CITY TO RUN CARS ON W'MSBURG BRIDGE WITHIN FEW DAYS Tryout on Tuesday and Aldermanic Appropriation Will Enable Regular Service. Municipal operation of the Williamsburg Bridge local line will be started within the next few days, Commissioner Grover A. Whalen of the De-partment of Plant and Structures announced yesterday. "There will be no more delay in starting operation on this line," he said. "The city's cars would have been running over the Williamsburg Bridge long ago had it not been for the fact the Board of Aldermen was unable make an appropriation that, in special revenue bonds of $50,000 to set the line going under municipal ownership.

The department needs that amount of money as capital for the operation of the cars. There will be no trouble in getting the money early in January, when the Aldermen will have their new fund of $2,000,000 to darw upon." More than a year ago the city chased 40 new cars for the Williams- burg Bridge local line. A contract has been entered into with the Brooklyn Edison Company for supplying motive power. Mr. Whalen said that next Tuesday the line would be given a 30 as to have everything in ship shape when actual operation by the city begins.

The fare will be 2 cents per ride, but if it found that a 1-cent fare will pay for the operating expenses and meet interest on the investment, the lower fare will be established. HOLD NEGRO FOR ATTEMPT AT ASSAULT AND ROBBERY Harry Jones, a negro, 30 years old and living at 179 Duffield was locked up in the Poplar st. station last night charged with attempted assault and robbery. He stoutly denied the accusation and said he was a victim of mistaken identity. Bernato Vitanglo, who deals in coal.

in small quantities, at 77 Lawrence told the police that he was entering his shop at 5:30 last night when a man who had been hiding behind the door sprang out at him and cried, "Hands up!" Another man appeared with a pistol and commanded him to give up his money. Vitangelo had $30 in his pocket, hardly earned money in these days of coal scarcity, and dauntlessly made a fight for it. He made such a bellow as well that his would-be assailants took to their heels. Vitangelo followed the one, who made for the Fintbush ave. extension.

Patrolman Fiarito, of the Poplar st. precinct, intercepted Henry Jones. The coal man said Jones was one of the two men who had tried to get his money. Jones will be arraigned this morning in the Adams st. court.

SUDREAU-LEBAUDY FAMILY GO ABROAD Have Sold Jamaica Home, but Retain Westbury Estate. Before La Savoie sailed yesterday for Havre, a committee from the 350 passengers who came in on the liner last Wednesday gathered in the cabin of Commander Henri Boisson and presented him with a written testimonial for his seamanship exhibited throughout the recent tempestuous voyage west. They also gave him a bronze desk clock and a pair of bronze candlesticks. The Sudreau-Lebaudy family went back to France, but Sudreau the elder said that they return again in the spring. They had sold only the Jamaica residence and kept the one at Westbury, L.

I. He said that they would go to the south of France, on the Riviera, for the winter there manage financial matters of Mme. Lebaudy that needed attention. He said that the "American men are gentlemen, and I and my son have been well treated while here." The family occupied a suit de luxe on the liner and after going to their quarters Sudreau, the elder, was the only one to appear. He said that Mme.

Marguerite Sudeau-Lebaudy was to tired to come out or talk. Jac-1 queline Sudeau remained with her mother and her husband, SO photographers and interviewers were disap. pointed. MILLER PARDONS 2 ON LAST WORKDAY Still Doubts Advisability of Giving Power to State Board. (Special by Eagle Staff Correspondent.) Albany, Dec.

30-Governor Nathan L. Miller, after pardoning today two men who had been convited of manslaughter, made a statement to the press relative to the advisability of a special board of pardons for condemned men. "It is a very grave responsibility," said the Governor, "and I am not clear that it would in the long run be of advantage to have that duty performed by a board, even though in other States where they have pardon boards 1 believe it has worked very well." Governor Miller stated that the pardoning power was an executive function and to be held by some one directly responsible to the people. "Even if a board should be set up, I am satisfied that the Governor should have the final say," declared Governor Miller. The slayers released are Vincenzo D'Erme, convicted of murder in Montgomery County, and Giuseppe Guilano, convicted of the same crime in Wyoming County.

The former has served nine years and the latter nearly 12 years of a life term. In each case the trial judge expressed the view that a conviction of first degree manslaughter would have served the ends of justice. DR. SEVERANCE ON KLAN The Rev. Dr.

W'msburg Men Are Pleased. In Greenpoint proper the proposal made by Commissioner Grover A. Whalen for a new East River bridge, with the northern approach in lower Greenpoint, is greeted with anything but enthusiasm by real estate operators and other business men. Greenpoint didn't want a bridge at all, these men declared; and if a bridge is to be forced on them, they want the Brooklyn location to be more central than the one proposed the Commissioner along No. 4th and ending at the intersection of Metropolitan and Union aves.

Their opinion and the opinion of Greenpoint as a whole was expressed by William Stanley Miller, president of the Commerce Club of Greenpoint. "We're against a bridge of any kind," he said. "It is too expensive in money and the property it would have to use, and on the other hand does not give enough in the way of service. Our chief business street is Manhattan which is only three blocks from the waterfront. Any approach to a bridge really in Greenpoint would have to cut across this street and so take up a great deal of valuable ground.

"What we in Greenpoint do want. and have demanded for a long time, is a tunnel, would be less costly and answer all purposes much better. A tunnel could be linked up, in time, with the general subway system of the city. Greenpoint Not Interested in Bridge. "So far as Commissioner Whalen's proposed bridge is concerned, Greenpoint is not interested in it at all.

It would not do us any good. It is not really in Greenpoint, but in Williamsburg. Now, Wiliamsburg already has one bridge and the 14th st. Eastern District subway, which undoubtedly will some day be Greenpoint has neither of these, but it is apparently again to be treated as the step of the City." Nearer the site of the Brooklyn approach to the proposed bridge, however, the opinion was found to be very there unquestionably will develop isofavorable, even a enthusiastic. While lated opposition here and there to the exact location of the various new plazas and streets to be opened, the general plan met with approval only.

Philip Bender, president of the old Grand Street Board of Trade, said: "Yes, such a bridge fine--just the thing we'd want in this neighborhood. It would relieve the overload of traffic on Williamsburg Bridge and round out the transit facilities of that bridge and the new 14th st. -Eastern District subway when it is completed. The location of the approaches, both at this end and in Manhattan, are about as convenient as could be picked. Most of the business men in this vicinity will agree with me in that." Similarly, Eugene Rouff, president of the 13th A.

D. Taxpayers and Citizens Association, expressing unbounded approval. "We are all very much in favor of it here." he said. "It is one of the best things in the way of civic here advancement that has been attempted for a long time. It will give the needed outlets for our surplus traffic.

It is the best improvement started for years." The cost of the proposed new bridge has been estimated at about $42,000,000. At Department of Plant and Structures yesterday the following statistics were collected regarding the present bridges, which are interesting by way of comparison: Brooklyn Bridge--Opened May 24. 1883; type, suspension; maximum span, 1,505 feet; height above M. H. 0133 feet; cost of construction, cost of land, total cost, $25,094,577.

$5,974,809. Clark st. tunnel (I. R. 916.

Sixtieth st. (Queens Boro) tunnel (B. R. $6,639,023. Fourteenth- Eastern District tunnel R.

$6,639,023. Total cost of rapid transit tunnels paid for by the city, $23,278,546. The Joralemon st. tunnel (I. R.

the oldest in the subway system, cost the company approximately 000 and the city about total in round figures, $8,000,000. At the engineering department of the Transit Commission it was said yesterday that the construction cost of each one of these five tunnels would amount to almost twice the above figures at present time cost of labor and materials. FARMER, SON HELD FOR BOMB SLAYING Missile Mailed to Official Blew Off Arm, Killed Wife. (By the Associated Press.) Marshfield, Dec. 30-James Magnuson, a farmer, and his 18-yearold son were arrested today in connection with the mailing of a dynamite bomb to James A.

Chapman, County Commissioner. The bomb exploded while Mr. Chapman was opening the package, blowing off Mr. Chapman's left arm. Mrs.

Chapman died later from injuries she received. Magnuson, a Scandinavian settler, was of bitterest opponents of a draining attend project which Chapman, as County Commissioner, had sponsored. HIRSHFIELD RAPS ETTINGER In a letter to the editor of the New York Times criticising an editorial on school politics, Commissioner of Accounts David Hirshfield yesterday criticized William J. Ettinger, Super.ntendent of Schools. He charged that Dr.

Ettinger used political influence to obtain his office. HYLAN LAUDS HAMILTON Ir. accepting the resignation of Dr. James A. Hamilton, Secretary of Stateelcet, an Commissioner of Correction.

Fame of Brooklyn Poly, Spreads Throughout World In its own home boro, Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute is considered a local college. Its fame has evidently spread farther and more rapidly abroad throughout the world than it has here in Brooklyn, where it was founded, the second oldest technical institution in the country. Recent statistics from the registrar's office of the Institute show that men from Aquadillo High School, in Porto Rico: Donn Lubeck High, the institute of Saxonia, and Luberkertore, in Germany; Amsterdam High, in Holland; Institution of Lima, Peru; Fleet Technical, of Bulgaria; University of Cape of Good Hope, are now studying at the Polytechnic and form a strong argument against the prevalent rumors that Poly is becoming more and more a local college. MOVES TO FORCE DRY LEAGUE TO BARE ELECTION EXPENSES Col.

Gillett Gets Show-Cause Order Against New York AntiSaloonists. Albany, Dec. 30-An order directing the Anti-Saloon League of New York to appear before him Jan. 27 and show cause why it should not appoint a treasurer, file the designation as required by law, and then account for all money spent by its organization during the last primary and general elections campaign, was issued today by Supreme Court Justice Staley. The order of Justice Staley was issued upon the petition of several residents of headed by Col.

Ransom H. Gillett, an official of the Assocation Opposed to the National Prohibition Amendment. Colonel Gillett pointed out that the 'State law provides that when three or more persons act together in electing or defeating a political principle they constitute themselves into a political committee; that the first thing this committee must do is to select a treasurer and file the designation with the Secretary of State; and that within 20 days after a primary or general election the treasurer must account for all the money or equivalent used by the committee in the election or defeat of any candidate. Colonel Gillett alleged that the Anti-Saloon League of New York pub-. lished a paper known as the American Issue and from time to time sent out election literature advising the voters to vote for Governor Miller and against his Democratic opponent, Alfred E.

Smith, because of the latter's attitude on the Volstead Act, also sent out questionnaires to every candidate in the State. RADIO TALK ON "ADS" BY WM. H. RANKIN William H. Rankin, president of the William H.

Rankin Company, speaking last night through the Radio Station A American Telephone and Telegraph Company, said that the daily newspaper is one of the greatest forces for public good in American life. "And great as is the educational quality of the news columns and of the a learned editorial comment," he said, "it is not in these that lies the greatest value of the newspaper to the people at large. The true mirror of the times: the true reflection of our national prosperity; the true hope tor the future is to be found in the vivid, electric, stimulating advertising columns, without which the making of the modern newspaper would not be possible. "The standards in buying which the general public relies upon have been established only by high-class advertising. First the quality of the product is established; then the name is established and thereafter, as the quality is steadily maintained or improved, the name, which becomes by constant and persistent advertising a household word, becomes increasingly valuable and standard.

"We are fortunate in having a Govthat believes in advertising. President Harding himself is not only a good newspaper publisher, but a mighty good advertising man. And he has surrounded himself with helpful advertising men. "I can offer you no better or more helpful message for the new year than to urge you to buy advertised goods. Remember that advertising is a real and vital educational force.

Read advertising and realize how sturdy and established is the reputation back of the advertisements you read. Patronize stores that advertise and use goods that are advertised and avoid substitutes, and the economies you will be able to make are sure to aid in making the coming year a happy and a prosperous one for all of you." MORE MARRIED IN CITY THIS YEAR THAN LAST Statistics given out by Deputy City Clerk J. J. McCormick yesterday indicate that 1922 exceeded 1921 in the number of marriage licenses issued in this city, though it was probably not up to the banner year 1917, when there was a rush of soldiers and draft dodgers to get married. The figures show that in Manhattan 39,303 licenses were issued; Brooklyn 20.780: and Queens 4,282.

In Brooklyn the Deputy City Clerk performed 3,289 marriages, and in Queens 484. WOMAN HELD AS FUGITIVE Mrs. Elizabeth Catania. 31 years old, of 46 Union Brooklyn is held for examination next Tuesday on a charge of being a fugitive from justice. She was arrested yesterday by Detective Tony Sadlo of the Hunter's Point precinct as the result of a communication received by the Hunter's Point detectives from Frank B.

Truax, chief of police of Fresno, The exact charge against the woman made in Fresno is not known here. When arraigned in the Long Island City Magistrates Court yesterday she entered a plea of not guilty. K. OF C. CARD-DANCE.

and Carroll st. DEATHS A row has now developed in the Jenks Legislative Committee which investigated the official conduct of Supreme Court Justice Selah B. Strong over the proposal of some to present a resolution censuring the judge. Another meeting of the committee is to be called at Albany within a few days after the legislative session opens, it was announced last night, to take up this question, together with the details of the report to be submitted. The proposal to recommend impeachment proceedings, urged in the brief the committee counsel, Harry C.

Perking and Clark H. Timmerman, has been definitely rejected, but the question of censure seems to be open. Some members of the committee have declared that a legislative committee in an impeachment proceeding has only the scope and prerogatives of a Grand Jury and, the therefore, has but of two courses open, presentment an indict resolution for impeachment-or the finding of no cause for action. Any course between the two, it was declared, is wholly without the province of the. committee, and, if it is undertaken, certain members are said to be ready to denounce the committee on the floor of the Lower House.

These members will be satisfied with nothing less than a complete exoneration for the Supreme Court justice. They hold that the evidence produced warranted no action whatsoever, that the committee has practically admitted this by turning down the proposal to ask for impeachment, and in view of this the group would simply make itself ridiculous and place itself on the level with the ordinary community board of trade by passing resolutions of censure. There is also some bitter feeling in the committee over the manner in which the briefs of the counsel were made public. It is pointed out that they were presented in such a manner as to appear to indicate and forecast the action of the committee. This was pronounced that the general impression got abroad that the committee had determined to ask for impeachment and the result was that Chairman E.

B. Jenks was compelled to make a statenot be taken as indicative comment declaring that the reporte must mittee's attitude. Some of the members assert that the committee was held up to ridicule by the handling of the matter. They declare that a statement should have been made at the time the brief was made public explaining that it was merely counsel's argument. The secret session of the committee, it is declared, was rather heated and a number of the members who have very strong feelings in the matter refused to attend.

Altogether the whole situation has been stirred up and fireworks are threatened in the near future unless a plentiful supply of diplomacy is exerted. Meanwhile the friends of Justice Strong are sitting on the sidelines, laughing. Apparently they have not even been worried by the Perkins-Timmerman brief that recited just 18 reasons why impeachment proceedings should be taken. According to the information at hand, Strong's counsel, which included exSenator Edgar T. Brackett, of Saratoga, had a very definite understanding with the Republican leaders who control the Assembly that there would be no impeachment proceedings, provided would call a halt in the case, which 'the leaders regarded, even last summer as unwarrantable.

Brackett had prepared some rather startling evidence that was said to attack the Republican organization of Nassau county, but he did not put in a full defense. Assemblyman Thomas A. McWhinney and other prominent Republicans in Nassau, were thoroughly angry over the turn in the situation, particularly the hint that Strong's defense would "show up the G. O. P.

organization," and the Long Island legislator has since been urging that Strong be given an opportunity to present whatever he had. The solon has been challenging Strong group to "produce." But the latter has been sitting very tight, apparently thorougly satisfied with the progress of. events and willing to wait the outcome of the committee deliberations without making any move.
