DEFENDS HUN WAR ACTS; IS HECKLED BY ACADEMY AUDIENCE Prof. Bowman Says German Atrocities Not Intended and Have Been Exaggerated. Some interesting and unexpected statements in favor of the German people made to a large Brooklyn Institute audience by Professor Archibald A. Bowman, of Princeton University, aroused considerable protest from the audience, and the speaker was subjected to some rather severe heckling in the Academy music hall last evening. Professor Bowman served during the war as an officer in the British Army and was taken prisoner by the Germans and confined for about seven months, before the armistice was signed, in various German prison camps.

His lecture last evening was a graphic and intensely interesting recital of his experiences, the dominating factor of which was the long and weakness suffered because of the continued hunger and the privations pathetically meager rations given him and his brother officers. Yet at the conclusion of his tale of suffering, which was made even more vivid by the story of the German method of treating surgical cases, effective physically yet torturing from the humanitarian's viewpoint, the former British officer made this statement: "The German method of treating all patients, whether their own or their prsoners, throws a certain light on German atrocities. Making allowances for all that, I have come to' the conclusion that the story of German atrocities has been greatly exaggerated. I believe that they were not the German intention, though they may have been the German effect, and we must bear that in mind. My impression after long study of the Germans was that they were extremely neurotic, mentally unstable and suffering from the excessive strain of war.

I learned to have a high impression of the ordinary German soldier and DEATHS. HAMERSLEY--KATHERINE. Services "'The Funeral Church' (Campbell Bway 66th Tuesday, 8 p.m. HAMMEN On Sunday, Nov. 16, 1919, JULIA HAMMEN (nee Baum), beloved wife of Louis Hammen and mother of William, Lillian C.

7986 WINDSOR. Pigs Is Turkeys, 7 Women Plead When Health Officer Rounds Up Flock in Gutter Health Department Inspector George R. Stark, strolling down 27th this morning, looking for bad odors, undumped garbage and other offenses against the Health Department laws, came face to face with 40 pigs, playing, as pigs will play, in the gutter. Keeping pigs without a permit is against the law, and keeping them in certain parts of the city, congested that no permits are ever issued. This districts, is so violently against do the law part of the boro, 27th between 3d and 5th is a part of the congested district where pig permits are not valid.

Forty pigs here amounts to a penal offense, but it has been several hundred years since an animal was made a defendant in court, so it devolved upon Inspector Stark to locate the owners. Alone and unassisted he set out to startle the 40 pigs so that they would make pig tracks for home. He grunted first in what he thought might be piggish for "Back to the home troughs," but the pigs were apparently illiterate or foreign pigs, for they displayed no sudden desire to leave the luscious gutters of 27th st. Inspector Stark took direct action, tried end runs, center rushes, flank attacks and fake kick and forward formations with such success that the pigs were soon in the same state of mind as the Yale team last Saturday, but still they resisted the suggestions to go home. Once, in his dogged attack, Inspector Stark was dumped by two pigs acting as interference, and two more pigs, in on realizing the there scrimmage, was tearing the inno referee, piled spector's trousers but not injuring him enough to leave the game.

my experience was that nine out of ten were humane. I am convinced that underlyling the effects of his artificial civilization is a stratum of uncorrupted humanity. The war is over, hostilities are at and end. Peace is our opportunity. One of the causes of the war was a mutual misunderstanding 01! the part of the people concerned.

I speak with a purpose because I feel it to be my duty. It is for us all to try to get at the bottom of the mentality of other nations than our own, to find out the good in other people to inculcate a certain amount of sympathy in our own people. The cause of the war is that the German, and American and English did not understand each other." Questions were hurled upon Prof. Bowman after this" statement, one indignant man asking if he maintained that there was no deliberate and definite aim at devastation on the part of the German authorities. The lecturer he believed the devastation result deliberately adopted policy of terrorism, but he said that his association with the mass German people, both as a prisoner of war and after the armistice on duty in occupied territory, had convinced him that a large proportion of the common people did not know of the atrocities and would never have approved of them.

He soldiers spoke of known cases of German imprisoned for refusing to fire on Belgians. One questioner, a woman evidently German English, implied affiliations, that to the which he respeaker had plied with great dignity: "I gave up everything in life that was to me worth while and went to fight for a cause which I believed then and which I still continue to believe just," a statement that provoked the loudest applause of the night. Prof. Bowman described his life in German, prison camps as "a somewhat depressing but not uninteresting experience," from which he emerged with no feeling of bitterness. He told with considerable humor the efforts of himself and his brother officers to while away the monotony of camp life (the officers were not made to work) by giving lectures on every conceivable subject, and described with vivid detail the unsucessful efforts of some of them escape.

After being in a large concentration camp in the south of Germany, he was moved to a wretched small camp. which was later condemned by an official Dutch investigation. DEATHS. DEATHS. SAFFORD-On Tuesday.

23, 1919. SUGAR SHORTAGE MAY LAST MONTHS Rationing Will Be Necessary Until March, Says Expert. Prices to Be Kept Low. The sugar shortage will probably continue until February or March of next year, according to a representative of one of Brooklyn's large retail store systems. Rationing of sugar will be necessary throughout this period.

For the next two weeks especially, the shortage will be keenly felt because of the action of the Sugar Equalization Board in cutting down allotments to one-half their previous level. For this reason one or two of the refineries in this vicinity are temporarily not operating. Reports that the sugar situation is about to clear up were denied as premature and untrue. It was said that the manufacturers were now able to get some sugar because of the lifting of the mbargo on sugar from Brazil, Peru and all other countries except Cuba Russia. The manufacturers are also being allowed to pay whatever they wish for the sugar, regardless of the arbitrary price set by the Sugar Equalization Board.

the expert said that they would not, sugar might not solve the problem, Asked whether substitutes for cane a because people were distrustful of any but pure white cane sugars. Rainbow sugar, an artificially colored but entirely pure variety of cane sugar, had failed to sell when offered as a substitute, it was said. The Sugar Equalization Board gave out the following statement today: a "For the week ending last Saturday, Nov. 8, refiners from Cuba and Porto Rico 79,647,680 pounds of raw sugar and melted 97,415,360 pounds in the same week. Of this amount 13,720,000 pounds were sent by the Royal Commission, out of their share of the Cuban crop, to be refined here.

Allowing for minor exports. there was left a balance of about 80,000,000 pounds refined for domestic consumption for the week, or about 2 pounds for each of the 40,000,000 people living in the Eastern part of the United States, who depend upon the Eastern refineries for their supply of sugar. This is on the basis of about 104 pounds per year, which is considerably above the normal per capita consumption in the United States of 83 pounds. 'Ag further evidence of our ab. normally large sugar consumption, it I is interesting to note that the 000,000 people of the United States consumed as much sugar in the year from Sept.

1, 1918, to Sept. 1, 1919, as the combined consumption of the 200,000,000 people of the United Kingdom, France, Italy, Belgium, Holland and Germany. We have consumed one-quarter of the world's production and one-half of the world's total exportable surplus, but our sugar tooth is apparently far from satisfied. "In spite of our large demand and the world shortage, the price of sugar has been kept in the United States far below the world level. Government control of sugar in the United States has saved the the United States at least $250,000,000 on their 1919 sugar bill." WILSON SITS ON LAWN WHILE CABINET MEETS Washington, Nov.

18-While his Cabinet was meeting in the executive offices of the White House this morning, President Wilson again was wheeled out to the south lawn, where he remained in the sunshine for half an hour. Secretary Lansing presided at the Cabinet meeting, which was the regular weekly session, and most of the members were present. "TOO BIG FOR CLASS" GIRL, 13, DISAPPEARS May Doyle Felt Conspicuous Among Children of Same Age. Gone Three Weeks. After a vain search of three weeks Mrs.

May Doyle pearly, Farragut rd. has asked The Eagle to aid her in her efforts to find her 13-yearold daughter, May, who disappeared from her home just three weeks ago tomorrow and from whom nothing has has been heard since. Only the humiliation of facing her schoolmates in the 5B grade at P. S. No.

89, at Newkirk ave. and E. 21st is given as the reason for May's leaving her home. Mrs. Doyle explained that her daughter was very tall for her age and was in fact the tallest girl in her class.

She had often told her mother that she hated to go to school because of the difference in size between her and the other girls in her class. May was promoted to the 5B class last term and was then under the care of the family physician. Her doctor had told Mrs. Doyle that it would be better to keep the girl out of school for a time and May secured a position as usher in a Flatbush motion picture theater during the summer months. She then went to another Flatbush theater as an usher, but inquiry there brought out the fact that the girl had left her position there the Saturday before leaving home.

There are several strange circumstances about the case that have puzzled Mrs. Doyle. A little over a week ago a soldier in uniform came to Mrs. Doyle and said he believed he could get the girl back home if Mrs. Doyle would not report the matter to the police.

After her daughter's disappearance Mrs. Doyle found a silk handkerchief in the house with the name of a soldier worked and the word Paris in one corner. Mrs. Doyle found I that the man was a friend of one of the girl ushers at a theater and that the handkerchief had been given to May. Mrs.

Doyle goes to business every day and has not had the opportunity to watch her daughter. She said today that her daughter was of a very quiet disposition and that she did not have any boy callers at the home. She also stated that she was at a complete loss to understand where her daughter might be, but that she was very anxious to find her and urged anyone who might see the girl to call a liceman and have her held until Mrs. Doyle could be communicated with. The disappearance of May has been reported to the police, but the reau of Missing Persons has not reported any results.

With a quick flash of the wrist the Inspector whipped out his summons book and in a twinkling wrote summons for each of the objectors to appear before Magistrate Steers in the 5th ave, court and tell why pigs were allowed to roam through the streets. Before Magistrate Steers they appeared and the Magistrate asked the why and wherefore of the pigs. "But they are not pigs, your Honor," said one of the defendants. "No?" said Magistrate Steers, eyeing Exhibit 1.

"They are turkeys," insisted the are the feathers?" asked fendant. The explanation was simple. Turthe Magistrate, still unconvined. keys are the goods for Thanksgiving and Christmas, but turkeys are perching higher this year. Where one cannot afford turkeys one might kid oneself along.

So these ones kidded themselves thus--pigs were to be cepted as turkeys "Despite this, keeping turkeys-pigs is against the law. I suspend sentence on you providing that these pseudoturkeys grow feathers within two days or otherwise provide themselves with better disguises. On Thursday morning, no animal that even looks like A pig must be seen on your street. Case is dismissed." The Woman Voter Mrs. Jessie McGahie, assistant secretary, and Miss Elizabeth Collier, vice chairman of the Republican County Committee, presented opposite views yesterday afternoon regarding the teas which have been held at headquarters for the past year.

Miss Collier believes they should be continued along the same lines, while Mrs. McGahie advocates transferring them to the Assembly districts and having the headquarters gatherings more in the form of a political school. The 3d A. D. entertained yesterday with Mrs.

Lulu Simonson as hostess assisted by Mrs. Bernard Paulsen, Elizabeth Otis, Mrs. Gill, Mrs. A. C.

Hassett and Miss Aloise Simonson. Commissioner Livingston spoke briefly, announcing the removal to new quarters at 26 Court st. on Dec. 1. Miss Collier said: "I feel it is better to have the teas at headquarters as the women become better acquained." She asked for women watchers for the canvass now being conducted at Boro Hall.

Mrs. MaGahie outlined her plan "The teas have proced their value," she said, "but now it seems to me they should be taken up by the districts. I that to take the place of these gatherings we form a school for political study to meet once twice a month. Perhaps one district could furnish the speaker; another tea if desired. We need Could not the women start a political library which was so greatly needed by the speakers' bureau in this last campaign? We could donate books 01' give a small subscription to cover the cost.

I wish you women would take this thought home and pass it on." The Republican post-election "patronage" included only a small number of positions, few of which are suitable for women according to the reports. One undersheriff, 8 deputy sheriffs, 8 assistants, 8 keepers and 2 matrons are in the Sheriff's office. The two matrons' jobs have been held for some years by a Democrat and a Republican and are minor positions with small salaries. In the Register's office are two positions, assistant deputy register at $2,500 and secretary at $1,800, in which the duties could be assumed by women. There is a possible position under La Guardia, but little hope of a woman landing it.

CAMPBELL "THE FUNERAL CHURCH' C'way at 66th Manhattas PHO ul.t Minis Dost own odice, 8. Av Efforts will be made this afternoon at a meeting of the Board of pal Court Justices of the city to duce Justice Alfred Denton, who presides over the Third District Municipal Court in Queens, to retire from the Bench and go on vacation until his term of office expires on Dec. 31. At a meeting of the Queens justices last Saturday, which was attended by Presiding Justice Aaron J. Levy, an effort was made to induce Justice Denton gO on vacation, Justice Levy today, but the Queens ontated jurist refused to comply with the request.

It he persists in his refusal this afternoon, Justice Levy stated, some means will be found to relieve him of active duty, probably by signing him to a court with another justice where there is only work for one. Justice Levy stated that the request to Justice Denton to g0 on vacation was prompted by complaints from number of lawyers who have appeared before him recently that he was not in fit physical condition to continue his work as judge. The lawyers stated that devote Judge whole Denton would frequently a day to disposing of 3 calendar that in other courts would be disposed of within one or two hours; that he would stop a trial to spend as much as an hour. to read various legal papers, and otherwise conducted his court in an unusual manner. "The statements made to me seemed to justify a request that Justice Denton consent to be relieved from further active duty," Justice Levy stated, "and at the meeting last Saturday such request was made.

But Justice Denton is unwilling to yield. His health is delicate, and in the interests of the public and to see that the administration of justice is properly conducted, I deemed it my duty to act. "I have power to transfer a judge from one district to another, but have not the power to relieve a judge from active duty. That is what makes this situation so delicate. There has been no hint of any improper conduct on Judge Denton's part, and nothing to warrant any removal proceedings.

We hope that when the matter is presented to the full Board of Justices this afternoon Judge Denton on will change his mind and go on vacation. If not, we will have to find some other means of relieving him of active duty and give him the rest he clearly needs." Judge Denton has been active in Queens politics for a number of years, and is completing a 10-year term on the Municipal Court Bench. He did not stand for re-election this year. The court over which he presides is in the Glendale section. MURPHYS WED 50 YEARS Mr.
