(C. COMMERCE CHAMBER JOINS FIGHT TO OUST GARBAGE NUISANCE Send Questionnaire to Other Cities and Have Experts Examine Staten Island Plant. Another attempt to free the city from the malodorous garbage scandal and get an answer to the riddle: Why is New York paying $365,000 0 year to dispose of its garbage while other cities are having it done and reaping a profit besides? is to be made--this time by the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce. Mayo Fesler, secretary of the Chantber, said today that questionnaire is being prepared and shortly be "will sent by that organization to twentyfive of the leading cities of the country seeking information 011 the methods and cost of their garbage disposal. From his own experience as secretary of the Civic League of Cleveland, Ohio, for many prior coming to Brooklyn, Mr.

Fesler has been able to impress upon the members of the Chamber of Commerce the tremendous waste, to say the least, of the methods employed by the Hylan Administration in paying at the rate of $365,000 a year for a garbage disposal while the Cleveland treasury is enriched by from $40,000 to $60,000 a year from the sale of the valuable byproducts resulting from the reduetion of the refuse. "Cleveland has been doing this for the past 12 or 14 years," said Mr. Fesler, "and Cleveland is a city of only 700,000 population. The profit to New York City, with ten times that population, should be correspondingly greater." Experts to Examine Staten Island Plant. The Chamber of Commerce will get data on the comparative cost of the incinerator and the reduction methods of disposal.

It will also employ experts to visit the abandoned. Staten Island reduction plant and mak: an examination of the machinery there and find out what it would cost to put that plant in shape to operate once more. The estimates of the cost given by Mayor Hylan in his public statements have ranged widely, Speaking to the members of the Men's Club of the Second Unit. ian Church. last night, at Clinton and Congress on1 the question of "Municipal Efficiency," Mr.

Fesler said that we could not hope to have efficiency in city offices until we secure a permanent and an exert service. He presented figures showing the very marked increase in the cost of the city government in the -ast ten years, and declared that the only effective method of reducing taxes is by getting more for the money we spend. He said "municipal activities will not be decreased because the people will not permit it. Instead of struggling to reduce the amount of taxes collected, the effort should be spent on securing better He cited the Street Cleaning Department in New York as an illustration of inefficiency. In the Borough of Brooklyn there is only one station where the garbage can be delivered by the wagons, that being near Wallabout Basin.

Garbage wagons travel, in some instances, eight or nine miles. This more than doubles what the cost of collecting the garbage should be. The wastefulness of the present city garbage and ash removal contracts was emphasized also in a report submitted by the health and sanitation committee to the Board of Directors of the Chamber Tuesday night. Regarding the latter the committee expressed the opinion that the city had "permitted its hands to be tied by neglecting to provide for this street cleaning work early in the By waiting until within a few weeks of the expiration of the present contract the city is hardly in a position to protect itself, the committee pointed out. from the 250 per cent.

Elkton, December 19-The Johnson family occupied the witness stand during the session yesterday of the court which is trying Charles H. Johnson, former bank teller, for the murder of Maj.

William R. King, the Army engineer, at Aberdeen, Md. There were several dramatic 110- ments a during the day. Twice the prisoner was called upon' to re-ers ct the scene when the shot was fired that ended Maj. King's life.

These realistic scenes and were given with Attorneys Rob-! inson Carver as actors when direct eamination was being made, and with Attorney Clayton and Stenographer Bowerman when the prisoner Mrs. was Johnson under, took cross-examination. part. Three incidents were given in Johnson's testimony which the defense held as reasons for his ordering Maj. King to leave his home.

On one occasion, Miss Osborne, who is a ward of the Johnson's. was sitting upon al couch in their home and Maj. King, entering the room sat beside her and patted her hand. A pair of pajamas belonging to Maj. Horan were left in the Johnson home to be sent to him.

Maj. King suggested, according to the testimony, that Miss Osborne put her name in the coat SO that Mrs. Horan would become angry. Upon another occasion it was testified. Maj.

King entered the bedroom of Mrs. Johnson, where she and Miss Osborne were sitting. He asked Mrs. Johnson to thread hi needle for him. This was mentioned at the dinner table that evening and Johnson, it was testified, became angry.

Mrs. Johnson in her testimony said King was always agreeable and polite to her and to Miss Esther 03- borne. MRS. PAYNE FAVORS PRIVATE R.R. OWNERS Says Government Control of Transportation Is Inefficient.

Stifles Initiative. One of the topics of current interest upon Mrs. Jessica Lozier Payne touched in her talk this morning at the Academy of Music was railroad ownership. Government vs. private control, she said, resolved itself into a parallel between paternalism, which is a survival of Prussian autocracy, and individual initiative.

Individual thought and energy has been the basis of all development of industry in this country. Government control, on the other hand, tends toward inefficiency because competition and financial responsibility have been removed. The subject is complex and must be approached with an open mind. "This war may prove," she concluded, "the laboratory in which the questions of Government ownerand control are put to the acid test." Mrs. Payne also discussed the probability of a labor crisis in the country and expressed the opinion that there is bound to be an interim of uncertainty during the readjustment of war plants to a peace A serious crisis would be brought about by 8.

long period of unemployment, but there need be 110 unemployment of labor if the wage question can be satisfactorily adjusted. The Government is doing its part to insure the absorption of discharged soldiers into civilian activities and Mrs. Payne commended the agricultural projects lined by Secretary Lane whereby lions of acres of waste land will be reclaimed for the country and disabled soldiers rehabiliated at the same time. The entrance of women into industry on a large scale and the fact that the Child Labor Law has been United declared unconstitutional by the States Supreme Court, complicate the situation, she said. In order that the honors conferred upon our soldiers for bravery in this war may described not gO unrecognized.

A new judiciary slate for the bench appointments in Kings County that Governor-elect Smith and Mayor Hylan will have to hand out after January 1 was in evidence among Brooklyn Democrats today. It read as follows: For County Judge--Either Justice A.

V. B. Voorhees or Justice Arthur Salmon, of the Special Sessions bench. For Magistrates Representative Harry Howard Dale and Peter Huberty. Dor the post in the Court of Special Sessions left open by the promotion of either Voorhees or Salmo -Magistrate Charles J.

Dodd. This would leave one magistracy open. possibly to be left dangling before some of the disappointed ones as the "last hope." County Leader McCooey did not seem to be at all enthusiastic over the slate and when asked about it said that the organization had recommended no one yet. Another candidate, who is said to have big petition for himself in circulation, is Alderman Charles J. Haubert.

Huberty, one of the new names mentioned today, was formerly County Clerk and comes from the Bushwick section, the Mayor's home stamping ground. Another man from this section who is said to be in line for a job at the hands of "Neighbor Hylan" is Thomas Gowan of the 20th, who is after an appointment in the Corporation Counsel's office. At the same time it has developed that ex-Senator IT. H. Torborg.
