Whitman Seeks Release
OF Convicted Anarchist
Asks Certificate of Reasonable
Doubt for Former Assembly,
man Benjamin Gitlow

Former Governor Charles S. Whitman
appeared in the Supreme Court yester-
day as special counsel for former AS
semblyman Gltlow, under sentence Of
from five to ten years for crimina
anarchy, for whom Mr.. Whitman asked
certificate of reasonable doubt.
Mr.. Whitman argued before Justice
McAvoy that the indictment against
Gtlow did not set forth sufficient
facts to charge him with criminal
anarchy. He told the court that his
own principles and opinions were d.
rectly in opposition to those advocated
by Gitlow, but that the main question
involved was that his client was en-
Titled to fair trial whatever his
views, and that if his rights were not
fully protected at the trial then he
was entitled to relief.
Mr.. Whitman contended that Justice
Weeks, who presided at the Gitlow
trial, erred in the admission of GER
tain testimony, that he erred in his
charge to the jury and also erred in
calling the attention of the jury to the
general conspiracy law, under which
Gitlow was not indicted.
Alexander |. Rorke, Assistant Dis
trIct Attorney, argued against granting
Gitlow certificate of reasonable doubt
Mr.. Rorke read from the minutes of
the trial, which included the manifesto
OF the left wing Of the Socialist party
written and published by Gitlow, and
which advocated the overthrow Of thf
government and the establishment Of
the dictatorship Of the proletariat u
Justice McAvoy reserved decision.

Irish United for Freedom,
Says Protestant Pastor
Religious and Political Divisions
Healed by English Misrule,
He Asserts

About 5000 persons attended meet
ing neld in Carnegie Hall last night
under the auspices of the Protestant
Friends Of Ireland and about 1000
more clamored at the doors because
there was no room for them. a ban
ner declaring the independence Of
india was displayed prominently, and
one turbanned Indian was on the stage
and four more in box.
The Rev. ]. A. II. Irwin a Presby-
terrain clergyman from County Antrim,
said that there were two reasons why
ireland looked to America for help.
The frst was that English misrule had
driven the flower of Irish youth"
across the Atlantic, and the second,
chat the world regarded America as
The arbiter Of the worlds justice"
England was misgoverning Ireland to
such an extent, he said, that there was
no longer religious or political d
vision in the land. An impost Of 500
an acre on fax growers had caused dis
content in the north, he said, while
Englishmen were running Irish rail
roads, SO inciiiciently that freight was
shipped from the north Of Ireland to
the south by way OF New York. 1t was
because ot the English policy of dis
couraging recruiting in Ireland. he
said that Ireland had made a poor
showing in the var.

Washington Orders

COBLENZ, April (By The Asso-
ciated Prcssl.-The position of the
American forces in Germany with ref
ernce to the Allied attitude and pos
sible action growing out of the oras.
ont situation depends entirely upon
direct orders from President Wilson.
Ihe American army authorities are
keeping in close touch with all develop
ments Tor Information. but their direc-
ton is in the hands OF Washington.
The American authorities say they
interpret the policy outlined by Pres-
dent Wilson toward the German situa-
ton to mean that the American force :,
on the Rhine are concerned directly
only with affairs bearing on the Amer
ican occupied area, in which Major
General II. 7. Allen, commander in
Chief OF the occupational troops, holds
full authority for the protection of
American interests. 1t is understood
that the Judgment of the American
command IN Coblenz on future develop
ments must continue stationary on CON
troll of the American area.
From The Tribune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON. April 5.-The Amer
lean government some time ago direct
ed Ambassador Wallace to inform the
French Foreign Office tina. the United
States would not oppose the use by Ger
many of Federal troops to restore order
IN the Ruhr valley, and this position
was restated at the State Department
to-day. The departments are without
advlces from the ambassador and Major
General Alien, commander Of the United
States forces in Germany.
" hlle it Is admitted that France is
vastly the most interested nation in
any military movement by the German
government, it was suggested that no
menace can be scen in the use Of Ger
man troops in the Ruhr Valley for the
purpose OF establishing order there.
Il was said that France could hardly

lets i'll Copenhagen Clasl,
New Cabinet Announced
Majority Socialist Party Is
Given Important Places
in the Latest Ministry

COPENHAGEN. April 5.-Although q
definite agreement to call off the gen
cral strike had been reached carly
to-day, there was an encounter between
the extreme Socialists and the police
soon after the announcement of the
was overturned and destroyed, and two
policemen were seriously beaten. Some
of the participants were wounded By
revolver shots.
The encounter took place outside tho
Foreign Office. 1t was virtually the
only instance thus far Of apparently
here.
The official list of the new Cabinet
made public to-day is as follows:
NJ. Friis, Premier and Minister Of
Defense; Oscar Scavenius, Minister Of
Fore On Affairs; VI. Sonns. Minister Of
Agriculture: H. p. Prior, Minister of
Trade; NJ Wendell. Minister OF the In
terror; NJ. Schroeder, Minister of JUS
tee; NJ. Kofoed, Slinister Of Finance;
Nj. Jenson, Minister Of Labor; NJ.
Petersen, Minister Of Edufation; NJ.
Riishansen, Minister of Communica-
tons; NJ. Ammentorp, Minister of
Worship.
The Ministry is purely provisional,
and, according to "Thc Social Demo-
kraten," is composed exclusively Of
men opposed to the Kings recent &C
ton in dsmissing the Zahle Cabinet.
The first act of the new Ministry was
TO comply with the Socialist demand
that general amnesty be granted all
political offenders now in prison.
The Ministry seems to meet with
general approval by the parties. 1t is
composed largely of the permanent sec
retaries OF the different governmental
departments. who obviously have been
chosen for the most part to carry on
the routine of the departments in the
government, which is cons idered purely
temporary in character. The other
portfolios are held by men who, al
though representative of various
political parties, are not considered as
likely to make any radical changes in
the conduct OF their departments.
The reinstatement Of H. p. Hansen
as commissioner for Scheswig affairs
has given great satisfaction to those
who objected to an anneXationist policy
regarding the disputed northern Schles-
wig plebiscito zone.
The agreement for settlement of the
strike was reached at a conference
between personalities of the en-
ployers and the workers. Later O. gem
eral meeting OF the representatives of
the labor unions decided to call off the
general walk-out.
The Social Dcmokraten" says that
King Christian was compelled to bow
to the firm will of the people, and it
declares the road now is clear for the
characterization and Specialization of
the state. None of the bourgeois papers
appeared this morning.

LONDON. April s.-The north Allan.
tic shipping lines have decided to m
crease freight rates very substantially
from the United Kingdom to North
America as from April ], says The
London Tines this morning. The de-
clsion IS attributable to the high level

The newspaper adds that a message
received yesterday gave an intimation
that American and other lines may IN
crease passenger rates 10 per cent ow-
ing to additional costs in operation.
The present surcharge, however. is to
be slightly reduced and viii now be %
