CLEMENCEAJ AGAINST CHANGE IN PEACE TREATY
vON KREBS TALKS TO NEWS
MAN; SAY HE WILL FIGHT CASE

few questions, in which he claimed
he was perfectly sane but wanted
only fair play, was turned over to the
Middlesex county men to be brought
here for trial.
Talks to News Man
When Won Krebs will be tried
could not be learned this morning. In
a talk with an EVENING NEWS
representative Won Krebs stated he
would secure Walter Suydam, of this
city, as his attorney. Suydam was
later questioned as to whether or not
he would represent Won Krebs and
would neither admit nor deny he had
taken the case over.
AS all of the cells in the Jail here
are alike. none being stronger than
another, Won Krebs was locked up in
one of the regular cages" but War
den Goodwin declared close watch
would be kept over him. Won Krebs
made no trouble last night, being very
quiet, and this morning in talking
with the NEWS reporter, told some-
thing of his life before he was ar
rested on the murder charge.
He denied emphatically that he was
guilty of the murder, declaring that
he was in New York when the shoot
ing occurred. Richie, he claimed, had
twice threatened his life, however, and
he declared Riehle's wife also was
in constant fear of him.

Scouting is a religion of right think
ing and acting, in which boys do
things constructive which put him on
the map as a good citizen and an
American at heart, was the declara-
ton made last night by III. A. Groes-
beck, national deputy field scout COM
missioner, speaking before joint
meeting of the local scout council and
the Liberty Loan workers, which was
held in city hall for the purpose OF
formulating preliminary plans and ell
fecting an organization to conduct
properly the campaign here during
Boy Scout week. starting June and
Terminating Flag Day, June II. the
object of which is to raise $4,000, so
that scouting activities here may pc
suitably carried on during the ensuing
year.
Great enthusiasm for the work and
optimism concerning the success OF
the drive were expressed on all sides
by those present, most of whom are
skilled in campaigning for funds. .
Adrian Lyon, who was appointed
chairman of the local citizens COM
mittee, which will have direct super
vision of the drive, explained TO the
men the lines along which they would
work. The campaign throughout the
country will be linked up with the
Liberty Loan organization in prac-
tically every city so that at the out
set experienced men would have
charge of affairs. Similar plans to
those utilized in the government
loans will be in effect. teams under
captains making house to house can
vases in the various districts into
which the city has been divided.
Chairman Lyon said that they want
ed the entire organization completed
and ready for the opening gun on
Sunday so that no time be lost. and
he announced that practically all the
workers during the loan fotations
had consented to serve again. 1t was
learned this morning that nearly
enough men had volunteered for the
captaincies Of teams.
Chairman Lyon urged that every
one cooperate with the citizens COM
mittee in putting this drive across
successfully since campaign is lost
or won according to the weakness or
strength of the organization before
the work begins.

NEW BRUNSWICK, June e.
Richard Won Krebs, arrested May %
in New York City, charged with the
murder of Mrs. Annie Richie and
|atrocious assault and battery upon
her husband, Henry Richie, at Deans,
on December 6, 1914, was brought to
the county Jail here from the Tombs,
in New York, yesterday afternoon.
Won Krebs arrived here at 5:12 in
the custody of Richard A. Peltier,
chief of the county detectives, and
Court officer Peter Sweikert.
The two officers from the prosecu-
tors Office went to New York yester-
day morning, taking with them two
warrants from Governor Smith. of
New York, giving permission to bring
the accused man to this state.
Won Krebs refused to accompany
the officers, declaring he had been
sentenced to thirty days in the Tombs
as a fugitive of justice and that he
could not be taken out of there be-
fore that time.
The man demanded to be taken to
the district attorney. His request was
complied with but the district attor-
ney told him Supreme Court Justice
McElroy was the one to make his
complaint to. Won Krebs was taken

LONG WRANGLE
ON COPS TRIALS
Clark Starts Something About
Way In Which Cases Are
Tried.

After getting off to a late start-it
being 10 o'clock before they opened
their meeting-the Board of Alder
men last night held a session which
proved to be hot in more ways than
one. The main topic of the night
brought forth the most discussion was
the matter of the trial of Patrolmen
Chris Hansen and stephen Grega.
Both men had been suspended from
the force for violations of the regula-
tons covering their actions, but both
were given q trial before the police
committee OF the Aldermen and their
cases disposed of before the fact that
the men had been suspended was
brought before the Board at a regu-
lar meeting.
Alderman John j. Clark led the op-
position, claiming that the committee
on police had no right to try the case
before the charges had been heard by
the Board as whole, that the charges
were not properly made out not hav-
ing an affidavit attached and that lat
er that the information given the
committee by the City Attorney was
contrary to the rules under which the
men should be tried.
The police committee reported that
Grega had pleaded guilty to the
charges made against him and that
he had been fined fourteen days pay
for the offense. The report of the
committee was confirmed. all of the
aldermen with the exception of Clark
and Patten, voting in favor of the con-
firmation.
Alderman Clark then asked for the
result of Hansen's trial. Chairman
Wilson of the police committee, in
formed the Alderman from the fifth
ward that his committee would make
report to the chief of police, but
not to the board. Upon Alderman
Clark making a motion that the OUT
come of the trial be made known to
the members of the board. Chairman
Wilson consented to read the report.
In it Patrolinan Hansen is fined seven
days pay owing to the fact that it was
his first offense after eighteen years
on the police force.

GET VOLUNTEERS

FOR BOY SCOUTS
Enthusiasm Runs High at the
Meeting Held Last Night at
City Hall.
Lyon for Cooperation
IN Boy Scout W ork
June 2, 1919.

June z, 1919.
To the Citizens of Perth Amboy.
My Friends:
Former Secretary of the Treas
ury William G. McAdoo, chair
man of the Citizens National
membership campaign, has urged
the Liberty Loan and similar or
ganizations to support the move
ment, and Acting Governor Run
yon, state chairman, has made a
similar request.
In turn I desire to carry along
to you. their urgent message and
to earnestly request your support.
The natural impulse, of course,
will be to say that the demands
have been many and great. That
is true. But the times are extra
ordinary and brought about by
the greatest war IN history. Amer
lea has suffered little compared
: with other countries. The import
ance of the Boy Scout movement
ment Is not only a. recognition of
what they did but Is to put the
organization on a sound basis.
Money put into the Boy Scout
movement Is money invested In
American citizenship. 1t Will
bring larger returns tnan any
other similar investment. 1t is an
insurance for the future against
anarchy, now commonly called
Bolshevism. To help this cause
is one of the highest forms OF
patriotism. AS many as are the
demands no one can afford not to
give something.
Perth Amboy must secure ESQ
members at one dollar each and
100000 to establish the work
and carry it to July, 1920. May
we not appeal to your patriotism
and to your civic pride? 1t is
most worthy cause and its success
will add yet another laurel to our
city.
Yours cordially,
ADRIAN LYON,
Chairman.

PACT REVISION
BEING DELAYED
At CONFERENCE
Nothing Definite Is Expected
to Develop Until After
Joint Session.


PARIS, June 3:-The atmosphere
in peace conference circles was full
of speculation today as to possible
notifications in several clauses of
the treaty with Germany but nothing
tangible is expected to develop until
the outcome of the joint meeting of
allied experts becomes known. 1t Is
understood that Premier Clemenceau
maintains a firm attitude against any
revision of the treaty.
Experts on territorial questions and
reparations met with the Council of
Four this forenoon. 1t is understood
that the clauses of the Austrian peace
treaty dealing with reparation now
have been completed.
The council of foreign ministers met
this afternoon and again considered
the revision of the treaty of 1889, re-
garding Belgian neutrality.
Another German Memorandum.
BERLIN, June 3-Professor Hans
Delbrueck, General Count Max Mont
gelas and Professor Weber, German
experts at Versailles, have drawn up
a long Memorandum on the question
of responsibility for the war which
will be presented as a reply to the
entente commissions report on the
subject.
The memorandum says the German
government should not accept the eff
forts for Sir Edward Grey, the Brit
ish secretary for foreign affairs in
1914, who offered to mediate because
doubted his powers to check the war
like aspirations of Russia. Emperor
Nicholas proposal to refer the dis
pute to the Hague also failed, it is
said, because the same day that the
proposal was made, the mobilization
of thirteen army corps was ordered
Russia's imperialist policy the memo
randum argues made war with Ger
many inevitable.
1t says that Germany's war against
France was one of defense and admits
Germany's naval policy was of such
nature as to arouse the distrust of
Great Britain.
The magistrates of 200 German mu-
inequalities, with populations totalling
80 million have signed an appeal on
behalf of the German cities to the
American people protesting against
the peace terms and demanding "a
peace of justice" such as was prom
ised on the basis of President Will
sons principles.
A number of American born women
who have become German subjects by
marriage are signing a similar appeal
to the women of America. This ap-
peal protests also against the contin-
uance of the blockade.
