Park officials expressed them- | selves last evening as confident that | the course will show a profi® of ap- proximately $3,000 at the end of the first year. | Although complete | not available, a general summary | offered by Park Superintendent ‘ Clyde M.

The authorities vesterday an- nounced the arrest of 200 persons. The organization engaged in forg- ing passports. visas, and affidavits, generally using certificates purport- ing to be those of the Portuguese consul general at Rio De Janeiro. It sold not only such *“documents” but also ‘employment” in Brazil. The authorities d that Spanish accom- plices helped smuggle the peasants across the frontiers of Portugal. Manuel Maria Paulino, leader of the gang, confessed that it had made a net profit of 3,000,000 escudos (about $150,000), according to the police. A raid on the headquarters of the organization disclosed its pos- sessed government stationery, official stamps and hundreds of faked pass- ports with visas for Spain, France and Brazil. Most of the victims of the ring were from the towns of Barrozelas, Gondomar, Braganza and Mirandela. —_— Fritz Calls Operator When Trapped in Loft New York, Sept. 24 (P —Fritz found himself alone on the fourth floor of a loft building in the Bronx.

The loft was deserted and there was no one to hear. Finally he stumbled upon a tel- ephone. The operator could not understand him, but she called the Simpson street station.
