the
daily receipts had increased to $780,
600, she told the court. Miss Nell told
of six checks made payable to Ponzi,
each for 100000.
The witness said she had seen inter

GERMANY NEEDING
FOO DIOR PEOPLE

Paris, Nov. 14.-Germany must
find some way of getting 100000
100000 marks worth of grain to
feed her people durin gthe next
year, the reparations commission
learned in its investigation in Ber-
lin.
AS this amount is about double
the present total Of paper money
in circulation in Germany, purchase
Of the grain is deemed impossible,
except through speedy financial
rehabilitation of the country or
food credits from abroad. 1t seems
to be generally taken for granted
that both the credits and the food
would have to come from America.
The 800,O00,000 marks repre-
scnts Germany's import require
ments for the next twelve months
Of 100000 tons of grain, the mini
mum amount thought necessary to
prevent starvation. Any attempt to
buy this cereal in q foreign market
would, in the opinion of experts,
cause complete collapse of the
mark, with serious reaction in
the exchange fthe other Euro
pcan countries.
