Coney's Fallen Angels
Don Wraps for Easier

1t was rather chilly at Coney Island
yesterday, and most Of the crowd of
about 100000 which visited the resort
wore wraps, Even the three female
figures in the "Fallcn Angel" group IN
front Of the Love Nest, Stratton's Walk
and the Bowery, had on more clothes
than the preceding Sunday, when the
angelic simplicity Of their attire had
brought hot bushes to the checks of In
spector Sackctt and Captain Hughes.
The two modest policemen couldn t
work up a blush between them ycster-
day as they strollcd past the Love Nest.
The fallen angel and her friends hadn't
put on their summer furs yet, but they
had sprouted flowers in some places and
clothes in others. They had the aspect
of angels who had fallen through the
the flower shop Of 9 department store,
and were quite presentable, Inspector
Sackett and Captain Hughes decided,
Virtually all the amusement places ex-
cept Luna were open yesterday. 1t is
the earliest season Coney has had for
years, and may forecast an earlier open
ing date in the future, as yesterdays
crowd stayed we'll into the evening in
spite of the chill in the air.
Bathcrs were not numerous. Automo-
blcs were, however. Trains and cars
bound for the resort were crowded, but
the transit lines handled the rush with
out difficulty About fifty extra patrol
men were assigned to the Coney Island
police station for the day

500 LOW-Rent
Home Blocks to
Go Up at Once
10000 Apartments Under
Way This Fall, Inter
myer Says, as Boom In
spired by Law Spreads
Some $7-a.Room Projects
Bronx and Queens First to
Benefit by Plans Of Risk
Companies and Syntlicaics

Before the summer has passed there
Will not be less than five hundred low
rent apartment buildings under con-
I'structon by insurance companies or by
groups who will obtain their financial
support from these companies, Samuel
untermyer, chief counsel Of the Lock
wood committee, said yesterday. All
will be erected under the act which
Mr.. Untermyer proposed for the quick
relief Of the housing shortage, and
which became a law Friday, permitting
insurance corporations to invest up to
10 per cent of their assets in home
construction for the next two years.
Mr.. Untermyer said that not only
had other insurance companies than
the Metropolitan Life expressed their
construction field for this class of
housing, which is limited to a rental
of 50 room by the law, but financial
men who have become interested will
follow the lead of the group mentioned
on Saturday by Haley Fiske, president
of the Metropolitan Life, which has
opened negotiations for q $1,000 900
loan to erect more units of the type
of the fifty for which the Metropolitan
Life itself has ordered plans. He was
greatly pleased, Mr.. Untcrmyer added,
with the way these projects had begun
to move Immediately the bill was
signed.
"The signs of the first boom having
created stimulus in the construction
OF low-rent apartments, expect there
will be five hundred of that class Of
building begun before the summer is
over" Mr.. untermyer said. From
present indications there ought to be
r,o% lorr I, ,ol,
provide new and comfortable accommo-
datons for 10000 families.
"All of the buildings will be of about
the same size, containing thirty-two
apartments TO the structure. There will
be some variations from the first unit
of fifty for which the Metropolitan Life
is now providing, AS there are three
different plans in view.
There will be many more of these
apartments constructed in Queens and
others in the Bronx. We do not con-
template construction work in the
other boroughs just now. Other com
panics than the Metropolitan will
finance these projects, and | expect
more private groups also to help carry
on the good work.
Il believe there will be probably
$50,000000 or 100000 900 worth of this
sort of work under way before autumn.
| think the average rents will be about
ST and S8 a room, although the limit
in the law is 50"
Mr.. Untcnnyer said it was too soon
to announce definitely the names Of the
other companies,
Mr.. Fiskc said that there would be
a detailed announcement within a few
days on the entire scheme which his
company now has under way, when all
the prelimnaries have been definitely
concluded for the erection Of the fifty
tours story buildings in Astoria.

SAT per cent higher than in July, 1914.
Living costs dropped about . per cent
between February / and the middle Of
March and are 24.4 per cent lower than
in July 1920. when they reached their
peak. slight decrease in rents for
the country as Il whole is to be noted
Coal prices, which arc still 81 per cent
above pre-war level, are relatively
higher than any other major item in
the family budget.
Downward wage revision continues,
with reductions in almost all lines
of industry. The monthly analyses Of
wage reductions issued by the con-
ference board show that wage decreases
are not predominant in any one indus
try and that most Of the reductions
continue to take place in unionized es-
tablishments. These reductions be-
tween January 15 and February IS,
1922, showed a spread of from S per
cent $50 per cent below the previous
level. Wide variations in wage rates
IN the same industry in various parts
of the country and a widening differ
ence between wages paid for skilled
and unskllled labor are a notable
feature of the wage situation. In
spite Of the general objection of trade
unions against wage reductions, many
new wage agreements negotiated dur
ing the past two months provide for
lower wage scales.
disputes between employers and en-
Ployee8 are confined in the main to
dlsagreements over wages and changes
in the schedule of hours. Little
change has taken place within the
last two months in average working
hours. Employers in many cases have
tried to make their wage schedules
50 as to secure readjustment in
hours IN lieu Of reductions in wages.
Employees have generally indicated a
Willingness to arbitrate wage questions.
but INSIST on a continuance Of previous
schedule of hours.
I'm general, while there is but slight
Improvement in business throughout
the country, the sentiment with re-
spect to better business conditions is
becoming more hopeful and is finding
wide expression"

Agent Reveals identity
Before Making Seizure

Prohibition enforcement agents were
busy throughout the city yesterday,
the second Sunday since Ralph f. Day,
State Prohibition Enforcement Di-
rector, ordered that weekend activities
Of hootleggers be checked. Special
squads operating from the enforcement
headquarters have been assigned to
work on Saturdays and Sundays.
Twenty-six raids were conducted
Most Of them were on the lower East
Side. Izzy Einstein who conducted
several of them, attributes his success
to the fact that the happy thought
came to him to enter a saloon dis
eulsed as prohibition agent
With Izzy went Moe Smith, his in
separsble aid. When they announced
in the saloon of Abraham Rosenthal, al
238 East Fourth Street, their identity.
the wife Of the proprietor became hvs
terical..
Two physicians were required to
qulet her. lzzy and Moe seized several
hotties of alleged whisky, left sum

clans.
In the cafe of Paul Keller, at 1862
East Second Street, the agents re-
ported they found a quantity Of liouor
secreted in a phonograph case.
An investigation, it WAS said, may
be conducted into the burning of a
truck load Of beer cases in front of n
saloon at 185 Pavonia Street, Jersey
City. Saturday night, after the saloon
had been rajded by enforcement agents.
Some one in large crowd that threat t.
ened the agents while they were con-
Quoting the raid is said to have poured
oil over the loaded truck and set a
match to it.
Police Court Justice John Murray, Of
Newark said that he had been retained
by owners of the truck to bring suit
against the municipality of Jersey City.
"Thc police of Jersey City" he said,
were notified that trouble was en-
pectcd and they should have provided

Lire Easter Rabbits Chased
By Dogs Through the Subway
bunnes, Abandoned in Streets After Serving
Ancient Custom, Dodge Automobiles and
Finally Seek Refuge Underground

Scores OF uptown streets in New
YORK City were converted into rabbit
courses and the subways into burrows
when hundreds Of Easter bunnies, pur-
chased by celebrants of the season in
pursuance of ancient custom, were
turned loose later to shift for them
selves III verdureless communities
after apartment housewives found their
retention embarrassing
Stores in nearly every quarter of
New York stocked up with live rabbits
for the Easter trade, and in a majority
of instances they sold out their stocks
before closing Saturday night. Friday
the price for baby rabbit, Just old
enough to nibble for itself, was S1.5o,
while full-grown bunnies sold for as
high rs $3.50. Saturday night the price
ranged from rs cents for baby rab-
bit to $3.50 for a full-grown one.
Thousands were handed over counters
in paper bags to flat residents, who
wanted them ''to amuse the children"
Landlords and agents, discovering the
influx, ordered the rabbits disposed of
forthwith, some threatening to cancel
leases unless the order was observed
Following the first instinct of their
kind, hundreds of frightened rabbits
dumped in traffic laden streets made
for the first available hole in the
ground, with the result that many sub
way stations sheltered from one to
half dozen rabbits, crouching in dark
corners and vanly trying to burrow
their way to further obscurity.

Ono big black and white buck loped
up Ninety sixth Street from the dlrec-
tion of Riverside Drive yesterday
afternoon when motor traffic was heav-
lest, one black ear draped over his left
eye and a white one cooked perpen-
dicularly rs he lodged automobiles
Suddenly two Airedale terriers, held in
leash by young woman who said she
was Caroline Davey, living at the Hotel
Marquette, caught sight Of the rabbit
and broke from her control. They pur-
sued the rabbit through teeming traf-
fic, yelping wildly and dashed through
a throng of passengers descending the
subway stairs at Seventy-second Street
and Broadway. The rabbit reached the
express platform. took to the tunnel
without hesitation and was followed by
both dogs into localities unknown.
The dogs are said to have emerged
crestfallen at Ninety-frst Street sta
tion half an hour later. They were
restored to Miss Davcy by subway
guards.
Mrs. Ernestino Johnson, secretary of
the New York Mission of Mercy, an
organization with headquarters in the
Knickerbocker Building, Forty second
Street and Broadway, said last night
she would communicate to-day with
officials of the Society for the Proven
ton of Cruelty to Animals with view
to possible prosecutions If evidence
can be secured against individuals who
abandoned live rabbits in city streets.
Failing this, Mrs. Johnson said, she
will use the power of her organization
to prevent repetition of rabbit sales in
future Easter seasons.

The survey reads in part as follows; :;
a slight increase in employment,
