PUTS ONE OVER"
 ON SON-IN-LAW
Senator O,Gorman Has His Man Ap- pointed Surveyor of Port of
 New York,

Washington, Aug. s. - Senator O'Gorman put one over" on his son. in-law, Dudley Field Malone, Collec- tor of the Port of New York, on Secretary of Commerce Redfield of Brooklyn and on Representative Fitzgerald and the Brooklyn delega- tion when, despite their opposition, ne came to an agreement yesterday with Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo over the post of Surveyor Of the Port of New York.
 His choice for the place is Thomas E. Rush, transfer tax attorney in the office of the Comptroller of New York. MT. Rush always has been an organization democrat and never, it is said here, has bolted a ticket, though he has been independent in- side the party lines.
 MT. Rush, it was learned last night, has positive assurance from Secretary McAdoo of his appointment.
 It was asserted here that the selec- ton of MT. Rush by Secretary Me- Adoo illustrates a tendency to en- courage the rank and file of the Dem- ocratic organization of Tammany and win them away from their present leaders.
 Collector Malone was backing John Eastmond of Brooklyn for the Sur veyorship, while. Secretary Redfelo, Representative Fitzgerald and the Brooklyn delegation all had lined up behind Robert Fuller and thought they had the job landed for him.
 The place pays $s,000 a year and is regarded as one of the most desirable of the Federal plums in New York City, the work attached to the office being far from onerous.

RITTER BACKS UP
 CERMANY'S ACTION Served in Army During Franco
 PIuSSian War in 1870.

William Ritter, secretary and man. ager of the Cremo Brewing company, in an interview concerning the Euro pean war in which Germany figures so prominently, states that in his opin- ion the general sentiment of people in this country is against Kaiser Will helm and against the German nation when, as matter of justice, they should be more liberal in their views and look at both sides of the question.
 Is German War Veteran.
 Before coming to this country many years ago MT. Ritter was d soldier in the German army and took part in many of the memorable bat ties which marked the Franco-Prus- sian War in 1870. At the present time MT. Ritter has five nephews fight ing in the Kaisers army.
 MT. Ritter states that in his opin- ion Germany had no alternative but to declare war against the other European powers because of the fact that each and every one of them was hiding it's time and awaiting an opportune moment to fly at Ger many's throat.
 Regarding France.
 Lorraine and Alsace, which cities MT. Ritter states are the cause of France taking part in the war. were gwen to Germany at the close of the Franco-Prussian War as an indem- nifty, but since that time they have ranked in the breasts Of the French men who have been looking for such 8. time as they could strike to obtain them once more. "Bu4" says Mr. Ritter, these cities should belong to Germany because they were German possessions 100 years ago-even be-, fore they fell into the hands of France These provinces are inhabited by Ger man people and should be governed by Germany he states.
 Had to Invade Belgium.
 In reference to Germany's violating Belgium's neutrality MT. Ritter says that the Kaiser's forces were com .pelled to do this in order to get the jump on their opponents If Ger many had not tried to seize this property the other powers would have done so, and accordingly Germany would have been deprived of an ad- vantageous stronghold.
