DEMOCRATIC CLUB BOLTS FROM BYRNE TO SUPPORT BOND The campaign for the Boro Presidency of Brooklyn reached its highest point so far today with the bolt of the Thomas Jefferson Regular Democratic Club of the 2d A. from the standard of Boro President Byrne to the banner of former Representative Charles G. Bond, Republican nominee. The club claims a membership of 1,200 and 1s planning a rally for Bond tomorrow night at the clubhouse, 409 Blake County Clerk William E. Kelly, chairman of the Byrne Campaign Committee, today replied to the challenge of Meier Steinbrink, Bond's campaign chairman, to the Democratic candidate to define his stand on the subway and transit relief issues.

He stated that the The Eagle after being elected to" the Boro President, in an interview with office by the Aldermen, stated his position "clearly, conservatively and with a proper sense of responsibility." First Break in McCooey Ranks. The Jefferson Club's bolt from the Democratic nominee for Boro President was the first break in County Leader John H. McCooey's ranks this campaign, and may be laid to the Hylan-Walker primary fight last year, when many of the Jefferson members supported the present Mayor. The decision of the Jefferson Club to support the Republican nominee came after a meeting of the executive committee last night. Harry Izzicson, president of the club, and Jesse I.

secretary, notified Bond of the decision today with the following letter: "We desire to notify you that in your campaign for Boro President of Brooklyn you will have the united support of the Thomas Jefferson Regular Democratic Club.

"We also highly appreciate what you did in furthering the adoption of the 30-foot channel project for Jamaica Bay, We know, too, of the splendid work you did in bringing to a successful vote the resolution in Congress favoring the establishment in Palestine of a home for the Jewish people." Outlining Boro President Byrne's transit policy, Kelly's statement declared: "Mr. has pledged his fullest effort provide additional subways, with the least possible delay, and especially to press the much-needed crosstown tube.

He was born here, educated here, and has been connected with her business interests here all his life." David Germain, manager of the Byrne campaign, today announced the' organization of a committee of Brooklyn, physicians, headed by Dr. Frank D. Jennings, to work for the Democratic nominee. APPEALS FOR FAMILY Several months after he was injured in a street car accident, Mr. "Holt" died.

He left a wife and six children, the oldest 13 and the youngest not yet 2 years. In a brave but futile attempt to provide for her family, his wife secured employment as a cleaner in one of our public schools. While she was away at work, the older children looked after their younger brothers and sisters. Mra. "Holt's' earnings were far too little to feed seven months, to pay rent and to keep the rapidly growing children in clothes.

After doing her best but finding that It was not enough, she appealed to the Brooklyn Bureau of Charities for help through this crisis in their lives. The bureau found the children all undernourished, and an extensive health program must be carried out to build them up again. The mother herself requires medical attention, and must have a weekly allowance to supplement her Income In order to provide for her family. Already the bureau secured the financial assistance of relatives of this family, and the help of their church. But what they can spare not enough, and in order to obtain $250 to maintain the family, the bureau is asking for contributiona-large or small- which may be sent to its office at 69 Schermerhorn Brooklyn, marked "for 783 E.

Mr. Lomen, our correspendent, and Ingaluk, his Eskimo guide, are "getting warmer," as the boys and girls say when they play hide-andseek and get near the place a player is hidden. "Met Eskimos today who say they know Santa and where he say the message. It begins to look as though there is a Santa Claus, doesn't it? Wonder what sort of directions the Eskimos gave Ingaluk?

Now, today we have a story about what one mother told her little boy when he asked whether Santa Claus was real. The story is by Elwood Mansfleld Obrig. an old Brooklynite, who now lives at 73 Oakridge Summit, N.

J. It is called "The True Santa "There was a boyish hustle of feet upon the stairway and the door flew open, admitting Mrs. Conklin's son, Jimmy. cried little, 7- year-old Jimmy, 'the boys at school say there isn't any Santa Claus, bus It's your father. Is that 'Come sit upon mother's lap and she will explain it all to you.

Yes, dear, your Father is Santa Claus. Not your daddy, but your Father, God, to whom you say your prayer every night. It is God, or the Christ Love, who world makes to it shower possible for the such loving kindness everywhere. Think how wonderful and beautiful it is to know this truth, Jimmy boy, that the Christ Child's spirit returns to earth enters every home, however humble, on Christmas day, spreading Christ Child True Santa. 'But, mother, what about the Santa Claus on the post cards with the whiskers? 'Well, dear, that is St.

Nicholas, or Santa Claus. He is a symbol of the Christ Love which is the true Santa Claus. St. Nicholas was a man who lived long ago, about 150 A. D.

(which means 150 years after Christ was born), in Lycia, Asia Minor. He originated the custom of giving presents on Christmas Day to bring the Christ Child love to all. The name Santa Claus is the Dutch corruption for St. Nicholas. 'In Germany the name became Kris Kringle, meaning Christ Child.

So, dear, through the ages the Christ Child was and still is the true Santa Claus. "The jolly old man who represents St. Nicholas is merely a symbol, as Jack Frost is a symbol of cold.

Just so, jolly old bewhiskered Santa Claus of tradition is only a symbol of the ever-presenc Christ Love that brightens every home at Christmas time.

Do you understand now, Jimmy boy, that there really is a Santa 'Yes; but, mother, does the Christ Love bring my "'Yes, for without that love there would be no mother, isn't it wonderful to know that Christ comes to our home?

Sends Mars a Radio Message At Rate of 36 Cents a Word London, Oct.

28 -Due professional gravity was maintained by the officials of the Central Radio office here late last night when Dr. Mantleld Roninson handed in a message for Mars, some 42.600.000 miles distant and asked the rate. The message was prefixed with three M's, which Dr. Robinson said was the call sign for Mars. It was composed of two words, "opestinipitia secomba." The receiving clerk asked whatithe langunge was and Dr.

Robinson replied "no known language." The message was accepted by the clerk for transmission by Great Britain's most powerful radio station, Hilmorton. The sender was charged the "long distance ship rate," equivalent to 36 cents a word. The clerk informed Dr. Robinson that he could not guarantee delivery, but the doctor agreed to take the risk.

By JAMES L.

HOLTON. Rear Admiral Louis M. Josephthal, it was learned today, is greatly disturbed over the report that Eagle Boat 51, manned by the First Naval Battalion of Manhattan, lay at anchor in the Hudson River on the night of Oct. 6, last, deserted by its crew, and endangering Its own safety and navigation in the river. The State Naval Militia commandant, following a report of the incident in The Eagle last Saturday, hurriedly summoned a number of Naval Militia officers to his Manhattan office on Monday.

Wide Probe Seen. The inclination today in Naval Militia was to believe that then Admiral's action Monday predicates a tions in the New York Naval Militia widespread investigation a of condias well as possible disciplinary tion in the matter of the deserted boat in the Hudson River the night of Oct. 6. The Eagle Boat 26 lay at anchor a few hundred yards from the Eagle 51 and, it is believed, members of its crew knew of the abandonment of the latter Navy boat by the Manhattan crew. It is understood on reliable authority that Commandant Josephthal severely cross-questioned his men as to how the story of the ship sertion got into the newspapers dial threatened "drastic" punishment for the man responsible for the "leak." Admiral Under Fire.

The Admiral has been under fire in the Naval Militia recently for his General Order 12, directing that all officers in the State body hold an added United States Naval Reserve rank as well as their grade in the Naval Militia after Nov. 1. This order will force a number of Brooklyn, Manhattan and up-State officers from service, though it is now said that the affected officers plan to defy the commandant's regulation and carry their troubles to Governor Smith. Admiral Josephthal himself has active commission in the U. S.

Naval Reserve. Legion Condemns Order. Old Glory Naval Post, 48, American Legion, yesterday came out in condemnation of Rear Admiral Josephthal's General Order 12 and telegraphed Governor Smith urging that the order be rescinded, or at least held In abeyance until it receives his full investigation. This was announced by Commander-elect G. O.

Gustafson today. The telegram follows: Governor Alfred E. Smith. Commander-in-Chief, Naval and Military Forces, State of New. York, Hotel Biltmore: "At the meeting of Old Glory Naval Post executive committee, held at 123 Schermerhorn st.

this evening. the following resolution was unanimously adopted: 'Resolved, That the members of Old Glory Naval Post, 48, American Legion, whose membership comprises World War veterans of the naval service, exclusive of the Regalar Navy and Naval Reserves, many of whom are now active reservists and therefore extremely interested in the efficiency of the Naval Reserve, strongly condemn General Order 12, issued by the Adjutant General of the State of New York, to take effect Nov. 1, 1926, as we are certain it will lower, rather than advance, the efficiency of the Naval Reserve and Naval Militia, because, if enforced, it will automatically retire a great number of World War veterans, Naval Reserve and Militia officers of exceptional experience and proven "The most striking example is ability. that of Capt.
