AN UNDESIRABLE

Henry LeCot, 14o5 Sixth avenue,

during the war he claimed exemp-
ton as an alien, alleged to have
been implicated in criminal activi-
ties in Belgium, was arrested this
noon IN a lunchroom in Moline on
federal warrant asserting that he
is an undesirable citizen"
This action is preliminary to de-
portation proceedings. The war
rant under which LeCot was arrest
ed was signed by Louis Post, as
sistant secretary Of the department
Of immigration.
LeCot will have a hearing tomor-
row at which he will probably be
given opportunity to furnish $1,000
bail pending further proceedings.
1t is said that LeCot's criminal
record in Belgium includes a ca.
reer as forger and counterfeiter
He is said to have been associated
with Edgar Owens in the socialist

he was any longer interested in the
Owens party organization.

ArIo1A Tie hduSds City lllHeS, Dat
urday, July II, 1920
George Bennett Simpson, for 20
years assistant general freight
agent of the Chicago & Alton rail-
road, died last night at his home,
S07 East Forty-seventh street. Mr..
Simpson had been ill eight years,
and for the last, two years had not
left his room.
Mr.. Simpson was one Of the most
widely known railroad men in
Kansas City and was recognized as
an exceptionally successful traffic
man. He was born in Rock Island,
ILL.,, IS years ago. He began his
career with the Burlington railroad
at that point. He was taken to st.
Louis by ]. T. Ripley of the Bur-
lington, brother Of the late E. P.
Ripley, and there attracted the. at
tention of the late Milton knight,
then traffic manager Of the Wabash
railroad, who made him chief traf-
fic clerk of that line. About thirty
years ago Mr.. Simpson became gen.
eral freight agent Of the st. Louis,
Peoria & Northern. at the time the
youngest general freight agent in
the country.
Mr.. Simpson made such Sue
cess Of this road that when it was
taken over by the larger systems he
was appointed by Samuel FELTON,,
president of the Chicago & Alton, as
assistant general freight agent of
that line, and was the first ap-
pointee Of Mr.. FELTON, after assun-
ing the presidency, 20 years ago.
This position was held by Mr..
Simpson to the time of his death,
in spite Of the fact that he had
been partly incapacitated for bust
ness for six years and wholly in
capacitated more than two years.
This was in tribute, not only to his
great service as a traffic Official,
but also to the cheerful heroism
with which he braved his misfor-
tune.
Before his illness Mr.. Simpson
was prominent in the business aud
social life of the city, active in
Chamber Of Commerce affairs and
in Masonry. He was a member OF
st Georges Episcopal church. The
surviving members of his family
are Mrs. Simpson. one daughter,
Miss Virginia Simpson, and one
sister. Mrs ]. W. HOuderl Rock fs-
land, Ill.

GERMAN Event


Hamburg, July boy The As
sociated Press JAS more particu-
/ lars come to light regarding the
agreement between the Hamburg
American steamship company, and
the American ship and commerce
corporation, by which the former
German trade routes are to be
opened to American shipping, the
belief is deepening in shipping and
financial circles here that it con-
stitutes one of the most momentous
events for Germany since the war.
Through it the Germans see the
means of regaining touch with the
outside world and an opportunity
| for Hamburg to reestablish q sem
blance, at least, Of its former posi-
ton as a great port.
But apart from the commercial
benefits expected, the Germans at
tach much political significance to
the agreement. This was empha-
sized today by Wilhelm Cuno, gen.
eral manager of the Hamburg
American line, in an interview with
the Associated Press.
Herr Cuno stated the Spa confer
ence supplied the best proof that
cooperation of nations cannot be
effected by a victorious government
debating DEGREES to a beaten gov
eminent
"The experience Of our negotia-
lions with the United States con-
firms this" continued Herr Cuno
from the first day we took up dis
cussions with full knowledge that
this first renewal of friendship on
an important and vital point would
have to be sincere and binding"

as they are the agreement will be
