Borough President Lynch
Comes to TottenvilIe Fol-
lowing Complaint
ONLY ONE BOAT is USED
Matter May Be Taken Up with
Mayor HyIan and
City Boards

Borough President John A. Lyncn,

swer to complaint of the ferry SER
vice between Tottenville and this
city on Saturday afternoon when a
number of automobiles waited in
line on the Tottenville side of the
sound to come to this city, came to
Tottenville and saw conditions as
they were. There was only one boat
running on Saturday because of the
weather conditions. but when the af-
ternoon came on there was consid-
cradle travel, making it impossible
for one boat to carry away the long
line of automobiles that stretched
out up the street leading to the ferry.
This caused the complaint to Bor-
ough President Lynch, who with
Sheriff Harry Rudolph. for Rich
mond, came down in the official cal
of the borough president.
Borough President Lynch is said
to have threatened to bring the
complaint before Mayor Hylan and
also to take the matter up with the
Staten Island Rapid Transit officials
for the one boat service during the
busy time of the week when a large
number go away over the week end
down the New Jersey coast. Mr..
Lynch was in Manhattan today at a
meeting of the committee of the
whole of the board of estimate and
could not be reached to learn what
he had done in the matter for better
service over the ferry.
For the past few weeks two boats
have been operated every Friday,
Saturday and Sundays. but because
of the rain storm Saturday the
ferryboat Tottenville was not put in
to service. The Tottenville was on
yesterday morning. but for the small
traffic the boat was taken off and
the Charles w. Galloway was operat-
ed alone taking care of the travel.

think you'd mind staying at home
By the way, my shirts need some
buttons sewed on, and those
brown socks ought to be darned."
II can't see why you have to
buy so many hats, Lucy. This
IL the second one this summer.
And you paid SIS for it! never
paid more than S. for a hat in
my life. What IL that horse did
win yesterday--it's the first one
that's come through for me In a
month"
II don't see why can't have
another poker party this week:
this is as much my home as it Ia
yours. Besides, you have your
WOuICH AAASlLAS III 10 play man
jong. 1t wasn't my fault the last
time when Joe had too much to
drink and broke that antique
chair. You needn't have given
him such a look, either-he told
you he was sorry, didn't he?"
"I wish to heaven you'd leave
my shirts where / could find
them. Here it is $40 and the
dinner scheduled for 8. What in
the world do you do with them?
Give 'em to the iceman? Oh, yes.
here they are under my pajamas.
Well, couldn't see very well, the
lights poor in here"
"No, I won't come down and
talk to the Finnegans. You know
/ don't like them. Goodness

You can play three-handed pinoche
