RAY PICTURES | ND MIS FEIN SUT FORSSOO0 Expert Called in by Court Confirms Her Claim of Injuries Received. The suit of Miss Marie Frye for 980,000 against Prof. Walter B. Gage, Headmaster of Hackley School of Tarrytown, for injuries alleged to have been received from the defen- Gent's automobile, now becomes a battle of knowledge between several physicians and X-Ray experts, not- ably among them Dr. Leon T. Le- wald, X-Ray expert of St. Luke's Hospital, Dr. Byron C. Darling of No. 104 East 40th Street and Dr. Louis Gregory Coie of No. 10% Park Avenue, Manhattan. Dr. Lewald, who was appointed by Supreme Court Justice J. Addisop Young in White Plains yesterday to its present condition, took the stand this mornimy and said that two pic- tures were taken yesterday at the faboratory of Dr. Darling, with the other physicians present. The two pieturey were shown in the reproduc- ing “shadow box" to the Judge and jury. The X-ray machine was placed on the Judge's bench in front of the jury box. Dr. Lewald was asked by Justice Young to minutely describe what th: pictures showed. Dr. Lewald said: “The picture shows a lack of sym metry amounting to about 11-4 inches to the left of the body. Ondinarily the pelvis bone is symmetrical and in what might be termed two even por- tions. The normal pelvis when pho- tegraphed shows a dark line plumb centre of the body.” “Does the picture show a fracture asked Judge Young: “The picture shows that there hav been two fractures of the pelvis on the left side of the body.” “Does this plate show take X rays of Miss Frye's pelvis in| fractures have heated?” “It shows the appearance of the healing of both fracture lines. I will say that It shows the bones united with a diminution or shortening of the centre of normal line of the pel- vis.” During the trial the defendant claimed that the X-ray plates shown by the plaintife were “faked” and that there were only shadows upon it in- stead of lines showing fractures. —>—— ONE CEREMONY ENOUGH FOR VALID MARRIAGE |Jastice Holds Religions Rite Needed After Civil. "A civil ceremony 1s Just as binding as a religious one,” declared Justice Kapper in an annulment sult in Rrook- lyn to-day. ‘T say this with all due respect to the religious ceremony. There is no reason for two ceremonies, The bringing of a euit on the ground of fraud is absolutely flagrant disre- gard of our laws. It is possible it has entered the minds of our judges cases of this kind that the couples are better off parted.” ‘The charge of fraud had been made by Mrs. Lena Frilleh of No. 900 Sutter Avenue. who stied as the guardian. of jher daughter, Mrs, Anna Stechler, for (atinulment of her marriage to Emanuel Stechler in October last year, claiming |fraud jnasmuch as he had promised a [religious ceremony after the civil one and had failed to keep his word. The court reserved decision after tell- the attorne for the plaintiff that disbelieved the case it would be d and it could not be appealed, ‘Tam the monarch in this court and my word is final,’ said the court pectnetinenr ete HARSELL’S RELATIVES DOUBT BODY IS FOUND Net hit |e Do Not Believe Mi ' ie Nataralist Wan Sin Robert K.

For the purposes of public under- standing of the outlines of the he- wildering bombardment of plans, dreams, visions and statistics which is now being fired through the press: and promises to continue for weeks, The Evening World presents, briefly, the gist of the Hylan plan and the Port Authority plan. i ‘The Hylan plan, prepared by Arthur | 8. Tuttle, chief engineer of the Board of Estimate; Dock Commissioner Mur- ray Hulbert, Commissioner of Pant and structures Grover A. Whalen and ‘Theodore 8. Oxheim, Richmond Bor- ough Engineer, and Jesse B. Snow, W. J. Wilgus and John F. Sullivan, consulting engineers, was submitted to the Board of Estimate on Oct. 20. It tas cos: $160,000 in engineering ex- penses, and the only thing the matter with it is that while it depends on railroad co-operation, it has not been | adopted by any railroad. Under this plan there would be | constructed In New Jersey a belt line railroad from Haworth, on the Hud- |eon, sweeping inland as far as Chat- }ham and working out again through ; Metuchen to the shores of the Kill van Kull opposite Staten Island. ‘The! [belt line would cross all railroads | with Jersey City terminals and would cost $42,000,000, and the propo- sition is that the railroads pay 75 per cent. of the amount. The city would build a great bridge across the Kill van Kull, new rail- road yards in Staten Island, a tunnel for freight and passenger tvaffic un- der the Narrows, and a belt line along the East River front from South Brooklyn to Astoria, and a connection with the Long Island Railroad anu the New York, New Haven and Hart- ford. The total cost would be! $141,000,000. | Little attention is paid in the plan pe, The values are exceptional Altman & Cn.

It appears to be directed to a consider- able extent to furtherance of the proj- ect of the development of Jamaica Bay as a teeming seaport and indus- trial centre. In brief, the project is for a city- owned railroad and port terminal to be leased for a period not exceeding 25 years under safeguards specified in the proposed legislation. ,It is planned to have the improvemeht pay for itself. The Port Authority plan fs much more comprehensive and much more expensive and is the result of a vast amount of labor and calculation. It provides for a belt line and great classification yards in New Jersey, between Sandy Hook and a point just below Nyack, N. Y., and aleo for a belt line in Brooklyn and Queens over the East River. But it connects New Jersey and Brooklyn by a tunnel from Green- ville, which is just below Jersey City, directly across the Upper Bay to a point in Brooklyn not far below Erie Basin, It also provides for a belt line around Staten Island Two tunnels under the North River are planned in this project, one be- tween Jersey City andgthe lower tp of Manhattan, the cther between Weehawken and a point in the vicin~ ity of 494 Street. These tunnels would connect witn a network of freight tunnels under Manhattas run- ning to various freight terminals. Electric freight service would be maintained through the tunnels and underground routes The Transit Commission proposes to build a tunne] from Staten Island under the Narrows to connect with!in the care of probation officers until et ai ee ESDA lyn, This plan would make possible |;,, Y ‘DECEMBER: 2 8, 1921. Italy. the operation of subway trains from the Bronx, Manhattan and Brooklyn into and to various points on Staten Island. As regards the Transit Commis- ysion’s plan, the general opinion on Staten Island appears to be that the present ferry servite to the Bat- tery would be preferable to a subway servico that made # wide detour through Brooklyn, Bids for the construction of the vehioular tunnel under the Hudson River, which is to cost $28,659,000 when completed, will be called for to- motrow and opened Feb. 7, it was de- cided yesterday at a meeting of the New York and New Jersey Commis- sions. Ground will be broken in Ma: ‘The contracts stipulate that the work must be finished Dec, 81, 1926, The tunnel will follow a line from Canal Street, Manhattan, to i2th Street, Jersey City. ‘The plans and specifications agreed upon provide that the tubes are to be of cast tron, lined with concrete, and have a capacity of 15,000,000 vehicles ‘a year, double the present’ ferryboat traffic. The shafts on the Manhattan side have been sunk at cost of $650,000, whioh has been p: ‘The tunnel is expected to increase commerce facilities in the Port of New York and eliminate present diffi- culties In moving freight from rail- road yards in New Jersey. The com- missions stated that its cost will be amortized in eleven years, and after twenty years each State would show a surplus of $33,635,000 from the en- terprise. > MAN WHO DESHORATED FLAG TO GO BACK TO ITALY Carlo Piezutt!, the young Italian of Cornna, L, 1, convicted of desecrating the American flag by spitting and stamping upon it the day Generalissimo Diaz was welcomed to this city, was to- day, under suspended sentence, placed een West 42nd St. m7 <> Dg SH WY Vn ye <> ' > De 50) Three Thousand Suits of Men’s Outing Flannel Pajamas well cut and well made, of excellent-quality domet flannel (some trimmed with bands of sateen, others with mercerized loops), will be specially priced at a $1.60 per suit Twelve Hundred Men’s Outing Flannel Night Shirts of the same kind and quality of material will be specially priced at $1.35 each 2 Oe HOSIERY : De >/ 2% a7 aig’ sas ‘hie ite Senator sions.
