N ‘MISERY’ MARCH Cases Continued in Chil- .« dren’s Demonstration. Two women, arrested along with men during an attempt to lead delegation of five children into the ‘White House as & part of the “child " demonstration yesterday, were $10 each in Police Court today on ly conduct charges. The sen- tences were suspended, however. The women—Mrs. Pauline Gipnick, 97, and Mrs. Gertrude Haessler, 38, both of whom claimed to be New York social workers engaged to accompany the “misery” marchers here—were ar- yested when they voiced objections to the arrest of Dr. Emil Conason, 32, who attempted to take the children into the White House grounds in taxicabs. Dr. Conason, also a New Yorker, was taken into court on a disorderly con- duct charge at the same time as the women, but the case was continued for & few days. He was released on $25 fihtenl. Taxi Driver Blames Police. Harry M. Lowe, colored, driver of the eab in which Dr. Coneson attempted to enter the White House grounds, blamed the police when he was lr- ralgned on charges of speeding an passing a red light. THe four mnwr cycle officers who escorted him to the White House, he declared, urged him to “pep it up.” The case was continued until November 29. ‘The other man—Theodore Richards, colored, was expected to be arraigned later in the day on a disorderly con- duct charge.

C., FRIDAY, VICE GROUP DROPS JTYEAR CRUSADE New York Committee Unable to Raise Funds, Says President. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, November 25.—Unable to raise sufficient funds to carry on, the Committee of Fourteen announced to- day it had been forced to suspend ac- tivities after a 27-year campaign against commerciaiized vice in New York City. Dr. James Pedersen notified the 37 members of the General Committee that “inability to raise our modest budget is forcing to the wall an organization which has served New York City since 1905 and a program which has main- tained an outstanding place in -the never-ending struggle of organized so- ciety against commercialized vice.” A report written by Prof. Raymond Moley, economic adviser to President- elect Roosevelt, was listed by Willlam H. Baldwin, treasurer, as one of the three causes “of our present financial predicament.” Prof. Moley Answered. Although Prof. Moley devoted consid- erable space to criticizing the organiza- tion’s basic policy, its performance and personnel, Baldwin said the professor “has never visited our office, has never examined our records, has never talked with our general secretary.” “Because of his association with the Seabury investigation,” Baldwin con- tinued, “Prof. Moley’s opinion of the committee necessarily has carried weight among those New Yorkers who are our important potential contribu- tors. In the light of his public report, it is interesting to speculate as to what he has said in private discussions. At ml]{s rate, I, as treasurer, know the re- Prof. Moley's report dealt with the vestigation conducted by s-muel Sel- bury into the Magistrates Courts. ld= NOVEMBER 25, 1932. $1,000 Anniversary Fund Is Given €Chest At Wife’s Suggestion The Community Chest today was $1,000 nearer its goal because a well-to-do Washingtonian re- membered his wedding anniver- sary.

Framing of Women, “Unfortunately,” he said, “there arose a public hysteria over the ‘framing’ of innocent women, and the impression de- veloped in some quarters that the Committee of Fourteen either was a party to such methods or at least was derelict in not having exposed them. In spite of this, however, the New York newspapers, upon lea: all the facts, re-established with few reserva- tions their traditional confidence in the committee and its work.” sus| pression,” comment.” QUADRUPLETS BORN One Dies 4 Hours After Birth, Rest May Die.
