secreting mortgaged property, was
called. Ranagano had been seen in the

earlier. Mr. Malone has been stopping
at the Vanderbilt Hotel since his recent

POLICE ONLY HEARD
ON DONOHOE ACTION
Birth Control Advocates Ex-
cluded-Counsel Voices
Indignation.

Robert McC. Marsh. counsel for birth
control advocates, protested last night
against the exclusion yesterday OF his
clients and other members OF the Birth
Control League from the hearing at Po-
lice Headquarters. at which Capt.
Thomas Donohoe, in command OF the
West Forty-seventh street station, tes-
tilted as to his responsibility in break
ing UP the Town Hall meeting Of No
vember IS.
Mr.. Marsh was particularly indignant
because neither he nor his clients, Mrs.
Margaret Sanger and Mrs. Juliet Rublee.
were notified that the hearing was to
take place, although he said Chief In
spector William j. Lahey had promised
that such notification would be made.
Inspector Lahey said last night he had
told Mr.. Marsh at the close of the last
hearing that the complainants against
Capt Donohoe would be called If their
testimony was wanted.
The attitude OF the police officials
was that the session yesterday was
purely q departmental matter involving
certain complaints against Capt. Dono-
hoe, and that 1t was not necessary to
invite either Mr.. Marsh or any Of the
women identified with birth control
propaganda to attend as spectators.
In his testimony before Inspector
Lahey Capt. Donohoe took upon him
self the entire responsibility for closing
the Town Hall meeting.
No mention was made Of any requests
received from Catholic clergy, but Capt.
Donohoe said he had received letters
complaining OF Mrs. Sanger1s enterprise.
and upon investigation he had observed
children between 10 and 12 years Of age
in the hall.
Prevention as well as the detection OF
crime was part Of his duty as a police
captain, he seid and from what he knew
of Mrs. Sanger's activities and the ma
ture Of the meeting nc felt that the law
would be violated. The majority Of the
women In the hall. he said, appeared to
be under 20 and unmarried. Any failure
to act on his part would have laid him
open to charges OF neglect OF duty, no
said. From what he learned or the
rceeting, he said, he concluded that the
motive back OF II wsls a commercial one.
Mrs. Margaret Whitehurst, police
woman. whose testimony convicted Mrs.
Sanger In 1915 OF having disseminated
birth control literature and appliances
at a Brownsville clinic. was also wit
ness. she testified that she had seen
children at the meeting. Sergeants Pat
rick FitzgftJbons and Augustus Hand
werg and Patrolnen William Davis ana
Thomas Gain bore out Capt. Donohoe' g
statement that young women comprised
the majority of the audience.
At the conclusion OF the hearing In
snector I.ahey announced that he would

LII. AQOlI LOrenZ, SaQQeneQ ana De-
widered by the attacks which have
been made upon him, announced at the
opening of a clinic at the Department
OF Health Building yesterday that he
intended to return Immediately to vi
emma, but later, after a plea by DR..
Royal S. Copeland, Health Commis-
sioner, he decided to remain for at
least short time longer.
Although most OF the criticism
which has been directed at DR.. Lorenz
has been shown to be due to misunder-
standings, he let it be known that he
believed his actions would be watched
with suspicion and attempts made to
misconstrue what he does. Even last
night, after he had received assur-
ances from many surgeons in this city
that they felt no i'll will toward him,

When DIR. Lorenz arrived at the
Health Department clinic he read this
statement to the assembled physicians

"On the contrary. I feel sure that I
promoted these interests. I recon-
mended hundreds of necessary opera

but by American doctors.
''I say I harbor no malioe, and hope
there will soon be a reconciliation and
acceptance of the proffered hand of
friendship. If once the ice is broken
the current will do the rest. In the
mar future a reconciliation must take
place anyhow

American people for all they had done

Vienna. 1 did not fail in that. My en-

superhuman efforts and tried in vain.

DIR. Copeland then held an earnest
consultation with Dr. Lorenz and finally
induced him not TO return to Vienna
now.
Don't be disturbed. Professor" said
DR.. Copeland, by what O. few people
say. We have class in this country
