 SORTS OF QUESTIONS
Republican A. p. Leased wIreI

ALBANY, N. Y, Feb. 20.-Counsel for the assembly judiciary committee trying the five suspended socialist as semblynen on charges of disloyalty today bombarded with questions Otto Branstetter, national secretary of the socialist party in an unsuccessful at tempt to obtain admission that the party contemplated use of the general strike to capture from the ma ajority control of the United States govern ment.
 Branstetter admitted, however that general strike tying up the country and paralyzing industry might be ''an advantageous weapon against any capitalist minority seeking to regain political power after 1t had been ac- quired by the socialist party through constitutional methods. He was fol- lowed on the stand by Julius Gerber, executive secretary of the New York county socialist organizations and Seymour Stedman, a defense attorney.
 Gerber was called by the defense to refute the charge that socialists nom- mated for public offices were con- trolled by their party through resig- nations filed with county organization chairmen. He testified none of the five socialists had signed such resig- nations.
 Mir. Stedman, attorney for both Eugene V. Debs and Victor L. Berger. testified that these socialists had been convicted under the espionage act for expressions of opinion and not for any acts.
 In his testimony Branstetter said:

Thus Robert l.. Peary crowned a life of devotion to the exploration of the icy north and to the advancement of science hy the hard won discovery of the north pole. The price of four centuries of striving yielded at last to the most persistent and scientific . attack ever waged against it. Peary's success was made possible by Ions experience, which gave him a thor ougn knowledge of the difficulties to be overcome and by an unusual combina- tion of physical and mental power. a resourcefulness which enabled him to fird a way to surmount all obstacles tenaciry and courage which knew no defeat, and a phyhical endowment such as nature gives to few men.
 Tt has been well said that the glory of Peary's achievement belongs to the the world and is shared by all man kind. But we, his fellow countrymen, who have known how he struggled those many years against discourage ment and scoffing, and how he perse- vered under financial discouragements that would have crushed less stalwart shoulders, especially rejoice that he made good at last and that an American has become the peer of Hud- son, Magellan and Columbus"

Soho is reaping a harvest. because
so many people are "eating out" ow-
ing to the high cost of maintaining
but it is doing ii at the cost OF
losing the atmosphere the real habitue
enjoyed.

cause they dlsliked to dine near peO-
pie who do not appreciate perfectly
food and who never seem to
