Roosevelt for
Big Navy Till
w orld Disarr1,s
Declares Himself as Well
Pleased With New Post
as Assistant TO DENLY and
Is Ready for His Job
Has Theories of His Own
Sees Danger in Pos,poninc
Building of Ships Until
Others Suspend Plans

Colonel Theodore Roosevelt. COM
menting for the first time upon his an
pointment as Assistant Secretary of
.he Navy, a post once held by his Illus
trious father, declared yesterday he
was "highly pleased and complimented
by President-elect Hardings offer.'
81 know Mr.. DENLY, the recipient of
the Navy portfolio, WE'LL" he said. "and
am sure we shall get along in the
closest harmony"
Asked about mis- ideas on disarma-
ment and the naval building program,
Colonel Roosevelt said: "All state
ments respecting the future policy Of
the Navy Department will have to
come from the new secretary" 1t is
understood, however, that the colonel is
in complete sympathy with President
elect Harding's reluctance to suspend
the capital ship building program until
= plan Of disarmament mas been agreed
upon among the nations.
81 don't deny, however, he added,
athat have theories and ideas of my
own on the subject, For these | must
refer you to my addresses made during
the campaign"
In this connection it is recalled that
on February is, speaking before the
Western Pennsylvania Press Associa-
ton in Pittsburgh, Colonel Roosevelt
expressed himsel emphatically in IA
vor Of a strong navy, qualifying his re-
marks, however, with the suggestion
that this nation ought to join any gen
eral policy of disarmament agreed upon
with the other nations of the world
There are those" he said. "who are
working for limitation Of armaments
among the nations. 1t is a fine work
and one to which we should turn our
earnest effort. We should be willing to
do cur part at the time the other ma
tions do theirs. But we must not fatu-
ously disarm ourselves and then bland
ly wait for the results of the delibera-
tons of the other world nations. We
must hold to our traditional policy of
strong navy and an adequate army"
The Roosevelt name has been inter
woven for many years with the history
of the Navy Department. 1t was as
Assistant Secretary of the Navy that
the first Theodore Roosevelt gained ma
tional prominence. During the Wilson
Administration the post was held by
Franklin D. Roosevelt, cousin of the
former President.
Colonel Roosevelt spent yesterday
afternoon at the New York Nursery and
ChiId's Hospital, where his Wi e is a
patient. He will go to Albany to-day
and will be in Washington for the in
auguration ceremonies.

in editorials this morning pay high
tribute to the American Ambassador,
John w, Davis, whom the Pilgrims dine

men love him because his head is
right and his heart is right and because
in world oyerfull Of folly and un-
charity he stands out as d consistent,
witty, charming pleader for sanity and
goodwill among men"
The Times goes on to say that Mr.
Davis spared no effort in the campaign
of international enlightenment and
brought the American Embassy to a
remarkable degree of efficiency, and
adds:
1T is of such stuff as his that presi-
dents should be made"

Graft and Misrule
Charged Against
Harlem Hospital
Coiored Residents Also Tell
the Mayor Race Is Sub
ject TO Discrimination:
Ask Staff Representation

Charges of race discrimination, graft
and mismanagement at Harlem Hos
pital have been made to Mayor Hylan
by committee representing the col
ored section. of Harlem, headed by
George w. Harris. Alderman of the
26th District.
Asserting that similar charges pre-
sented to the board of trustees of the
hospital had met with more or less in
difference, Alderman Harris said yes
TO request an inquiry by the city, and
that Mayor Hylan had said he would
place the matter in the hands of David
Hirshtield, Commissioner of Accounts,
for investigation.
Alderman Harris also said his con-
stituents desired that their race be
represented on the hospital staff in
the appointment of a surgeon, a phy-
stefan and nurses because about so per
cent of the patients at the hospital
were colored.
Besides drawing the colored line,
Alderman Harris declares, patients of
his race have been poorly treated by
attendants, and money had been exacted
from Jnem.
"The attitude of the hospital officials
is one calculated to antagonize the
colored residents of Harlem, who num-
ber. 10000" said Alderman Harris.
DR., George O'Hanlon, general med
ical superintendent of Bellevue and
allied hospitals, declared the charges
of discrimination were unfounded.
This sort of a situation seems to
come up every little while" he said.
mo prejudice is exhibited toward col
cred patients, they being given the
same treatment as white people. As
TO representation at the hospital, we
now have two colored doctors in the
'out' department and they will be ad-
vanced when they become fitted. Al
Bellevue we have had as many as five
colored internes.
"The allegations of graft are under
Investigation by the board of trustees
but thus far no evidence of graft has
developed. The affidavits referred to
are indefinite as to names We have
asked that any one alleging tribute
was exacted come forward and make
Identification, but there has been no

Often Implicated in
International Troubles

VIENNA, Feb 27-Marcus Braun. of
New York. died here $o-day of heart
disease.
Marcus Braun was once warden Of
the Port of New York. He was elected
president. cf the American immigration
Society in 1911. Last July he went to
Vienna and is reported TO have bought
an interest in the Vienna Hungarian
News. He was an active German sym
pathi1er in the early part Of the war
and was owner of weekly, pro-Ger-
man in its sympathies called Fair
Play. 1t was developed =nat Count ven
Bernstorf, former German Ambassador
20 the United States, purchased ahout
$4,000 worth of stock in the paper, but
Braun later declared that he had
bought the stock back.
When Braun left New York for
Vienna in 1915 he was said to have
carried secret messages from the Aus
trian Embassy al Washington and
Consul General Won Nuber, Austro-
Hungarian representative in New York.
ne BRITISH auLnOrlIIeS tooh pOSssSSAph
of the documents at Kirkwall, but
Braun continued his journey to Vienna,
returning to New York in the follow
ing September with Austrian motion
pictures for exhibition in America.
Braun wrote Secretary Lansing, after
the seizure of his papers, that he fire.
quently carried messages of the same
character on his journeys abroad, and
also brought back messages from for
eign governments destined for Wash
ington.
This was not tn only occasion in
which Braun experi need international
difficulties. While he was employed as
an immigration official by the Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor in 1905
he was sent as confidential agent OF
President Roosevelt to Austria-Hun-
gary to get information on the emigra-
tion question What ha learned during
his stay there so angered him that he
wrote of it to the newspapers of Buda-
pest. AS a result he was arrested by
the authorities of that city, but later
released. John Hay, then Secretary OF
State, wrote Congress, in explanation
of the affair, that Braun had been
guilty Of highly improper conduct.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Feb. 2T.-Man

to the belief of Sid J. Hare, student
Of archaeology. His opinion is based

five thousand years ego. Mr. Hare
spoke yesterday before the Missouri
Valley Historical Society.
II was the first to say the Lansing

epoch" Mr. Hare said.
The Lansing man, 8 skeleton, Mr..
Hare said, was found In 1902 near Lam

cry, Mr.. Hare said, he found glacial
drift ninety feet above the spot Re-
sent discoveries, such as the finding
in Kansas in glacial drift of animal

additional proof, he said.

MOTION FOR new
TRIAL IS FILED
Defendant Seeks New Trial In
Case Growing Out of Coal
Miners Strike

Motion for a new trial in the case
of Lonnie Anderson, negro. who was
convicted several days ago of muir
der in the second degree and given
10 years in the penitentiary for the
alleged killing of John Dawson. negro
employee of the Tennessee Coal, Iron
and Railroad company at Pratt City,
last March during the coal miners
strike in the Birmingham district was
filed in criminal court yesterday.
Eighteen grounds of alleged error
by the trial court are set out in sup
port of the request for a new trial.
The court is alleged to have commit
ted error by allowing the state to in
troduce evidence tending to show that
the defendant was a member of the
United Mine Workers of America at
the time of the killing and that there
was a strike of coal miners in prog
ress at that time.
Other grounds are alleged, prejudi :
cial remarks of the assistant solicit
tor in his summing up speech to the
jury and for the refusal of the court
to give certain charges to the jury
requested by defendants counsel.
The shooting in which Dawson was
killed is charged to have resulted
from an ambuscade of the Tennessee
company's employees by Anderson and
other striking miners while the nonr
union men were returning from work
in the Pratt City mines.

Who's Who in Birmingham
Among the Newcomers

are sending solid carloads of shrub
and ornamental trees out of town
quite often to even distant points.
I'VE began with about is employees,
but are now using around 100. 1t
takes lot of people to care for the
nursery and floral business. At first
our real estate holdings consisted
of S5 acres, while at present we
have $50 acres. i do not know ex-
actly how much of this is under
glass, but we have sufficient to care
for the ever growing cut flower
business which our Tutwiler Flower
Shop is doing
II was raised in the nursery bust
mes. My father tbefore me was a
horticulturist and a florist, and my
two brothers along with me are fol-
lowing in his footsteps. 1 am justly
proud of the fact that at present the
Fraser Nursery company Is amongst
the largest nurserymen in the whole
south, and that our flower trade is
increasing rapidly. There is a strang
thing, however, about Birmingham.
1t is away ahead OF many cities of
its size in the matter Of landscap-
ing. but some of the older cities use
many more cut flowers, but the peo-
pie are beginning to wake up to the
use of cut flowers for gifts and home
use.
II have been here long enough to
catch the Birmingham spirit, which
is no longer something to be desired,
but which one breathes in the very
atmosphere. l am doing everything
in my power to make the Fraser
Nursery company not merely busi-
ness, but cultural asset to my home
town, for l am now Birming-
hamer.."
