FERDINAND TURNHERR WRITES
OF GREAT PRIvATIoNs
IN AUSTRIA.
ONLY ONE LOAF OF BREAD A
WEEK.-soRRY HE LEFT s
THIS COUNTRY.

John H. Forster, the well-known local
furniture dealer, is in receipt of a letter
from Ferdinand Turnherr, a former New
Ulmite, in which he tells of the great
privations endured by the people Of
Dornbirn, Vorarlberg, Austria, where he
now resides. Judging from Mr.. Turn
herr's letter, the conditions there must
be pitiable in the extreme, for there is
much suffering for lack Of the most es-
sential food and the prevailing high
prices.
Mr.. Turnherr returned to Dornbirn
from this city some time last fall. The
ocean voyage across the Atlantic was
fraught with hardship and the passengers
Of the French steamer, on which he sailed
suffered greatly from hunger. Upon
arriving in his native country, Mr., Turn
herr found conditions there almost be-
You'd human endurance. Food was
scarce and very expensive and tobacco
could not be had at any price. This he,
wrote ina letter to Peter Kitzberger,
assistant cashier of the State Bank Of
New Ulm, several months ago.
According to tho letter received by.
Mr.. Forster few days ago, Mr.. Turn
herr Us we'll but again complains Of the
great suffering occasioned by hunger
He states that he has often regretted
having left New, Ulm, and that. he would
like to return. He had been staying
with his own people at Dornbirn, but
they have nothing to eat. All he gets
for breakfast is soup, for which he is
obliged to pay 80 crowns (the ap-
proximate pre-war value Of an Austrian
crown was 2O.3 cents). He is allowed.
only one loaf of bread week. There
is no work to be had; no buildings of any
kind being created. Even though there.
would be work, he could not secure any,
he says being an American citizen, as
the natives are given preference over
foreigners in this respect. ss.s J,

DEAD SOLDIERS
HONORED MONDAY
TRIBUTE PAID TO MEN WHO
LOST THEIR LIVES FOR
AMERICA.
PARADE FORMED AT CENTER
AND STATE STREETS.
CEREMONY.

New Ulm men and young men who
lost their lives in one of Americas late
wars and for the greater part have found
their last resting place in the city's ceme-
teries were honored on Second Decoration
day, last Monday The ceremonies we're
of the usual nature.
A parade formed at the Monument
at the corner of Center and State streets
in the morning at nine o'clock and
marched through the principal streets Of
the city. The number of participants
was not very large this year. Auditor
Louis G. Vogel acted as marshal of the
day and was assisted by Lieut.. A. G..
Amann and Ed. Harrington. Follow
ing the Hofmeister band number of
Spanish-American war and Civil war
Circle were carried in automobiles. They
were followed by Burg's battery, the
Union band and a number of school
children carrying American flags.
Called for Unselfishness.
=
Attorney II. III. Flor, member of the
local law firm Somsen, Dempsey & Flor,
delivered the speech at the cemetery in
memory of the heroes who offered their
lives on the field of honor. Mr.. Flor
called attention to the unselfish service
rendered5by the soldier in fighting for the
safety and protection Of his country and
5countrymen They do not fight Ger their
own individual benefit, but in the interest
of their fellow beings, said the speaker.
He then compared their attitude with
that of men in private life, where we find
that selfshness is the underlying cause Of
most of our present-day difficulties. 1t
is this desire to get everything for our
selves without thinking much Of the
interests and needs of others that creates
constant trouble and unrest in the world.
Continuing Mr. Flor turned to the
.endeavors of the labor element to better
their conditions by striking for higher
wages. The work and energy, he said,
might as we'll be Used IN the general tight
to lower the cost of living. An organiza-
ton that is strong enough, with the aid
of public opinion, to succeed, in its fight
for higher wages through the strike
medium will also hive the power. to strike
for the lowering Of the cost of LIES
necessities, the speaker explained. Its
members then would resemble more the
soldiers of an army in their unselfsh fight
because labor would then really do more
in the interest of the common good since
all would profit BY a reduction in the
prices. Of LIES necessities.
Called For Unselfshness.
At the City Cemetery, the usual pro-
gram was carried out in perfect order.

HOSPITAL. SCHOOL FOR
NURSES. LATER.
TREAsURER's REPORT SHOWS
INSTITUTION IN GOOD
CONDITION..

A new nurses home for the nurses of
the local Union hospital was urged by
r.. Ell. Retzlaff, treasurer of the Union
Hospital Association, at the annual
meeting Of the stockholders of that Or
ganization held Monday afternoon at
2 o'clock. The meeting was held at the
Turner Hall club room, and was very
we'll attended by the stockholders Of the
organization. The treasurer's report
which was read during the meeting shows
that the institutions in very fiourishing
condition making the building of new
addition almost imperative since the
wards are filled nearly all the time and
a number Of patients haVe to be turned
away.
Wants Nurses Home.
Following the reading Of the minutes
OF last year annual meeting Of the stock
holders also held on Memorial Day, F. H.
Retzlaf, treasurer of the organization,
spoke on the present needs of the insti-
tuition. He especially emphasized the
necessity Of having a new nurses home
on the hospital grounds which is to be
occupied by the nurses of the hospital.
He also advocated the establishing of
training school for girls who intend to
become nurses and enter the services of
the Union Hospital. This school would
offer a three years course, according to
Mr.. Retzlaf's suggestion.
No Decision.
No decision was made in regard to the
building of the new home for nurses, but
the matter will be taken up again by the
board Of directors who may take the
decisive step in the near future. Re
.garding the opening Of nurses training
school, it was decided to postpone the
establishing of such an institution until
the organization is able to build first
class nurses home which at present is
of far greater Importance. According to
plans, this home will be equipped with
all modern appliances, such as X-ray

would cause an expense of about 81 5 ,000
Addition Too Costly.
Mr. Retzlaff also spoke on the matter
of erecting new addition to the hospital,
the necessity Of which was already shown
at the annual meeting of 1919 Several
other stockholders also spoke in favor of
increasing the capacity of the institution,
but prices for building material being so
prohibitive at the present time it was
decided not to build the proposed addi-
ton until these prices have returned to a
more normal level. Under present con-
ditions, it is estimated, the new building
would cost $150,000, while year AGO
the cost would have been only half of
this expense. If erected, the new addi-
ton will be larger than the present build
ing having room for so beds. At present
there is only room for about IS to 40
beds. The addition would have been
build lastiyear if it had not been for the
red tape connected with the issuing of
the bonds on account of the government
loan thatwas circulated at that time 1t

Erickson Testi6es.

On the part of the prosecution, Mr..
Erickson testified that he had come to
New Ulm, among other things, to see
Mr.. Vogel about a bill which he had
sent to him for county printing which
Mr.. Erickson's firm of Springfield had
done for the county, and to which Mr..
Vogel requested that the state printers
certificate as to the amount OF work be
attached. Mr.. Erickson testified that
it had never dawned upon him that it
was Lincoln's birthday. He claimed
that after some preliminary talk in re-.
gard to this bill Mr.. Vogel asked Mr..
Polkow, who was present in the COM
missioners' room, to step out as he had
a private matter to discuss with Mr..
Erickson. The complaining witness
testified that Mr.. Vogel then locked the
door after Mr.. Pollzow had stepped out
and that he previously locked the other
door leading from the commissioners
He claimed that as soon as they were
alone Mr.. Vogel proceeded to upbraid
him and started to pommel him, taking
off his glasses, and all that he himself
did was to protect his face from the
blows and that number of blows were
landed on the back Of his neck. Or.
Schoch testified that the injuries which
were sustained were altogether super
fetal.
MIR. Vogel's Version.
On his part of the case, Mr. Vogel
claimed that he had informed Mr..
Erickson politely that the county COM
missioners desired printers certificate
to his bill, but that Mr.. Erickson stated
that he would stand upon his rights and
that no such Certificate was required.
Mr.. Vogel also claimed that Mr.. Erick-
son had made some remark to him to
the effect that the people Of New Ulm
always resort to mob violence; that a
short time after the bill had been left
with him for filing by Mr.. Erickson, he
had requested Mr.. Polkow to step out.
as he desired to talk privately with Mr..
Erickson; that he had tried to make
up friends with Mr.. Erickson, telling
him that the war was over and asking
him why he persisted in nagging him in
his newspaper and connecting him with
the pro- German and disloyal element.
To this claim, he testified, Erickson re-
piled that he, Vogel, was prot German
and disloyal and his actions had shown
it. Mr.. Vogel stated that he then adj
vanced towards Mr.. Erickson, demanding
that he retract what he had said, utsMr.
Erickson made a pass at him, struck
hisg lasses off his nose and that they fell
upon the floor and broke He further
claimed that the two then clinched and
in the str eggle that ensued blows were
given Lack and. forth; that while Vogel.
was reaching for Erickson's glasses, the.
latter jerked back his head and struck
the wall that projects into the commits
sionerss room in. the shape of,an archways
and that this accounts for the bump on

ASSAULT CASE
ENDS IN C0IIRT
GRAND JURY RETURNS VERDICT
OF mot GUILTY" IN
voGEL CASE.
COURT ADJOURNED TILL JUNE.
q, JUDGE JOHNSON PRE-
SIDING.

The much talked of case of the State
of Minnesota against Louis G. Vogel
on the complaint Of August G. Erickson
for alleged assault committed by Mr..
Vogel upon Mr.. Erickson on Lincoln's
birthday in the county auditors office,
or rather the commissioners room, was
tried in district court on Monday and
Tuesday Of last week, Judged. NJ. Olsen
presiding. The selecting Of a jury was
much easier than had been expected, but
the fact was that the New Ulm papers
had not made much of the incident
at the time, and Mr.. Vogel had never
made any statement as to the
particulars of the occurrence, while
it will be remembered that Mr.. Erickson
had taken up considerable space in his
paper in giving his version of the case.
The case was handled on the part. of the
prosecution by W.. T. Eckstein, county
attorney, but Mr.. Erickson assisted the.
county attorney throughout, in the
drawing of jury and the cross examina
ton of the witnesses for the defense and
was permitted by the court to make the
closing address to the jury In hi own be-
half. The foreman of the jury that sat,
upon the case was fellow toWnsman and
friend Of Mr.. Erickson and most of the
jurors we're we'll acquainted with him..
so it would seem that Mr.. Erickson had
a fair deal throughout the trial of the.
case.
