All of the pupils, responding to a fire drill alarm, marched out In an orderly manner. An electrician at work In the room at the time of the explosion was slightly injured.

The explosion occurred In the classroom of Grade 8A, where ordinarily 49 pupils, In charge of Miss Harrlette Landers, would have been. At 8:40 o'clock, the time of the explosion, all were In the main assembly room on the ground floor. George Zlpp, 18, an electrician, of 583 Beach the Bronx, entered the classroom to disconnect an electric fixture preparatory to searching for escaping gas.

HOWE AND KLAN WIN IN SUFFOLK The strength of Ihe Ku-Klux Klan was again shown In Suffolk County yesterday when' Its candidate for Sheriff, Burton G. Howe, running on the Republican ticket, won an easy victory over his Democratic oppo nent, Walter R. Willis. Howe carried nine of the ten towns In the couniy, losing only Smithtown, which Willis, an avowed enemy of tho Klan, carried by only 68.

The Republican candidate's total for the entire county was 21,999, giving him a plurality nf 7,177 over Willis, who received a tolal vote of 14,822. Howe's victory-strengthens George H. McDonald's position as county leader. With the exception of Smithtown and to a certain extent Shelter Island, the Republicans showed most of their old-time strength. All of their county candidates were elected, as were most of tho G.

4--Under the watchful eye of State troopers, private deieeiivs, city police and a host of political guardians, the so-called "lieynoldsism" of Long Beach went down to defeat yesterday at the hands of the, voters when Mayor William J. Dalton, Democratic candidate for re-election, won a bitterly contested election from former Mayor William H. Reynolds of the Loyal Citizens ticket by a plurality of 157. Dalton carried hU entire ticket In with him. Louis Edwards, who ran alone for Councilman, made one of the best showings of the day, even though he was defeated.

"The people of Long Beach have spoken," declared Mayor William J. Dalton, when his victory was assured. "During the next four years Long Beach will have a business administration that will bring credit to the clly and all concerned. "My opponent and his ticket put up a good fight, but we were sure of winning from the sturt. I had a wonderful array of supporters that worked every minute.

Probe Aided, Says Dalton. "These flagrant violation of the Election Law that caused a special Investigation by the Attorney General had something to do with defeating the opposition, I believe. I am more than proud to be Mayor of this city for the next four years and hope that we will all pull together for a better beach city. "Old Long Beach stood by me with the wonderful loyalty it has always DEATHS MACK AY On Tuesday, Nov. 3.

Vi Confidence Vote in the Chamber Secured Narrow Margin. by Paris. Nov. 4 (A "The Ministry will carry on!" Thus replied Fau! Palnleve, the Premier, to persons who asked him today what were his future plans. The Interrogators had In mind yesterday's opening stssion of Parliament, when the Premier was given a vote of confidence on his reconstructed Cabinet's program, but only with the aid of former political enemies and with 121 Deputies re-I raining from voting.

The ballot showed 221 to 189 in favor of the Premier's plans. Gets Lease of Life The vote of confidence gives the government a lease of life over the opposition of the Socialists, but In political circles the opinion prevails that it will not extend over any great length of time. It Is considered In these circle that an administration which can count on only 220 out of the 5S0 votes In the Chamber hardly has sufficient strength behind It to undertake Imperative legislation which vitally affects every Frenchman. One thing appears to be certain as anything can be certain In French politics that the famous coalition of the Left parties, which won the elections In 1924, is broken by the defection of the Socialist half and that a majority for the Government has not yet emerged. That majority was expecttd to come from the central benches and to form around Foreign Vlnister Brland who, with his Locarno laurels still fresh on hia brow, at present enjoy more prestige than any French stateman has enjoyed for some time past.

It Is asserted that many deputies who voted In favor of confidence are opposed to tho program of the Premier as outlined In his declaration before the Chamber. The pound sterling was at 120 and the dollars at 24.83 francs, and this fact Is considered as having influenced many of the Deputies against overthrowing the government and possibly-making the financial situation worse Among the proposal made by M. Palnleve looking to an amelioration of the financial situation was a spe-clal tax on all forms of wealth, without any Inflation, and no loans. Also lie urged as one of Importance In restoring confidence and credit prompt fettlemcnt of France's debt to the United States and Great Britain. Durable peace in Morocco and Syria were Included in the provisions of ihe government's declaration.

Beautiful Letters in South the Can Battle Over Printed in a Literary WRITING In the United States has it advantages above and beyond the comparatively large quantities of spondullx possible for the successful. It Is, almost Invariably, a nice, safe calling, rarely demanding the sacrifice of life 'or even the shedding of blood. Here In the States writer usually live to a ripe old age, aome even surviving to write in Scribner's, and it Is not often that our local penmen die of anything more Violent than starvation. It Is when one reads of the situation In South America that one appreciates this beneficent condition.

Last week, tollowlng nothing more significant than a newspaper controversy over the merits of the works of a Mexican editor. K-uitos poet laureate of Peru, and Edwin Klmoie, a red-hot admirer of the Mexican editor, clashed as men clash, with fists and gats, and at' this' writing Elmore Is In a Lima hospital, the worst being expected. The motive that drove Klmcre Into attacking an armed and Infuriated poet was a feeling that the poet was' not dealing fairly by another writing man. That was all. a a -There Is.

thank God. no Jikclihood of such- feeling In these civilized areas. We boys who live by the typewriter proceed with perfect cer tainly that nothing worse than indignant letter will lullow a passionate uttuck on literary values. hen we leave our desks we are reasonably sure that, barring taxi accidents, fulling ricctric signs, holdup men, roughnecks In general, and other acts beyond the control of human, agencies, we will reach Our monastic cells with our hearts high. cur brains clear mid our whole.

and then, to he mre, there Is a tiriy suggestion of fervur. Once Earnest Hoyd wrote a satirical Sketch in which a certain poet and critic landed lie saw himself lam pooned. The critic puet called, at the Hoyd home with a hulf-hrlcK. and, not finding Mr. Hoyd In, loafed around the corner drugstore something resembling bellicose mood, but happily nothing ever happened.

The poet got hungry and left. Evidently he never remembered to come bnrk and reduce Mr. lioyd to dust. That was till Inere was to. that.

Nearer home, right here in this column recently, a sentence intended to convey praise to another writer became Involved to the point that, finally, it proved to lie a slurring comment on the other writer's ability a most unfortunate and regrettable error. There was, then, for a day or so some tall talk, but cooler heads prevnlled and the molormnn fared forth last happy In the consciousness that there was no rancor against him in any heart. Hut thero nren't many such cases. This very day I can say something derogatory of the talents of Sherwood Anderson or I'M nil Si. Vincent Mlllay and go home certain that neither Mr.

Anderson nor Jllss Mlllay will be there at my door with drawn guns or blackjacks. This makes me. for one, very, very pleased with conditions in the United States. It Is fearful to think of the catastrophes that might follow the spread of this South American spirit to tho United States, or, In particular, to New York. Would one be Bare In Jth with H.

There are so many such potential troubles here. Dr. Sherman has a tlt of feeling against Theodore Dreiser.

Several have written rather bitterly against Harold Bell Wright and Zane Grey. Percy Hammond has spoken slightingly of manv actors and actresses. Oeorge Jen Nathan' opinion of Samuel Shlpman heaven knows, no secret. These personal affairs appear'on all sides. The South American fever is even beyond these.

Chocano had written nothing about Elmore. There Is no In- oMcatton that he kryw Elmore. The latter's savage grievance was second hand. He resented be-littlement of a writer ho admired. The suggestion that such vicarious offense might take root as a possibility in writing circles In the United States' 1 unthinkable.

What moved me to writing was It apparent safeness and peace. In th old day, I knew, tho editor of a country paper referred to a subscriber In arrears as a donkey and crook and the next day there was an opening either for another editor or for another subscriber: But that was Mark Twain's day. In iny town the editor wrote one way or the other about anything that came to his mind and nothing ever happened, prolwbly. because nobody read what had been written, I could have taken up steeplejack- Ing. I could have been a boatman or a railroad engineer or a baseball player.

The risks In. these possible' fields varied In degroe, but In all the risks were there, to some extent, however little. Naturally, then, they were out. I selected newspaper work because about the worst felt could happen to me there would be to beflred, which i I was. That 1 could.stand.

That I did. It was slmplo compared to living by the sword and dying by th. sword. It was simple compared to dying In any fashion whatever. The South American fever may or may not be a menace.

If by som. chance II extended to New York only In the shape of making It worth a fellow's life to say tha. Henry Syrtnor Harrison's latest book was not up to his usual standard, ns set by Eyes," I could manage to remain at my present labor and still eat. sleep and breathe without th aid of surgical devices. I should pimply say.

In that event, that Henry Sydnor Harrison's book was a knockout, tliat, Thomas Hardy would have.to look to his laurels, and tha' It was even -better than Eyes." That much would be child's piny. But If this fever should extend here In Its present South American form, which is- to suy, rendering writlnga bad insurance risk even by ay of unknown admirers of criticized writer, then everything would be shot to the demnltlon bow-wows for true. If In saying that Mr. Harrison's book Is less worthy than "Penguin Island" a writer should expose himself to a shot or two from Max (loUlfarb, 28, student, of 8SS2S Bay 33th who had always held Mr. Harrison In the highest esteem and felt it a personal affront to read anything against Mr.

Harrison's lalenls If the fever should tnke this violent form, all I have to say Is that the following day anybody curious as to what became of me would be able to find my resignation on the managing editor' desk, my typewriter In the wiistelmsket and my hat on the rack In one of C'ushmnn's hrnnch bakeries.
