WEST SIDE MOTORISTS
IOIN TO ENFORCE LAW
Believe Remedy Lies with Auto.
mobilists Themselves

An organization Of automobile owners
to promote the .strict observance by
motor drivers of all traffic regulations
will be formed at a meeting IN the
Hotel Majestic or Friday. The or
oanization will be known as the West
Side Auto Owners Law and Order
The idea of the league originated
with Copeland Townsend, of the Ma
iestic. About 100 owners of machines
have agreed TO join.
There is growing resentment
against reckless driving" said Mr.
Townsend yesterday in explaining the
leagues purposes, land until automo-
bile owners themselves band together
10 discourage disobedience Of the city's
laws there will continue TO be adverse
legislation that will ultimately deprive
owning an automobile of most OF its
Joys. II is the aim of this organization
10 disseminate information to new pur-
ehasers Of automobiles which will save
them trouble in the future"

JAPANESE HELD IN THEFT
Former Butler Accused Of Stealing
Silyerware of His Employer

Mon Tanaki, formerly butler, was
arrested yesterday by Detectives Fitz-
gerald and Curley, of the Second
Branch Bureau, as he emerged from a
pawnshop at Thirty-fourth Street and
Third Avenue. Later he was taken to
Police Headquarters, where he is held
to await the action of the police au-
thoritcs of Newark.
Fitzgerald, who was in the pawnshop
when the Japanese pawned quantity
of silverware for $50, followed him to
the street, where he questioned him.
Tanah protested, according to the po-
lice. that the ware belonged to himself
and his wife. Further questioning by
Fitzgerald led Tanaki to admit, accord
ing to the detective, that the silver
ware was the property of J. II. Gill
more. of 761 High Street, Newark, in
whose home he had been employed.
Tanaki, the detectives say, told them
he mad disposed of some OF the silver
in Chinatown and part of it was hidden
in a hotel in this city.

Tirpitz and Falkenhayn
Sought HOllWeg'S Place

Berlin, Nov. 1.-THE executive COM
mittee Of the National Radical party
to-day concluded two days session
here devoted to discussion of the
party policy in the past and outlining
tactics for its representatives in the
Reichstag in the future.
The committee adopted, with one dis
senting voice, resolution approving
the action of its Reichstag representa-
tives, who supported the Imperial Chan
cellor almost solidly during the recent
crisis, and condemning intrigues against
the Chancellor.
Friedrich Won Payer, the South Ger
man Radical leader in the Reichstag,
discussed the submarine crisis without
mincing words. He arraigned the Con-
servatives and Pan Germans for their
atten pit to get rid of an "inconvenient'
Chancellor by means of an ostensibly
patriotic agitation.
He said the government had dis
played no laok of force in combating
the movement for unrestricted subma-
rne warfare, supported by the Con-
servatlvcs, PAM Germans and volun-
teers from other parties, including IN
dividual Radicals, who periodically be-
lieved that it was necessary 10 wage
war against England with all available
weapons, even at the cost of provoking
a crisis in the Chancellorship.
The agitation against the Chancellor
and in favor of unrestricted submarine
warfare, said Herr Won Payer. had
passed the food and had lost much of
its interest, now that two candidates
for DR.. Won manufactures shoes,
Admiral Won Tirpitz and General Won
Falkenhayn, had been eliminated
through their own fault and the course
of fate.
The Reichstag had decided to place:
the submarine policy in the hands OF
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg.

FEEBLE MINDED HOST
GROWING, DOCTOR SAYS
State Is Urged to Provide Better
Care

Feeble minded persons are becoming
more numerous, DR.. Thomas W. Salmon
told the Society of Medical Jurispru.
dence last night at the Academy Of
Medicine. Efforts to combat the evil
also are increasing, he said, twelve
states having organized commissions In
the last three years and universities
having established training schools for
teachers for the feeble minded.
"The methods for detecting feeble
mindedness," he explained, "are more
for lawyers and judges than for physi-
clans. The state should care for the
feeble minded to save them from
criminal lives when they become ma
ture in years"
DR.. Thomas is medical director Of the
National Committee for Mental Hygiene
and of the Advisory Board Of Chill
dren's Hospitals and Schools, Randalls
Island. His paper was discussed by
Mrs. Mary Paddon. executive secretary
of the Magdalen Home; George c. Aus
tin, formerly counsel to the Manhattan
State Hospital, and DR.. William B: Cor
nell, medical director of the Children's
Hospitals and Schools, Randalls Island.

British Permission Necessary for
New Austrian Envoy

Vienna, Nov. 13.-The time for the
departure of the new Austro-Hun-
garian Ambassador to the United
States, Count Adam Won Tarnow Tar

fixed. but he is not likely to leave for

be made.
That Count Tarnowski is going "a,
Washington pleases all circles here and
at Budapest, as he is considered the
man best suited for the post, apart
from the fact that he is one of the most

filled again and hope that the new am
bassador will succeed in fostering not
only good relations. but also the rignt
impression concerning the monarcnys
position and objects in the war.

CUPID'S BUREAU OUSTED
BY BARON ASTOR'S AID
Matrimonial Agency Must Leave
West End Avenue

William Waldorf Aston. late o. New
York and later of London and Baron
of Hever Castle, has succeeded, after
three years of effort, in routing the
matrimonial agency established at $50
West End Avenue by the late Herr
Fritz Podzsus, matchmaker for the
lonely. News that Cupid" Podzsus's
successor, the Nueva Esperanto Soci-
ETY., would have TO move as result oil
foreclosure proceedings brought Ella
ton to residents OF the exclusive neigh
borhood yesterday, TO whom the big
signs of the matrimonial agency and
of tailor in the basement of the resi-
dence at 1856 have long been an eye
sore.
The foreclosure OF a mortgage for
$4,000 on the property is result or
the fact that Johann Ringlau, who was
Cupid" Podzsus's partner, has been
for two years at the front in Europe,
acting as cook for the Kaiser's soldiers
in the field. When he failed to meet
payments. Henry A. Smith foreclosed,
and the property was sold at auction
yesterday. 1t was bought b. the City
Real Estate Company, acting for Baron
Aston The price is said to have been
$4,000.
Baron Astor's interest in acquiring
the property and ousting the matri-
monial agency lies in the fact that he
owns the exclusive Apthorpe apart
ments and other residence properties
in the vicinity Of West End Avenue,
Broadway, Seventy-eighth and Sew
enty-ninth streets, and desires TO keep
the neighborhood clear Of trade, and
especially to remove from the gaze OF

DIVORCE GRANTED
MRS. ROBERT REID
Model for Paintings That
Won Him Fame Asks
Custody of Twins

Nyack, y. Y, Nov. 13.-Some Of the
friends OF Robert Reid, mural and por-
trait painter and national academician
OF New York--if not all of them-will
be surprised to learn that an inter
locutory decree of divorce was granted
to-day to mis- wife, Mrs. Elizabeth Reid,
by Supreme Court Justice Arthur S.
Tompkins. Mr.. Reid, who has been
separated from his wife for more than
year, did not oppose the action.
Mrs. Reid asks alimony of $3.50
month and the custody of her twin
sons, who are FIVE years of age. She
says that her husband has an income
Of 100000 a year.
The romance wnicn led to Robert
Reds marriage in 1907 10 Elizabeth
Reeves, one of his models, began when
he painted "A Portrait Sketch" and
"Violets," in both of which canvases
she was the subject. The pictures
were placed on exhibition in the Mont
ross Galleries here and were greatly
admired. The wedding took place at
Longmeadow, the home OF the brlue-
groom's brother. in Massachusetts,.
Reid was forty-four years of age at the
time of his marriage.
Reid became famous for his mural
paintings, one of the best known being
his decoration in the Congressional LII
brary, at Washington.
Bob" Reds dinner at his studio,
142 East Thirty-third Street, in 1905,
will be recalled by many of his artist
friends. Fifteen girls from the at Hap
pened in Nordland" company helped to
make the evening enjoyable for his
guests. Fortune was tickle with Mr..
Reid in 1909, for he filed petition in
bankruptcy that year, with liabilities
stated as S1s,244 and assets at Sl2,45O.
