After going home for a few min- utes , they both headed for Riyer- head , where they had something to eat and went to the Rlverhead rail- road station , where Cheshire sta tes that he broke a pane*of- glass in the west window of the station leading into the freig ht office. He says he tried to get the window open but found it was impossible to do so . and they both went into the waiting room of the station and lay down on the bench. A short while after they were- in the station Cheshire stated that Officer William Walters came in with the night hostler employed by the rail- road company, who failed to iden- tify them. In the morning they took the train to Jamaica , and stayed in New York City until Thursday, when they came back to Rlverhead. Others who worked,on the case included Deputy Sheriffs Paul Bit- tner and William J. Hunt , Inves- t igator Howard -y. Lane of the Dje- trict . Attorney ' s.Btaff and Patrolman Roswell C. Homan of the River- he?d police. An independent inves- tigation was conducted by Long Island Railroa d eletcetives under the direction of Chief Fred Gott- lieb. Two other Rlverhead burglaries still defy the efforts of Riverhcad and county police to find solutions. Police are acting on the theory that the looting of the Public Market , Main street , last Thursday night , was an inside job . and have ques- tioned a number of suspects , so far without *\\vii*; The intruder.^ whose familiarity with the interior of Uie market waa evidenced by the undisturbed condition of the s tock , got away with about $150 in cash and $110 In chccSs. The looting of the Main street , Kiverhead , restaurant and osfo op- erated by Jphn J: Sullivan on the early morning of New Year ' s Da y is still an unsolved mystery. Cases of liquors valued at about . $300 were taken by burglars who gained entrance throug h a basement win- dow. 2 Youths Admit Looting Station Obituary f. R. FURMAN DIES; CF OLD L. I. FAMILY I Services were conducted Tuesday ivening in the Ruland Chapel at Pat chogue for Salem R. Furman. &5 , retired restaurant proprietor and a pioneer in the exterminating business.

I Mr. Furm an , member of an old long Island family and a native of 'Patcho gue , operated oyster houses »nd restaurants in Manhattan and Brooklyn many years ago.

On his own testimony he was able to see in fron t of him a. distance of only fifty feet , in spite of which he p lunged ahead at a rate of thirty-five miles an hour , in the darkness , with naught but his dim lights showing. This was a plain violation of the statute (Ve- hicle and Traffic Law, Section 15) and a proximate cause of the acci- dent. As to him the verdict must be set aside and the complaint dis- missed pursuant to the reservations at the close of the plaintiffs ' case and again at the close of the whole ease. \While the ease of Marth a Poes- chel is weak , it nevertheless pre- sents a debatable question of fact and hence the verdict in her favor should not be disturbed. \ The defendant is appealing the case to the Appellate Division. Tacitus said: \From the nature of human frailty, remedies operate more slowly than disease. \ McKAY HAS NEW , CROP OF HORSES Charles Mcliay or Middle road , Riverhcad , has just arrived with a carload of western farm chunks that arc without a doubt one of . ,._ /3-„^i. .... ..i.... ,!., .i ^cr^cs thst have ever arrived on eastern Long Among the horses received is a well matched team of roans weigh- ing over 350O pounds , The y ar e a team well worth seeing.

The Fraxier-Lcmke Act , dealing i with farm mortgages in bankruptcy j proceedings and enacted into Fetl- | eral law on Aug. 28 , ly35 , during , the last session of Congress, was . declared unconstitutional by Fed- j eral Judge Mortimer Byers sitting- j in the Federal Court , Brooklyn , on ; Monday. Judge Byers attacked the consti- j (.Ui.ic-na.ity o. t..c ae„ ,n a li-pi- .'^e ! 'iecisiull lie handed down - in tie-? ,; case of Victor Floyd Davis , farmer . of Mount Sinai. Judge Byers held that the Fra- zier-Lemke Act was discriminatory in favor of farm mortgages. In the final paragraph of his lengthy de- | cision. the judge ruled: j \If the mutilation or sterilization , of liens is a necessa ry consequence of the exercise of the power to en- ! act bankrup hcy laws (Paragraph ! D of Section 67 disclaims such a , purpose where good faith appears ) , | it is thought that such a process I should apply alike to all liens of ti\ given class , and not only to those | attaching to property of a selected j class ot ownership In order tha t the requirement of uniformity may be fulfilled; Sub-Section S of Section . 75 of the Bankruptcy Act in its I present form is not a valid exercise of a constitutional power to enact unif orm I HIVS O ; I the subject of bankruptcy. \ Davis , through his attorney, George W . Tucker , of 2S Beaver street . Manhattan , sought to stay under the provisions of the Federal Act foreclosure proceedings against his property ire-tituted by four holders of liens . When Judge Byers announced his decision. Tucker said: \The effect (of the decision) will be to nullify the efforts of Congress to hel p the farmer. The only altern- ative then , is for Congress to pass the S3 , 0OO , 0OO , 0OO bill which is be- fore it and which provides for the issuance of funds to furnish farm- ers with funds with which they could pay off their mortgages. \ The two mortgagees specifically mentioned in Davis ' action were Elnier P. Smith , the executor of an estate which holds a $2 , 000 mort- gage on the plaintiff' s property and M. f K. Harkins . who holds a $3 ,000 mortgage, .Both had started foreclosure pro- ceedings because the p laintiff was in default in interest and tax pay- ments.

To accomplish , thi s you must own land, have wareh ouses , side-tracks , equi p- ! m em and employ much lahor. You pay taxes on your land and buildings and you cm- I pl oy ninny iiicii to operate your eqiii pi ' iieiit and handle your materials and the finished j pr oduct. These men , in t urn , hel p pay taxes by owning their own homes or b y renting i hous es to live in. They spend their money in local stores and, in stead of being on relief i anil spending the taxpaye rs money, they pay taxes and contribute lo the local expenses. j Vou , as manufacturers , ' pr ovide a ureal deal of work and reduce the unemployment situa- ti on. In addition lo that your product costs no more iliau others , is a bett er product , und the m oney ' paid out b y the fa rmers for fertilizer fo you is hanked here , paid ou t for taxes here, spent for salaries and wages, an d. for the most part, all the money i s put in circulation ri gh t here. \ \You pur chase our potatoes and ship them to outside points .

A gain labor i s needed to bundle this cauliflower. j \S elf preservation is the fi rst law of nature ' s and we should all buy l ocally and sell ! locally to our mutual benefit. Never mind the promises and inducements of outsiders, don ' t let u s worry about a representative of an outside fertilizer company who is working on a commission. He employs no lahor and his office is in his hat. Everv dollar we spend with him goes outside of this community. He pays no taxes here. He supports n o local projects, puts nothing into the community and after making hi s sales he departs wi lh the profits. I wish I could gel this argument home to all the farmers. \ We thank this man for his expression of a partial solution to our economic prob- lem s and we are publishing hi s statement for you to read. We feel sure that many more farmers feel the same way about things and we pled ge ourselves to continue to do every- thing in our power to aid and assist in local a (fairs for our mutual success.

Middle RoailLA Harrison Ave. • Tel . 2239 R - KIVERHE AD An effort to put the county farm at Yaphank , an adjunct of the Suf- folk County Home , on a self-sus- taining: basis , will be made by Pub- lie Welfare Commissioner Irving Wil . 'iams who assumed his new du- ties last Wednesday. Williams , a resident of Ii ibylou , moved his family and belongine, -* Ui YuphanU Thursday, and immedi ateiy plunged into a survey for the purpose of deciding on reeom- mendations to the county authori- ties. His plan is to make the fnr.ii self-supporting by selling produce to the county sanatorium at Holts- ville and to the county jail at Itiv- erh ead. He said he does not pro- pose to go into the open market to compete with taxpayers , but added that milk , butter , eggs and vegeta- bles produced on the farm sup- ported by taxpayers should be sold to public institutions in an effort to help reduce the burden of taxa- tion. Other definite ideas that Com- ; missioner Williams has arc placing the administration of relief under the State Department of Social Sci- ence, and replacing the infirmary i and home buildings with modern : structures. Grand juries during the past year : have made similar recqmmenda- ! lions in presentments handed up to j the Supreme Court.
