1: I THE BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE, NEW YORK 'HURSDAY, AUGUST 15, BANS TRUCK SERVICE BY ROADS TO N. Y. SHIPPERS N. Y. Central, Jersey Central, New Haven and B.

and O. Hit by Ruling Washington, Aug. 15 (P)-The Interstate Commerce Commission today ruled that railroads rendering freight service to New York City could not be permitted to continue the practice of making freight deliveries by truck service away from their own stations. The commission held that the maintenance of "constructive station service" on freight deliveries in tral, Jersey Central Baltimore Manhattan by the Nene York Cenand Ohio was unlawful. New Haven Hit Also.

The New Haven Railroad was likewise required to discontinue "constructive station service," and the proposal of the New York Central to give "constructive lighterage" on New England traffic to and from New York City also was ruled unlawful. In addition the Commission held that it had no power under Federal law to compel railroads to establish store door receipt and delivery for freight in New York and elsewhere. Constructive stations referred to in the decision are points maintained inside Manhattan, off the lines and away from the rail terminals. to which the railroads have instituted the practice of forwarding freight by trucks from the actual rail heads. The railroads thus pay a portion of the cost of trucking freight a part of the distance to and from New York shipping houses, and off their own rails.

the cost of this service is included in the rail rate, the commission's decision held that it constituted undue rendering of free service to New York shippers and consignees of freight. Other Roads Seek Right. The questione was raised by the proposal railroads to enter the trucking field to meet the competition of the carriers so engaged. New York business organizations, intervening, suggested that instead of the constructive station trucking service, railroads should be required to install a general practice of delivering and receiving freight at the doors of business houses in that city. Dispute 1.

C. C. Meaning. At the offices of the Port of New York Authority it was afternoon that the I. C.

C. decision, instead of holding that railroads not continue the practice of making freight deliveries by holds that they "need not contizue making deliveries if they fit to discontinue them." The Port Authority spokesman continued: "After making such deliveries for years the railroads announced some time ago that they would discontinue doing so. Various interested organizations, such as the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce, the New York Chamber of Commerce and the Merchants Association moved before the I. C. C.

to prevent this, 80 the roads suspended action pending a decision." W. L.

Peter P. Smith of Smith, Reiher and Griffin, counsel for the bank, said an investigation led them to believe that the first reports were started by a Swede who came to the bank about three weeks ago and was unsuccessful in his efforts to obtain a loan. This man, said Smith, wanted to borrow $16,000, offering as collateral a house worth only $10,000. When he was refused, according to Smith, the man went to a speakeasy in the neighborhood and said he had tried to get money at the bank and "the bank didn't have it." Not long after that, Smith said, false rumors of a "run" began to circulate, culminating in the false rumor of the death of Dr. Lewis.

The officials of the bank expressed confidence that the way in which the crisis had been met would soon allay the fears of the timorous. Every effort was made to facilitate the payment of all who wanted their money. At 10 a.m. A big armored motor truck brought bags of money to the bank and the 17 tellers moved swiftly in paying depositors, Payments will continue, said Dr. Lewis, until every depositor who wants his money has it.

Available funds are sufficient to meet every demand. In addition, savings banks with aggregate resources of more than $1,250,000,000 today pledged assistance to the bank should it be needed. Announcement of this was made by Henry R. Kinsey, chairman of Group V. Savings Bank Association of New York, which includes all savings banks in Brooklyn, Queens, Nassau, Suffolk and Staten Island.

Their assistance, he said. would not be confined to meeting withdrawals, but also would extend to help in "locating the person or persons circulating the malicious rumors." More Aid Offered. Three offers of assistance were telephoned Dr. Lewis shortly before 1 p.m. by E.

C. Delafield, president of the Bank of America; George V. McLaughlin, president of the Brooklyn Trust Company, and Stephen Duffy, millionaire president of J. P. Duffy a building material firm.

Dr. Lewis expressed his thanks but said no help was needed since the bank was in sound financial condition. Delafield offered "any amount of financial assistance that may be needed." McLaughlin phoned that "the Brooklyn Trust support is unlimited." Duffy offered a personal loan of $100,000 to his friend, Dr. Lewis. Officers of the branch of the National City Bank across street from the Bay Ridge Bank refused to accept deposits from persons who had withdrawn their savings from its neighbor bank and urged them to return and redeposit their money.

The progress of negotiations in the political committee of the conference with reference to evacuation of the Rhineland had given rise to the argument that if the French and Germans could agree on this graver question it would not be possible for anybody to stand out against agreement in the financial committee on the matter of a comparatively small sum of money. The Chancellor, it was said, felt he was being pushed into a false position and exposed to criticisms from home for backing down after having aroused the entire nation to his support. Chancellor Snowden made known the fact that his position was unchanged in a letter Premier Jaspar of Belgium, who communicated the message to the other chief delegates. This provoked a meeting of four of the main creditor nations yesterday at which adopted 8 resolution to -the effect that they stood together on the Young plan. Plan Their Battle.

Talk With Germans. Mr.

Snowden and Arthur Henderson, British Foreign Minister, dined with Gustav German Foreign Minister, last night, and discussed the situation as it affected the interests of their countries. The meeting was of far importance, however, than the French, Belgian, Italian and Japanese conversations, since Germany is the sole debtor nation and the problems raised by Mr. Snowden are ones for the creditor nations to settle among themselves.

1 15-A plea for co-operation between the Federal and State governments in the enforcement of Prohibition was made here today by Prohibition Commissioner J. M. Doran, speaking at the round table discussion of law enforcement, at the University of Virginia's Institute of Public Affairs. At the same time Commissioner Doran advocated the confinement of the activities of Federal enforcement to the prevention of smuggling, the control of medicinal and industrial alcohol and the prevention of interstate bootlegging on a large commercial scale. Text of Speech.

The Commissioner said, in part: "We must either bend our efforts te the clarification of the State and Federal function as it relates to police activities necessarily arising in connection with enforcement of liquor laws, and bring about a clearer conception of these two functions in the public mind, with a necessary corollary of developing more fully the State police powers and bringing about a discharge of the constitutional obligations of those States not now adequately discharging them, or else embark on a fixed program of expanding the facilities of the Federal Government, executive and judicial, to the point where they will completely discharge every enforcement function great and small as it relates to laws arising from the Eighteenth Amendment. Prefers First Alternative. "Until we adopt either one of these programs, there will continue to be confusion and some considerable public impatience with condition as there are. Of th etwo alternatives, I prefer first, namely, the developing of the distinctly Federal function and the coincident development and application of the distinctly State function. "The Federal function seems to me to relate to the suppression of smuggling, the conduct of the regulatory system controlling industrial alcohol and medicinal liquors in their permissible and desirable uses for other than beverage purposes, the action with respect to interstate and large scale illegal combinations that commercialize the manufacture, distribution and sale of illicit liquor, and the prosecution of corrupt groups of officials who may be in conspiracy with commercial illicit liquor traffickers and who thus paralize the operations of local prohibitory laws." Of the failure of States to pass enforcement codes, Doran said: "A great deal of Federal effort has been expended, and to some extent dissipated, in times past in the futile attempt to step in and discharge the detailed police powers and duties of the several States where there was either the absence of a State code or the officialdom the State were not inclined to properly discharge their obligations in the enforcement of a prohibitory act." girl, beaten, burned and the furies of her stepmother Her head had been bounced had been bitten by someone in Children's agents wished to show every consideration.

She became a mother a few weeks ago. Yesterday, however, an uncle of the girl notified the agents that Madelin was being beaten again. Going to the house with Detectives Leo Murphy and James Kane of the Atlantic ave. station, they arrested the stepmother after they found that she had banged Madelin's head against a table, bitten her fingers burned with an electric iron. Mrs.

Mangino, helped into court by another woman, denied that she had inflicted the injuries. Her lawyer could not be present, and his representative asked that bail be made as low as possible. Magistrate Eilperin, branding the case "unthinkable and said: "I'll make the bail as high 4s I can. If it were not for her condition I would have her lodged in jail." He fixed bail at $7,500. CITY RECOGNIZED $1.50 CARPENTER SCALE; UNIONS SAY Report Admitted at Hearing Shows Workers Won Point.

Contractors Hit Evidence. Over the objections of John F. Collins, attorney, representing a group of contractors at the hearing in the Municipal Building today before Deputy Controller Frank J. Prial into alleged violations by subway contractors of the Prevailing Rate of Wages law, Mr. Prial admitted into the evidence on behalf of the union a report showing that the city has recognized $1.50 an hour as the prevailing wage to be paid to city employed carpenters.

The report, which was the result of an examination by William J. Parrell, dated September 21, 1928, approved the application of one Nicolo Apostolico and 25 others to be paid the difference between the wages they received from June 1, 1923, to Deceniber 31, 1926, and the wages paid to more than 90 percent of the carpenters in the city. Mr. Collins' objectors were based on the grounds that the men mentioned in the report were doing a different type of work than those mentioned in the present union complaint, that the contractors were not a party to the previous ing and that a settlement of claims by the Controller of men doing carpenter work was not for the type of work being done by their employees in the subways. The specific complaints taken up today were against the Oakdale Contracting Company and the Carleton Company, Inc.

It was brought out that both contractors paid the men between 80 cents and $1 an hour.
