| OE er rem ae Public Hackmen Protest Against the In Sight-Seeing Ordinance Their Vigorous Objections Heard in the Mayor’s Hear- | ing To-Day. By Sophie Irene Loeb. That the public hackmen are strongly opposed to the “sight-see- ing” ordinance passed in the last meeting of the Board of Aldermen will be shown to-day at the meeting before Mayor Mitchel, who will ‘be asked to veto the measure on the ground that it would again create @n abuse of private privileges that it - took three years to abolish. Also, it clashes with the State law ssyhich strictly forbids such permits any use of the street such as this ordinance prescribes. Tt will also be pointed out to the Mayor that the long fight of hotel men and restaurateurs to retain the private hack stand privilege on the ground that they had a« right to con- sent to the use of the street fronting on their property and the standing of vehicles there, and that the city had no right to establish public hack- wtands at those places, resulted in defeat. They carried this case thr: the courts, and to the Court Deals in Albany, and lost, This marked another precedent ae to the prior right of the public to use public streets and no ex- $2.5 mb all AD ROUND TRIP Atlantic City Sundays July 18 Aug. 1, 15, 29, sy All Bon Wednesdays July 21, Ly.

MAUCH CHUNK Tricky Joker elusive use of such street may be granted to vehicles while wait- ing for hire. The ‘public hackmen claim that since the new ordinance went inte effect they have en- Joyed the free use of the streets in pureuing thelr livelihood and any move establishing any other policy would leave the way open for further monopoly. A committee of the public hackmen will appear and also present the fol- lowing unanimous resolutions from Dressmaking Art and Its Economy at Bloomingdales An Interesting exhibition of dress- making results obtained by shop girls in connection with welfare work is to be seen at Bloomingdales’ until the end of this week. When it is considered that the pupils are engaged daily with their work in the store, and that only one hour and @ fraction of their luncheon Period is avaliable to them, and that to many of tne girie the Sewing needle was &@ decided novelty, the dreasmak- ing work they have done is simply marvellous, Experienced teachers have given instruction #ix times per week, and the members: 1, That this ordinance is noth- ing more than an attempt to re- ZL establish the private hack stand Privileges at one time enjoyed exclusively by various companies, which, after three years of fight- ing, we succeeded in having abol- ished, 2. That this ordinance is in di- rect violation of a law entitled “An act to amend the Penal Law in relation to contracts for the right to use @ portion of the pub- No highway as @ private hack stand,” chapter 8138, Laws of New York, which became effective Deo, 16, 1918, 8. That this ordinance is an at- tempt to secure the use of the front of public buildings on public streets for private gain, and will create a special privilege to any private party letting an office in said building to the exclusion of 6,000 public hackmen who are en- titled to the patronage of New York’s riding public. “The unfairness of this measure must be obvious to you,” go on the hackmen, “for it will work a great hardship on all public taxicab drivers, and will not only re-establish but increase the monopoly which was for- merly enjoyed by those who owned the private hack stand privileges. “As an association of 1,100 mem- bers, all public spirited citizens, we voice our protest against this ‘Sight- Seeing Car Ordinance’ and appeal to you, as our representative, to exer- cise the power vested in you to veto this ordinance,” DECISION ON TAXICAB AMEND- MENT IN AUGUST, Yesterday, before Judge Callahan of Brooklyn, Terence Farley and George Nicholson of Corporation N | Counsel argued two motions against | injunction proceedings as to the new ; amendment, which stipulates that every cab carrying a taximeter shall be deemed ® public hack. This amendment also eliminated the clause that any vehicles operating from a private garage shall be deemed a pri- vate vehicle, This latter clause was used as a cloak by the cab companies to evade the ordinance and operate unlicensed cabs. After losing in the courts of New York, the Mason Seamon Com- pany and the Haverty Company ap- pealed to the Brooklyn courts, Judge Callahan, who heard the cases, stated that he would render a decision the first week in August, Terence Farley scored the companies for their everlasting evasion of the law and their attempts to frustrate legislation for bringing them under the present ordinance, Mr, Farley, in answering Mr, Brown, attorney for the Harvey Taxicab Com- ny, and Mr. Wing, of counsel of ason-Seaman Transportation Com- Any, stated that the argument of Mr, rown was of & considerably wildeat That Brown was going into matters that had already been firmly settied by the Supreme Court of New York ae a the Court of Ap- Deals; that constitutionality of the ordinance and the amendments was sustained by the courts and that tho decision of Mr, Justice Cohalan was clear that any vehicle operated on the streets and which carried passengers for hire came within the purview ot the amended ordinance.

One student, a widow, made three delightful dresses for her children, costing from 15 to 20 cents each. To buy the same garments would indi- vidually cost from 50 to 60 cents. Each pupil is allowed one week's instruction, The garment, experi- mentally made, must be finished dur- ing this riod, although home work may be done upon it. Thirty to thirty-five girls, per day, have availed themselves of this class, and thirty-seven garments enter into the present showing. A one piece dress, of printed cot- ton, that was quite presentable, cost the girl 95 cents for material, A taf- feta and wool suit cost the maker $4 and her time. The thing could not be duplicated for less than $12 to $15. A bathing suit of black surf cloth, with black and white satin trim, that could be worn with pardonable pride at Coney Island, Asbury Park, or even at Atlantic City, cost the stu- dent $1.10 to make. The market price is from $3 to $4, The Art Alliance of America, No, 45 East Forty-second Street, has an- nounced that it will hold a pubiic exhibition in November of “Art as Applied to the Child.” Portraiture, sculpture, miniature and interior decoration, furniture, books, china- pottery, dolls, toys, games, fancy costumes and table utensils will be included in the proposed showing. Conveniently located galleries will be used for this exhibition, and it is hoped that a room complete, includ- ing the decoration of walls and ceil- ing, furniture, screens, &c. may be arranged for. Participants must be nembers of the Alliance. FIRE EXCITES BROADWAY.
