TENEMENT CLEANUP
STARTED IN NEW YORK

Former Architects Clerk, Later
Construction Supervisor, Directs
Attempt at Improved Conditions.
NEW YORK, December IA (N.AN.A.).
Thousands of bosses in New York City
are so swamped with work and increas-
ing detail it is impossible for them to
be efficient in the exact sense. BUSH
ness, like life in general, grows more
complicated before this Is realized.
Many are the employers, managers, Su-
perintendents and so on who never find
time to take stock and face this issue
and decide that their jobs are too big
for them and too big for any man in
quantity of detail.
Jobs are continually outgrowing IA
cilities. Take the tenement house de-
partment. Following q report of more
than $4,000 violations Of the tenement
house law and multiple dwelling law in
the booming borough of Queens, VIII
liam r. Deegan, commissioner, an
nounces the opening of a Queens office
and an attempt at cleanup.
With q myriad alterations in build
ings taking place in all boroughs the
task of enforcing the tenement house
law is enormous. Hundreds of men and
women 60 about inspecting Railways
and getting the baby carriages from
under the stairs and ordering the fire
escapes cleared. Space is scarce and
dwellerS are cramped. Maj. Deegan,
directing this job, was once an archi-
tect's clerk and later supervised much
Skyscraper construction. In the war he
was under Maj. Gen. GoethalS, and
afterward he was the American Le-
gion'S State commander, busy improv-
ing conditions in hospitals for veterans.

MOVIES AND MOVIE PEOPLE
BY MOLLIE MERRICK.

Here are some of Maude's own de-
ScrtptionS OF movie making IS years
ago. In them he reveals a priceless
sense of humor and tremendous fair
for carrying on under unusual and try
ing conditions:
"One paints ones face a sort of yell
low and darkenS ones eyes," he wrote
home in describing his first appearance
before the camera. The studio is an
out-of-doors sort of place, with dress
ing rooms all along one side and diff
ferent bits of rooms built all over a
vast stage. Sometimes have to be up
in the mountains, sometimes on the sea
and sometimes in it! On a. horse, on a
pig, on the desert, in the forest-good-
ness knows where!"
After about five days movieing
Maude writes home: II really find the
work almost too much for me. 1 often
have to change my makeup three times
day and my life is one continual long
series OF mad rusheS In motor car trips
t. mountain places and much exposure
to the great heat and flies and ants
and all sorts of beaStly insectS!"
The most Stupendous scene of the lot
Tor Maude was shipwreck, which he
describes thus:
There we all were on a platform ex-
tremely cleverly constructed to look like
the deck of big ship. Five or six men
stood at the four corners and tilted it
this way and that, while men overhead
sprayed heavy rain on us from above,
and others Showered buckets of water all
over us; meanwhile bombs of lightning
powder kept exploding, everybody shout
ed and cursed and the devil or death or
something horrible came out of the

HOLLYWOOD, December 14.-Cyril
Maude is one of the notableS sought
after by Hollywood for the 1881 season.
No less person than Jack Warner has
made the English actor most fiatter-
ing offer.
It is not the first time the village has
sought the art of Cyril Maude for
camera purposes. Few people remem-
Der the fact that in 1914 Maude made
q celluloid version of Peer Gynt" here
in cameraland under most trying cir
cumstances. 1t was a pioneering day
in movies. Pictures were made with
might and main out in the raw sum
shine. Kleig lights we're as yet unheard
of. And the studio lights of the pres
ent day not even an ambitious dream.
An eficient gentle named APPEL had
an idea to put great names into movie
moments. And the money offered the
English actor was such that he couldn't
refuse. He made what became feature
of seven reels in IA days. They were
doubtless the most hectic times of
Maude's entire career. And he has en-
bodied a most amusing account Of them
in his memoirs printed last year and
in letters to his wife and friends writ
ten during that time.
An old friend of his, Herbert Stand
ing, who. together with his sons. Guy
and Wyndham Standing, made gelatine
history in those days, was in the Peer
Gynt" cast. The rest were Supernumer-
aries, or people who were recruited from
the cheaper ranks of players in order to
even up the budget, swollen to unrea-
sonable proportions by the services Of q
famous actor.

Macdonald, chairman of the Highway
Education Board. Three hundred of
the Leading highway authorities of the
world will be invited by the board to
participate In three tours covering the
eastern, southeastern and central west
ern sections Of the United States.
The purpose of the tours is to show
the visiting delegates the various types
OF highways and methods o. construc-
tlon employed by the Federal Govern
ment and the States in giving this
country perhaps the most extensive sys-
tenn of good roads the world has ever
known. Each of the tours will cover
about l,50O miles by highway.

The first of the tours will proceed in
an easterly direction, for the purpose
OF acquainting delegates with road types
and highway construction and highway

the eastern tour will go by rail, accord
ing to present plans, to New York City
and from there by motor bus through
Connecticut to New Haven, through
Massachusetts, to Springfield and BoS-
ton, to Schenectady, Syracuse. Roches-
ter and Buffalo, N. Y, and down the
lake coast to Erie, Pa, and Cleveland,
Akron and Toledo, Ohio, and from there
to Detroit
The second tour will penetrate the
southeastern section, leaving Washing
ton simultaneously with the departure
of those who are taking the first tour.
and probably will proceed through Vir-
ginia, North Carolina, South Carolina,
Georgia and Florida, to inspect high
way construction and types under semi
tropical conditions. Norman C. Damon,
who will be in charge of the southern
tour, left Washington today to consult
with highway officials as to the best
route for those taking the southern tour
a..d as to where the delegates will find
under construction at that time of the
year the various types of road building
that it Is desired to see.
Central Northwest to Be Covered.
The third tour will cover the Central
and Northwestern States, leaving
Washington by train, according to pres
ent tentative plans, for st Paul and
Minneapolis, and proceed from there
by motor bus to cover the territory in
the vicinity of Duluth, Mimi; IDes
Moines, Waterloo and Davenport, Iowa !;
St. Louis. Mo-; Springfield and Joliet,
ILL.,; South Bend, Ind; Toledo, Ohio,
and Detroit.
The three tours will converge at De-
troit about IA days after they leave

East and West tours will make a sur
yey of their prospective routes at a
later date.

then as now. OF them Maude SAYS:

Condemns Name Designating

BERLIN, December 14.-"Pan-Eu.
rope" as planned by its advocates, Il
o misnomer.
So says DR.. Arthur Dix, lecturer al
the Berlin seminary for political SCI
ences. An alliance of the. European
powers must of necessity also include
vast stretches of Africa by virtue OF
the French and Belgian possessions
there, from which a French and Bel
gian hegemony is but step, he asserts
DR.. Dix points out how the Pan
European idea is being propagated by
the truly international prophet Count
-Kalergi and the full-blood-
ed Frenchman Aristide BRAND" from
entirely different motives.
With or without the exclusion of Eng
land or Russia, or both, he says, the
trademark Pan Europe" is misleading.
African Adoption Indispensable.
For practical reasons such an African
addition becomes indispensable to an
economic union Of the Western and
Central European countries If 1t is to
meet even half way such great world
competitors as the United States, Great
Britain and Russia, all with natural re-
sources essential to the industrial coun-
tries of Western and Central Europe.
To f1ll such requirements the Euro
pean countries must look to the tropical
and Subtropical areas of Africa, he be-
lieves.
In fact, in every halfway serious
map of future pan-Europe, says DR..
Dix, are incorporated the African COL
onies of France, Belgium and Portugal,
and, in some cases, also French 1ndo-
China and the Dutch East Indies.
But even with the logical elimination
of the Dutch East Indies, in view Of
likely opposition from England and
Japan, the African colonies of France
and Belgium could supply pan-Europe
with such valuable raw products as
gold, copper, iron, zinc, lead, tin, phos-
pilates, cotton, hemp, oil fruits, rubber,
coffee, cocoa, tropical fruits, vegetables,
timber, cork, spices, tanbark, tobacco,
wine and sugar.
Factors in Sales Market.
These African areas are also becom-
ing factors as a sales market for Euro
pean goods, both by reason of the rapid
opening up of new lines OF communi-
cation and because Of the large sums
invested in these new channels Of COM
merce.
This aspect Of a pan-Europe estab-
liShed on an African foundation, says
DR.. Dix, furnishes conclusive evidence
Of the mighty economic predominance
France, with the assistance of Belgium,
would enjoy.
And this economic supremacy, DR..
Dix finds, would be augmented by the
French military political advantages ac-
cruing from the control of hundreds of
thousands of natives who could quickly
be thrown across the Mediterranean to
Europe, or with the consummation Of
the projected railway across the Sahara
Desert, even be drawn from the most
remote African districts.
