WASHINGTON, March 12.-Frank p
Keech, New York broker and former
ly lieutenant colonel in the inspector
generals department Of the army,
stirred up rumpus to-day when he
told the House Ways and Means Com
mittee, which is considering soldier

Il did not mean it as an insult, but
1t Is true" Keech replied.
Members of Congress arc influ-

rightly so," said Representative Gar

and two states reported the majority Of
children are losing the grade.
Another significant fact is revealed
says A. o. Neal, Of the bureaus divi-
sion of rural education. Since 1890 there
has bene a continuous and increasing
withdrawal of mon teachers. The per-
centage of men teachers in 1890 was 81.
In 1910 it had fallen to 22 per cent, and
In 1918 to II per cent.
"The question of teachers salaries is
vital, and comparison from 1916 to
1918 shows that in the two years the
average teachers salary advanced from
$663 to $685. a year, an increase Of $72.
or IL per cent. The figures for 1918
show that the average salary for ele-
mentary teachers was $606, and the
average salary for high school teach
ers, $1,031. The salaries of rural teach
ers are far below this average in many
states, and salaries as low as $150 to
5000 year are found in many locali-
ties.
Another cause Of teachers withdraw
ing from the profession is found in the
lack of provision made for suitable
homes in the community where the
teachers may become part Of the So
cial organization. This is particularly
true in rural districts, where in many
communities they are providing teach
ers' homes in connection with the
schools"

stowaway's Escape Here From
the Steamship Pastores

victor Llzarrago, twenty, said to be
direct descendant of the Incas. was
taken into custody yesterday by i'm
migration officials and brought to Ellis
Island. The inspectors declined to saw
where they found him, but it is known
that Lizarrago arrived here March 5 on
the United Fruit steamship Pastores
from Costa Rica as a stowaway and
escaped from the vessel at this port
A board of special inquiry, which
TOOK up his case as soon as the stow
away arrived on the island, is seeking
to lind the person or persons who aided
hlm in escaping. The law imposes a
maximum fine Of $4,000 or five years
imprisonment, or both, for any one who
participates in the escape OF any alien
not duly admitted by an immigration
inspector or not lawfully entitled to
enter or reside in the United States.
1t was said at the island that Tjzar-
rago, who processes to be q Journalist
attracted much attention among the
tourists on the Pastores, and that a
wealthy real estate man who was a
passenger had taken special interest in
the stowa"ay. Representations were
made to the immigration officials, it is
sad, that the wealthy realty operator
was ready to execute a bond that the
young Indian would not become pub

provide for his education.

ALBANY, March 1.-THE Rey. Will
lam Fl. Freeman to-day started) his
promised libel suit against William
II. Anderson, state superintendent of
the Anti-Saloon League. He seeks to
recover. $4,000 and asked that the
trial take place in Schoharie County,
where he is pastor of the Presbyterian
Church at Carlisle. The Rev. Mr. Free
man is the minister who first wrote
to Assemblyman Louis A. Cuvilier,
sponsor Of the Anti-Saloon League in
vestigation resolution Offering to cx-
pose the league and commencing the
Assembly fight against it.
In his complaint the Rev. Mr.. Free
man declares that Anderson "mali-
ciously and wontonly composed" an
article which he sent to the press,
headed "Preacher Freeman, star wit
ness against the Anti-Saloon League,
once ran saloon" The clergyman has
denied this statement and says that his
good name and reputation as result
OF it was injured to the extent of
$4,000. He asks for another S25 900

ment among members of the Assembly.
William C. Findlay, of 43 Cedar

Assemblyman Cuviflier declared that
he would stand for no calling off of

He contends that not only crime has
been committed, but that it NAV be

May Get Gold by
Liquidating Loan
Metal Pledged to Secure Adj
vance to kolcllak Govern
ment Nav Be Released

Another 100000 of gold may be-
come available for predicted inter
national gold movements, about which
so much is being said in Wall Street
at present. 1t was learned yesterday
that there. is a real possibility that
the loan made last December to the
Kolchak AllRussian government, with
headquarters at Omsk, may be liqui-
dated before maturity as a result of
political changes in Russia. Although
the late Admiral Kolchak is not Of the
field, his regime has been tecl nically
succeeded by the government headed
by General Denikine
The loan to the Omsk government,
which was made. by, an American syn,
dicate headed BY Kidder, Peabody &
Co. and by British bank s.. does not
mature for about fifteen months. How
ever, we'll informed bankers said yes
terday that developments in Russia
might lead to the liquidation Of the
loan in the near future. They denied
that any steps to this end had yet
been taken.
The American institutions advanced
$22,500,0 900 in credit and the British
banks between $15,000,0D0 and SIG. .OOO,-
600, in order to permitbthe Omsk gov
ernment to buy munitions and com
modltes in foreign markets. These
credit advances were secured by the
deposit of approximately $4,000 900
in gold by the Omsk government as
collateral. This gold is held in the
vaults of the Hong Kong and Shanghai
Bank, at Hong Kong, China, which is
acting as trustee
In the vent of a liquidation of the
loan, thus freeing the collateral, bank
ers associated with the transaction
said that the gold would go to the
highest bidder, and that it was CON
ceivable that Great Britain might ac-
quire it all and ship it to the United
States in connection with the Anglo
French maturity. =. o

Columbia Student
Held After Fatal
Boxing Exhibition
Homicide Charge Made as
Result of Death in Ring:
Legislators Differ ON
Effect OH New Bills

Arraigned before Magistrate Schwab
on short affidavit charging homicide.
Andrew Lockett, twenty-three years
old, the Columbia student who was
arrested as result of the sudden
death Thursday night Of Milton
Sternfeld, Columbia Law School
graduate, in boxing bout, was held
yesterday in $4,000 bail for hearing
March 18.
Sternfeld collapsed during bout
with Lockett in Earl Hall before mem
bers of the Engineering Society.
At the conclusion of the autopsy
yesterday DR.. Norris reported that
Sternfeld's death had been due to
cerebral hemorrhage. Every organ in
the mans body, he said, had been in
perfect condition and functioning prop
erly, but the excitement, plus the exer-
else Of boxing, had caused small
artery in the brain to burst.
Frank W. Stanton, attorney for
Lockett, asked that his client be
psroled in his sustodv until the date
Of the hearing. Assistant District
Attorney Lorenzo Carlino objected,
ana Oh MS uOLlOu Dall WAS HHeQ at
$4,000. 1t was provided by Professor
Fred A. Goetze, treasurer of Co.

Edward Hymes, u lawyer and an uncl le
of Sternfeld told the court of the
close friendship that had existed be-
tween his nephew and Lockett. Many
Columbia students 'and members Of the
faculty were in court.
From Star Correspondent
ALBANY, March 12.~-Legislators
here differ in their opinion as to the
effect the death of Milton Sternfeld
i'll & boxing exhibition at Column,a
University will have on the Walker
boxing bill. The measure was favoraby
reported to the Senate last week and
had every assurance of passage.
Because Of the death of Sternfleld,
however, some legislators express doubt
of the advisability Of passing it. They
call attention to the fact that the death
Of Stephen Mcdonald, an Albany boy,
as the result Of blow received in q
bout in 1917, caused the repeal Of the
Frawley boxing law, and they fear
the death Of Sternfeld may kill the
Walker bill.
Other legislators insist that If the
Walker bill were now on the statute
books, such fatalities could not occr.
The bill, they point out, would permit
only physically fit young men entering
the ring and require a rigid physical
eXamina ton of fighters before all bouts.
