$570,761 aid
Transit Board
City Must Furnish Cash for
Expenses of Commission.
Including Unpaid Wages,
Appellate Division Rules
Johnson Plans New FIGHT
Senator Says Traction Law
Contest Will Be Taken to
Tribunal of Last Resort

The Transit Commission gained an
other victory over the city administra-
ton yesterday. Following the decision
OF the Court of Appeals on Tuesday,
upholding the constitutionality of the
law under which the commission was
created, the Appellate Division issued
an order directing the Board of Est-
mate and Apportionment to appropriate
S570,761 for the commission.
Of this sum 100000 is on account
for the commissions 1922 expenses,
and the remainder for unpaid expenses
of last year, including salaries of en-
ployees, which have been held up for
more than q month by the refusal of
the Board of Estimate to honor the
commissions requisitions.
Action on the petition Of the com
mission, filed last week, had been taken
under advisement by the Appellate
Division. pending the decision of the
Court of Appeals. The order was
signed by Presiding Justice John Proc
tor Clarke, and it is expected the
Board of Estimate will feel obliged to
approve the acquisitions at its meeting
tomorrow.
Johnson and O'Brien Confer
In face Of this second defeat in two
days the city administration went
akcad yesterday with plans to carry it's
contest against the commission to the
United States Supreme Court. Senator
Hiram Johnson, special counsel of the
city in the litigation, made hurried d
trip from Washington and conferred
for three hours with Corporation Coun-
sci John p O'Brien as to the admins
tratons future line of attack.
At the conclusion of the conference
Senator Johnson issued a statement in
which he said the city would press its
contention until the court of last re-
sort had been reached. He did not
question the decision of the state court
but assailed the policy of the law.
Corporation Counsel O'Brien said
further conferences would be held be-
fore the city's next move was decided
upon. 1t was understood the adminis-
tration, realizing the improbability Of
obtaining a reversal of the Court OF
Appeals decision. as no Federal ques-
ton was involved. would reserve its
next attack until the commission form
ulated the contract under which it pro
poses to reorganize the traction lines
OF New York City.
The greater portion of Senator John
sons statement was an Interpretation
of the administration idea of home
rule. He urged that Getty authorities
civic bodies and organizations devoted
to municipal improvement attack this
monstrous proposition until q righteous
tatevide public opinion forces the
remedy"
The most important of the cty's
constitutional objections" said Sena-
tor Johnson, "arise from the taking of
the property of the city and the i'm
pairment of the obligation of its con-
tracts. These questions apparently arc
not referred to in the majority opinion

West Side Tennis Club Moves
To Cut Hours of Women's Plav

"is so obviously unfair as to cali for
no further comment"
The fees and dues paid by women
members are less than those paid by
men, but the women have asked to have
this inequality removed. The board
gave out q statement yesterday in
which it was said:
"The board of governors must make
rules and regulations for the benefit
of all the members of the club. The
board has controlled the time of play
ever since the days of women member
ship. When the club was located at
1l7th Street no women members could
play after o'clock in the afternoon on
weekdays and 2 o'clock on Saturdays
and holidays, and never to the exclu-
sion of men members, and this rule
was strictly enforced.
"When the club moved to 238th
Street this rule, while it existed, sell
dom had to be enforced. because of the
numerous courts. A necessity for such
a rule is made imperative because of
the closing of the Ninety-third Street
grounds, which means an increased play
at Forest Hills Of approximately 1875
members.
1--WE believe no board Of governors
would in any way make rules or regu-
lations that would deprive women Of
playing. but at present the women have
even g-eatcv freedom than the men

FACTORIES TO FEEL
 EFFECTS OF STRIKE
Coal Situation and R. R. Problems
 Will Hold Up Shipping
MUST USE AUTOS AND WATER
Traffic Managers Are Optimistic That Shut-Downs Will Be Ayerted De- spite Drastic Ruling By Interstate Commerce Commission.

AS a result of the almost total ces- sation of operations in the coal min ing districts, coupled with the results of numerous walkouts in various branches of the railroad service, To- cal manufacturers may be required to depend almost entirely upon auto- mobile and water for incoming raw products and outgoing shipments of finished goods. Several of the local traffic men who have made an ex- haustive study of the strikes, their present results and probable effect upon the shipping of the next six months are unanimous in their yer dict that local industry will be hard hit; yet, with large fleets of automo- bile trucks for short hauls. and with no labor difficulties to interfer with shipping by water, they are optimis- tic that shut downs win in no in stances be necessary
 I. C. C. Takes Hand
 The rail strikes have resulted in a general Generalization of the service on several of the leading roads. Equipment has in many instances been allowed to run down, it is said, and with a continuance of the strike further loss of rolling stock is inev- table, it is pointed out. On top Of this, the Interstate Commerce com mission, in its latest bulletin, has is- sued orders tending to handle the coal distribution problem, which will remove from the service of local fac tories, almost all rail freight service.
 Effective at once. all available freight cars are ordered at the dis posal of the coal mine operators, with instructions for use so long as may be found necessary. Several group ngs of those to be served are also the need.
 Classifications Made.
 Special orders from the l. C. C. are to be handled first; next comes the railroads to whom coal must be car ried so that shipping may be contin- ued; public utilities are included in the third groups as are hospitals. public buildings municipalities, etc; factories manufacturing foodstuffs for consumption by humans and by ami mals and those turning out medicines are in another preferred class: ship ping of coal and raw products to factories are in a remote classifca- ton while the problem of carrying finished products is one of the last considered.
 The roads on their own Initiative have also notified shippers of tenn porary embareoes. specifying classes of goods to be handled first In all cases coal is given the preference while the uses to which local indus try could place railroad freight serv- ice is last considered.
