N’ WONDER financiers threw up their hats and officers and | lawyers went home with fat bonuses in their pockets when, the dual subway contracts between the Interborough and the city wore signed! The pudding held plums enough for everybody. From the testimony of Secretary Fisher of the Interborough before the Thompson committee it appears the banking house of J. P. Morgan & Oo. enjoys the constant use of a snug $50,000,000 bal- ance of Interborough cash, paying interest thereon at the rate of only 2% per cent. At the same time $143,000,000 worth of subway exten- sion bonds, which J. P. Morgan & Co. bought at 93, return the bank- ing house 534 per cent. interest from the Interborough. Not to mention the $500,000 cash bonus paid to the Morgan , Sompany and its syndicate associates for services in floating the bonds, “rewards” for all concerned in the deal seem to have been most liberal]. The Morgan house, indeed, is still a long way from having collected all ite share. Sixty-two thousand dollars of Interborough money even went to lawyers employed by the Admiralty Realty Company, which was suing the city and the Rapid Transit companies. Why these op- the Continent “| wae ey aa YES ACT IERE Ba A, A Helping Hand | ponent’s attorneys were entitled to an honorarium from the opposite side is still a mystery. The Thompson committee has uncovered a corner of the dish. Go on and disclose the full richness. rath pe meneeneene POLICING SUBWAY ENTRANCES. T TOOK some time to quict rumors that the subway was to be} I blown up. The town is pretty well convinced now that the police guard at subway entrances were looking for burglars only. All things considered, a little wild talk from persons who begin to have bombs on the brain was not surprising. The general public is to be congratulated upon having shown hardly any excitement at all over the incipient scare. | That, quite apart from bomb rumors, subway entrances are to| have better police protection is as it should be. With a new squad of one hundred and five men, one selected from each police station near a subway, it is planned to have every subway entrance cov- ered within ten minutes after an alarm is sent out. The subway is undoubtedly an avenue of escape for many wrongdoers. Each en- trance is a kind of centre or crossroads in the city’s traffic and as such a vantage point for the police. Nevertheless to citizens in general and to storekeepers and mer- chants in particular the eubway entrance squad can never seem an adequate substitute for the fixed post system which Commissioner Woods abolished, , ‘ —— THE LABOR FAMINE. HE Public Employment Bureau of New York City reports that | T it now receives every day ftom various manufacturing plants calls for workers to fill places where little or no experience is required. It cannot supply this demand because it cannot per- éuade applicants to accept wages of from $5 to $8 a week. The Bu- Teau also says it could easily place several hundred office boys at from $5 to $6 a week. Skilled machinists are’ greatly in demand. Female house servants are scarcer than ever. Yet the Bureau reports that while it filled 1,283 positions in| January, 1,999 persons applied for employment. Apparently, although the labor famine begins to make itself | felt, there are still plenty of unemployed, old and young, who would rather stand out for high pay and stay idle than make a beginning at what they can get. ~ We have grown used to hearing that good household servants ure as rare as radium. Put if there are no more office boys to go to work at $6 per week, where is the country going to got its future bankers and railway presidents? poe oT a Residents of Racine, Wis, were shocked to see @ retail merchant of thet town sally forth with a pastepot and an arm- ordeal that could possibly befa!l any | and then lowed to go back to the home that The Evening World Daily Magazine, Tuesday, February 8, 1916 The Other Woman —— By Sophie Irene Loeb Copgright, 1916, by The Press Publishing Co.
