NEW APPEAL FILED
ON HE'LL GATE BRIDGE
New York Official Says Structure
Should Be Open to All
Rail Traffic.
az Ale Associated PRESS.

BY the Associated Press.
Continuation of the attempt to get
the Hell Gate Bridge route through
New York harbor completely open to
all railroad traffic was made by the
authority of the Port of New York
yesterday in the filing of additional
appeal before the Interstate Com
merce Commission. The bridge route,
controlled by the Pennsylvania and
New Haven lines, should be open, it
is contended. to shippers desiring
transportation by all-rail from and to
Long Island points.
Only the inability of the Pennsyl-
vania and New York Central systems
to agree upon the amount of compen-
sation for use of the bridge now pre-
vents its full utilization, the docu-
ments filed declared, adding that as
the structure only exists by permits
sion of the Government the Commerce
Commission should declare the routt
open and fix the compensation rate.
The contentious presented will be
argued before the commission May
16. A tentative report made by com
mission examiners has recommended
that the bridge route should be open
ed at least for eastbound traffic.

NAVY IN NEW CONTRACT
FOR AIRPLANE PATENTS
Agreement for 1O-Year Period
With British Concern Calls for
$S75,OOO in Royalties.

The Navy Department yesterday
entered into a new contract with the
Handley Page Co., a British airplane
concern, under which the Navy will
pay royalties, expected to reach a
total of $4,000 over a ten-year
period. for use of patents held by the
company. At the expiration of that
time, the Government is to have un-
limited use of the patents
The case, which has been in con-
troversy for some time, grew out of d
claim for $125,000 filed by the Gov
eminent against the British concern
after the latter's patents had been de-
clared invalid in this country. The
Government had previously paid that
amount in royalties.
Under the new agreement. this SUM-
is to be deducted from future royalty
payments. The case was settled out
of court by the Department of Justice
after suit had been filed against the
company in the courts of Great
Britain.

lawyer. His banking experience and
relations with foreign governments
have given him a background of
knowledge about foreign affairs
which will be helpful to him in his
new work.
Mr.. Coolidge has been trying to get
a big man to go to Mexico. He found
that when he sent Henry l.. Stimson,
former Secretary of War, to Mica
ragua he got quick results. SO he
decided to send Mr.. Morrow to Mex
leo, giving him a recess appointment
as Ambassador, and by the time he is
established in Mexico City and has
gotten his work well along the Senate
will confirm Mr.. Morrow as matter
of course.
1t is the beginning of a new era in
the relations of the United States, Il

ECHO IN WALL STREET.
Financial District Discusses Morrow
Appointment as Envoy.

NEW YORK, September II R).-
Wall Street today expressed little sur
prise at the appointment of Dwight
w. Morrow as Ambassador to Mexico.
1t had been rumored for some time
that he planned to retire from bank
ing in favor of public life. Interest.
however, was high. Tor Mr.. Morrow,
as a member of j. p. Morgan & Co,
is one of the conspicuous figures in
the financial district.
Although Mr.. Morrow declined to
comment on President Coolidge's an
nouncement, advices from Washington
indicated that he planned to retire
shortly from his firm in order to ac-
cept the Mexican post. This supplied
an interesting topic for conversation
in financial circles, inasmuch as it
would involve the giving up of a posi-
ton reputed to be worth $1,000, 900
year for the nominal salary paid to
American diplomats.
