Thirteen Women Answer
Summons of Mr. Pell
New York Council of State De?
mocracy Organized to Elect
Assemblymen
Thirteen women and two men re?
sponded yesterday afternoon to the call
of former Representative Herbert Pell
jr. for a meeting to organize the New
York City Council o* the Eui? : re State
Democracy at the Hotel Commodore.
Mr. Pell is the new chairman oc the
Democratic State Committee. In the
absence yesterday of Mrs. Charlea L.
Tiffany, regional vice-chairman of the
new organization, Mrs. Charles E. S -
monson, a former Republican, pro de-;.
Chairman Pell explained the object
of the new Empire State Democracy to
be to elect Democratic Assemblymen,
80 that the reactionary policies of Gov?
ernor Miller, as he styled them, might
be successfully combated. Mr. Pell
attacked the Governor, Senator Lusk,
the invasion by the state of New York
City's right to home rule, and the new
moving picture commission, which wa3
organized, he said, in violation of a
proper principle in government. Ho
said Governor Miller's economies in
state administration were brought
about largely by tricky bookkeeping,
and that the highways of the state were
beinrr neglected.
"The Democratic party," said Mr.
Pell, "is the party of ail the people.
There is no group so rich that it can
buy us, and no group to numerous that
it can intimidate us."
Mr, Pell said the new organization
would not concern itself with the elec?
tion of a city ticket this year nor with
Con gres et. on and Senators next year.

Hammeratein Transfers j
Chief Efforts lo London j
Restrictive Laws Here and High
Cost of Production In- j
spire Change
Arthur Hammerstein announces that
he will transfer the bulk of his theatri- ;
cal producing activities to London. Re?
strictive laws that menace amusements
and the high cost of production in New :
York account for his determination toi
minimize his theatrical offerings it)
America.
Mr. Hammerstein has organized an
English theatrical corporation and has
acquired two of London's West End
theaters to house its productions. It
is his purpose to bring to the United
Slates such of his pieces as receive the I
stamp of London success.
His London season will begin in Jan?
uary at the Lyric Theater with Frank'
Tinney, in "Tickle sie." In March he
will present "Tumble In." with Peggy
O'Neill, and then, in succession, "Ka- '
tinka," "You're in Love." "Sometime,"
"Somebody's Sweetheart." "Coat Tails,"
"Jimmie," "Always, You," "De Luxe An?
nie," "The Front Seat" and "The
Ground Moor." The last two are dra-|
malic nieces which are first listed for
American production. Before departing
for London, in December, he will pre?
sent a musical comedy called ' The
Golden Bantam," which is the work of!
Otto Harbach and Herbert Stothart. i
Press Club Head
Admits He Issued
Inaccurate Letter
Declared Second Mortgage
Was Retired fay History
Scheme, but Fails on the ?
Stand to Recall Facts!
-
Edward Percy Howard, president of
the. New York Press Club, was at one j
time known as 1'ercy Linden, while lie ]
was on the stage, according to his test:- j
mony yesterday before former Supreme
Court Justice Peter A. Hendiick, who:
is sitting as referee in the investiga- j
tion of the affairs of the club. Thii- i
fact was one of the few things that Mr. ?
Howard was able to remember during ?
his examination.
After severe pressure by II. Francis
Dyruff, counsel for the petitioners, he
finally admitted that Statements con?
tained in a circular letter he had sent
to members of the club after the court
proceedings were institute were inac?
curate. This letter was circulated as
justification of his six years' adminis?
tration as president, of the club. In it ?
he had said the $25,000 sccoi.d mort- I
gage of the club had been retired by
the World War History solicitation
scheme, but. in his testimony he was
not able to remember anything con?
crete about the second mortgage trans?
action.
During the h"aring he testified that
persons who Bi.bscribed to the World
War History, promoted by John J.
Wohltman, were placed on the pre?
ferred list of the clue, and invited to
its functions. Y/ohltitan received 60
por cent of the proceeds of this solici?
tation.
It was also bronrbt out that one
member. Monte Cutler, had been "ad?
monished" by the hoi.id of trustees of
the club for having criticized the
World War History scheu Cutler
was brought before the board and sub?
jected to an examination. During the
course of this examination, according
to affidavits produced, Walter E. War?
ner, who is alleged to have been sitting
unconstitutionally as a member of the
board, said to Cutler:
"As a reporter for many years you
must have done many favors for men
who are well to do. Don't you think
thai you and men like you should be
willing to let. the club benefit now by
capitalizing these favon for the i:\;h.'"
Howard said that he knew nothing
about the foundation :'und, of which
the club's records shuwed ho war, pre i
dent during 1917. Letters soliciting
membership in the club under this
foundation fund, signed "Edward Percy
Howard," were introduced, but Howard
repudiated the signature.

managers half way at any time.

A conference with representatives of
the musicians' union was held during
the afternoon, but it was Baid that
wages rnd conditions o? employment

Lee M. Boda and Felix It. Wendel
schaeffer; in cities of less than 200,000

One of the important matters of the
day was the adoption of a resolution
providing that no question of policy is
to be taken up by the organization as
a whole, giving power to the Board of
Governors to deal directly with any
question in dispute with employees,
railroads or other interests.

sentatives of the stage hands, had

; rumor was denied by Mr. Ame.-, who
i said that it was merely to explain the
purposes of the new managers' organi?
zation,
i Victor Leighton, chairman of the
' transportation committee, held a pre?
liminary meeting with representatives
I of the railroads on the subject "f rate
; adjustments. The Eastern, New Eng

operate until she had' communicated
with relatives in Brooklyn. Captain Et

an effort to get her ashore alive. An
ambulance from Cong Island College
Hospital and relatives of the girl had
been summoned by wireless to the pier.
