Lawrence B. Coleman, vice presi dent of the New York and Queens Electrlo Light and Power an active director and'chalrman of the Highways and Bridges Committee, was unanimously elected president of the Queens Chamber of Com merce at its 20th annual business meeting, in the Crescent Building, Long Island City, lost night. E. S. MacDonald, vice president of the Bank of Manhattan was named treasurer.

A board of 14 directors, from which seven vic presidents, representing each of the five wards in Queens and two at large will be selected, was elected. Fred C. Lemmerman, the retir ing president, briefly reviewed the development and growth of the borough and the important part played in the upbuilding- of this section of the city by business mn and the Chamber of Commerce. Construction of two additional bridges linking Queens with Manhattan and the Bronx was urged by Borough President Harvey, the principal speaker, as a solution for future traffic problems of his borough. The Borough President said he had asked Commissioner Goldman of the Department of Plant and Structures to study possible sites for a bridge or tunnel between the Queensborough Bridge and the Tri-Borough Bridge, and that he would urge building of a bridge connecting Whltestone or College Point with the Bronx.

He asserted that although a new "second deck" win be opened on the Queensborough Bridge on June 26, that upper level will be inadequate to handle the traffic. "The making of provisions for' the accommodation of 'traffic In Queens is one of our greatest problems of today and of the future," Mr. Harvey continued. "Our concern is not only with the construction of great arterial and connecting highways, but with the building of bridges and tunnels connecting us with the other boroughs so as to provide means of ingress and egress for the ever increasing volume of motor vehicle traffic. "The rapidity with which traffic is increasing at present and our experience in the past, teaches us that the making of provisions for the accommodation of future traffic is a problem that confronts us now, although a new second, deck on the Queensborough Bridge will be placed in operation June 26, this will merely restore this span to its capacity of 1825.

Within six years or less, the Queensborough Bridge, despite the second deck, will be as congested as it is today. "The traffic situation in Manhat- rtiaiefr pi i vide means by which a large volume of our traffic bound for New England and Northern New Tork can avoid congestion. In order to anticipate the future traffic situation of the Queensborough Bridge, I have- requested Commissioner Goldman of the Department of Plant and Structures to have his departmental engineers make' studies of possible sites for another bridge or a vehicular tunnel connection between Manhattan and Queens at some point between the Queensborough Bridge and the trl-borough Bridge. "I believe that immediate steps should be taken toward the construction of both these projects. I have directed the engineer of the Planning Commission to study both propositions, particularly as they relate to Queens, and to co-operate in every way possible with the Department of Plant and Structures engineers in their surveys of probable sites." The borough head also gave a review of the progress being made in the construction Of other transit and highway projects.

(From a Btatt Correspondent Albany. April 10 Bills providing lor an additional county judge, two city court justices and two municipal court justices for Queens, went to Gov.

Roosevelt for his consideration. Ho is expected to sign the measures. TJie pusrago of the bills was the result of a bi-partisan agreement between the Democrat and Republican organizations of Queens. The place on the county bench is slated to go to a Democrat. The other new places are scheduled to be divided equally between Repub licans and Democrats.

A county Judge is elected for a term of 14 years at a salary of a year. A city court Justice for '10 years at a $17,500 salary, and a municipal court justice tor iu years at a $12,000 salary. Senator Joscuh D. Nunan. Demo.

erat, sponsored the bills, creating the additional municipal court ana i city court places, and Senator Prank B. Hendel, Democrat, introduced the measure adding the extra countv iudee. John T. The.ofel, Queens county Democratic leader, and Warren Ashmead. the county's Republican boss, were here to see tne legislation go through.

Many Lawyers Aspire To Places on Bench In addition to the county. Judge, two city court justices and two municipal court justices provided In legislation passed yesterday, three new supreme court justices are to be appointed from Queens. Consequently practically every member of the Queens Bar Asso ciation Is a potential candidate for one of the numerous posts. Foremost in the Democratic group mentioned for the Supreme I'otirt justiceships are: County Judge Frank F. Adel.

Special Sessions Justice Lawrence Gresser, District, Attorney James T. Halllnan, John Adikes. of Jamaica; William J. Morris. of Far Rock-iiway former Assistant District Attorney Charles W.

Froessel. Magistrate Benjamin Marvin and former V. 8. Commissioner Elmer E. Stud-ley.

Republican friends of John Hol- ley Clark, last year's candidate for Surrogate: Federal Judge Robert Inch, Municipal Court Justice Henry Mentzel, U. S. Commissioner Nicholas M. Pette. Edgar S.

Hazel-ton, former Deputy Attorney General 'William B. Groat and James J. chief of the late District Attorney Richard S. Neweombe's staff, are booming them for the posts. Adel May Be Elevated In event of County Judge Frank Adel's elevation to the Supreme Court bench, it is believed District Attorney James T.

Halllnan would be the choice of his party's leaders for the county bench. Inasmuch as two Democratic appointments to Supreme Court will be available under the provisions of the bill, It is believed, however, the district attorney will be promoted with the county judge. It is reported that former Chief Assistant District Attorney Charles Froessel, who. with Assistant District Attorney James J. Conroy, prosecuted most of the important cases before the Queens courts during the term of the late Richard S.

Newcombe, Queens district attorney, will be designated to succeed Mr. Halllnan if he is promoted to either the supreme or county court benches. The new county court judgeship, 1t is said, will be given to Magistrate Benjamin Marvin. At the same time Chief Assistant District Attorney Charles P. Sullivan has a host of friends among the leaders and the rank and file of the Democratic forces in Queens, who, it is said, will insist that he receive recognition either with an appointment to the bench or promotion to the district attorneyship.

Some G.O.F. Possibilities In the Republican camp no person is more talked of for the appointment to the Supreme Court than former Municipal Court Judge Edgar B. Hazeltoo. Federal Judge Robert A. Inch, too, stands high in the councils of the party leaders, and is sure to recieve serious consideration when appointments are discussed.

It was said today. John Holley Clark's experience in legal circles, and the fact that he was G. O. V. standard bearer in lust year's campaign in Queens, Is certain to assure him consideration when the parley of party leaders is called to discuss appointees, it was said in political circles today.

Bessie Far Rockaway Groups to Press for Fourth Section Despite Harvey Plea for Delay. Borough President Harvey's statement regarding the fourth section of the Rockaway boardwalk have not altered the determination of Rockavay groups to continue their fight John H. Morris, chairman of the boardwalk committee of the Chamber of Commerce the Rockaways and chairman of the board of directors of the Far Rockaway Board of Trade and Taxpayers' Association, announced yesterday the board would not be swayed from its original stand in favor of having the fourth section constructed between Beach 21st St. and Beach Second st, Far Rockaway. Mr.

Morris, who has carried -on the campaign to have the board walk constructed to Beach Second was convalescing from a recent illness in Florida when the Borough President took issue with the Far Rockaway civic group for advocating the extension. Mr. Harvey objected to the action at this time while litigation was pending on the awards granted to ocean-front owners for property already acquired by the city. Mr. Harvey said that, although he was not opposed to the boardwalk extension to Beach Second st, he believed it unwise to advocate the construction of the fourth section now.

Mr. Morris said yesterday it was the demand of the Far Rockaway property owners that the boardwalk be constructed to Beach Second st and that it was on their request that the Board of Trade and Chamber of Commerce were seeking completion of the project Mr. Morris said tne organizations would continue their efforts to have the promenade constructed immediately.

i A petition asking re-establish--ment of a police booth at 0th and Crescent Long Island City, Is to bo circulated among shop own- ers and business men, William Professor Strayer said the world, tdday. is in the midst of a greater economic struggle than tne one which preceded the World War. after opening his address. Whither Education." His topic, he asserted, entailed two major considerations: First. "Where is society at large headed, and second, where are the boys and girls mak- ing up the coming generation of mat same society iienueu.

In the United States, today, more than 65 per cent, of the boys and girls between the ages of 14 and 16 were high school students," the professor explained. "In 1908 the great majority of young school people abandoned schooling in the sixth grade. "While it is true there has been tremendous progress along these lines, the traditional 'little red schoolhouse" system of learning which served the past generation admirably well will neither serve the coming generation nor carry us over in tho fast changing social and economic conditions prevailing. Teach la Greater Terms "Educators must get for boys and girls a wider view of the world at large, ''must teach them to think in terms" of the gTeat social and economio forces which brought about past conditions, rather than a traditional resume of the actual history. "In that way educators can develop generation that will not engage In the same follies which wc and our forefathers gathered.

"One of the big objects confronting educators is to determine why-an economio condition Obtains in which 6,000,000 men, willing and ready for work, can be deprived of employment literally, I should say. starving in the midst of plenty. "There are still thinking people who hold we must labor. six days to make a living, and earn the recreation afforded by the seventh day of the same 'week. Must Meet Conditions "Our job, therefore, is to educate for the changing, conditions.

Regardless of traditional educational standards, and all this talk of supplementary subjects in your curricula, nothing Is supplemental which la required to educate boys and girls for successful careers. "Tho very welfare of humanity is at stake In the kind of education we provide for our boys and girls. The little people must be fitted and adjusted Into the scheme of our modern social and Industrial life; that's all that matters. "Educate for a happy and productive life, and teach your students to know what is beautiful, and what Is good, and you will be doing what society at large expects of you and Is entitled to. "Frankly, the.

situation confronting educators is so serious that we can no longer deal in separateness or cherish traditions or ideals. Straight thinking that's the punch; all together for co-operation in the general improvement of civilization." R. 8. Jewett. of the Mount Vernon Board of Education, and president of the Associated SchQtH Boards, presided at the evening ses sion which was attended by more than a1 hundred educators representing school boards throughout the metropolitan area.

Dinner was served to the delegates during a concert bv the Freeport H. 8. or-chi''ra with Peter Fry conducting. The afternoon session In the kindergarten o( the Archer grade school was devoted to prln clpally routine matters and a general discussion on the proposal plan which would equalize school taxes In Nassau County.

Weeks, of the Williston School Board; George T.

Rollins, of the Malverne Board, and Dr. Frank Quackenbush, of the North point Board, agreed that school tax equalization could not be adapted to this county. President Smith, of the Local School Board, said that as far as Freeport was concerned, taxpayers were willing to pay the bill for educating Freeport children, but quite unwilling to bear the burden for the rest of the 60 school dis tricts of Nassau.

Hanlon, In charge of the metropolitan district of the Conservation Commission. Inspector Hanlon said that al though the 'season had. only opened last Saturday, the-reports from sections of the island where the trout are generally most abun dant indicated that a poor season would be experienced In this sport. Mr. Hanlon- explained that the lack of rain during the winter has reduced the volume of many streams and ponds with the.

re suit that the fish had chosen to remain in the same waters instead of following tho course of streams. Apparently satisfied with the food supply, they have, failed to move to places where they might be taken. Inspector Hanlon said the lest trout fishing was being had in streams on lands which sporting clubs had posted, although there were also a number of places where the general public also might participate in the sport. The Conservation Commission does not contemplate much difficulty in enforcing regulations relative to taking trout, Mr. Han- ion added.
