BY Lne Associated FreSS.
ALBANY, N. Y, April 1.-THE
world was a riot of color yesterday
for Israel Weinstock, whose sight has
just been restored by surgery after
four years of blindness.
Everything Is beautiful" Wein-
stock said Il never realized there was
SO much color in the world. I think
I notice 1t more than other people
with good eyes.
Red roofs, green grass, yellow
houses-even dirty houses are so good
to look at. And the new automo-
blles-"
Chiefly, Weinstock explained, he
was amazed at the new cars
They look nice, but they seem so
empty. I can't explain. The lines
look European, somehow"
Weinstock, an interior decorator
has not driven car since the night
on Broadway, New York, in 1881.
when a veil closed over his eyes and
he drove into steel pillar under the
elevated railroad. His car was
smashed.
One of his first acts after the oper-
alton that removed the veil was to
visit a motion picture. He thought
the movies, too, had changes.

now as never before the Red Cross
must live up to its title Of THE
Greatest Mother on Earth" He said
this is being dsne and complmented
the workers upon their devotion to
duty.
Turmoil Baffiing.
I'VE understand something Of the
why and wherefore of this mental
turmoil, but we fail to comprehend
how it comes that this Nation Of ours,
of all the nations on earth should be
forced to weigh everything in new
scales, to be forced to attempt un-
dreamed Of experiments until we
wonder whether we shall save any
thing from the apparent inescapable
wreckage of the times" he said.

SURVEY TO STUDY
NEW POLICE PLANS
Hazen Reveals Two Pro.
pOSaIS Based on Crime
Probe by House.
Two important changes in the sys-

Two important changes in the sys-
tenn of police administration are under
consideration. Commissioner Melvin C.
Hazen revealed today as he prepared
to place in motion a survey by the
committee of District officials of the
complaints against the police as out
lined before the Special Crime Com
mittee of the House
One is a suggestion for the con-
solidation of the Crime Prevention
Bureau with. the police vice squad,
both of which are units of the Detec-
tive Bureau.
The other is to place Lieut. George
Little, head Of the vice squad in di-
rect control over all raids of any
character made by the Police Depart
ment, even in cases where the force
of police precinct is employed in
stead of the vice squad members
themselves.
Hazen indicated he believed the two
suggestions worthy of serious con-
SAoci dIlOl, Uut dS ycI HAS IlOt Cou-
mltted himself on them.
The committee named by the Com
misSioners to study and submit recon-
mendations on the data compiled by
the House Crime Committee will be in
formed by Hazen it has full authority
to call witnesses to take testimony on
any phase of its study of the police
situation that it deems advisable
Hazen said this matter would be
left to the discretion Of the commit
tee, which is headed by Corporation
Counsel E. Barrett Prettyman, and
includes Cap. Howard F. Clark, AS
sistant Engineer Commissioner, and
George w. Offutt, chairman of the
Alcoholic Beverage Control Board.
Prettyman is of the opinion the
committee cannot issue subpoenas and
compel witnesses to testify, but if Of
fcials or others answer the call volun-
tarily the committee could go into a
of new phases.
Since the committee is not expected
to hold its first meeting until Monday.
it has not been decided yet just what
will be the scope of its probe.

S100,000,000. Critics of the measure
insist that eventually the cost to the
Government will rise far higher. The
bill limits to SIS per person the Fed
eral Governments contribution for old
age pensions. The States must match
dollar for dollar the Federal contribu-
tions for old age pensions. The
Townsendites and others who support
higher old age pensions see red when
the old age pension provisions of the
pending bill are mentioned.
Many Amendments on List.
There are a number of amendments
to the old-age pension plan which
will be offered, some of them in the
nature of substitutes. In addition to
the Townsend and Lundeen plans
Mrs. Greenway of Arizona has a plan
OF her own. She would finance it
through a Q per cent tax on all finan-
cial transactions She would limit the
Federal contribution to SIS month,
which would have to be matched by
q SIS contribution by the State. This
would make maximum pension of
$50, which would go to all persons so
years of age or over.
The social security bill is likely to
be before the House for two weeks
of stormy debate and consideration,
and it may be there longer. Under
the rule finally voted for its con-
sideration, 20 hours of general debate
are permitted.
Supporters Of more liberal pension
and unemployment insurance plans,
like the Townsend and Eundeen bills,
If they join forces with those who
believe the administration bill un-
satisfactory, can make it rather diff
ficult for the administration forces.
There are representatives of So
called poorer" States who will make
demands that the entire cost of old
age pensions and aid to children come
out Of the Federal Treasury rather
than from funds of the State and
Federal Government. Another point
of attack on the administrator bill
is found in the fact that 1t provides
for pay roll taxes on business for
financing old age and unemployment
insurance. and it is contended. that
industry cannot stand such taxes now.
The administration bill, as reported
to the House. provides pensions for
persons who have reached the age of
IS years in States which have enacted
the necessary supporting legislation.
It provides also for old age benefits to
be built up from contributions made
by employees and employers, with the
program of benefits beginning in 1912.
Unemployment insurance is to be pro-
Vided in those States which have en-
acted supporting legislation.
Funds are to be provided, too, for
maternal and child welfare, for the
care of crippled children and voca-
tional rehabilitation, when the States
match the Federal funds. The bill
also provides Federal funds for the
development Of public health services.

Claherty Due Tomorrow.
The secretary probably will confer
tomorrow with Coleman Claherty,
American Federation Of Labor organ
izer in Akron, after he talks with Will
liam Green, Federation president.
The rubber workers belonging to the
Federation have threatened to walk
out in protest against the refusal of
the Goodrich and Firestone companies
to allow Labor Board elections to de-
termine whether the Federation or So
called company unions represent a
majority of their employees.
The issue of A. F. of L. Union VS..
so-called company union" is involved.
The three companies have employe
conference plans through which a
disputed number of their employees
bargain with the managements.
The A. F. of L. has disputed num-
Der of members in the three plants,
their local unions being affiliated in a
rubber workers council.
Elections Held Up.
The National Labor Relations Board
has ruled that the organization chosen
by majority in plant shall speak
for all. The board ordered elections
at the Goodrich and Firestone plants
The Goodyear petition is still pending
But the Goodrich and Firestone
companies held up the elections by
asking the Circuit Court of Appeals
at Cincinnati to review the board:
orders.
The rubber companies maintain that
a substantial majority of their en-
ployees are not members of the fed
Grafton union, and don't want to join
Nor are the employees conference
plans illegal, they maintain. Elec-
tions, their counsel told the Labor
Board, would upset peaceful relations
Today's conference was the out
growth of President RooSevelt's direc-
tion to Miss Perkins to step in to pre-
vent the threatened strike.

Theatrical World-
Social Order Protest
Theme of New Movie
The Theatrical World
BY WALTER d. HICKMAN

THE screen, like the stage, is at
l. tempting to register various
movements which may affect the
future Of this country.
Such plays as Waiting for Lefty"
and Tobacco Road, claimed the
attention of those who wanted TO
hear protests against the existing
order.
The screen in the past has not
been an agency for this protest, but
the new crop of movies has at least
one instance that attempts 10 show
both sides of the question.
The other afternoon, Joe Cantor,
head of the United Artists EX-
change, which also releases Reli-
ance Pictures in this district, invited
representatives of the American Le-
gion and others to see Red Salute"
Red Salute" is the story of
beautiful girl, the daughter of
high army officer, who lost her head
over a young student who believed
in the overthrow of the present
form of government in this country.
The girl, played by Barbara Stan
Wyck, was very nearly won by the
young revolutionary until she runs
across Uncle Sam, chap who
works for 80 bucks a month in the
Army of this country.
Before Uncle Sam finishes his
course of instruction with her she
is his wife and one Of the greatest
patriots of all time.
There is lot of romantic back
ground to this story as we'll as some
mighty fine hokum comedy con-
tributed by Cliff Edwards, known as
Ukelele Ike.
