Dr. J. Francis Ward, president of tho South Brooklyn Board of Trade, in an interview last night, said he planned to write to Mayor Walker urging him to investigate the possibility of supplying piers for ocean liners in Bay PJdge rather than Manhattan. This decision, Dr. Ward said, came as a result of the refusal of the U.

S. War Department to allow the extension of the pierhead line in the Hudson River as requested by the city. The building of new piers of great length in the Hudson River by digging channels inland, as proposed now. Dr. Ward declared, would be infinitely more costly than development of the Bay Ridge area.

"I agree with President Cranford of the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce." said Dr. Ward, "that the Mayor ought to take Bteps to have made a thorough Investigation of the waterfront possibilities of the five boroughs before settling upon any definite plan. I shall write a letter urging such action. "I have no doubt that the facts will show the Bay Ridge waterfront offers the best solution of the pier shortage problem now facing the city. "It has long been admitted that the Bay Ridge waterfront should be developed to provide better distribution of traffic in the port.

The North German Lloyd Line has already put in use a pier at the foot of 5Sth st. "The proposed Crosstown hwy. which the city is planning to build from Fourth ave. parallel to the East River to Queens would give quick access to the East River bridges. Buses could be used to tranpport passengers to and from the ships.

"Later on a new direct connection between lower Manhattan and Brooklyn, possibly a vehicular tunnel, would give even better transportation and serve to relieve traffic congestion. "The Bay Ridge shore could accommodate piers of any needed length and the channel depth, I believe, would be ample." JOHNTRA RENTS HOUSE J. Albert Johntra. with offices at 81 Broadway, Flushing, has rented the dwelling at 33-18 171st Flushing, for William Feltman, of Flushing, to W. Wiggin.

Borough President Byrne transmit ted his departmental budget for next year to the Board of Estimate yes terday, with request for $6,430,389. This Is a decrease from the total last ywar of $30,025, the figure of 1929 totaling $6,460,414. In his request, the Borough President points out that there will be no Increase in the number of employes and that the policy of making only deserving Increases In salary will be made, in order to effect every pos sible saving.

The important items In the request, and stated as the reason for the decrease, are as follows: Increase In time of existing force due to calendar year $24. SST Ttsnsff-r of existing forces 83. 7M Change In dl.trlhutimi 2,000 Estimated insrease In price of supplies and materials 2,87 Maintenance of existing public buildings 20.000 Motorization replacements 31. 3T0 nenoation.

Borough President Byrne, in his communication to the Board, states: "Our plant and office organization, our street pavements, sewers and public buildings, and all of the other activities under our care, are in first class condition and operating efficiently.

It would be folly, of course, to try to show economy by unwise reductions in any direction. Such has not been my purpose in preparing this estimate. As time goes by, It is but natural that some increase must be expected, and the expenditures incident to the growing requirements of this office, but I am able to report that since coming to the office of the Borough President, I have kept my requests for appropriations well within the allowances for previous years made by the Board of Estimate."

The smartness of a shoe depends more upon its cut, fit and exquisite, workmanship than anything else. Various materials are combined In subtle and intricate ways, but there Is little or no orna mentation.

A feature of particular interest Is the use of matching bags and shoes, for evening as well daytime, car rying out the ensemble idea. Pumps promise to be smart for fall, especially the Colonial pump with high standing tongue for after. noon wear. The one strap models will continue their popularity and the oxfords, with two or three eye lets, are still good. Great Interest is taken in the high Cuban heel, which is more practical for walking the city streets than the narrow French heel.

The high built up all leather heel, recently introduced In America, has beoome an established fashion. The material for fall street shoes are kid, suede, reptile, lizard and patent leather used singly and in unusual combinations. Suede and kid is a favorite combination the kid used for the tip and quarter and the suede for the vamp. Suede and reptile are sometimes combined in the same way, especially in the oxford type of shoe. As tJ colors, black will always be important for the cold winter months, but brown also promises well for fall, especially a sort of reddish brown.

Navy Is in the lead and dark green and dark red will undoubtedly be worn with certain costumes, as both of these colors are forecast for the coming season. Beige la still good for wear with beige clothes and light summer things, but fall will see the darker tones come in. In all cases there are attractive bags to match the shoes. For summer sportswear tha standard shoe Is the one strap white buckskin, with brown (or black) calf trim, often made with an all leather heel. For fall, the Prince of Wales type and the oxford in all brown will be good.

Brown always looks wel with our prosont day sports clothes. Sandals for Evening. For evening wear, the sandal type ot slipper and the plain pump vie In popularity. An extremely high Fronch heel Is favored in both cases. Occasionally a buckle of rhlne-stone or colored crystal is noted, but even for evening the ornamentation Is ot the simplest sort.

As to materials, the dyeable fabrics take the lead, crones, satins, moires and brocades. These often have silver or gold kid trimming and are dyed to match the gown, or to contrast with white or very pale shades. Evening bags are made to match. Multicolored brocsdes are smart. One Paris bot(lr makes sandals and bags to match in very rare Vrslan and Indian brocades or In Claineee embroidery.
