The police had been warned that "1,000 Communists were about to storm the Edison Building" and rushed more than 100 men armed with riot guns and tear Dombs to the scene. Mounted men in ,15 minutes scattered the "mob," Which proved to have a nucleus only about two dozen, and only four of them, headed by White, reached the building. After being driven away once White returned and was carried out of the area by his coat collar. The Brotherhood of Edison Employes issued a statement today disclaiming all responsibility for the dembnstration.

the Gowanus Canal. Being the Socialist candidate, Miss Mygatt knows that there is no danger of the Democratic-minded electorate of her adopted district (she lives in the 1st A. D. at 52 Garden Place) giving her the opportunity to be bored to death. Defeat at the polls will be no new experience, however, for Miss Mygatt.

With the gallant devotion of a loyal Socialist, she has run twice in Manhattan for Assemblyman with the same result she expects this year. Her Goal If Elected But if she were elected Sitting in her Garden Place apartment, which In its comfortable old-fashioned furnishings conveys no sense of the radical, Miss Mygatt enthusiastically discoursed on what she would work for if the fates and the voters sent her to Albany. She fully expects to be sent there some day "if the people ever wake up." Unemployment Insurance, birth control, child welfare, education and clean, honest, intelligent government are some of the things for which Miss Mygatt would work. They are that part of the legislature's proceedings that wouldn't bore her to death. She knows, though, they would not only have bored but annoyed her great-greatgrandfather, D.

To His Errors, Says Al Smith Attacks President for Trying 'to Scare People' Lauds Roosevelt Troy, Nov. 3 Alfred E.

Smith turned back toward New York City today after a speech last nlgnt in which he pleaded again for the election of Roosevelt and Garner and attacked President lloover for wnat he said was an attempt to "scare the people." Speaking before 1,700 in an old music hall. Smith said of the President: "I wonder what he is trying to do? He certainly Is not defending his administration, and he certainly Is not proposing anything new, but it seems to me that he is talking to scare the American people. nobody can do that. "It doesn't make any difference how bad the times may be, we are never going to fall Into that depth of despair, that anybody is going to scare us as to the future of this country," he said. Cheer for Roosevelt Amplifiers carried Smith's words to a crowd in the street.

The audience cheered lustily at each mention of Governor Roosevelt. "Now, I never had any doubt about the Democratic cause," Smith said, "and I never entertained for a moment a doubt about the success of the Democratic ticket but if perchance some doubt did creep Into my mind, it was thoroughly dispelled when I listened to President Hoover at Madison Square Garden. "What hope is there of getting a President to acknowledge that he was in error? He Is going to back up everything he did to the last ditch, no matter how wrong it may hp Qnri nrVinf nUnnn 1.

Borah Answers Smith on Tariff; Hits Democrats Craigmont, Idaho, Nov. 3 () Senator William E. Borah, Idaho Republican, blamed Democratio Senators for making the Smoot-Hawley tariff extend beyond agricultural products, in a speech here last night.

Answering charges of former Gov. Alfred E. Smith of New York, that he was indirectly responsible for the tariff because of his insistence on a special session of Congress, Senator Borah said: "This 'Idaho potato' fSmith had so referred to Borah) was not entirely to blame for what happened. If the Smoot-Hawlcy tariff bill nad been limited to agricultural products. It would have been as I wanted it." It was extended beyond these products, he declared, "by reason of Governor Smith's friends in the Senate not mentioning names.

Sternly opposed to passage of the so-called "bonus bill," he declared: "We will be asked to pay two billion and a half dollars in the next Congress for the so-called bonus. You go home and figure out what that will mean."

Z. GOLDBERG I PRESIDENT. MACHADO took his Cuban subjects for an airing the other day. He had them go to the polls and elect members to Congress and some local officers he had already selected for them. A Cuban citizen, going to vote reminds one of a criminal going with a guard to his mother's funeral.

Both are free for the moment. Ma-chado always restores the constitution for election day. Still, both are restrained. The Cuban can vote just as freely as the criminal can make away from the guard to whom he is handcuffed. And both are helping to bury something that is dear to them.

Machado's reign of terror in Cuba would do credit to pre-war Turkey. Those leaders of the opposition who delay fleeing the country are put In prison. Those who cannot be kept in prison are done away with by the hand of an assassin. Terror begets terror. And the opposition Is learning from the President how to play the political game.

Within the past few months the chief of the national Secret Police as well the President of the Cuban Senate have been murdered while lesser lights are being butchered by the hundreds. An Economic Disaster Meanwhile the country lies In economic ruins. The exports to the United States in 1931 were less than one-third of what they had been In preceding This year will show an even larger falling off, with a very unfavorable trade balance. Cuba will never return to prosperity on her sugar, for growers in Hawaii, Louisiana and the middle west are fighting to keep her cane out of this country. The island must change its economy or fall Into even more abject poverty.

Diversified agriculture undoubtedly would prove the best remedy. But President Machado is little concerned with all that. In the words of the Cuban Ambassador to Mexico, Senor Marquaz Sterling, who recently he Is "castigating the hunger and nakedness" of the Cuban people in order to retain the "benevolence of bankers." POLITICAL-MINDED POET LAUREATE EGYPT Is mourning the loss of her poet laureate. All Shawkl Bey. He was the foremost poet In the Arabic tongue, but he chose to be Egyptian, rather than Moslem, national rather than religious.

He sang of the Sphinx of the Nile, of Tut-ankh-amen and Cleopatro instead of Khadijah, the rich widow who married her camel driver and turned him into the Prophet Mohammed, or Rabla, whom the Sufis called Mother of God. Unlike this Rabia, who would remain at prayer all night long, closing her eyes for only a brief moment at daybreak. All Shawkl was politically minded. Even the loves of Cleopatra he saw as a patriotic duty, the desperate attempt of a devoted queen to save her country from Roman domination. He wrote poems for state events and epigrams on all occasions! One of them runs as follows: "Between patience and cow-ardce there is a bridge as thin as a hair." NATHANIEL HAWTHORNE WAS NO SPENDTHRIFT N' ATHANIEL HAWTHORNE'S expenses for one term at Bowdoln amounted to 114.49, his granddaughter, Hildegarde Hawthorne, tells us in her biography of the great writer.

That was not quite so little as John Oreenleaf Whlttier paid. When he figured out his college expense he was a quarter to the good. But then Hawthorne was a reckless fellow. His expense list included not only 45 cents for damages but full 20 cents in fines for "unnecessary walking on Sundays." For all that, both men did well by their education. In fact, their "stuff" is nurt of the education our boys get in college for which they pay ever so much more.

Which goes to show that the quality of educa tion may not be measured in dollars and cents nor in good behavior Jcritza Will Sing Salome at the Met. Mme.

Her books, written in conjunction with Miss Frances Witherspoon, are on religious topics and her mind, alert, sharp and analytical, sees an aspect of religion reflected in Socialism the Golden Rule, "Take people like my greatgrandfathers, for Instance, who belonged to a privileged class, after all.

They were God-fearing, but not God-loving men. If they had been God-loving they would have written down some of the love they heard about on Sunday into the laws of our country, and child labor, unemployment and other social evils might have been abolished by now." This country and its politics would be a great deal better off. Miss Mygatt believes, if the so-called professional politicians were discarded and their places filled by artists, writers, housewives and other so-called political amateurs.

At the same time he announced the abandonment of the plan in its original form "due to a decided change for the worse in general business and financial conditions" and the substitution of a modified form which is now before the Banking Department awaiting action. The modified plan calls for court approval of a liquidating corporation on the basis of the $5,000,000 to $6,000,000 in subscriptions on hand, conditional upon the sponsors obtaining $7,000,000 in paid-in subscriptions Within 60 days of the court order. Urges Quick Action "My feeling," said Untermyer, "has been and is, as frankly explained to the Superintendent, that inasmuch as the ultimate duty and responsibility of acting upon the plan rests with the court, the depositors are entitled to have the Superintendent act, subject to the approval of the court.

"Whether he will now. do or will himself assume the heavy responsibility of rejecting the plan, rests with him and with the Banking Board, to which he has submit--ted the problem for its advice and which, I am told, has acted favorably upon it and directed counsel for the superintendent to prepare the petition for submission to the court. "I have been urging and awaiting definite action in answer to that appeal. If the superintendent should, contrary to my understanding, decide to take upon himself the responsibility for rejecting the modified plan, it will have to be abandoned. "There is nothing now to be done except to await the decision of the Superintendent and his advisers.

We have been awaiting that decision for days and are now Impatiently expecting it almost hourly. The moment it comes the depositors will be advised." Fights Tuberculosis Among Porto Ricans Health Commissioner Shirley W. Wynne announced today the start of an intensive campaign against the prevalence of tuberculosis and the causes of high infant mortality in the Porto Rican inhabited sections of Brooklyn and Manhattan. Dr. Wynne said there were 45,000 Porto Ricans residing in lower Harlem and in the Red Hook and Navy Yard sections of Brooklyn.

Maxine Hart Finds Bargain Dresses By MAXINE HART These questions were asked by the readers of this column and by the members of the Patriotic Order of Americans, Camps 31 and 7, Baptist Home Circle of Baptist Temple, and the Borough Park Community Church Women's Guild, who This is indicated by the bold robbery of two ci' ens in brightly lighted sections of the borough with hundreds passing nearby and at comparatively early hours of the night. The most recent was Saturday night, when the manager of a S-and-10-cent store was held -up in Regent Place. Defiant of Police Ignoring possible police or pedestrian Interference, two armed men walked up behind James J. Petrie of 700 Ocean Ave. as he was passing along Regent Place after having locked up the F.

W. Woolworth store at 1022 Flatbush just around the corner. A score of persons were emerging from the nearby Kings Theater when Petrie felt something at his back, accompanied by the command: "Step into that doorway and dont make any noise." He obeyed. Inside the doorway one of the two men tied his wrists together with a wire in front of him. "Where is the key to the store?" he was asked.

When told it was in his side pants pocket, one extracted it, adding: "Now, you walk on back to the store! We'll be Just behind you with a 'gat' trained on the small of your back. Make any noise and you'll be a ead manager." Although Petrie made no effort to hide the wire holding his wrists and, although they walked two blocks through the heart of the Flatbush shopping district, not a single persons of the hundreds he passed noted he was manacled. Forced to Open Safe When the store was reached, the man ith the key opened it and the manager was hustled Inside. Here he was losed from his bonds and ordered to open the safe. The taciturnity which had marked the thugs' conversation up to this moment then left the robbers.

One, whom the manager described as being of "obvious foreign extraction," asked: "How much you got there this week?" "Between $1,600 and $2,000," Petrie replied. "That's good," the thug continued. "You know we've been watching you for a long time. We was going to knock you off last week but you closed up earlier than usual." When the safe was opened and the money tucked in the gunmen's pockets, the manager was ordered not to make any outcry for five minutes and the thugs quickly disappeared in the crowd in Flatbush Ave. Other Robbery Braxrn The other robbery, which showed a disregard for the police, was the attack upon Louis C.

Wills, prominent Brooklyn attorney and president of the Greater New York-Suffolk Title and Guarantee who was robbed of $255 Oct. 21 while walking with his wife in Prospect Park near Grand Army Plaza. As In the Petrie Job, the gunmen approached their victims from behind, sticking a revolver into the back of the lawyer and ordering him and his wife to march to a nearby bench. That these thugs were not the same ones which held up Mr. Petrie was learned when Mr.

Wills declared that "both were apparently well educated Americans." Little conversation took place. One failed to speak while the other only demanded Wills' wallet. On receiving It, the pair fled across the bridle path up a soft embankment where the maa with th gua fccsl- Madden to Serve 8 Months More, Savs Parole Board Holds He Associated With Known Criminals iitVio-lation of Stipulations Ossining, Nov. 3 Owen Madden, reputed New York beer magnate must stay in Sing Sing Prison eight months more as a parole violator, the State Parole Board decided here yesterday, after a hearing. Madden was convicted in 1915 of manslaughter in New York City.

He had more than three years to serve when he was paroled in 1923. His alleged illicit activities led to his being ordered back to prison and he surrendered on July 6 last. The board decided that he must remain in Jail for a year from the time he surrendered. At the end of the year his conduct in prison and his plans for the future will determine whether he will be "The Parole Board has contlued its investigation and finds that Madden has 'continued to associate with known criminals and to conduct himself in a manner which const! tutes violation of parole," the ruling said. Nevada Finds Gold And Silver Scarce Reno, Nov.

3 OP) Nevada, whose gold and silver mines once poured out millions, went about its business today with very little gold and silver available as officials sought to straighten out the State's tangled banking situation.

That capture of these robbers was made impossible by the red tape which surrounded his reporting the matter was the caustic statement of Mr.

Wills, who is ft inkly bitter over the way he was handled both by the first policeman he saw and his sub sequent treatment at the 76th Pre cinct station. From the time the robbery was committed until the police made any effort to use the radio alarm system 50 minutes was lost, according to Mr. Wills. This was spent in giving full details to three separate police officers, 10 minutes "wasted in trying to raise the sta-tionhouse from a park post telephone and a long watt for a trolley car." "Here was an excellent chance for the police to use the radio system," Mr. Wills said today.

"One of the men had on a tan suit which could be recognized easily, the other had Jet black hair and wore no hat. "They were fleeing through the park and It would take some time for them to get out. Their shoes would have to be covered with mud as they climbed up a bank of very soft mud after the robbery.
