CYPRESS HILLS ABBEY New bested in Cryers cadet CYPRESS HILLS ABBEY Once 1 DE KALD AVE N. T. Roar Tom do League Holds View That Any Candidate Will Be Bound to Uphold Law. Winona Lake, Aug. 17 (A)- Directors of the Anti-Saloon League have decided against asking the Republican and Democratic parties to include Prohibition Law enforcement planks in their platforms.

The directors, who discussed league affairs for 16 hours yesterday, took the view that no political party would nominate for President "a man who cannot be relied upon to keep his oath of office to uphold the Constitution of the United States and to enforce its laws." S. Shumaker, superintendent of the Indiana Anti-Saloon League, explained to the directors the contempt of court case which recently resulted in his being sentenced to 60 days imprisonment. Criticism of court actions in liquor cases led to the charges upon which Mr. Shumaker was sentenced. The League's views, as they affect the forthcoming political situation, were outlined in the following "declaration of Settled by Public.

"The American people have settled the liquor question in the most emphatic, thoroughgoing and permanent way open to them; namely, by placing in the Federal Constitution with the largest majority ever given a Federal Constitutional Amendment, an amendment prohibiting the manufacture, sale, transportation, importation and exportation of intoxicating liquors for beverage purposes. Congress has interpreted the will of the people as thus expressed by passing an act to make effective this amendment and by providing for 1 its enforcement. Supreme Court of United States has passed favorably upon the constitutionality of the several steps taken by the people and by Congress. "We assume that no political party which stands for the American form of constitutional government and for government by law will bid for the votes. of the American people on any other basis than that of respect for and loyalty to the laws of the land.

both constitutional and statutory. We shall take it to be the policy of all parties, if and when placed in power, to stand for the enforcement of the Prohibition laws as of other laws." CASH SETTLEMENT MAY ROB CHAPLIN TRIALOF FEATURES Money Question Solved, Case Would Fall Into Mere Routine Divorce Class. Los Angeles, Aug. 17 (AP)---Reports of a property settlement either already effected or nearing completion in the sensational divorce suit of Lita Grey Chaplin against her film comedian husband, Charles Chaplin, gained new impetus today. These reports fed and fattened on the hurried arrival of the actor here yesterday and the massing of his legal batteries as well as the force of counsel for his wife despite the declaration of attorneys that legal technicalities make imperative a postponement of the trial set for Monday.

Would Simplify Case. If property problems of the case were settled before that time it would be possible for Mrs. Chaplin's attorneys to go into court with a modified complaint. The trial then would become a routine divorce action, lacking the startling elements injected into it by the "seven women, three of them prominent motion picture accused in the wife's complaint and the "certain young man" mentioned in the actor's counter action. Chaplin last night spent a half hour playing with his two small sons, whom he had not seen since months ago when he left California for New York, just before his wife filed her divorce suit.

The meeting of father and sons took place in the Beverly Hills mansion from which the girlwife fled last fall to return later after the courts had awarded her possession. Mrs. Chaplin and her mother were in the background while Chaplin played with the boys. He was told he could return to see them whenever he desired. The actor stayed in virtual seclusion at the home of his brother, Syd Chaplin.

LA GUARDIA JOLTS ARMY ON AIRPORT Scents Scandal in Opposition to Governors Island Plan. Washington, Aug. 17-Army officers who like to sit on "New York's front porch" and play polo and golf on Governors Island are leading the opposition to converting the island into an airport for New York City, Congressman LaGuardia, of Manhattan charged. He declared that the Army officials are abetted in their opposition by powerful real estate interests who desire to "grab" Governors Island for a fraction of its worth. "A scandal is in the offing if the Government continues its Fire in Which Woman Died REA Here is a view of the ruins of the Winfield home in which Mrs.

Antonio Giovanniello was burned to death when fire destroyed it. One child, Vita, 15 months old, and another, Frank, 6, were saved when the father threw them out of a window. EXPECT ALDERMEN TO SHELVE PRATT ATTACK ON KOHLER Demand for Budget Resignation Up at Session of Board Today. The Board of Aldermen today was to make short work of expected, Ruth Pratt's resolution calling upon Mayor Walker to demand the resignation of Director of the Budget Charles L. Kohler on the allegation that.

as secretary of the Health Department under former Commissioners Copeland and Monaghan he was "culpably negligent" in the wholesale graft with which, Justice Kelby reported. the department reeked. Inasmuch as this afternoon's sion of the Aldermanic body was called as a special one to pass on a resolution approving Mayor Walker's housing plan and will meet as the lower' branch of the Municipal Assembly it is possible that Mrs. Pratt will not have an opportunity to introduce her resolution. Tammany's Probable rian.

found to be fictitious. Says Public Was Hoodwinked. However, it is believed more likely that the board will reconvene after adjourning as the Municipal Assembly branch and hear Mrs. Pratt's resolution. Then the almost inevitable procedure will be for the Tammany majority promptly to get rid it to some committee by or more of it for the time being by, referring votes to the three of Mrs.

Pratt and the two other Republican members of the body. When Mrs. resolution goes to the Board, however, the woman Alderman will be fortified with the statement of the Citizens' Union criticizing Kohler. The statement calls it amazing that Kohler as an official of the Health Department could allow all the alleged corruption there to go by unnoticed. It charged the former secretary of the department with engineering the $1,000.000 "emergency" appropriations during the Hylan administration to fight "epidemics" which Justice Kelby The Citizens' Union statement, however, did not limit itself to Kohler.

It also discussed the Kelby investigation, declaring the latter had failed to uncover anything not already known and that, "in a word, the public has been completely hoodwinked." "Some of the little fellows have been prosecuted." the statement says "But the 'executive heads of the departments' who must have known the conditions of corruption in the department, have been and remain im mune from even being named in Mr. Kelby's report. Kohler, who was said to be on 0 vacation when the double-barreled attack centered on him, hastily appeared at City Hall last night and conferred with Acting Mayor McKee for an hour. He carried a worried expression when he emerged. Policeman Is Killed, Two Hurt in Auto Crash Paterson, N.

Aug. 17 (P) A policeman was killed and two men were injured today when their motorcar crashed into a tree on W. Broadway and turned over. They were returning from an outing of the Motorcycle Squad of the Police Department. The dead man was Motorcycle Officer John Barkalow.

The injured are Motorcycle Officer James Powers and Kortlandt Schickfust. The car was driven by Powers, LaGuardia stated. "I think the Army will find itself in an embarrassing position." LaGuardia scoffed at the statement of F. Trubee Davison, Assistant Secretary of War for Aviation, that Governors Island is unsuited for an airport because of unfavorable winds. He has often landed there and had no difficulty, LaGuardia stated.

S. Byrne, in Plea for Justice Doughty, Writes to McCooey and Livingston. An appeal in the name of the "best interests of Brooklyn" for united Democratic Republican support for Municipal Court Justice Edgar M. Doughty, Republican incumbent for the past 12 years in the 6th District. was made today by Joseph S.

Byrne, lawyer, Democrat and chairman of the courts committee of the Civic Council of Brooklyn. Mr. Byrne sent a joint letter to Democratic County Leader John H. McCooey and Republican Leader Jacob A. Livingston.

"When a Judge has faithfully served the people, as both Justice Doughty and Justice William J. Bogenshutz have, and where they have abandoned their practice for years when a profitable clientelle could be built up," he wrote, "I believe no fair-minded person, whether interested in the political phase things or not, can deny the justice of giving such JZudges support of both the great parties." Yesterday the Democrats unanimously voted to refuse Democratic indorsement to Justice Doughty. The G. O. P.

has indorsed Justice Bogenshutz, the Democratic jurist who has occupied the Municipal Court bench in the 3d District for the past 20 years. "Governor Smith apparently believes in keeping on the bench tried and able judges who, after serving out their terms seek re-election." Mr. Byrne said. "I believe that I am in good company, and although a Democrat, have a perfect right to criticise action which has been taken by boro Democratic organization the and to urge Mr. McCooey to reconsider in the interests of justice."

according to an analysis made by the Department of Health at the request, of the Department of Public tion. The rural schools of the State derive their water from driven wells, I dug wells, springs and cisterns. Half of the schools have now installed driven wells, and 86 percent of these are safe. Defects in piping, the construction of protecting walls, and inadequate facilities for carrying waste water a sufficient distance are some of the faults contributing to contamination of the remaining 14 percent. Only one-half of the dug wells supplying 32 percent of the rural schools are satisfactory, the report said.

One-third of the springs are liable to pollution. Treat Kensico Ponds. North Castle, N. Aug. 16-The Board of Water Supply of New York City today took steps to prevent the contamination of.

BELT HIGHWAY PROJECT APPROVED BY CHAMBER BODY Frank Quinby, chairman of the city plan committee of the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce, today in menting on the report of the Governor's Committee on Public Improvement especially in regard to the road situation on Long Island, approved the recommendation for a belt line highway with separated grades around the island. This is the suggestion of the city plan committee of the chamber, which has recommended that the location of the north and south belt highway be left to the State Department. The belt line, It is pointed out, will relieve traffic congestion at many of the intersections of roads and railroad lines where thousands of motorists are tied up for hours at a time. "It is this part of the program advocated by the committee." Mr. Quinby said.

"that is of most interest to Brooklyn. So much money is spent by lynites in taxes for State highway imI that it "seems entirely justifiable that' the State should make this contribution to the inter-county road situation on Long Island."
