Nobel Prize Winner
Dies From Poisoning
DR.. Braun, Unregistered Ger

County Hospital

DR.. FerdiDand Braun, joint winner
with Guglielmo Marconi of the Nobel
prize in 1909 and an unregistered Ger
man, died Saturday night atk ings
County Hospital, where he had been
taken from his sons home, at POS Mid
wood Street, Brooklyn, suffering from
morphine poisoning. DR.. Braun suf-
fered from heart trouble, and it is be-
leved that he took an overdose in
endeavorlng to overcome an attack.
He was taken to the hospital On
Friday morning On Saturday evening
man. who claimed to be his attor-
ney, called up the Snyder Avenue po-
lice station and asked permission to
remove the man to the German Hos
pital. Permission was refused A
few hours later DR.. Braun was dead.
Neighbors of the Brauns. in Flatbush,
knew the old man as teacher of music.
They said that he was kindly and
gentle and fond of children. None of
them ever suspected that the old Ger
man had once been awarded the Nobel
prize. This went to him and Marconi
because of the achievements of both in
the cause Of wireless telegraphy.
DR.. Braun was siXty-eight years old
and was for years professor of physics
in the University OF Strassburg. In
1914 he came to this country to testify
in suit between the Marconi company
and the German company that operated
the wireless stations at Sayville and

British Women Demand
More Rights in Court
Associated Press Correspondence>

LONDON, March 2O.-British women
are demanding greater consideration
from the courts. The Council of the
National Women's Suffrage Society has
adopted a resolution protesting
against the attitude of the bench and
prosecuting counsels in recent cases in
which soldiers guilty of murder or
brutal attacks upon their wives have
been discharged or condemned to mere
ly nominal punishment, on the ground
Of allegations of the immoral conduct
of their victims"
The council denounced "the assump-
ton involved that married woman is
chattel. without rights to the full pro-
lection Of the law. and that violence
and brutality of husband toward his
wife may be condoned on such
grounjs'
A resolution also was adopted pledg-
ing the society in its work for the po-
litical equality of women with men to
to keep especially in mind the dis
franchised women wage earners, whose
economic interests will be so vitality
affected by the reconstruction in which
they will not have the same political
share as the employers and male wage
earner5.
The existing laws rs to parenthood
were condemned by the council in an
other resolution. The executive COM
mittee was directed to suggest plan
to improve the position of unmarried
mothers and illegitimate children.

F Famous Dutch Writer
Defends u. S. Policy
[Stof Correspondeuce1

WASHINGTON, April 2O.-Diplo-
matte correspondence made public here
to-day contains an interesting defence
OF President Wilson's policies by dis
tlngulshed Dutch writer, Professor +
De Louter, in a contributed article to
the international Christendom. Pro-
fessor Louter wrote:
German recklessness and lack of
foresight are responsible for this new
enemy. Germany sees in other states
either weaklings whom she can out
rage with lnpunity, destined to follow
willy nilly the path laid down hv the
great powers. or opponents, whom she
must incorporate or render harmless
to secure freedom of action for her
selt The United States, on the other
hand, dlscerns in other states with
cver-growlng consciousness indepen-
dent entities with gifts, customs and
capacities OF their own. whom she must
convince of the need of joint activities
TOR the we'll being of the whole COM
munity.
Setting aside the frequency and ver-
bosity of President Wilson'S messages
and speeches, and despite the ir-
REPUTABLE fact that the millions Of
Americans are no angels and many ere
actuated by motives of sefishness and
ambition, | came to the conclusion,
after reading numerous American cx-
pressions of opinion. that amid the
meaningless medley of cheers arising
from the throats of the masses the
American government was actuated by
the most upright motives-the main
tenance Of right and justice without
bravado, ambition or domination, in
the interest primarily of their own
people, but also for the whole of hu-
manity and with firm determination
20 raise on the ruins of decadent
world a new international bond of
nations resting on a basis OF right and
humanity"
Although the writer thus justifes
the action Of the United States, he is
by no means unqualified in his ap-
proval. In particular he finds the neu-
trails bitterly disappointing. But, he
says, "in no case can the incomplete
and improper application of great
principles by noble but fallible gov
ernment lead TO misconstruction of
its clean motives and fine feelings"

tional Work

James A. Scrymser, president of the
Mexican and the Central and South

at his home yesterday at the age Of
seventy-nine.
After serving through the Civil War,
Mr.. Scrymser organized in 1865 the
international Ocean Telegraph Com
,pany, operating a cable line between
the United States and Cuba, West In
dies and South America. A few years
later he organized the two telegraph
companies Of which he was president
at the time of his death.
Active in educational matters. Mr..
Scrymser established the first system
of vacation schools in this city. He
fathered the amendment to the New
York State Constitution prohibiting
the use of public funds for sectarian
education, and advocated the enlarge
ment of the school accommodations in
this city, on which $5O,000,0OO has
since been spent. lie also was active
IN philanthropic work.
Greatest of his achievements was the
establishment of an American-owned
cable route between the United States
and BaYil. This work was accom-
plished in 1917 after more than forty
eight years of effort During the last
year the line has proved of immense
strategic value.
Born in 1889, Mr.. Scrymser was grad
uated from College Hill Academy,
Poughkcepsie, in 1856, and at the out
break of the Civil War enlisted in the
18th New York Infantry. Later he

"Baldy' Smith and fought in all of the
engagements in which the Sixth Army
Corps was concerned.
At the time of his death the COM
panies which he headed had established d
l4,300 miles of cable and $500 miles
on land wire.
Mr.. Scrymser also was we'll known
for his charitable enterprises. He was
a generous contributor to the Red
Cross and a vice president of the Asso-
citation for Improving the Condition Of

Ralph Goodhue- Trust Magnate

Ralph Goodhue- Trust Magnate
Ralph Goodhue, formerly one of
the well known farmers of Donnelly
township, is trust magnate engaged
in promoting a combination in re-
straint of trade, if the Hennepin
county grand jury is to be believed.
Ralph has the physique of the typical
trust magnate, and if promoting
movements for the benefit of the
farmers is a violation of the anti
trust laws, then he should have been
indicted several times, for there new
er was a good thing that Ralph
didn't boost along.
Mr.. Goodhue, who is now a large
dairy farmer at Dennison, was select
ed for Indictment because he is one
of the officers of the Twin City Milk
Producers Association, an organiza-
ton of the farmers-or rather some
of the farmers-who operate dairy
farms near the twin cities and sell
milk to twin city distributors. AS
we remarked last week, there is some
thing wrong with the law or it's ap-
plication under which public
spirited men like Ralph Goodhue
should have to deIend themselves
for their action in promoting all or
binary business association of farm
erS.

FARM BUREAU MUST BE
ORGANIZED BY FEB. ]
C. F. Kirk Delegated To Finish Sc
curing Members in Stevens
County

A very insistent request has been
sent out by Secretary of Agricul-
ture, David F. Houston, and the AS
sistant Secretary that every agricul-
tural county in the country must be
prepared to employ an agricultural
agent by February 1.
The urgency of this is made evil
dent in the fact that Mr.. G. F. Kirk
of Morris, has been appointed under
the emergency and delegated to Ste
vens county to assist the temporary
organization committee in the coun-
ty in securing the required two-hun
dred members stipulated by the
board of County Commissioners.
The general organization commit
tee in the county consists of two men
selected in each commissioner dis
trict. Mr.. Kirk is to work with and
assist these men. He is under in
structions to aid in completing the
organization in the county as one of
the means of promoting the nation
al security and defense as author
lied by the Food Production Act as
passed by Congress, August 10, 1917.
The counties of the state have
made most remarkable progress in
completing their organizations and
getting ready for action before the
beginning of the next crop produc-
ton year. In fact, at the present
time all but eight counties in the
state have either completed their or
CARNATIONS or are in process of so
doing. The earlier action can be
taken by Stevens county, the better
opportunity they have of finding a
suitable man to be employed in the
position of agricultural agent, and
the more thoroughly can plans OF
work be outlined for the coming
year to aid the nation with refer
ence to outstanding agricultural
needs.
