Director Who Has Been Cause
OF Dissention

BERLIN, July 16-The principals
chorus and stage hands Of the German
Opera House at CharlGttenburg. after
five days strike, have forced the re-
tirement of Otto Neumann Hofer, its
directorgeneral, with whom the en-
ployes had been in conflict for several
years. The forces of the Opera
houses numbering five hundred went
on strike without warning.
Socialist memo rs of the Chariot
tenburg town council espoused the
cause of the strikers and demanded
that the Board of Directors remove
Herr Hofer Realizing the futility of
further resistance, he resigned. 1t
was charged that he consistently op-
posed all social reforms in favor of
the employees and was unyielding in
his discipline.
The incident was one of the most
sensational episodes in the history Of
German grand opera and the occur
ence would have been impossible un-
der the old political dispensaton.
