today of heart trouble on the Danish
island of Funen in the Baltic sea.
He had been staying in Copenhagen
as the guest of DR.. Maurice Egan, the
American minister, in order to begin

by the British press to attacks made
by Mr.. Collier upon the Fatherland in

Mr.. Collier was sharply criticised
by the American press two years ago

tended that a monarchy is much more
efficient and in every way more desir-
able than a republic.
Less than a year ago Mr.. Collier
published a book entitled England
and the English" in which he made
disparaging references to the Ger
mans. Diplomatic complications
threatened when the German foreign
ministry announced that it would have
the book Officially read" but nothing
came of the incident.
Mr.. Collier who was SO years of
age, was a member of several New
