German, Serbian War
Hero, Here as Stowaway
Dcserter in Kaiser's Army,
Formerly Employed in L. S.,
Probably Will Be Deported

The Red Star liner Finland brought
to port yesterday from Antwerp as a
stowaway Bernard Ocvirk, thirty light
years old, German machinist, who de-
serted from the German army and
fought with the Serbs. He spent
twenty years in this country and was
at one time employed by the Hamburg
American Line in Hoboken.
His parents lived in Leipsic and
while visiting them in the summer Of
1914 he was pressed into service, but
deserted and fought with the Serbian
army, winning two decorations and the
rank Of corporal. He said he had in
vented mechanism for sanitation and
had come here to exploit it.
A month ago Ocvirk hid aboard the
Kroonland, but was found when the
vessel arrived at Southampton and
sent back to Antwerp on the Finland.
He was sent ashore, but remained
about the waterfront and hid in the
Finland's bunkers. This time he was
not discovered until the vessel was
we'll out in the Atlantic. He was sent
to Ellis Island yesterday and probably
VIII be deported.
Among the saloon passengers on the
Finland was Judge William H. Wad-

Declare They Will Have
to Go Out of Business
Unless Lease Dates Are
Changed to Avoid Rush
Landlords Oppose Idea
Say Changing of Present
System Would Lead 70
Confusion for Tenants

The Van Owners Association, COM
prising III storage warehouse oper-
ators and moving men. is considering
going out Of business unless landlords
take less dictatorial stand on the
month in which leases must begin and
expire. Charles S. Morris, president
of the association, made this state
ment yesterday.
"The moving rush in October, when
nearly all the leases in the city ex-
pire. is too much" Morris said. at is
chaotic. It's expensive for the people
who have to move and it is unprotit-
able for US. We have to support vans
and men for eleven and a half months
in the year and then get so much bust
ness in October that we cannot handle
it.
"Thc public can remedy this if they
will seek an agreement with their land
lords whereby their leases end on
September l or November I.
Conditions this fall will be worse
than last. The stand the landlords
take IN the matter is criminal. The
landlords have fooled with US long
enough. If they don't take action to
do away with the wild scramble in Oc-
tober We'll just close down. 1t doesn't
pay"
One of the largest real estate oper-
ators in the city said yesterday that
the plan would cause lot of confusion
There will be people" he said, "whose
leases expire in September arrang-
ing to take an apartment that vii.
not be vacant until October. Others
whose leases do not expire until Oc-
tober will have to move into their new
apartment in September and pay rent
tor two months for two apartments"
The situation in October, he said,
was unayoidable because of present
unnatural conditions
