from the Snyder avenue station house.
Major Putnam's lecture, which ended al
most as soon as it began. was to have
been on THE Relations Between Eng
land and America
In December, 1916, the Major started
TO lecture on similar subject at
Brownsville Civic Forum. in Public
School "a, Brooklyn. He got only a.
far as statement that he yearned TO
be young enough to join the British
General Staff when hooting and Kisses
and cries of traitor" forced him to quit.
Yesterday Major Putnam was found
in his office at 2 West Forty-fifth street.
He expressed decided views on what
stood In the background Of Monday
nights disturbance. And he said the
experience has cured him from attempt
ing future school lectures unless the
Police Department can give him ade-
uuate protection.

added
II believe the time is not far distant
when this tunnel will be followed by
others until cross river traffic will be
removed from the surface of the river

up and down traffic to proceed unin-

Gov. Edwards avowed this TO be the
proudest moment of his life. Closer

well as better business. he foresaw as
resulting from the tunnel project.
