DR.. Richter Arrested
AS Loyal to Germany
Royal Imperial Pharmacolo-
gist" Would Keep Oath
as Teuton Reservist

DR.. August Richter, who advertised
himself as the royal high imperial
pharmacologist of the German army,
was arrested yesterday at his home at
Stub Oaks, near Peekskill, and brought
to the New York Enemy Alien Bureau
as a dangerous enemy alien. He was
committed to the Essex County Jail
pending internment.
DR.. Richter came to this country
nine years ego and had an Office at
1777 Broadway. He is highly educated
and received degree from a German
university. In 1915 he applied for
citizenship papers, which, he declared,
he would not accept after the United
States entered the war. He said that
he was loyal to Germany, and that his
conscience had adjusted itself after the
Federal government had announced
that no Germans would be naturalized
for the period of the war.
He explained that this had nulliied
his declaration OF intentions and left
him free to be in full sympathy with
the cause of the Teutonic powers
81 am ever loyal to Germany" he
said to Captain Hull, "and if the in
vading army of Germany landed in the
United States / would not forget nv
oath as a true German reservist."
1t is understood that his arrest was
brought about by the authorities of
Westchester County because thew
feared action by his neighbors. He
had bitterly opposed the war pro-
gramme, and, it was said, insulted Lib
erty Loan workers when they asked
him to subscribe. He is thirty-eight
years old and has an Office in the
Telegraph Building, at 253 Broadway.

sider the question of organized oppo-
sitlon to the Hearst papers at a meet
ing on Tuesday at the headquarters of

mittee.
1t was stated at the Offices of the

was added
A prominent official Of the board of
trustees of the society, a professional
man of countrywide note, in speak
ing, of Tuesdays meeting, said:
Il most assuredly welcome an inves-
tigation into the Hearst papers. feel
that it is something which has long
been overdue and should be painstak-
'ngly undertaken. For my own part, I
will push matters along until some
definite and effective action is taken"
The speaker declared that while very
good reasons prompted him to with
hold his identity for the present, he
Will make u public statement at the
proper time.
"The movement against Hearst re-
ceived a most patriotic impetus at an
anti -disloyalty meeting in Carnegie
Hall in November" The continued. "At
the meeting, held under the auspices
of the American Defence Society and
other purely patriotic organizations,
James M. Beck made denunciation Of
Hearst which no patriotic American
can well ignore.
THE American Defence Society re-
printed Mr.. Beck's address in pamphlet
form and has distributed thousands of
copies throughout the country"
