Doctor Defends Self
In Draft Fraud Trial

DR.. Philip Becker, Of 145 West
own defence yesterday afternoon in
the Federal District Court, where he
is being tried before Judge Foster on
charge of conspiring with Harry
Walters, former National Guards
man, to supply drugs to men in the
army which would produce symptoms
of Bright's disease and therefore Sc
cure their discharge.
DR.. Becker, who is also lawyer,
fatty denied that he had entered into
any agreement with Walters, and told
in detail of his acquaintance with the
former soldier. He said that prior to
the time Walters went to Spartanburg
with the Twelfth Regiment he had
treated him for heart disease and other
ailments. He identified the prescrip-
tions given by Walters to soldiers as
his, but insisted that they had been
given to Walters some time before for
his own use. He said that the marked
money found by the agents of the
Military Intelligence Bureau at his
home was given to him by Walters to
purchase medicine which the latter
needed and not as payment for a pre-
scription which might enable men to
evade draft service. The money, he
said, he had placed III a separate en-
velope, marked Harry Walters" and
"for medicine"
Dr. Becker will be crosse examined
by United States Attorney Garrett
Cotter to-day.

Worne,1's Clubs
Urged to Expel
All Pro-(zerra1aras
Wilson, Whitman and Hy-
Ian Asked to Help Sup
press Teuton Print

Certain New York women will find
themselves without clubs if the local
women's clubs adopt the suggestion
made yesterday by the committee for
the suppression of all things German.
This committee, composed of woman
members of the American Defence So
ciety, is dedicated to the task of purg-
ing the United States of all things
Germanic. When the committee met
at the Hotel McAlpin yesterday with
the American Relief Legion, both
bodies specialized on the suppression
of pro-German members of New York
women's clubs.
A resolution was passed unani-
mously asking all local women's or
CARNATIONS to expel German SYM
pathizers.
Mrs. Oliver Cromwell Field, chait-
man of the committee, said:
"The mems clubs of New York have
set the example; they have ousted the
kaisers friends. 1t is now time for
the women's clubs to act.
'The need of such action was shown
saturday when clubwoman tried to
prevent the New York Federation Of
Women's Clubs from adopting resolu-
tions demanding the suppression of
German-language newspapers.
Fortunately there are comparative
ly few admirers of the Kaiser in the
women's clubs of New York. But those
who are members are in a position to
do a great deal ef harm No time
should be lost in putting them out"
A resolution was addressed to Presi-
dent Wilson, Governor Whitman and
Mayor Hylan asking them to use their
influence toward the suppression of all
German print in America.
Copies of this resolution will be sent
over the country for the signatures OF
members of similar defence organiza-
tlons.
Members of the committee applaud
ed the announcement that the New
Rochelle Council had forbidden the
sale of German newspapers on penalty
of $50 fine and six months imprison-
ment.
Because one South Orange, N. j.,
newsdealer refused to discontinue the
sale of German papers the village
trustees passed an ordinance forbid
ding the distribution of German print.
New-York tribune., 1918-05-09

to stamp out the menace of war OBJ
structionists who have by disloyal acts
or utterances interfered with the mill
tary programme, Chief Charles De
Woody of the Department of Justice
is preparing for wholesale roundup
of this dangerous element.
1t is known that agents of the De-
partment Of Justice have investigated
hundreds in the New York district,
many of them women who have been
spreading the worst kind of propa-
ganda. Because Of the fact that these
women are American citizens the gov
ernment has been unable to act against
them. 1t is thought in Federal circles
that g complete roundup Of women
about the best hotels in New York will
be the first step taken toward breaking
up the propaganda ring.
Not only in New York but in nearby
cities and towns have these persons
been working. Leading citizens, some
