Charles C. Weikert, of Inwood, has obtained an order from Supreme Court Justice Steinbrlnk In Brooklyn calling on the members of the Nassau County Board of Supervisors and the Hempstead Town Board to show cause why they should not be restrained from proceeding un der the 1983 budget adopted for the Town of Hempstead. The order is returnable in the Supreme Court here tomorrow. Mr. Weikert was represented by Benjamin Barondess and Arthur G.

Basch. Manhattan attorneys. Mr. Barondess also is president of the Nassau County Consumers League. In his application, Mr.

weikert contends that contrary to sections 145 and 146 of the Town Law ana contrary to the notice related to the budget bearing, tne laaa duo ret was not available to persons desiring to see it, and plaintiff's attempts to examine it were aemea bv the Town Clerk. "The refusal was occasioned by the fact that either said annual es tlmate was not completed until Oct 13. the date of the hearing, or was due to the deliberate intent of the defendants to prevent the pub- lice and taxpayers and others from examining it," the application for the order states. Weikert says that the Tempstead Town Board met on Oct 13 the nroDOsed annual budget was re vealed for the first time. He adds that he requested the Town Board to adjourn the meeting to afford a reasonable chance to the taxpay ers to examine the budget but his request was refused.

He says that on Information and belief after the nronosed budget was adopted it was delivered to the County Supervisors, throucrh the Hempstead Town Supervisors, to enable the Suoervlsors to levy the an- nual tax. He insists that at the time the notice of the public hear ing of the budget (which contained a statement inai me annual enu-mfltn wis then on file in the Town Clerk's office) was being published, the annual budget was not on file at all. The plaintiff alleges that these acts bv tho Town Board and the threatened acts of the Supervisors in levying the tax are not only illegal official acts but are such as imneril the nubile interests, are calculated to work' public fcijury and to Droduce nubile mlscnier, ana "calculated to and had the effect of preventing the tax payers ot tne Town of Hempstead from knowing before the adoption of the budget the contents thereof ana irom knowing- how the money to be raised for 1988 is to be spent." Calls Budget Null and Void wikrt charsres that the pur ported budget for 1933 is null and void since it does not comply with the Town Law in that it does not contain a statement of tne unex-nended balance from the previous fiscal year in that the 1933 budget describes the balance in we ae-partment of towns parks remaining over from 1931 as follows. "Town narks lmrrovements balance on hand will carry through 1938." He declares on information ana belief that the proposed budget does not contain an estimate ot the several sums necessary to pay the principal and interest of all bonded or other Indebtedness of the Town of Hempstead for the fiscal year.

Mineola, Nov. 22. A movement to obtain the use of State funds now limited for highway purposes to carry on other projects was Inaugurated by the Nassau County Board of Supervisors yesterday in an effort to provide money and work for those now idle. Supervisor Sprague, of Hempstead, told the board he had been deeply moved by startling facta revealed by the Nassau County Unemployment Relief Bureau, that It had 12,567 applications for work but could give but a meagre three days a week to only 1,299 men. He asserted that the tax burden on real estate was increasing rapidly; that the county was hard pressed to give relief, while certain highway projects of a specialized nature which the county Is forced to carry on with State moneys easily could be used to lessen the tax burden.

Supervisor Sprague added that at present the only means of giving greater relief to residents of the county who are In need Is by increasing the tax on real property. He pointed out that last year the board discontinued all strictly new county work to economize. He said it had been the board's policy to refrain from approving any new undertakings which would cost a cent In contrast to the strained condition of the county, Supervisor Sprague said: There is money available under State control which could well be used to relieve the taxpayers. There are motor vehicle fees of other State aid of and gasolene tax apportionments of one-fifth collected amounting to $309,000: making a total or more man SSO6.000 re ceived by the county as 320-R money, restricted in use to certain types of highways. "Eveyone knows we are getting back a very small amount of that collected and, in addition, the use to which we can put the money is restricted.

This means, that despite our moratorium on unnecessary expenditures for roads, we have those funds which we can use for no other purposes then just that thing which we are trying to suspend. "I would suggest an amendment to the law so that we can use these 320-B funds for purposes other than road construction." Supervisor Harry Tappen suggested that the move to change the legislation be made a State-wide proposal so that all counties might support it. Supervisor Sprague accepted the suggestion and recommended that tho resolution passed by the board be sent to all other county boards of supervisors. The Supervisors appropriated Nassau County Work Relief Bureau from Nov. 14 to Feb.

1 next. when the Wicks bill of State aid expires. To make the first part of the money available the board authorized the County Treasurer to bor row $75,000 on short term notes to carry the buraeu through for the current month. Othes notes will be issued as money is needed. EXCHANGERS TO DINE Freeport, Nov.

tlon for a through passenger serv ice from Long Island points to New England and upper New York State, over the Hell Gate Bridge route. Mayor Howard G. Wilson, of Lyn brook, represented the association, while the motion was opposed by at torneys for the Pennsylvania Kail- road, the New York Central, the New York, New Haven and Hartford ana the New York Connecting Railroad. After decision on the case was re served, boUi sides were instructed to file briefs on or before Dec. 81.

H. R. Dillingham, civil and rail road engineer, testified on behalf of the complainants as to the gen eral layout of the New York Connecting Railroad, the Long Island Railroad, the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad, the New York, Westchester and Boston Railroad, and the New York Cen tral Railroad as to their connec tions with the New York Connect ing Railroad and the Hell Gate Bridge route. Maps were intro duced showing the location of the railroad lines and their connections, and the stations on the several lines. Testimony as to saving in dis tance of transportation was Intro duced showing that, by means of the Hell Gate Bridge route, witn connections to the New York, New Haven and Hartford at New Rochelle, and the New York, Westchester and Boston in the Bronx, and to the New York Central in the Bronx, there would be savings in distance traveled by a train going from Long Island to upper New York State of from five to seven miles, and that the use of the Hell Gate Bridge would save transfers by subway between ata.

tions and the inconvenience and delay in connection therewith, and In connection with the transfer of baggage. Testimony was given as to the population of Long Island showing a total population of 4,103,638 and a population in Bronx County of and of Westchester County of 4,672,558, and in the Now England states of 8,166,341 The witness then showed that the railroads use the Hell Gate Bridge Route from Pennsylvania Station for passenger trains to Boston, Montreal, the White Mountains and Maine, but did not afford any serv ice over the Hell Gate Bridge Route directly from Long Island for resldycnts of Long Island. The witness also showed that the Long Island Railroad ran trains from Pennsylvania Station via the New York Connecting Railroad to steamship piers in Bay Ridge. A witness for the Long Island Railroad was Hobart Rawson, engineer, who testified as to the objections of the Long Island Railroad to the use of the Hell Gate Bridge route, based upon the difficulty of collecting the traffic from the various branches of the Long Island to send it over this route. On cross-examination by Mayor Wilson, he testified that, at the present time, the Jamaica Station was used as both a transfer and collecting point for all but two of the branches of the Long Island Railroad, and that service could be run from Jamaica to the junction at Fresh Pond and then over the New York Connecting Railroad and the Hell Gate Bridge into the Bronx.

Lynbrook, Nov. 22.

Rudolph Langer, representing the West Lynbrook Civic Association, protested last night at a meeting of the Village Board against the cutting of the pay of employes of the 'Publio Works Department while that of employes of other departments had not been cut. He said he did not object to a cut in salary for all employes, but that he did not believe that tho salaries of but one department should be cut. Mayor Howard G. Wilson said the State Legislature had adopted a plan which cut down the number of days a man could put In on relief work in order to spread out the jobs among a greater number of men. The Mayor said that Lynbrook is now following out the same plan.

The Mayor said the village officials had compared the salaries paid the local police department and other departments with thOBe paid by other villages and learned that tho salaries paid here are considerably lower. Ho declared that no pay would be cut to $2.80 a day as is now being paid to the employes on the grade crossing elimination work, but that a living wage is to be paid everybody. He said the village will cut sala ries when it can, but not to $2.80 a day which would only permit a man's family to starve. He said the officials are trying to find methods by which they can take care of all the unemployed. Laiurer told the board members that the taxpayers are interested in a lower tax rate.

The Mayor satd that the Board intends to endeavor to lower the tax rate, but that the fixed charges make up the greater part of the budget and these cannot be changed. He added that he did not believe the taxpayers would want a two-cent reduction in order to exploit labor. Samuel Weisman was granted an exemption of $800 on that part of his property which is In Lynbrook. William E. Koonicr, who served in the United States Army for 32 years, was granted an exemption of 15.000 on his home.

Both exemp tions were granted as the homes were bought with money received from the army. Trustee J. Henry Nussle reported that the members of the board had made an inspection of the street lights and have learned where about $1,200 a year can be saved by doing away with a number of unnecessary lights.

ESTS SLASH IN LYNBROOK PAY Hempstead H.S. Explains Hempstead, Nov. 22. Principal Raymond Maure and other officials of Hempstead H. today explained their version of last Friday afternoon's school dance- in which several couples were "politely ejected." Mr.

Maure said it is a school regulation that only students of the school are permitted to attend these affairs. Thus, he said, when it was learned that a number of outsiders had gained admission, Florence Hall, advisor to the ju nior class, explained the regula tion and requested five Freeport couples and a high school student from Baldwin to leave. He added that their admission fees were returned to them and that there was no disturbance when they left. 1 Ultimate Victors in Forest Hills Zone Actions Seek to Recover From Losers. Hearing was continued today be fore Justice Hallinan and a jury in Queens Supreme Court, Long Island City, in the $7,600 damage action brought by David Stambler, Joseph C.

Munterferlng and Ferdi nand Mencaccy against Mr. and firs. Peter B. Croghan, Walter and John Vanderveer and William H. Nichols, Inc.

All of the plaintiffs and de fendants are residents of Forest Hills. The plaintiffs are seeking to col lect the $7,500 on the ground that they spent this sum to retain coun sel to defend themselves against several court actions brought against them by the defendants. Congressman Testifies These actions, it was testified, subsequently were decided in favor of the plaintiffs in the present case. Representative Samuel Dickstein testified that he appeared for the plaintiffs in the various suits, and that his services in their behalf were worth $7,500. Mr.

Dickstein told, the Jury the suits were brought in an effort to prevent the erection of stores and apartments in Stafford ave Forest Hills, in 192G, 1927 and 1928. He testified that in 1926 he applied to the Board of Estimate to rezone Stafford ave. and five other blocks in the same area so that the stores might be built. The rezoning was ordered subsequently, he said, despite the protests of the defendants and the Forest Hills Community Association. Thereupon, Mr.

Dickstoin, continued, a permanent injunction was obtained by Mr. and Mrs. Croghan and their fellow defendants restraining the plaintiffs from proceeding with the construction of the buildings. Injunction Removed Some time later, he added, when the case came to trial, the injunction was ordered removed by Justice John B. Johnson.

Thereupon, said Mr. Dickstein, a lis pendens was obtained against the property in questtion, and this also prevented completion of the work until it was ordered removed in Supreme Court. As a result of all these suits, Mr. Dickstein said, his clients were put to a gerat deal of expense and inconvenience, resulting in the Btart of the present action in 1928. The stores and apartments finally were completed nearly three yars after hey were started, it was testified.

NURSE LOSES APPENDIX Mist Msry Flory Has "Spsoialed" in Such Case. Miss Mary Flory, a trained nurse of 147-01 Hillside Jamaica, has sympathized with many a victim of appendicitis since she was graduated from the nurses' training school of Mary Immaculate Hospital, Jamaica, and started private practice. Now she is discovering how to sympathize still further, for she is herself a patient in that hospital and had a troublesome and Inflamed appendix removed yesterday. Having "soeclaled" many a case, Miss Flory now has a 'special" of her own, who was one of her class- mutes in training school. But, said Miss Flory today, she expects the experience to be a valuable one.
