gained such headwny when they ar

try te prevent its spread.
Fire equipment of all types, ranging
from hand pumps te modern engines,
was presed into me. A second appeal
te the Navy Yard by Harry Welden,
chief of the National Park fire company,
brought in additional several hundred
feet of hose, through which river water
was played upon the fire by means of
band pumps.

In extensive arguments before the
commission at Harrlsburg last night,
Jehn P. Connelly, speaking for the

inconvenienced daily by the "turn
back" system." He doubted If the ad
vantages gained by the company off
set this Inconvenience.
Themas Ilneburn Whit, speaking for
the Philadelphia and Western, also
emphasized that his company has con
templated full service te Sixty-ninth
street, and that the "turn-back'' broke
the connecting link between u network
of New Jersey towns.

P. II. T.. explained thnt the company
Baves $150,000 yearly through the
"turn-back" system, or 0 per cent of

TO APPEAL TO ASSEMBLY
J. Norten Weeks, president of the
Keystone Automobile Club, said today
that the club would back a movement
In the next Legislature te amend ex
isting automobile laws se drivers will
be compelled te take nn (examination
befeie getting a license.
Mr. Weeks nlse would have licenses
for dil vers kept sepnrate from owners'
licences, se thnt an owner who desires
t drive hiifewn car would be compelled
te have a driver's license as well ns a
license ns owner.
Announcement of the Intended legis
lative enmpnign wns made by Mr.
Weeks while discussing the ruling of
Deputy Attorney General Brown that
one holding nn owner's license cannot
legally drive any automobile ether than
his own.
"Wc believe that the holder el n li
cense giving him tile right te drive n
enr should, be allowed te drive any
machine, se long us he does net Infringe
upon the license issued te paid drivers,"
Sir. Weeks said.
"However, it is no use te make a
fight en the opinion new becnuse we
expect a ceuplete change of laws regu
lating automobile driving when the Leg
islature meets In January.
"There Is no question that we nre
coming te realize the need of examina
tions before licenses te drive nre issued
nnd our club is back of a movement le
amend the law te provide for thin,
"The driver's license should be
separate from the owner's licuisc, we
believe. Under the present 'law n man
without nnns or legs, in no way quali

Permanent Injunction la latued
Against Schema by Judge
Jehnsen at Madia
PLAN CALLED NUISANCE
A permanent Injunction restraining
the Philadelphia Rapid Transit Com
pany nnd the Willow Greve Park Com
pany from opening- an, amusement park
nt Stonehurst, en the West Chester
pike, wns handed down today by Jujge
Jehnsen in the Delaware County Court
nt Media.
In nn extensive opinion en the sub
ject he contends that auch a pleasure
resort would constitute -a nuisniice' te
residents of the community.
The action of Judge Jehnsen closes a
controversy which has been waged be
tween residents of Stonehurst and vi
cinity and the P. It. T. for the last
year.
Residents of Mlllbeurne nnd these
along Cobbs Creek parkway Just east of
the Delaware County line, joined in the
pretest ngaiimt establishment of the
proposed pleasure resort.
It wns the desire of the companies te
build the perk nn a tract of ground
known ns the Burd Asylum property,
which, although in Stonehurst. Is only
n short distance from Sixty -third nnd
Market streets. 'Z'
Seme Residents Favored It
When the project was conceived rep
lesentntives of the companies canvassed
residents of Mlllbeurne, Stonehurst nnd
ether nearby places. They found thnt
while ninny objected te the proposed
park, ethers fnvered it, having in mind
the general policy adopted in the opera
tion of Willow Greve Park.
In his opinion Judge Jehnsen said
aineni: ether things :
"The establishment nnd operation of
nn open-air amusement pnrk en the
tracts of land described in the proceed
ing owned by the Willow Oreve Park
Company would necesserily be a nut-'-nice
te the plaintiffs and ethers re--hlinj:
in the immediate neighborhood of
I he proposed park.
"Plaintiffs nre entitled te a per
manent Injunction as prayed for in the
bill restraining the said defendants nnd
inch of them from erecting a public
amusement pnrk en the Kurd Orphan
As.Wiim property.
"Costs te be paid by defendants."
Would Create Nuisance
The case was tried at Media last
February, and fifty -the witnesses were
heard.
The complainants in the case nre res
idents of Upper Darby Township, Mill Mill
beurne and residents cast of Cobbs
Creek.
The Imsls of the complaint against
the establishment of the pnrk is that
It would create a nuisance, bring unde
sirable noises and crowds te the com
munity and generally upset the neigh
borhood, which, It was held, is strictly
a ri'Niiieutiai section.
On the ether hand, counsel for the
P. It. T. held that the land, thirty
nine and one-half acres en the south

ALCOHOLISM A PROBLEM
IN ALL LARGE CITIES
'Mere arreeta far drunkennese bare
been made In Philadelphia since prohi
bition than before, Mayer Moere told
visiting police and fire surgeeaa at City
Hall today aa he scathingly denounced
intoxicated automobile drlvera.
"Alcoholism Id a big problem In all
cities," aald the Mayer. "It has net
been en the decrease ae much as it was
thought It would be. We bare arretted
mere men for Intoxication since prohi
bition than before."
The Mayer also discussed the drug
problem and euggested that addltlena
should be built te all private and pub
lic hospitals for the treatment of drug
addicts.
About thirty surgeons, in this city
te form n national .organization of fire
mid police surgeons, assembled in the
Mayer's reception hall for en official
welcome from Mr. Moere.
Attacks Drag Problem
Ills greeting was particular! warm
te Dr. Daniel J. Donevan, chief deputy
police surgeon of New Yerk City.
The Mayer plunged nt once into' an
attack en the drug traffic, which, he
said, was net te be treated with the
policeman's club, but with the, medical
clinic.
"The men who have been hejd here
for trafficking in drugs were merely
the agents for wealthy men higher up,"
he asserted. "The traffic net only ex
ists in large cities, but in small vil
lages as well.
"With from 800 te 400 addicts in
the Heuse of Correction, wtf have a big
problem en our hands. It is se big, in
fact, that I have asked the Judges time
nnd time again what they are going te
de about it.
"Yeu get nothing from the indis
criminate arrest of drug users. Yeu
must treat them. Shall they become
criminnls or are we going te get out of
them nil the geed that there Is? '
Raps Treacasent of Defectives
"Anether big question," the Mayer
continued," is that of defectives who are
picked up en the streets. I nay of
the commonwealth of Pennsylvania that
It is te Its shame It has made no
adequate prevision for this class of
persons. Such a man should be trented
without charge. He I usually a peer
man who perhaps haa stolen n lenf of
bread. He is net of the criminal
class."
The Mayer -hen turned attention te
the traffic problem.
"There has been much criticism of
the traffic situation In this city," he
said. "If some of the writers of the
hundreds of critical letters we receive
could be put in charge of thla situation
they would net be se free with their
criticism. We must accept the automo
bile aa an accomplished fact. One nu nu nu
tomebile driver can held up n hundred
persons. Same of them seem te think
they control the streets."
CLAUDIA MUZI0 DENIES
SHE STOLE SCOTTO'S LOVE
Her Manager Alae Refuaea te
Credit the Charges
New Yerk, Nev. 21. riaudlu Muzie,
young soprano of the Chicago Opera
Company, appeared deeply agitated yes
terday as she discussed the $12.1,000
alienation of affections suit which Mrs.
Carmcllnn Scotte Is going te bring
against her.
Mrs. Scotte will nllcjc that the prima
dennn has caused her te lese the love
of her husband, Ottnvle Scotte.
The usually debonair Scotte looked
careworn as he gave out a statement
denying that Miss Muzie was responsi
ble for his difficulties with his wife.
Miss Muzte's formal statement, as
given out yesterday, follews: ,
"Mr. Scotte has been my manager
since December, 1020, nnd he has acted
In that capacity te date.
"I was very much surprised te learn
of Mrs. Scotte's Intention te start such
a snit, and wns also surprised te hear
of. any trouble between Mr. nnd Mrs.
Scotte.
"In this matter I am sincerely sorry
for Mrs. Scotte. Rut I assure the nub-
lid that I have had absolutely no part
in this trouble, and I feel certain thnt
Mrs. Scotte has made a grave mistake,
or she hss been HI advised, and she will
realise this very seen."
