The establishment of such a fund,

three years, ever since the creation of
the Foundation. It is hoped that by

*und may reach such proportions that
social workers in their later years may

Vehicular Tunnel Plans
Opposed as Inadequate
Motor Truck Association Asks
t?overnors for Reconsidera*
tion of ProposaU
Tho Motor Truck Association of
America telegraphed last night to Gov?
ernor Smith, of New York, and Gover?
nor Edwards, of New Jersey, askinp
reconsideratlon of the plan for Hudson
vehicular tunnels on the ground that
the proposed diametcr of 20 feet would
bo altogether too small to handle thc
traffic adequatcly and safely. Resolu-'
tions which the association adoped
unanimously were forwarded by mVil.
low ? obJections were stated as fol
"Fir^~~Twenty"foot roadways are
not wide enough to safely accommo-'
date even two steadily moving lines of.
tlltl' 3?u Pr?P?se^- Allowing eight
frnci/c0r ^e m,axiraum width of motor
trucks, and only one foot of space be
traffic there would remain but two
feet of clearance between the tunnel
side. and each line of traffic, there
be?twi??Hain+buVW0 feet of c^arance
between the two lines of travel. This I
thc Association's traffic engineers re- '
port. is totally insufficient to allow for I
saately, smce one line consistine ofi
fast-moving trucks would be constant
? Fkf8it? thf- slowcr mov?ng vehicles
in the other line.
"In case of accidents within the tun- j
nei, such as a truck break-down, the
twenty-foot readway would provide no
room for drawing traffic to one side i
while repairs were being made with-!
out lnterrupting both lines of traffic',
*nd causmg an almost hopeless jam
_c;lse of more serious trouble, such i
as fire, the narrow roadway in the tun
leii would provide no means for quick
-xic, and a dangerous panic would be
certain to ensue.
'?Second?The proposed tunnels would !
>e a waste of the taxpaverV money
>y both states, since within two years
ifter completion they would be totallv
inadequate for the increased traffic
lemands, thereby defeating the very
)bject for which the tremendous ex
)enditure would be authorized."

Daylight Saving in Effect in
This State, but Pennsyl?

Clocks will he movedWad an hour.
-*_?.*' -??_"_*' SundRy i" cities and
states which have adopted the daylijrht
saving plan this year. The daylight-i
?lS_f luW ??!!! is in cffect in thisystate, I
although a bill to repeal it is pending! I
fi?? Nationa Daylight Saving Asaocia-!
tion declared yesterday that Governor
_!?,.*}, Probably would veto the repeal
bill if it was passed.
New York City by local ordinancc
has adopted the plan. So have Buffalo,
Cohoea, Troy, Utica, Yonkers, Syracuse,
Mount Vernon and Gloversville. A bill
authorizing the setting ahead of-clocks
ia pending in New Jersey. If its fails
the following communities will set
their clocks ahead anyhow: Camden,
Plainfield, New Brunswick, Hoboken
and Jersey City. Similar conditions
prevail ln Massachusetts and Rhode
Island.
The Legislatures of Connecticut and
Pennsylvania are not in session and
state daylight-saving laws in those
states are impossible, though several
cities in each state have decided inde
pendently to set their clocks ahead.
PHILADELPHIA, March 20.?The
Pennsylvania Railroad announced to?
day it will not adopt the daylight sav?
ing plan.
"It has been decided to continue op?
erating trains on standard time," thc
announcement says.
"At Philadelphia the legal officer has
rendered an opinion that the daylight
saving ordinance is in conflict with
the state law, which establishes East?
ern time as the standard time for Penn?
sylvania.
"Irrespective of this particular situ?
ation, however, it is not felt that a rail?
road company engaged in interstate
commerce would be justified in oper?
ating its trains on any except the stand?
ard time recognized and established by
Federal authority."
Mrs. Onativia Gets Divorce
Mrs. Clara B. Onativia, it was learned
yesterday, was granted an interlocu
tory decree of divorce several weeks
ago in the White Plains Supreme Court
from Jose Victor Ou_tivia, a wealthy
New Yorker. The. testimony in the suit
was heard before a referee. Justice j
Morschauser granted the decree.
Mr. and Mrs. Onativia were. married
in Manhattan, April 21, 1908. Their
children, Clara, nine, and Dorothea,
five, aro piven into Mrs. Onativia's cus
