In all, 140 exhibits from non-professional Brooklyn 11 ap 11 artists have been hung in the lllgCrSOll LallS i City Government 4 Washington, Sept. 9. ANTILLE ANTICS The big question on the inside here has not been whether we should go into Cuba, but when we will ever be able to get out of there.

That is the secret worry of those directing our policy. They have known from the first that some sort of intervention would be necessary. What they fear chiefly is that the disorderly stepchild will be hanging around until dooms day. 1 This thought will be dominant in developing our future policy Every effort will be made to go into Cuba only as deep as necessary with a View to getting out as soon as possible. Even so, Mr.

Roosevelt and his confidential Cuban advisers fear the worst. A RMY GAME The big boys believe that where our Ambassador Welles made his mistake was in overlooking the Army. He played ball with the A. B. C.

crowd but neglected the men in uniform. Forme President Machado never fell into such an error. Sometimes he could not pay officials, but he always paid the army. He paid it veil. That is why he remained in power so long.

WARNING Before Mr. Welles went to Havana a certain diplomat here called on him at the State Department and confidentially paid: "The Machado Government is not a good one. There is much to be said against it. But it is a government and an orderly one. I want to warn you that if you put Machado out, you cannot get a stable government in Cuba." Probably all parties will deny it now, but the truth is that warning came from Machado's Ambassador here, Senor Don Oscar B.

Cinta. That is probably the reason so little attention was paid to it. SLIPS Navy Secretary Swanson spilled the beans all over the White House doorstep in announcing his trip to Havana. -J Coney Island, Bay Ridge and other ocean front districts will bo the first sections of Brooklyn can-vased in the house-to-house campaign to enroll consumers under the Blue Eagle. The canvass In Coney Island, Miss Mary E.

Dillon, Brooklyn, chlarman of the consumer enroll ment section of the NRA, said to day, will get under way on Monday. It won't be started In the other sections of the borough until the following Monday. Mrs. Henry Hesterberg, wife of the Borough President, was the first to sign a pledge yesterday in a bootli opened at NRA consumer headquar ters in Oppenheim. Collins Co; 485 Fulton St.

Booths where con sumers can sign up were opened in all the department stores at tha same time. Mrs. Hesterberg was followed closely by Mrs. Alexander Hamilton Fraser, prominent social leader and community worker. i Under the leadership of Miss Dillon, the women's committee will operate hundreds of booths throughout Brooklyn.

The committee hopes to enroll about 1,000.000 consumer here. Mrs. Jane Smlh Cramer, attorney" today was appointed vice chairman of the Brooklyn NRA division. Mrs. Cramer lives at 613 Ocean Ave.

and has her law officq at 105 Court St. She has been active In borough affairs, belongs toj about 15 civic and other organizations, and In 1930 was secretary of the Cleaner Brooklyn Committee of, the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce. Although men and women will be) asked to sign, Miss Dillon pointed out that the drive is being con ducted bly women and will be directed toward women because, "women do 80 percent of the retail buying. Similar drives are to conducted In all parts of the city and nation.

Roosevelt had intended to be very cagey about it. He was trying to promote the idea that the cruiser Indianapolis was going on a jaunt to the Pacific, not Cuba. The idea was to let it get down in Cuban waters and then suddenly order it to put in at Havana. Apparently Swanson had not been properly cautioned to keep still. He strolled out of the White House and newsmen questioned him: "Are you going to Havana?" "Sure," Swanson replied.

"When will you get there?" "Tomorrow." (A naval aide broke in here to explain it required two days to reach Havana.) At any rate the cat was out. Newspapers emblazoned the yarn cross page one. in a city-wide scholarship contest inaugurated by the league to aid deserving artists. In the opinion of seasoned daubers, many of the paintings and sketches, coming from the brushes of wholly untrained or only partially trained amateurs, represent a refreshing novelty. Norse Landscape A Norwegian landscape which attracted considerable attention when the show opened last week Is the work of a Brooklyn ironworker, Bernhardt Berntscn, 33, of 957 72d St.

Berntsen posed for one of the figures in the proscribed Rivera murals at Rockefeller and recently has added broadcasting to his avocational pursuits. He is a native ol Norway. Another Norwegian is exhibiting some satirical sketches which have drawn favorable attention from the critics. He Is Einaar Larssen, 22-year-old hairdresser of 4412 5th Ave. A snow scene which stands out among the exhibits was done by Charles Ernest Tamkin, a Scotch letter carrier, now living at 885 Kent Ave.

Police Contribution Not all of the Identities of all the exhibitors has been made known. A "Modern Madonna'1 Is the work, so far as the League Is concerned, of "a Brooklyn policeman." Commissioner Bolan, It seems, didn't want It noised about that his men were going in for pigments and delicate nuances during their off hours. Another water color is the work of the anonymous secretary of an anonymous art critic. Among the admitted exhibitors are John P. Kump, an elevator operator, of 276 Humboldt David Cuthbert, a plumber, of 265 73d Mischa Sumner of 118 Neptune Modest Lyzeaskl, a worker in the Jewish Hospital, and John J.

Morrison and Edmona Yaghjlan. Winners are to be announced on Sept. 18, two days after the exhibit closes. History's Worst The importance of "whole-hearted co-operation of Brooklyn voters" in the fusion movement in the forthcoming city elections was stressed by speakers at the first Pall meeting of the Kings County Republican Club of the 5th A. D.

last night at the clubhouse, 202 Patchen Ave. Prominent among the speakers at the meeting were Raymond V. In-gersoll, fusion candidate for Borough President, and Maurice P. Davidson, chairman of the City party. Ingersoll declared that the "present administration 16 more wicked than any other In the history of the present century, not only because of its disregard of principles of common decency and morality, but because of the new menace of racketeering." W.

Arthur Cunningham, candidate for controller, attributed present tax evils to the city's "unlimited power of taxation" and scored the "incompetence" of the city's financial officials. Mortimer H. Michaels, candidate for the Assembly on the Republican ticket from the 5th A. presided at the meeting. Other speakers Included Walter E.

Corwln, former Collector of Internal Revenue, who Is candidate for sheriff on the fusion ticket, and Ernest C. Wagner, candidate for register of Kings County. 23d Democrats Fete Schorcnstein The 23d Assembly District Club, and its friends, 1,000 strong, assembled at Trommer's Hall, Bush-wlck Ave. and Conway last night for the annual "Hyman Schoren-stein Night," held in honor of the district leader and Commissioner of Records. Among the honor guests were Mayor John P.

O'Brien, John M. McCooey, county Democratic leader, and M. Maldwin Pertlg, Democratic nominee for president of the Board of Aldermen. "Absent guests" Included Grover Whalen, city chairman of the NRA, who addressed the gathering by means of televoice, and Governor Herbert H. Lehman whose congratulatory letter to Mr.

Schorcnstein was construed, among other things, as a general indorsement of the Tammany ticket.

Greenpoint Hails NRA With Parade And Mass Meeting 0 Jiislico MacCrate Warns Against Merc Lip Service -Sweatshops Scored Flag-draped streets, blaring bands and a parade of more than 1,000 people was the recognition given the NRA last night by residents of Greenpoint. The parade, which started at Manhattan Ave.

and Dupont was made up of veteran organizations and auxiliaries, political clu'rs, student and civic groups, and included among its marchers Supreme Court Justice John Mc-Crate, Deputy Commissioner of Public Works Peter J. McGuinness, Margaret O'Connor, co-leader of the Greenpoint Democratic organiza-t'm; Richard Wright, leader of the Alpha Republican Club, and Mrs. nna Anderson, co-leader of the Alpha Republican Club. A mass meeting at which the working of the NRA was explained by speakers from the Manhattan Bureau was held at the clubhouse of Greenpoint Post 241, American Legion, following the parade. A pica for tolerance and justice in its administration was made by Supreme Court Justice McCrate.

He described the NRA as an attempt to work out the Golden Rule, and urged people to remember the havoc wrought by the "super-patriot during the World War, who gave lip service to his country by denouncing others, but did nothing worthwhile himself. Frederick Rich, a srvalrrr from the Manhattan NRA Speakers' Bu reau, declared: "Many commodities are being Sold todav at a nrir.r lrra'pr than rhp cast of manufacture. It is to re store business houses and factories which have been suffering from Unfair comDetitinn. mirh the sweatshops have brought about, tnai me bka was he declared.

E. F. A White House officials went aflutter when they heard about it. The way Swanson told the story left the impression that the President was Bending him down there to handle the Cuban question. That was NOT true.

The fact is Swanson intended to go to the Pacific Coast on the Indianapolis. The President personally informed him that he would have to postpone his trip because the Indianapolis was going to Havana. Bwanson replied that was all right; he would merely stop off in Havana with the ship on the way to the Coast. After much buzzing around, the Whit House issued a statement asserting the Secretary was going to Cuba on his own initiative and not for the President. QUIPS The inner circle boys are swapping flip remarks about Welles and his Cuban troubles.

One is: "Welles was sitting on his laurels when he encountered a thistle." Another: "Welles hit a home run but forgot to touch second." Also: "They will have to change the name of Welles Street to Slip." Welles won't mind. He can take it. SMILES Mr. Roosevelt has an unusual way of masking his worries behind an appearance of good cheer. Callers were surprised to see him outwardly unperturbed recently when he had Cuba, Henry Ford and the coal code (three most per-plexing problems) plaguing him for solution.

Newsmen have noted this phase of his character continuously. They see him twice a week. He is now a somewhat more serious man than when he held his first press conference. He does not joke and smile as much as he did, but he still Jokes and smiles, which is more than most people are doing in Washington these days. NOTES Mr.

Roosevelt has been relaxing recently by reading such a thrilling book as "The History of Bath, Maine" Most of his reading concerns the sea, ships and seaports, particularly the historical No one has paid much attention to the charge that Professor is an adviser to a sugar company having small Cuban Interests. Berle's desire to be impartial is respected by his associates in the brain trust. Officials knew of his connection when they sent him to Cuba as Financial Emissary, 'If I WW isJ plea for 200 workers to call on merchants not signed under the NRA code was made by Dr. Ignatius Brynes of the Brooklyn NRA. Other speakers Included MaJ.

Frank Willetts, U. S. Alderman Walter F. Farrar, Cameron King and Raymond Fleck of NRA headquarters in Manhattan, Edward A. O'Ncil, chairman of the committee In charge of arrangements, presided at the meeting.

Joseph Bonomo was vice chairman. Other committee members included Joseph A. Kuhl, Edwin Duffy and Mrs. Emily Halll-day. Hunt Married Man In Deatli of Girl A Brooklyn married man was being sought for questioning by police today in connection with the death of Peggy O'Neal, 35, in Belle-vue Hospital on Sept.

4, two days lifter she was found uncoascious In her gas-filled apartment at 152 W. 49th Manhattan. Although the autopsy report said only that Miss O'Neal's death was caused by bilateral softening of the brain superinduced by gas poisoning, police pushed an investigation because of a letter from Miss O'Neal's brother, Paul, of Great Bend, Kan. The letter said, In part: "Several weeks ago my sister wrote me that her life had been threatened and that if I didn't hear from her to have the police investigate." Police quoted hospital attendants as saying that an unr named man and a number of liquor bottles were found in the woman's apartment when they were called there on Sept. 2.

day. planetary combination of the Moon square Neptune, with Venus parallel to Uranus, makes it very advisable to use extreme caution in speech and action, and to be very careful in travel. Avoid all risks toward the late evening, and be very careful that you do not give offease to others by tactless remarks. A great deal of self-control and poise is required around midnight and the early morning Monday.

M. Carpenter, flight commander, and the 10 other officers and 25 enlisted men who made the flight, navy chieftans sped their congratulations.
