Wednesday, July 27, 1921 New York Letter (From the Monthly Letter Issued by The New York Post) NEW YORK, July 27.—Good for Rev. Francis E. Clark, president of the Young People's Christian Endeavor! He came to New York and took no occasion whatever to tell us what a wicked city we were. It sounds improbable, but its true. In opening the recent convention of his organization here, Rev. Clark said, "I am gratified by the conditions here and, in fact, throughout the country, with regard to religion; comparatively speaking, in its laxity of morals. I cannot agree with 'reformers' who cry aloud that this city is a den iniquity." New York has grown so accustomed to being scolded and held up as a terrible example that she humbly expects and even though she doesn't know just what it's all about, she accepts what they say of her without demur. But the unexpected balm from this one kindly gentleman is gratifying. With the new theatrical season only five or six weeks ahead of us, it's worth while looking over what we're going to have in the way of new productions. And in spite of the Equity-managerial war and the announced retiring of George A. Cohan, there are to be a good many offerings. "Back to Methuselah," George Bernard Shaw's latest; "The White Headed Boy," which Dillingham is to put on with the original Irish company; "Kiki," a French comedy brought over by David Helasco; the dramatization of "Main Street," William Hodge in his own "Beware the Dogs"; "The White Peacock," a Spanish play starring Olga Petrova; and Ibanez's "Blood and Sand," are some of the most interesting of those already booked, both from the standpoint of excellence and unusualness. Margaret Campbell, acting in "Lightin'" declares that she is really enjoying her stage weeps nowadays for the first time in her life. She used to have to sob with one thought for her tears and another for her eye makeup, she explains. "No one who sheds her tears in private can be grateful for Rev. Francis E.

It must be borne in mind that this country has been built up by the means of the cheapest transportation in the world. So we believe that ultimately a general reduction in rates is essential, but that cannot come until railway operating costs have been substantially reduced. Until then no reduction is defensible. Railway rates are on a actual net of $100,000,000 over $100,000,000 Margaret Campbell, acting in "Lightin'" declares that she is really enjoying her stage weeps nowadays for the first time in her life. She used to have to sob with one thought for her tears and another for her eye makeup, she explains. "No one who sheds her tears in private can appreciate the strain of doing it on the stage, where the lightning has compelled you to put black stuff on your lashes and blue stuff on their lids," she says. "Now I've adopted artificial ones, no painting or penciling any more. I can cry or rub my eyes—do whatever I please—and no grimy streaks threaten my cheeks and my eyes don't get full of make-up. If the men of the stage have sense, they'll take to them too." So along with Edison and who ever invented cold cream. Miss Campbell would put the rescuing Mr. Nestle, the eye-lash inventor, as chief benefactor of the human race. And now a campaign has been started to give poor downtrodden man his rights in the way of cool-dressing. Arthur Henry, not content with being known as the husband of Clara Kummer, is going in for a little fame on his own account. He says his cause amounts to more than does any play in the world—even if its written by his successful wife. He refuses to wear a coat. With his stick to lend dignity, he is treading our streets these days coattless and unafraid. The stares of the crowd awe him not. Now he's after equally brave men to follow his lead. In this rapidly changing place there is something appaling in anyone who has remained in the same place, in the same building, in the same business for more than 10 or 30 years. And when a man manages like B. Lachmann, the hatter, to make that permanence a matter of 53 years he becomes almost fit for an epic here. In the one shop on Hudson-st" he has lined and carried on his craft for that more than half a century, the only person in the whole district who would have been found there half that time ago. Some one suggested that the little man retire. It has never been suggested again. New York bankers are becoming a hardworking olast. This summer the "bankers specials" which leave town at 12 o'clock on Fridays and return about the same hour on Tuesdays are bleak and deserted. So are their golf links during the week. Whether it is because business is dull and the bankers are trying to carry all that they can of the country's load by watching its every turn of finance or whether business is picking up and they are staying in their offices to nurse every additional hit that looms on the horizon. Regardless of the present level of rates, it must be borne in mind that this country has been built up by the means of the cheapest transportation in the world. So we believe that ultimately a general reduction in rates is essential, but that cannot come until railway operating costs have been substantially reduced. Until then no reduction is defensible. Railway rates are on a war level because railway costs are on a war level. Business would be poorly served by a slashing of rates that would produce a series of railway bankruptcies. Nevertheless, we cannot expect prosperous conditions until the cycle of deflation has been completed. In this cycle must be included railway wages and railway supplies. When operating expenses have been deflated, railway rates can be deflated, but we cannot expect to go back to the pre-war level of rates, as those rates were unfairly low. An examination of the railroads' operating expenses during the eight months following expiration of the government guarantee, shows actual net operating income of the carriers war that period was only $277,420,000. A 6 per cent return for The shrinkage that period amounts to $728,901,000 is now apparent. women's colleges. Miss Dabb has recently been out to Oklahoma to see the ceremonies of the "friendship fire"—symbol of friendship between the white and the Indian girls—at the Y.W.Camp conference at Tulsa. The organization promotes this friendship in the belief that they may learn much that is interesting and helpful from each other. Almost 500 Indian girls are members of the association. According to a careful researcher, the doggiest place in town is Broadway and 104th-st. A good many girls from the Follies, the roof gardens, and the various summer revues live around there. And everyone of them has a bull terrier, a show, a spaniel or a Belgian police dog; all decorated with handsome ribbon bows, and most of them quite uncomfortable. But they make a brave showing on masse. Normalcy would seem to be on its way to restoration if the choerful news that lunchrooms etegiera are once more vying for one's business is any indication. In the cloak and suit district—the only manufacturing district of New York—there is such competition among the little coffee and sandwich rooms which send their food to the factory workers, that one of them has put up a sign reading, "ten per cent commission paid to errand boys and girls." I never supposed a sea lion ever kept out of water. But it seems that wetness is entirely a grown-up taste of theirs. Vollead, the baby sea lion together received. Whether the farmer would be benefited in the slightest by a reduction of freight rates under those conditions is hardly debatable.

This summer the "bankers specials" which leave town about 12 o'clock on Fridays and return about the same hour on Tuesday are bleak and deserted. So are their golf links during the week. Whether it is because business is dull and the bankers are trying to carry all that they can of the country's load by watching its every turn of finance or whether business is pickling up and they are staying in their offices to nurse every additional bit that looms on the horizon. I don't know. But certain it is that the private offices of that clan are more occupied than they have been at this time of the season in a good many years, if we leave out '17 and '18. Maybe this denotes the coming epoch in luxurious homes. Henry L. Doherty, millionaire public service corporation man, has built himself a domicile atop the ten-story building at 21 State-st, way down by the Battery, where he also has his offices. It's the last place in this whole city one would expect to find a residence, but it's an ideal location according to Mr. Doherty, with its view of Battery park and the harbor. He takes all his recreation within a radius of three or four blocks of his own office and own home, and he finds the top of a skyscraper perfectly adapted to a 20-room residence, he says. The Women's City club of New York, which is taking an interest in the status and the welfare of the American Indians in this state, has named Miss Edith Dabb, formerly of Oklahoma, on its Indian committee. Miss Dabb is one of the national authorities on Indian work and on cooperation between the red man and the white. She is at the head of the Indian work carried on by the Young Women's Christian Association, and because of the complete confidence which the Indian tribes have in her, she has been able to make the work particularly worth while, not only as regards the regular association undertaking and like young Indian girls but in bringing about closer understanding between the older members of the two races. The Y. W. among the Indians has accomplished much good on the government reservations and in the mission schools, just as the organization works in our own news that lunchrooms etcetera are once more vying for one's business is any indication. In the cloak and suit district—the only manufacturing district of New York—there is such competition among the little coffee and sandwich rooms which send their food to the factory workers, that one of them has put up a sign reading, "ten per cent commission paid to errand boys and girls." I never supposed a sea lion ever kept out of water. But it seems that wetness is entirely a grown-up taste of theirs. Vollead, the baby sea lion at the Aquarium, has a sun parlor all his own. He can't swim for six weeks yet and must be kept dry during that time. So they have fused up his sky parlor on the Aquarium roof and he spends his sunlight hours there basking, like any other baby. The new "Village Follies" will open this month under the protection of the Bohemians, Inc., who will open the production at the little Village Theatre just as a matter of sentiment before bringing it up town to greater seating capacity. John Murray Anderson, who has already established his production as out of the ordinary in the way of revival comedies, promises something entirely new in this latest edition. Miss Billie Shaw, heretofore known only as a vaudville dancer to the general public, blossomed forth recently as a playwright, and a very good one. Five of her plays were put on at the Appolo Theatre in one week and brot the young dancer into immediate attention of the serious world of the dramas. The list included an exposition of five different types of stage art; a farce which depends upon situations for its interest; a straight comedy, in which the interest depended largely upon the dialogue, a "heart interest" drama, a novelty playlet; and a tragedy. The next time you hear someone pitying "those poor city dogs" pause a moment before you join in condemnation of the cruel owner who "keeps them cramped in a tiny apartment with no chance for air and exercise." Maybe he is more self-sacrifice in his affection than you know. There is, for instance, William O. Conway! He's the type you rather living in a smartly done, luxurious bachelor apartment on or just off the avenue, probably with a man to brush his clothes and tree his What a remain clothes upon person Carlisle, I believe thing some time true.

WALTER YOUNG, 1 mile west of CyPRESS on blvd. When the carriers were returned to their owners their treasuries were dangerously depleted. They could not be strengthened because of the negligible net earnings since reported. In consequence, it has been impossible for the companies to pay their bills promptly. One railroad is understood to have bills payable of $65,000,000. The Government is said to owe this road over $100,000,000. This is doubtless a typical situation. A prompt and liberal settlement of the accounts between the Railroad Administration and the carriers would produce untold benefits. It would be the first step towards a business revival. The second step would follow when increased net earnings prompt the railroads to begin buying again. The amount of work that should be done to place the rolling stock and other property of the carriers in shape to handle a normal flow of traffic is stupendous. Far-sighted business men have recognized that if the railroads enter the markets as buyers in periods of depression, not only would they procure their supplies more cheaply, but the period of depression would unquestionably be shortened. The shrinkage in traffic which is now apparent has been only a shoe. Instead he enters a respectably modest entrance at 71 East street and ascends stairs when he wishes to reach his residence. He is quite comfortable, and that has to do, because on the floor below in equal comfort, are his three airdresses with a bought and paid for janitor at their heels when they wish to cruise the streets. Poor Mr. Conway not only pays for the janitor's apartment and the food for the janitor and his two children and his wife and his wife's sister, in order to have his dogs cared for without complaint, but "I can rarely visit them," he says, "and when I come in at night and pass their floor, I have to take a limp in order not to have them recognize my step and howl all the rest of the night in consequence. It may not be an ideal arrangement for the dogs, but they get more out of it than I do." New York City is taking a great deal of pride in the ovation given by Paris to Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney who is over there arranging the exhibition of American art, with the purpose of familiarizing the French art world with the American school of art. Mrs. Whitney is credited in Paris with being one of the most intelligent art critics, art appreciators, and sculptors, which has visited that city of art students in a long, long time. There seem to be no limit to Elsie Ferguson's supply of energy. At a season of the year when most players are planning vacations Elsie is working on the forthcoming production of a new Zea plank. As Mr. Julius Kruttschitt, Chairman of the Southern Pacific, points out in a very illuminating letter just sent to stockholders, 64 cents out of every dollar of operating expenses were paid to labor at prices fixed by the Government; 15 cents additional went for materials and supplies at prices fixed by the Government, and 3½ cents were paid for expenses incurred by the Government in the first two months of 1920 when the carriers were still under Federal control. Therefore a total of 82½ cents out of each dollar of expenses in 1920 was paid out at prices practically fixed by the Government itself. With all of this, there have been some recent favorable developments. The Labor Board has authorized a 12 per cent reduction in wages which took effect July 1, which will result in savings estimated at $375,000,000 a year, and the wasteful national agreements are abrogated as of the same date. Everyone wishes to see those who work in transportation service fairly remunerated, but there is no possible justification for many of the abuses that crept into wage schedules during Federal control. The public should demand the speedy abolition of law-made jobs. its owner told her school teacher. That good disciplinarian told the child that she must either repair or replace it. She couldn't do either and fully expecting to be sent to jail, she ran away, with her faithful little sister, and hid in the dark. It was tragedy just as real as the "happy little children" people have probably known. A market basket full of Irish sod and baby hawthorn trees will sail back and forth across the ocean much like the Flying Dutchman, maybe forever—or until the hawthorns become too large to be proper passenger ship floral decorations. Miss E.A. Shanks, from Mission, Texas, arrived the other day from Queenstown bearing her bit of the old soil' and three sprigs as her dearest treasure, to be bravely transplanted in Texas. Unfortunately the ruling against all plant life from Europe, to guard against disease, prevented her from bring them ashore at New York. Her grief touched one of the ship's officers so keenly that he promised to keep them aboard and give them good care. So back and forth they will travel. Even in this "city of commercialism" some other view of life breaks through once in a while. (Just as often, I imagine, as it does anywhere else in the world.) In the will of Nicholas Allenkoff, New York lawyer, who died the other day, he says, after disposing of the $15,000 which constituted his material wealth, "I beg my children to respect ideals and guidelines."

There seem's to be no limit to Elsie Ferguson's supply of energy. At a season of the year when most players are planning vacations Elsie is working on the forthcoming production of a new Zoe Akins play, "The Varying Shore." She has been devoting most of her time during the past few seasons to pictures, and an impatient welcome is waiting for her back on the speaking stage. After the success of "Delassee," a new play by Miss Akins is an important matter. What a remarkable effect have clothes upon personality! Some one—Carlisle, I believe—said that same thing some time ago. But its still true. A young woman, who said she was Mrs. Ethel Miller, of the exceedingly civilized address of 62 W. 72nd-st went out to shoot up the town the other night and got two blocks toward her ambition. All because somebody lent her a Wild West outfit, cowboy hat and all. Undoubtedly while the animated Ethel had limited herself to a slip over dress and a silk sweater, a lipstick had been her nearest approach to the warpath. But with the hat, chaps and revolver, and two sailors along a bodyguard, she just had to live up to her scenery. Her warwhop at the corner of W. 61st-st, and Broadway brought a whole body of policemen and the patrol wagon. Every once in a while some smug adult person smiles at children and says, "They don't realize that these are the happiest days of their lives. Not a care in the world!" How anyone can forget the extreme seriousness of children's troubles I never could understand. Here is one instance that I hope may pierce some forgetful souls: Helch Shirk, 10 years old and Agnes, her 8 year old sister, of 35 West 149th street, were missing for three days. Central Park was searched and the harbor police had started dragging the lake in it, when they were found, on the top floor of a building adjacent to their home, hiding in a dark stairway. They were afraid to come out because Helan had broken a doll and officers so keenly that he promised to keep them aboard and give them good care. So back and forth they will travel. Even in this "city of commercialism" some other view of life breaks through once in a while. (Just as often, I imagine, as it does anywhere else in the world.) In the will of Nicholas Allenikoff, New York lawyer, who died the other day, he says, after disposing of the $15,000 which constituted his material wealth, "I beg my children to respect ideals and idealists' and 'dreamers' for what are the dreams of today will be realistic tomorrow—and what are called 'trendless dreams' by our 'practical' men of affairs are the guiding stars of mankind." The summer buyers from all parts of the continent have invaded the city and have brot a quantity of pop and enthusiasm with them. The most pessimistic of New York's business forecasters have chirped up since they began to arrive, and certainly the reports they bring warrant the cheering. Back home, they say, the folks are again "on their feet" and are demanding the goods. They are ready to buy all commodities at sound and reasonable prices.
