ARK CASINO 10
 BE PULLED DOWN
nous Refreshment House in New York Or
 dered to Quit

New York, Feb. 25.--tUP) Tine Central Park Casino, where for many years park visitors have been able, in a sense, to get Q nip ok refreshment for siS or S2o between visits to the fnerry-go-round and the zoo, is going. reluctantly, out of business. It is going out reluctantly because 1t has done 8 e3,OD6, l0b business in Q five-year period while paying the city e42,500 rent. But at is certainly going out, because Park Commissioner Robert Moses decided that 1t had wandered far afield from its ordained mission to "atford convenient opportunity for persons visiting the park to obtain light rers treatments" After the Casino has disrnantled 9l50000 worth of fix- lures and vacated, Moses is going to rage the white clapboard build- ing and build Q childrens play- ground on the site.
 Court Baked Plans
 A CVdAb OAdCA yVoVCAa0yD StsAAheAA8 plans of the Casino to reorganizS under Section 77B of the bank~ ruptcy act, clinched Moses victory in a fight that has ragged long. The Casino had Q 10.year lease on its park site, granted under the aegis of former Mayor Jimmy Walker i1 1e2o and had intended to maintain 1t. The Casino was believed unique among American public park cone sessions. It operated as one of the city's most exclusive night clubs. the minimum cost of an evenings dining and dancing being around $i5 a cover. It's location in the arboreal cooiness of the park, fiid- way between fifth avenue and Gem tral Park vests expensive apart ments, won 1t booming business in spite of its prices. "Five-cef1t popcorn will please Q lot more peoA pie" Moses said. That's what we'll have on the spot next year"

DEMANDS MORE
ANTI-POLLUTION
AID BY GAMERS
State Official Outlines Ways
Firms Can Co.
Operate.

w. H. Frazier, state engineer in
charge of pollution, today told In
diana Gamers that they must CO.
operate even more closely with his
department in its drive TO keep
streams clean.
Mr.. Frazier's talk, outlining the
methods for closer cooperation
between the canning industries and
the state Commerce and Indus
tries Department, brought the two
day session of the Indiana Gamers
Association in the Claypool to a
close.
The state now has effective laws
concerning the domestic and indus
trial waste disposal. The Public
Health and Conservation Depart
mentS formerly conducted such
activities, but the 1885 Stream
Pollution Act placed It's adj
ministration in the hands of the
Department of Commerce and In
dustries," he said.
ouBBcSsS RotdTy OCTceH
while the powers of the new act
are quite broad, it Is the desire of
the department to use that power
as sparingly as possible. 1t would
be obviously wrong to make in
creased demands on any munich
pality or industry that would
jeopardize its existence. We realize
that many of the methods of waste
disposal are too expensive for the
average factory. 1t is with the
idea of cooperation that we have
contacted the Indiana Gamers
Association"
A rotary type screen for the re-
moval Of heavy solids developed to
point where the price range is
within reach of the small factory
wcs suggested by Mr.. Frazier as the
partial solution to waste problem.
He said that until a more perfect
solution had been developed tenn
porary methods would have to be
used. These include ponding and
broad irrigation, he said.
An open forum on canning in
dustry problems, directed by DR..
William H. Harrison, Continental
Can Co., research director, followed
Mr.. Frazier's talk.
Yesterdays speakers included f.
r.. Lancashire, Continental Can
Co, and Elmer w. Stout, American
National Bank president.

Acting Governor R. Herrick and Chief Mu-
nicipal Physician James D. Knott will con.
fer with the Municipal Committee today
on the question of transfers in the budget
so as to provide means for maintenance
and subsistence in the institutions under
the Health Department.
This three -cornered conference will help
to expedite matters. DR.. Knott will inform
the Committee as to the new appropria-
ton required and the amount needed for
each item. The presence of the Acting Gov
ernor will save time as the Governor, ac-
cording to law must concur with the Mu-
nicipal Committee before any transfer in
the budget items can be made.
The only items in the budget from which
transfers can be made are salaries. Such
transfers should not constitute any dam
ger since it is expected that Congress vii
grant the amount necessary to carry on
the Government to the end of June. If
Governor Cramer would tell them in plain
English that people in Washington and
not people in the Virgin Islands are res
ponsible for the unprecedented situation
because they, in causing the reduction of
certain substantial municipal revenues had
failed to make provisions for the deficit
which was bound to arise they are likely
to make the money available without
unnecessary argument.
