Acting Chief John Beckman, of the Lynbrook Police Department, said, summonses, calling for appearance in Police Court before JudgeJNeu onJVgdnesday, had been handeef to but a majority were for passing the red light.

He said no attention had been paid to a driver who sped past the yel low light before it changed to red.

MA MAKES REPORT Tokio Masses Its Troops to Meet Superior Forces of Oncoming Enemy. i i Nanking, Sunday, Nov.

15. Five hundred Japanese have been killed and four Japanese airplanes shot down in the fighting along the Nonni River, Gen. Ma Cha Shai), Chinese commander, in formed the national govern ment in a telegram today. By FREDERICK KUII (Copyright, lJSJ by United Press) Harbin, Manchuria, Nov. 14.

Japanese forces on the Nonni River concentrated tonight for a decisive battle for possession of the key city of Tsitsihar. Infantry and cavalry, reinforced by artillerj, armored cars and airplanes, massed on the northern front along the river against the Chinese position near Anganchi, held by the troops of General Ma Chan-Shan. BothChinese and Japanese officials here expected a battle to- morrow, the Japanese plan being to drive- Mas troops out of the Anganchi-Tsitsihar area before the League Council meets in Paris on Monday. Japanese Outnumbered The Japanese, after establishment of a new autonomous govern- ment of Heilungkiang Province at Tsitsihar, would beable to withdraw their troops, thus partially meeting the League's demands for evacuation. The move would leave the Japanese In control of every provincial capital of Manchuria.

Gen. Ma had forces estimated at about 20,000, while the Japanese had from 2,000 to 3,000 troops. The Japanese were much better equipped and had the advantage of expert strategists. General Ma's forces had been menaced by a double threat, the Japanese on the south and the forces of the Chinese general, Chang Hai-Peng, who is friendly to Japan, moving in on him from the northeast. An unconfirmed rumor said tonight, however, that Chang had killed his two Japanese advisers and fled to Taonan, abandoning his allegiance with the Japanese.

Foreign consuls here were skeptical of the report. The Amity st. police station, Amity and Emmett built fifty years ago as a memorial to the toughest cop In the City of Brooklyn, was completely ruined by fire last night. Heavy smoke hampered the firemen In battling the blaze, believed to have started on the ground floor from a lighted cigarette dropped by, a vagrant who spent the night in the abandoned structure. The rapid way in which the flames spread to the two other floors and throughout the entire Interior fully confirmed the judgment of tfye city authorities who condemned the building 16 years ago as a fire trap.

Thanks to their vigilance nobody was trapped In the fire, which broke out about 6 P. M. Since 1916, the Aikity st. station house was abandoned and the precinct divided among the Butler Hamilton ave. and Poplar st.

station houses, the building has been vacant. Plans to demolish it at last, lt'ls believed, will be hastened as a result of the fire. Tho toughest cop memorialized in the erection of the station house was Patrolman Frank Stone, who fell In battle against the Smoky Hollow gang. For many years the activities of gangs In the waterfront section near the present site of the station house had stirred the indignation of citizens, and insistent demands were made for better police pro-taotion-T-The-worstAf -the gangs operating there was the Smoky Hollow gang, led by the Munklfer brothers. Patrolman Stone had his post at Amity and Emmett sts.

It was there, one night, that he was set upon by about a dozen of the gangsters. With his trusty nightstick Stone laid about him so lustily that he soon had the gangsters scattering in all directions. One of the Munkifers, however, getting behind the policeman, threw a cobblestone which struck him on the head and crushed his skull. After this Incident the authorities of the old city of Brooklyn could no longer hold out against the public demand for a station house. It was built on the site of Patrolman Stones heroic battle and as a memorial to him.

Policemen with the biggest appetite for fighting were sent to man it, and within a year the section was freed from gangs, for some time at least. OPENS NEW LANE Violet Carries the Pigskin to Eight-Yard Line, But Lacks Needed Punch. HARD, CLEAN FOOTBALL Tanguay Tries Field Goal, But Fails, and Maroon. Holds 'From Then On. By JIMMY WOOD Hie Violet of N.

Y. U. and the Maroon of Fordham battled through four periods of bitterly fought football at Yankee, Stadium yesterday afternoon and the descending dusk of the crisp autumnal evening found these great metropolitan rivals locked in scoreless tie at the final whistle. It iai hard, clean, but far from a spectacular game that drew more than 80,000 rabid pigskin partisans into the Yahkee baseball I orchard, a record-breaking atten- dance worthy of a more brilliant display, of gridiron fireworks. Final Period Furious In fact, all the excitement and suspense was crowded into the final period, vhen the Violet and Maroon tightened their defenses against a desperate last-minute scoring move which never came.

There was one high-tension touch in the third Quarter, when N. Y. after a march deep into Ford-ham. territory, had four downs in which to negotiate eight yards of valuable real estate between Its forward wall and a touchdown. Here a double pass failed, a stab through guard gained two yards md an attempted sweep around 'ordhams left end was spilled for 3-yard loss.

With the ball on the Maroon 9-rard mark, Jim Tanguay, the Vio-ets placement specialist, dropped jack, fairly well In front of the foal posts. Mark Temple flat-ened to hold the ball, while tho 'L Y. U. side of the stadium held ts collective breath and offered up Rent supplication to the gods of he gridiron. But Tanguays kick went end ver end, low and wide of the right the stanchions, and the N.

Y. U. irayer went unanswered. Inci-lentally the last Violet scoring hance went a-glimmering in the ast-spreading gloom. Just before the march that vound up with Tanguays futile lek, N.

Y. U. staged another pa-ade, with Nat Grossman the andmasters seat They clicked ff two first downs in two plays, Temple bucking through for five ards and Grossman slicing the line ind cutting through the Maroon econdarles for a 16-yard jaunt, the ongest ball-carrying journey In the ame. Fordham Never Menacing Fordham really never threatened, got Inside the Violet 10-yard nark. The Improved N.

Y. U. line, 1th Captain Concannon playing a rreat in-every-play role, checked he Ram rushes. However, if Fordham's aeronauts efforts had not been discounted offside penalties inflicted by the ver-anxlousness of its line, the laroon might have worked its way nto a more dangerous position everal times. But a peek at the statistics gives n.

accurate Idea of the kind of ame played by Father Knlcker-ocker's lads, the first tie in the istory of their meetings. It also of the Mr. and and Fee snatchers, the name given by President James J. Sexton, of the Tax Board, to lawyers who persuade property owners to file dishonest applications for tax assessment, are roundly condemned by the commissioner in a statement issued yesterday. Commissioner Sexton said he had taken up the matter with District Attorney Geoghan, particularly In regard to two cases, and threatens criminal prosecution, if the practise continues.

Any citizen who feels he Is entitled to a reduction may get It without cost, Commissioner Sexton said. If there is merit In his appeal. Appeals must tomorrows mall at the latest, and hearings, will be held next month and in Books will be closed Feb. 1, and assessment 'rolls will be presented to the Board of Aldermen March 3. The commissioner said he was forced to threaten criminal prosecution because of the number of appeals for tax reduction that have been made.

A number of lawyers, he said, are taking advantage of hard times to obtain tax reductions for persons who dont understand the law. The practise Is to get 60 per cent, of the tax reduction effected. "Ambulance chasers are honorable in comparison to these fee snatchers, President Sexton said. If a citizen appeal has merit he can get a reduction without paying anybody. The number of appeals for reductions has increased this year to 70,000, as against the 43,000 for last year.

Most of the appeals come from Brooklyn, Commissioner Sexton said. Albany, Nov. Attorney Alexander G.

Kahn, the letting of county printing without public bidding and the placing of county advertising in one of the newspapers with hich Mr. Macy is connected. In his letter the Governor, who had criticized Blue for alleged failure to properly present the charges to the Grand Jury, wrote: I regret that I cannot comply with your request. In order to have the Attorney General prosecute In matters of this kind the ordinary and legal procedure is to supersede ihe District Attorney for the purpose. The point that I made In my last letter to you was that I thought that In presenting the evidence to the Grand Jury you could have gone more fully into the facts, leaving no stone unturned to get to the bottom of the matter.

I am confident that you can do this. District Attorney Blue announced that he will follow his announced procedure and present the case to the Graud Jury Nov. 30. "I had hoped, he said "that he (tho Governor) would direct the Attorney General to participate, but since he has not, I will present the evidence without his Bull Liner Arlyn May Be Forfeited on Charge of Rum Smuggling.
