DROP PEACE DISTURBER
German Societies Fail to Keep
Koelble as Board Member.

The United German Societies OF New
York failed to re-elect Alphonse @. koelble,
the member who caused the disturbance at
the Carnegie Hall peace meeting several
weeks ago, to the board of governors of
the organization when IL met to elect OFF,
GERS on Friday night. Mr.. koelble Insisted
yesterday that the peace disorder had moth
ing to do with his defeat-that he had been
ousted through the influence OF Theodore
Sutro, president OF the German Societies,
who was trying to prevent him from bring
ing into the Organization the German
American Citizens League. Of which he
was the head.
Mr. Sutro did not deny last night that ne
had been opposed 10 koelble's reelection
but added that IL was the general repuS-
nance which the Germans OF this city felt
for his act at the peace meeting that had
actually accomplished his downfall. No
self-respecting German he said, would have
abused the courtesy of an invitation In That
manner.
ut was entirely uncaled for" Mr. Sutro
declared. 1T was an improper thing FOR
him TO mount the platform In the nrst
place. Then for him TO pose as repre-
sentative Of the Germans, asking the house
20 do the opposite of what the gentlemen
on the platform had been invited for, was
inexcusable OF course, you know I agree
with him that Germany should be Included
in the arbitration treaties, but don't agree
in his method Of trying to bring about that
result"
