Larceny by Trick
Held Not Covered
BY Insurance Policy
Court Refuses Plea for Re-
covery of Amount Lost
by a Bogus Phone Cali
From British Consulate

In deciding against c. r. Richard &
Co. in suit to recover from the Great
Eastern Casualty Company on policy
protecting against loss by robbery,
Supreme Court Justice McAvoy held in
decision made public yesterday that
larceny by trick" which was the
method used to defraud the Richard
firm. was not covered by he policy.
Some one, whose identity never has
been established, called up the Richard
Office and asked to have $500 sent to
the British Consulate to be exchanged
for American dollars. The voice on the
wire promised check for the amount
A messenger was sent to a room in the
Whitehall Building, where the con-
sulate is. When the messenger reached
the room a man met him in the door
way and told him it was he who had
called up the office. He took the money
and told the messenger he would pay
partly by cash and the rest by check,
instead all by check rs promised. The
man got the money, disappeared, and
has not since been seen. Nor was the
money ever recovered
c.. B. Richard & Co. sued to recover
$2.150 from the Great Eastcrn Casualty
Company, under their policy in that
company. Justice McAvoy heard the
case. In his decision the justice calls
attention to the terms of the policy
under which the plaintiffs sought to
recover. They were: "(A) by violence
New-York tribune., 1922-03-12

inflicted upon custodian IN tho actual
care and custody Of ,1e property at the
time, or (B) by putting custodian in
fear of violence, or Co by an overt
felonious act committed In the pres
ence of a custodian and Of which he is
actually cognizant Mt the time.
Referring to the method adopted by
the man who stole the money, Justice
McAvoy said "This scheme was q
larceny by trick and device and has
none Of tho ancient or modern ele-
mcnts essential to the concept of rob
berry"
AS to tho question whe thcr the loss
Of the money by the insured, by the
method employed, was covered by the
terms of the policy, tho court said {:
"The proof does not arise to the possi-
bility of finding that 1t compromised
any of these attributes. 1t was overt
because it was not stealthy or furtivc.
1t was felonious because intent to de-
prive another of property was manifest
in the result, but the act lacked force,
cognition Of it's true nature and apprc-
hension Of it's malice at the time of
occurrence. 1t is enough that it was
not forciblc taking to defeat the
claim of a fortiori; it must fail when
nothing Of other elemental requirement
is found in it,

Projecting and illuminated signs on
Fifth Avenue arc doomed, according to
decision handed down by Justice
Davis in the Supreme Court. The de-
cision viii result in the removal of all
such signs on the fronts of buildings
on Fifth Avenue from Washington
Square to 10th Street; Madison Ave
nue, from Thirty-fourth to Seventy
second Streets; Thirty fourth Street,
fron Fourth to Seventh Avenues, and
F1fty-seventh Street, from Lexington
Avenue TO Broadway.
The sign ordinance, which was OBJ
tsined by the Fifth Avenue Association
IN 1916 and which has been declared
valid and constitutional by Justice
Davis will pave the way for the extern
sion Of the ordinance TO other streets,
where the property owners and bust
ness men have requested such action
from the Board of Aldermen.
Under the terms Of the original or
dinance Fifth Avenue alone was af-
fected On December 23, 1920, at the
request of the Fifth Avenue Associa-
ton, the ordinance was extended by the
Roard Of Aldermen to Madison Avenue,
Thirty-fourth Street and Fifty seventh
Street. 1t forbids the erection of illu-
minated signs or signs projecting more
than one foot beyond the building line.
A provision Was contained in this ordi-
nance revoking the licenses for all illu-
minated signs, irrespective of the date
Of erection, after December %, 1921.
5n addition. an amendment was made
TO tins ordinance on December 16, 1921
exempting from the provisions of the
ordinance. illuminated signs existing
upon theaters or other plaoes of amuse-
ment on December IS, 1921"
Injunctions Are Obtained
On December %, 1921, the Commits
siorer of Public Works, under the
city ordinance, directed all maintain
ers of signs in the territory covered
by the sign ordinance to remore their
signs Virtually all maintainers of signs
on Fifth Avenue and Fifty-seventh
Street complied. However, five injunc-
tions were obtained by interest on Thir-
ty-fourth Street to prevent the removal

Holds Board Is Judge

"The Board of Aldermen arc thus the
judges as to what ordinances they will
pass to carry out and preserve the in
terests of the municipality, and unless
an ordinance passed by them is wholly
arbitrary and unreasonable it should be
upheld. The necessity and advisability
of the ordinance are for the Legislative
power to determine. The presumption
is IN favor of the ordinance.
''The first contention of the plaintiffs
that the ordinances are unconstitution-
al because they discriminate against
people located on the specified street
and avenues in favor of all other To-
calites in the city cannot be upheld
II is disposed of by the failure of the
plaintiffs to allege any facts in the
to show that the ordinances we're arbi
trary or unreasonable and ~unlawfully
discriminatory against all other locali
ties in the city
He concludes by saying that none of
the complaints submitted state sufti
cient cause of grievance and explains
his dismissal of these complaints and
uphods the necessity for this ordi-
nance in the following words:
Their real grievance is that the
streets named have been set apart from
all other streets of the city as areas
within which there shall be no illu
minated signs. There is no doubt that
advertising by illuminated signs is
very beneficial to business. At the
same time the multiplication of those
outstanding signs in this very busy
section of the city easily can become
an eyesore, nuisance and an improper
use of the air space over the thorough
fares. We may assume that the Board
of Aldermen before passing this re
strictive ordinance gave tI,e consid-
Grafton to the interests of those there
tofore maintaining illuminated signs
on Thirtyfourth Street and that the
ordinance was adopted as the result
of its deliberate judgment that the in
terest, comfort and convenience of the
public demanded it :"
New-York tribune., 1922-03-12

other streets in the city, bat prohibits
erection OF them on tnc sticets inen-
toned, and also because it grants an
exclusive privilege to persons engaged
in the theatrical business along the
streets and avenues of New York"
Martin II. Murphy, assistant corpora
tion counsel, was designated by the city
to prevent it and he argued in favor
of the validity of this sign ordinance
After lengthy argument Justice Davis
handed down decision which sustains
the entire ordinance as not alone being
valid. but as being beneficial to the
dignity and Importance of the Fifth
Avenue district.
In granting the motion for dismissal
of the complaint Justice Davis said;
"Under the Greater New York Charter

constitution and laws of the state, has
authority to adopt ordinances rcgulat-
ing the use and maintenance of signs
