SENIOR LEAGUE DENIES
ARREST RESPONSIBILITY
Action of individual ToUard
Veterans DisapproUed.

Disapproval of the action OF Miss
Alice Dorsey of the Senior League in
causing the arrest of James O'Donnell
of the Raymond McIvor Post. Veterans
of Foreign Wars of Brooklyn, for selling
poppies to be worn Memorial Day in
aid of disabled soldiers. was voiced yes
terday by Capt. G. c. Hart, secretary Of
the Senior League.
Miss Dorsey is a Y. w. G.. a. girl
and n volunteer worker for the Senior
League said Capt. Hart, "but what
ever she did in preferring charges
against O'Donnell was without the
knowledge or sanction of the Senior
League officers. We knew nothing of
the matter until We saw the news
papers.
"Our relations with the various vet
erans' organizations have been friendly
In every way and we constantly seek
TO cooperate with them. ] cannot
imagine why Miss Dorsey questioned
ODonnelrs action in selling peoples to
assist--former service men. The MEM
bership OF the Senior League Is not
the sort that would stoop to petty ac-
ton of that sort and we feel much
distressed over the matter"
Capt. Hart said that the disabled
soldiers really received a double BEN
eft from the popples sold by the Senior
League. Men at the leagues Dug
OUT in East Sxty-first street, are paid
for their manufacture and the proceeds
of the sale also are used for their as

Second and Third Avenue
Band Has Made Million
in Liquor.
DEADLY FEUD PREDICTED
Leaders, Visiting in Italy,
Expected to Return and
Avenge Henchman.

Police of the East Thirty fifth street
station said last night tLat John Freed
of 10 Merice avenue. Woodside. Queens
who was murdered last week in a hall
way at sos East Thirty-ninth street
was killed by gang of Italian boot
leggers who were jealous and angry
because Freed, Jew, had been placed
at their head
Freed was found lying IN the kali
way with five bullet wounds in his
body, and died in Bellevue Hospital
without telling the detectives who shot
him.
The detectives, however. said the in
vestigation showed that the murder was
the result of a bootleggers' quarrel. Ac-
cording to their information. Freed was
member OF n large gang which op-
Grated stills and sold moonshine along
Second and Third avenues.
This gang. controlled by n group of
italians. is said to have made more than
81 900 since prohibition. Recently
the leaders of the gang went to Italy,
and they left Freed in charge of their
business and at the head OF the boot
leggers.
Information obtained by the police in
dicates that the bootleggers. all Italians
except Freed. held a meeting and de-
cided that Freed must be killed. They
did not believe that their leaders had a
right to place Jew over them. and that
the place should have been filled by an
Italian. Freed was trailed for several
days and finally shot to death at time
when he did not have his revolver with
him and could not defend himself
Freed had been warned. said the po-
lice, but he declared that he was not
afraid and refused to accept any aid
from his friends. The news of the
shooting has been sent to Europe, and
the police believe that these men, when
they return to the United States, will
try to avenge Freed, and that boot
legGers war will start which will prob
ably be the worst of the sort the police
have had to deal with in recent years.
All of the leaders of the gang have
powerful connections i'm criminal circles
and while things are quiet along Second
and Third avenue now, the faction that
supported Freed and the faction that
killed him are watching each other
closely and the detectives believe that
trouble will soon develop.

DANCING JAP BUTLER
is SEIZED AS FORGER
Toro Konishi, Popular in Gay
Resorts, Accused of Issuing
Many Bogus Checks.

The dancing career of Toro Konishi.
80, a Japanese butler, who, according
to the detectives, is known under sew
eral other names to many of the patrons
of various dance halls in the YorEville
district. ended temporarily yesterday
whe he was arrested by detectives of
the Burns Agency and charges of forg-
cry and held in $500 bail in the West
Side Court for a hearing tomorrow.
The story of the arrest of the Japan
csc and his history, according to the
detectives, is most interesting. The
specific charges against Konishi, who
wa found in a rooming house at 1888
Wes. Twenty-third street. are that in
January, while working as butler for
Mrs. Grace H. Rayner of 1853 West
Fifty-sixth street. he forged her name
&c checks on the United States Mortgage
anu Trust Company's branch at Seven
ty-second street and Broadway for
various amounts totalling S771.50.
Another charge that Konishi forged
checks amounting to S234. 50 on the Corn
Exchange Bank while working for DR..
II J. Wiener, S53 Seventh avenue also
was made.
The long trail followed by the de-
tectives, which led them to numerous
dance halls. where Konishi, also known
there as Kondon, Tamino. Damo, and
j. Chaeco, ended yesterday when the
butler answered q "relp Wanted" adj
vertisement. The advertisement, which
called for n Japanese valet who wished
20 take part in travelling venture, was
am wered by Konishi under the name
OF Arthur Kamada, and the detectives
thus learned of his whereabouts after
search begun last January.
According to the detectives. articles
about the prisoner were published in
April in the japanese Times, 35 Sixth
avenue, telling of alleged instances
where the young Japanese had posed
as a member of the Japanese royal
family and also as the son of the Chief
Justice of Japan and had obtained
money through these false pretenses.
The japanese Times also published a
picture of the butler.
Mrs. Rayner, whose signature was
closely Initiated in the alleged forgery
discharged Konishi, then known as
Arthur Konda. after he had been in her
employ one week. Soon after this the
checks were received from her bank
and she placed the matter in the hands
of the Burns Agency. Then Followed
the same sort of story from DR.. Wiener
who also said that various petty thefts
had been committed during the time
IL konishi was in his employ.
\ picture of the butler finally was
picked up at the Japanese Y. NJ. c. A.
in Concord street, Brooklyn and as
the result of advertisements the arrest
resulted yesterday. When arraigned
* onishi neither admitted nor denied the
charges against him, but said power
-.
Newark would kill him if he said any
thing about the checks. He was ar
rested on advice of the Burns detec-
tive by Patrolman Joseph Horn of the
Twenty eighth Precinct, and Detective

ing Unrest Among Teachers
in Loyalty Tests.

George j. Ryan, president of the
Board of Education, yesterday made
public a letter he has sent to Frank
p. Graves, State Commissioner OF Edu-
cation at Albany requesting him to
abolish the Advisory Council on Teach
ers' Qualifications. which has been eX-
amining into the records of applicants
for teaching licenses and applying 10y
atty tests authorized by the Lusk law.
The letter follows
I'm accordance with action taken by
the Board of Education at its meeting
on Wednesday, | am writing to you, in
behalf of the board, to request that
you abolish the Advisory Council or
Teachers Qualifications that Is sum-
moning before it members of the super
vising and teaching staff. Briefly, the
reason for this request it that there
is no need for such a council, DIR. Ettin-
ger having informed the Board of Edu-
cation that but thirty-thrce or thirty
four teachers at most were involved.
number that could easily be invest-
gated by the board OF suoerintendents.
There is increasing evidence that the
council is causing unrest among
teachers and is not desired by them;
the procedure attempted by the council
Is unfortunate and undemocratic and
11nally, the Board or EducatlOn ana the
Board of Superintendents are in the
best possible position TO furnish you
with any and all information necessary
TO enable you to reach a decision as tc
teachers qualifications.
ut was suggested at the meeting of
the board but not acted upon. that the
Board of Superintendents might we'll be
substituted for the council. You may
wish to consider this
I'm connection with this entire pro.
ceeding. | desire to direct your atten-
ton to the fact at no time was the
Board of Education consulted in this
matter. 1t did not take any step to
further the creation of this advisory
council. l am certain that it would
not have favored and that it does not
approve of, such secret inquiries as is
being prosecuted.
1T seems TO me pertinent to submit
TO you, as State Commissioner of Edu-
cation. that matters affecting so vitally
the public schools in this city and the
supervising and teaching staff be taken
up directly with the Board of Educa-
tion. Had this policy been followed in
this case much unrest in the teaching
staff would have been avoided and the
necessity would not now be present of
asking you to terminate the activities
of this council.
THE members of the Board of Educa-
ton are desirous of cooperating with
the State Department of Education In
its work and of assisting wherever pos
sible. Such cooperation will be ex-
pedited\ by consultation directly with
