Progressives Win Science Group Battle New Officers Promise to Stress Liberalism American Institute By JOHN J. O'NEILL (Science Editor of The Eagle) The 'American Institute, entering the 103d year of its history, is slated to find itself in a robust state vi fruitful effort in fostering science and industry as a result of the annual election held yesterday. The progressive element won a victory over the conservative element, thus bringing a close a strenuously waged battle that started last September.

The progressives, whose candidate for president was A. Cressy Morrison, polled 187 votes and the comservatives. whose standard bearer was Oscar W. Ehrhorn, polled 141 votes. The election was held in the rooms of the institute in Fisk Building, at Broadway and Manhattan.

Considered Mandate "This victory," said Mr. Morrison, newly elected president, last night, consider a mandate from the members of the American Institute to its newly elected officers to proceed immediately with plans for the rehabilitation of the instiand the restoration of its leadersnip in fostering science and industry. "It is also a vindication by the members of the stand taken by the progressives that the American Institute must not under any circumstances be permitted to lapse into a moribund state of innocuous quiescence, with which it was threatened. "Our stand has been in favor of making the American Institute function to the fullest extent possible and of enlarging its financial resources so that it would be selfsustaining. There no possible way of keeping the expenditure of che institute within its endowed Income even if its activities were to a minimum.

"There was no avenue of financial retreat open. There was, and is, no course open except courageous advance. This is the objective which will be pursued by the American Institute now that the membership has given the new officers the responsibility for administering its af- fairs." Officers Elected The officers elected last night and who took over the reins immediately are: President, A. Cressy Morrison. Vice President, Dr.

Otis W. Caldwell. Secretary, Dr. William Crocker. Treasurer, Alfred Knight.

The new officers and board members will meet within the next few days and work out arrangements for an immediate revival of activities. Cause of Rift The cause of among the members of the American Institute then was the curtailment last September of the program for the popularization of science, which has been planned and was being carried out. The trustees, under the presidency of E. F. Murdock, withdrew the budget.

The reason given by the trustees was that the program would cause 8 deficit. They took the stand that the institute will not engage in any activities that would cause its expenditure to exceed the income from its invested funds and from current receipts. Deficit Nothing New A deficit was nothing new in the annals of the institute. It had been operating under one for years. Three years ago an extension of activities was planned in order to increase current income and to lay a foundalion for an expansion of its resources.

W. Hutchins, director of the institute, working with a committee of business, professional and scientific men, under the chairmanship of Dr. H. H. Sheldon, head of the physics department of New York University, carried out the program which was rapidly achieving the goal of returning the American Institute to its former prestige and leadership.

An increase in merbership from 150 to nearly 600 resulted. Progressives Urge Change When the trustees shut down on this program the group which was dubbed "scientists" and "progressives" by the trustees sought to have the trustees consider their decision and stage plans for an enlargement of the financial resources so that the income would be sufficient to permit operating without a deficit. hTe trustees refused to meet with the insurgents, and President Murdock refused to call a special meeting of the members to consider the situation when a petition signed by 65 members was submitted. Resulted in Court Action This resulted in court action which was dragged along until the calling of the special meeting brought it on the same day as the regular quarterly meeting. A seven-hour battle ensued, out of which the "scientists," or "pro- gressives," drew a victory and named the nominating committee.

Won Election The ticket named by this committee was the one which won in yesterday's election.

Isnardi, who acted as chairman of the meeting, the voters declared: "As Americans of Italian extraction we strongly resent as absolutely unfounded the charge of those assuming without authority to speak for Italian-American voters that the Republican party is prejudiced against our race. "A mere handful of so-called sci-Italian-American Republicans," the statement goes on, "moved solely. by the desire to secure for themselves political patronage, have formed The statement goes on to say that the Democratic party itself has been guilty of prejudice against people of Italian extraction, and gives as substantiation the statement that "at the time that Michael Laura was the candidate for Sheriff on the Democratic ticket his party openly knifed him because of his Italian origin." Laura, it goes on to say, was the only Democrat on the County ticket who was defeated. Transit Body Told Danger in 1-Man Trolley Hearings Reopened on Safeguards After Court Upsets Prior Rulings Dangers and disadvantages of man trolley operation were set forth by W. O.

Smith, supervising: transit inspector of the Transit Commission, when the Commission reopened the question at hearings yesterday. The Commission a year ago made an order requiring certain safeguards bud it was upset by the courts on the ground that the hearings had been insufficient. The Commission, it was admitted, had the authority to make such regulations. Mr. Smith enumerated among the tion: chief objections to one-man operaIt made easier violation of the anti-smoking rule, crowding of the single door by standing passengers, thereby slowing operation, and too many duties imposed on one man.

He held that no car seating more than 36 should be operated by one man. In one-man cars, motormen, he' declared, often made change for. passengers while the car is in mo-" tion. This is unavoidable, he said, unless trolley is to be held up while the fares are collected at heavy loading points. Operation is further retarded, he said, because the motorman, making change and collecting nickels, is unable to take advantage of changes in traffic.

lights. He maintained that the interlocking of doors with the brake or troller, installation of the "dead man's button" device and rear emergency exit are necessary safeguards on all one-man cars. Lawyers for transit companies asked time to study schedules of delays caused by one-man operation before cross-examining, and the hearing was adjourned to Feb. 24.
