EIGHTEEN THE EAST HAMPTON STAR, FRIDAY, APRIL 23, 1926 TITLE CO. MERGER TO AID ISLAND Merger of U. S. and N. Y. Title Will Benefit GIVE CONSERVATION COMM. MORE POWER Governor Smith Would Empower Commission to Determine R eg ulation* ANSWERS OBJECTIONS MADE Capital Fund* Far Above $30,000,- 000, Unenumerated A**et* of Both Institution* Big Answering the objection made by a group of stockholders in R iverhead, Long Island, that in the proposed m erger of the United States Title Guaranty Company with the New York *Title and Mortgage Company, the Long Island company’s assets had not been fully considered, a state' m ent has been sent to all stockhold ers by the executive committee of the latter institution. In the state m ent it is disclosed that the commit tee had before it unenum erated as sets of the New Y ork T itle and Mort gage Company of $8,730,259 and in vestigation by the Suffolk County stockholders of the United States Title Guaranty Company claimed ad ditional assets for that institution of $1,278,000. Adding these unenum erated assets to the published s ta te ments of both companies, the merged concern will have actual capital funds of n o t only $30,000,000, as had been stated when the m erger w as planned, but of about $40,000,000. In approving this m erger the di rectors of the United States Title G u aranty Company had in mind the tremendous value that the new com pany can have in the development of Long Island and realized that per sonal or sentimental consideration should not w eigh against so g re a t a benefit to the community in which they a re interested. Long Island needs a strong title and m ortgage company to enable it to embrace fully its possibilities in the g re a t development w hich is now taking place there. Property values have increased enormously. A tract on the Northern Boulevard,] running through to State Street in Flushing,! which sold eighte^h months ago for $50,000, now b ears a sitm “this plot ( can be bought for $200*000” In ' W hitestone, a tract o f 185 acres, that two years ago was offered to a golf club for $2,000 an acre, was sold a year ago for $5,000 an acre and re cently for $8,000 an acre.* Business property is held a t $10,000 a front foot on Jamaica Avenue, Jamaica. These a re indications of a p ro sper- j ity on Long Island that needs met- j ropolitan backing to realize itself. It is net the intention of the new ; company to d ep a rt in any way from its policy of courageous conservatism i which has led it to the forefront in 1 its field. I t is rather intended to ex-j tend these facilities which have prov- j en so valuable to the community and ! profitable to its stockholders into < further and even more productive j fields, as well as to increase its own | activities in its home territory. TRAWLER PIONITA SINKS OFF MONTAUK The following statem en t made to the Legislature by Governor Alfred Smith regarding the expensive sys tem of passing amendments to the Conservation Commission is of inter est to Long Islanders: “Year a fter y ear the time of the Legislature and the E xecutive is tak en up w ith the passage and consider ation of amendments to the Conser vation Law. Some twenty years ago it w as certified that it cost the S ta te of New York about $600 apiece for every bill that became a law. It would be interesting to know how much it costs today in the light of increased prices for everything. But aside from its cost it seems nonsen sical to take up the time of the Leg islature and the E xecutive office w ith the passage of regulatory bills, t h e , subject m a tter of which should be I taken care of by the rules and reg u lations of the Conservation Depart ment. “This> y ear so far, out of 500 bills considered by me, more than forty of them a re m a tte rs that have to do with the m anner and time of taking fish and game. Why should the L eg islature waste its time changing the open season for fox squirrels, and the taking of w a te r fowl, and the sale of certain wild animals, and the regulation of the use of high power ed rifles on Long Island, and the tak ing of fish from Kayugah Lake in Schuyler County, and changing the season for the taking of cottontail rabbits, and the taking of pickerel and pike, and regulating the use o f , nets in C haumont Bay, and fixing by law the time for the taking of lob s te rs from lobster pots, and regulat ing the length of white fish; and the taking of Black bass from Lake George, and the season for trapping m u sk rats in Essex and W ashington Counties, and providing for the breeding and possession of ferrets, and fixing the open season for wild pheasants, and regulating the sale and possession of oysters and the m anner of caring for them, and changing the open season for bear in Greene, Delaware and Ulster Counties, and changing the open season for black-bellied and golden plover? One bill goes, to my mind, to the ridiculous extreme of fixing by law the num b er of tip-ups that can be used in fishing in Chautauqua Lake, so that instead of twelve, as the law now provides, you may have fifteen. “I mention above only a few of the laws recently passed. They num ber more than forty. The sensible thing in my opinion is to empower the Conservation Commission to make rules and regulations covering the taking of fish and game and wild animals. I appreciate that it is late in the session to make this recom m endation. If, however, you are kindly disposed -to a c t on it, I will be glad to help you progress the legislation by the riecessary message to obviate the necessity -of having the printed bill lie on the desks of the members for three days.” (Signed) Alfred E. Smith. MISS H. CADY GIVES RECITAL H a rriette Cqdy, well-known pi anist, appeared at Steinway Hall, Monday, in a matinee of classics, with which she will contrast an eve n in g of “ m oderns” n ex t week. Miss Cady was applauded in Bach’s G Minor “English Suite,” pieces by W eb er and Hanselt, a Schuman “Novelette” and five Chopin pre ludes. The Swedish girl gives h er fiance a plain gold band ring upon h er e n gagement to him, while she in turn receives a similar token from him. LONG ISLAND ASSOCIATION (Continued from page one) in marking the roads of Long Island. Early in the existence of the associa tion the slogan: “H it the Sunrise Trail” was adopted. The association then took steps to establish sunrise trails. Three trails were marked from M anhattan to the eastern points of the island. In addition to the work of making the three highways known to the public in g en eral through the marks, the association has worked for the establishment of a p ark sys tem on L ong Island and the opening of the Pipe Line boulevard through Brooklyn to Suffolk county. The association has been instru m ental in interesting some of the largest developers of real e state in the possibilities of L ong Island. Men who have been p ro m in en t in develo- ments in Chicago, St. Louis, Cali fornia, and Florida have come to Long Island through the efforts of the association. For several y ears the Long Island Association has broadcast inform a tion concerning motor routes' on the island. The association has published a small folder map which is in con stant demand. Inquiries have come to the association from England, France, Spain, Norway. Germany, Italy the Argentine, Japan, and China. When the Prince of W ales visited Long Island in -1924 he sent to the association for two of the maps. One of these was marked by the P rince and sent to King George V. Albert, King of the Belgians, and his entourage used the maps of the association d u ring their v isit to Long Island shortly a fter the war. In addition to publishing maps of Long Island the association adver tises the running schedules of the New London and Greenport-Sag H a r bor, and the Bridgeport and Port Jefferson ferries. The unselfish work of the associa tion has given it a fine name as' an organization standing always for the . best' and seeking to aid b u t n ev er to 1 influence u nfairly. All the officers of the association have served the organization gra tuitously from the day of its o rg ani zation. T he only expenses o f the as sociation have been those of office r e n t and for clerical help. Men of ability and high office positions have directed the activities of the associa tion, thus making it one o f the b est governed in the country. The Long Island Association has the support of many large corpora tions on Long Island included among which a re : the Long Island Railroad, the Long Island Lighting Company, the New York Telephone Company, the Port Jefferson and Bridgeport S teamship Company, the Suffolk County F arm 'B u re a u Association of Riverhead, the Long Island Poultry Association, the Long Island Duck Growers’ Association.

I speak from the fullness / v) of 30 years’ experience with them. Oil is clean, economical, and dependable. It saves a world of wock. No coal or wood to carry in, no ashes to carry out. And no dust. “I have just completed a special experiment on the 1926 model Perfection Oil Stove, test ing it under all possible cooking conditions. I cooked many meals in my own kitchen. Every dish was deliciously cooked. Immediate Cooking “Steak began to broil and my molasses cake began'to rise almost as soon as I lighted the burners. There was no waiting for the heat to ‘come up.’ \ “The bottom of every utensil used in the experiment was as clean as a china dish. No scouring was necessary. Those long Perfec tion chimneys certainly are in surance against sooty kettles. All at the Same Time “I cooked many things at once. For boiling beef I used a very low flame. I French-fried po tatoes over a hot flame with yellow tips about V A inches high above the blue area. I cooked white sauce over a medium flame. “I used all grades of heat at the same time satisfactorily. All flames remained steady and even. They did not creep or ‘crawl.’ This is a real blessing to the cook. She can forget her stove and keep her mind on her cooking. **Very Well Satisfied** “Altogether I was very well satisfied with the Perfection Stove. And, my good opinion of oil stoves has increased, if that is possible.” 4,500,000 lu Use The other five famous cooks were enthu siastic about the 1926 Perfection, too.
