Don't Believe All Signs, Says This Commuter One resident of LonK Island woke up In the vlllape of Valley Ktrpam yesterday with a firm conviction that "everything should he taken with a grain of salt," and especially painted fciens at the Station of the Lonf? Island Railroad. ThiH resident Huld he took a train from platform 4. upon which were freshly painted Bins indicating the destination of trains. Me hoarded the train and a half later awoke In Valley Stream, which was not what the Flsn said. He returned to the Jamaica depot and finally located liia train on platform -6.

Cropsey. "The burden of Increasing the number of judges would be very great and the benefit almost nothing." suld Justice Cropsey. "Such a step should not even be contemplated, In my opinion, until every other reasonable expedient been resorted to towards bringing the work of the courts more nearly up to date than It Is at present.

Cites I allure of One Incrcuse. "Experience has shown that more Judges would not necessarily mean the trying of more cases or a more rapidly moving calender. In. Manhattan, not so long ago, quite a number of additional Justices were added to the Supreme Court In the First Judicial District, and Instead of be log nearer up to date than it was before the additional judges were made, the calender Is, so far as I cun learn, further than ever behind.

M. T. TO JERSEY Tells Crescent Forum Money Is More Needed for Boro Extensions. Travis II. Whitney, vice president of the B.

M. T. subways, declared late yesterday afterncon that the Mastlck-Uavlson committee plans, drafted to extend the B. M. T.

from 14th st. and 6th Manhattan, to Hoboken and Jersey City, would ill- vert the use of funds lor the much- more needed Improvements 111 transportation for Brooklyn, Introduced at the regular Satur day luncheon forum In the Crescent Club by Supreme Court Justice James C. Cropsey, Mr. Whitney told the members that the proposed ex tension was relatively of no impor tance when compared to the extensions more necessary in Brooklyn. Need Extension Hero Mrst, 'The Masltck-Davlson committee has no doubt Btudied the transit problems of Greater New York as a whole, but has lost eight of the mare 'necessary needs of this boro," he said.

"If you would consider the merits of the proposed extensions there is at present little or no need ror an added feeder from the B. M. T. system Into Jersey. But hen 'we consider the growth of Brooklyn and the almost stag nated expansion-of the transportation facilities to match the Increase In population, there is no douht that B.

M. T. extensions ure better con centrated In this boro for the present. Of course if the city orders thai the extension be constructed there Is nothing for us to do but begin working on it." Other Plans. The other plana to be reported to the Legislature by the Mastick-Da- vlson committee are the extension of the Long Island Railroad service from Atlantic and Flatbush aves.

through Atlantic ave. to the East Kiver under the river to Battery I'ark, up the West Side to D7th st. and the East River, and back under the river to Jamaica. In his talk Mr. Whitney explained how the present transit problem in Brooklyn arose.

Notwithstanding the theories of some persons regarding the eventual development of bus systems throughout the city, he said that they could not solve the problem alone. As compared with they serve the community best as feeders and as a temporary relief. He urged upon the forumites the desirability of controlling the bus systems by transit companies already In existence, asserting that a unilled control would serve the community better. Boro Suffers Pains. "Brooklyn Is suffering from growing pains as a result of the early expansion of transportation.

The building of new homes has been increasingly encouraged and population has proportionately Increased. While the transportation needs have increased, services by the carrier companies have necessarily remained the same due to lack of provision for rapid expansion," he declared. "There should be provision made for additional transit facilities as need for expansion arises. A revolving provision in the budget of the city should set aside from 1 5,000, 000 to $20,000,000 for Improvements and new subways. In other cities contracts to carrier utilities provide that 20 percet of a company's gross revenue be diverted each year for extensions or Improvements.

Hut It is difficult for some companies to Increase Us capitalization arbitrarily if Ita Income does not Justify It. Plans fur Future. "This Is especially true of the sit uation In New York when the fares remain at five cents while all other costs have risen. With the Investment of $30,000,000 by the city Just 20 percent of Its original Invest ment In the H. M.

T. subways for the improvement of the existing system, service! would Increase 100 percent." He then described the changes the company had In mind. Many stations now accommodating a string of six cars would be lengthened to accommodate two more, thus Increasing the carrying capacity. He explained the need for additional shops for the repair of can and proposed that a shunt line from Montague running under the river and Nassau st. to the Municipal Building, be hullf to allow the Increase of express trulns on the trunk line feeding Manhattan.

"People who use the Culver line nn the West End trunk can't eeem to understand why an express track on that line remains Idle. There Is no capacity for more than 60 express trains an hour under the existing arrangement. If that extension from the Montague st. elation to the Municipal Building Is opened we would be ah.e to use Instead of CO expresa trains," he said. MRS.

FIELD ASSAILS, SELIGMAN DEFENDS STATEPAROLE BOARD Assistant District Attorney Would Abolish It-Banker Takes Issue With Her. The State parole board waa called as conducive to crime and defended as a beacon light to reformed criminals during a Citizen's Crime Wave conference held yes terday afternoon at the Hotel I.ilt-tnore under aunplces of the Mar shall Stlllman Movement. Alphonso leer, president and founder, pre sided. Assistant District Attorney Mrs. Pauline O.

Field, a speaker at the conference, said, "The parole board should be abolished because It aoea more harm than good." Her suggestion for an efficient crime deterrent waa th passing of severer lav. dealing with criminals. Jefferson Sellgmsn, Wall Strei banker, defended the parole board as an Institution designed to en courage criminals to atone for tneir misdeeds. It shows society la willing to give the unfortunate a chance to make good, he said. Measures for preventing crime were discussed in general by Special Sessions Judge Anthony Menkcl (if 1'elham, Benjamin Winter and llov.

-ard Clark Barber. Newspaper attitude towards the movement waa criticized, It icim charged news Items relative to it gave the impression prisoners anil criminals were being coddled and petted. This Impression as denied by Judge Menkel, who said l.r. object was to help the normal crlm-inal who could be converted Into i'vlng a constructive, life. Decent clube for young men were urged by Samuel Katz, a reformed criminal.

Baltimore, March 6 Aroused by embezzlements affecting at least half a score of Baltimore banks, and resulting In losses of more than $1,008,000 In the past six months. Baltimore banks today were map ping out a campaign to force race trucks out of business In Mnrylnad.

Virtually all of the million embezzled, according to the- testimony at the trials of bank embezzlers, was lost at the tracks. Ruve--traok betting lone has been opposed by the reform element in Maryland, hut not until the coming -i session of the Leglslatire has it ever oeen nnie to recruit to Its heln the big business men. Republicans, seeking slogans to defeat Governor Ritchie, also have adopted an attitude apparently hostile to the tracks. With the banking Interests lined up with the "moral vote." a furious drive against race track betting in Maryland is foreseen. WINGATE EARNS $2,500: NOT PAID Law Prevents Payment of Fee Fixed for Drawing Jurors.

Senator James A. 'Higglna' bill making the salary of Surrogate of Kings always equal to that received by Supreme Court Justices in the county reveals the curious fact that Surrogate George Albert Wlngate Is noiv doing worth of work year for which he receives no pay. His present basic pay is $16,000. to which is added $2,600 for handling transfer tax cuaea. This makes his actual pay $17,600 a year, the same as thul received by a Supreme Court Justice.

Hut there Is another 82,600 that Surrogate Wlngate earns but cannot receive because of a curious provision In the luw He earns $2,600 year for drawing Jurors, but doesn't draw the $2, ton because tho law snys he shall not receive In excess of what a Supreme Court Justice receives $1 7.600.

Mis Wll I 1AM A PAI-TI'I! Mis I', 1 1 tV A I 1 1 M.i'l Ll.olint I i no trial work in the Brooklyn supreme loiirt Is about 19 to 20 months behind. months behind, whatever the numerical status of the calendet might be, but I do not helleve that even eight additional Judges sent Into this court would have the effect of bringing the calender anywhere near up to date. Would Increase Judges' Hours. "Before the taxpayers nre burdened with more Judges. I think It would be a good Idea, for Instance, if all the Judges now sitting would prolong their court sessions each day.

This month, for Instance, we have nine judges assigned to the trial narta here, and If nn wa (to sit for half an hour longer each mere wouio De a gain of four and a half hours, the equivalent of almost a whole court day under the present custom. "Some of jthe routine work that takes up the time of the Judges might he abolished, and some of that could be accomplished bv having Jurors for cases railed for trial selected In another room, other than the trial room, for It Is seldom that the court Is called on to rule with respect to qualifications and challenges of talesmen in civil cases. Would Knd Petty Cases. "There are hundreds of cases on this calendar which should not he in the Supreme Court at nil, and should have been brought in Municipal Court. One of the bar associations has recommended that penalties be imposed In such insignificant cases where the verdicts are In such amount and the evidence shows that the case did not belong In the Supreme Court at all.

"The condition of the calender here at the present time la far from satisfactory, but I do think other methods than creating more judges should bo seriously tried first. NOTICE THAT L.I.R.R.
