Urges investigation OF
Cernaun-An,eyicG Leagsse

The American Defence Society yes
terday urged Attorney General Edward
j Brundage, of Illinois, to investigate
Citizens League which was recently
organized in Chicago and whose mem
bership is limited to persons Of Ger
man extraction. This action is re-
quested with view of ascertaining
whether the new organization is a re-
crudesence of the German-American
Alliance, whose charter was cancelled
by the Federal government.
The society's letters to Mr.. Brundagc
reads:
"The American Defence Society de-
sires to call to your attention the or
ganization in Chicago OF the German
American Citizens League, whose mem
bership is limited to those of German
extraction, which includes in its pur-
poses the preservation of the German
language and kultur and which is
formed for the avowed purpose Of
welding political influence. The for
nation of political groups along the
the unity of the American people and
is directly opposed to the ideals Of
American democracy.
"The creation Of this organization
imposes upon the American people the
duty of watching its activities and Of
causing political candidates and man
ayers to realize that the acceptance
of the support Of pro-German organi
cations means the withdrawal of loyal
American votes.
"The board Of trustees of this society
earnestly hopes that you will investi-
gate the charter of the German-Amer-
lean Citizens League and their actual
purposes as opposed to their ostensible
purposes with view to ascertaining
whether they are, or are not, recru-

PATERSON, N. j., July l2.-Appli-
cation for writ of habeas corpus for
the release of the four members of
the Paterson branch Of the Amalga-
mated Textile Workers of America,
arrested by the local police in a raid
on the organization, will be made be-
fore Supreme Court Justice James F.

counsel for the defendants, said to-
day. The men, who are Robert w

charges of advocating the destruction

Capitalizing the incarceration of
their "martyred brothers," workers for
the Amalgamated to-day started a
membership campaign among the silk
workers. They distributed cards
reading: zone hundred new members
for each day that our comrades are

Members of the organization were
somewhat perturbed to-day over the
action of the United Textile Workers,
affiliated with the American Fedora
ton Of Labor, who announced them
selves in favor of a forty-four- hour
work week in Paterson, beginning Au-
gust a. This is one of the main de-

fostering, and it's presentation by the
rival organization has deprived it of

Martens Admits Reds
Probably Slew u. S. Men
But Bolsheviki Bear No Ill WIFI
Toward Americans, He
Declares

L. c. A. K. Martens, the Bolshevist
Ambassador" to the United States,
admitted yesterday, that it was prob
ably true that Bolshevik forces in a
series of encounters had killed and
wounded American soldiers at Roman
ovka, Siberia, as reported Yesterday
by The Associated Press. But he in
sisted that if Americans were attacked
it was because they were part of the
Kolchak forces and not because thew
were Americans.
Martens said that the Bolsheviki
bear no enmity toward the Americans
III Siberia and Russia, but cannot un-
derstand why they should be fighting
the Soviet government when the United
States, Is not at war with that govern
ment. He said that the good faith of
the Bolsheviki toward American SOL
dlers is proved by the immediate lib
GRAFTON of all Americans captured in
engagements.
Some time ago." said Martens, cit
was reported that the Bolsheviki cap
tured several American soldiers and
one lieutenant. We now know that the
Bolsheviki liberated them immediately
and as far as | remember, it was Off
cially admitted by General Graves,
the American commandant in Siberia.
The Bolsheviki are not fighting the
Americans, but the Kolchak forces.
According to Martens, large anti
kolchak force has been organized in
this region of Siberia, estimated at
between $4,000 and $4,000 men.

Hylan's Name Replaces
Mitchel's ON Tablet
Stonecutter Changes Record
Marking Erection of Black
wells Island Building

A stone tablet which peeps over the
edge of Queensborough Bridge from
its place on top of ten-story ware
house on Blackwell's Island says John
T. Hylan was mayor when the build
ing was erected.
The cornerstone of this building was
laid on October %, 1917, when Mayor
Hylan was county judge in Brooklyn
and mayoralty candidate. The late
Mayor Mitchell favored tbs erection of
this building because fire apparatus
could be brought to the island by using
runaway to the roof and a huge
elevator to the ground. Before that,
city officials were perplexed by the
problem Of fighting large fire on the
island.
A bronze plate was placed near the
cornerstone to tell posterity that John
furroy Mitchell was Mayor when the
building was erected. A stone tablet
was placed on the top floor, visible
from the bridge, and conveying the
Same information.
Recently a stonecutter spent long
hours with the tablet. When ne left
It, Mayor Hylan's name was inscribed.

Threatens to Call Special
Session of Aldermen to
Pass Measure Aimed to
Stop Street Brokerage
He Holly Assails Mayor
Declares He Is in Error
When He Says Special
Privileges Are Granted

Robert L. Moran, president Of the
Board of Aldermen and the recognized
leader of the Democratic majority in
the board, declared yesterday that I'M
less Mayor Hylan withdrew his veto of
The Quinn ordinance licensing curb
brokers be would convoke special
session of the board, which adjourned
Monday week for the summer, to pass
Tho measure over the Mayors veto.
This ordinance. which was introduced
he Alderman William i. Quinn, a Re-
nublican, following disclosures tending
h show that some of the curb brokers
were not keeping faith with their
clients, provided that all curb brokers,
regardless of where they traded, should
nav an annual license fee of $500 to
The Commissioner of Licenses. There
we're several other drastic provisions
which were eliminated before the Com
mittee on General Welfare of the
Board reported out the Quinn ordi-
nance.
The Mayors veto, according to some
aldermen, followed q visit of a dele
cation Of curb brokers to the Mayors
Office.
aThe Mayor" said President Moran,
was laboring under a great mistake
when he vetoed the message. He did
am aware Of before taking this action.
Had he done so, he would not have
vetoed this message, which is necessary
if we are to supervise the curb brokers.
1.-THE Mayor evidently did not read
the ordinance when he vetoed it.
Otherwise, he could not have written
in his veto message that the curb
brokers' readily could evade the ordi-
nance by moving their activities to
other quarters within, a block or so of
the present site. The fact is that on the
day of its passage Alderman Collins,
chairman of the Committee on General
Welfare, amended the measure SO that
it applied to any street in the city of
New York.
Calls 1t Exclusive Grant
"The Mayor is further in error when
he wrote in his veto message that the
ordinance appears to grant to the said
association lof curb brokers) an, ex-
elusive privilege, that is, the privilege
Of selling, exchanging and trading. in
stocks at the particular site mentioned
The very first section Of the vetoed
ordinance read: All persons dealing in
4 the purchase, sale or exchange of
stocks, bonds, notes or securities, in
or upon any street in the City Of New
York, shall be deemed curb brokers'
Surely this is not an exclusive grant.
"The reasons set forth by the Mayor
in his veto are not only insufficient, but
incorrect. His Honor's failure to con-
slider the aldermen makes it necessary
that we assert ourselves"
Alderman Quinn had this to say:
1.-THE Mayor con stantly is telling the
poor that he loves them, yet he does
not give them a chance to voice their
opinion of an ordinance which is aimed
at ending the swindling operations OF
few curb brokers'"
The Quinn ordinance was passed by
unanimous vote of the board. Forty
eight votes, or two-thirds OF the total
membership, are necessary to pass the
measure over the Mayors veto
