Where could I find a more peaceful retreat than here In England? "At Le Coq iLe Couq-Sur-Mer, Belgium) I was always guarded. It was a terrible strain.

It interfered with my work. My friend has invited me here, and I hope to slay in England for a month." He said he was not responsible for the "brown book" which incurred Hitlerite wrath and which, Nazis alleged, was a compilation of victims of persecution. "I was on a committee which authorized publication of the book," Einstein said, "but did not write anything in It, although I agree with its contents." It was understood today that no permanent police guard has been provided at the Locker-Lampson estate, but local police are aware of the position and can be summoned instantly if necessary to aid private guards which the member of Parliament employs to insure the safety of his famous guest. Einstein's retreat has not been disclosed to the public although Its exact Ipcation is known to a few intimates who describe it as a "hut" or "shooing camp." Einstein arrived in England from Belgium Saturday night following a report that Nazis had put a price on his head. For Your Black In Eagle and noted radio com- mentator, arrived with his family today on the Swedish' American liner Kungsholm.

Mr. Kaltenborn was unmollified by the official German apology for the attack by Nazis on his 18-year-old son, Rolf, btit before discussing that in detail he attacked the Untermyer statement because he said "it showed a complete misapprehension of the strength of the Hitler movement." "The Germans would starve as they did during the war to maiutain their belief," he said. Boycott of No Use "It is silly to believe that a boycolt would have any effect except to strengthen those beliei's. Mr. Kaltenborn said that he could sympathize with the Jews over the "outrageous way they were treated in Germany" but Jews in Germany had suggested to him that "the less you Americans do openly for us as Jews the better it will be for us." Concerning the attack on his son, Mr.

Kaltenborn made public a new letter or protest he had written to the German leaders despite their apology and despite their announcement that hereafter foreigners in that country would not be expected to render the Nazi salute when the flag passed by. Answers Nazis The announcement about the salute signed by acting leader Hess, Hitler lieutenant, came to Kaltenborn while he was on the high seas. It read as follows: "It is customary In al lcountrles for foreigners to honor the country whose guests they are by rising from their seats or removing their hats during the singing of the national anthem, the salute to the fla? or In similar circumstances. "But a foreigner cannot be expected to salut or pay his respects in a way to which he Is not accustomed at home, for example, the raising of the right arm which constitutes the German salute. This Is no more to be expected than that a Protestant cross himself when he enters a Catholic church." In reply to this apology and new order Mr.

Kaltenborn wrote: "I wish I could believe that the announcement would suffice to prevent such incidents, but how is this possible unless every German can immediately recognize every foreigner? "My son was attacked by a civilian. He was standing bare-headed in front of a show window on the Lelpzlger strasse looking: at a display in the window with his mother, his sister and myself. His assailant tame up from behind and struck him without asking a question or uttering: a word." Mr. Kaltenborn also In his letter pointed out that the Germans had no right to ask foreigners to give the Nazi salute, which he said "represents a pledge of loyalty which no foreign flag can demand." Mailing Protest Mr. Kaltenborn closed his new letter of protest which lie said he i Expectation Should Be 77 Years anil Not 70, Savs Prof.

Slier in an Sept. 11 Translation of the results of laboratory expert- ments into popular household menus will not only increase the average span of life by 10 percent but will shift the age of those whose voice is dominant in human aff ail's from the present 58 to 65, according to Prof. H. C. Sherman, of Columbia University.

Dr. Sherman, addressing the American Chemical Society here, discussed the recently developed and now familiar "protective diets" and declared that all that remained to bring about the new state of affairs wes to interpret the results of the experiments in terms of meals for the family. Height of Power at 65 "The expectation of life," he said, will be extended from about 70 to about 77 years. Man at his chosen tasks will be at the height of his powers at 65 instead of 58. The age at which it is difficult to get Jobs in a new field, now commonly put at 45, will be 52." Milk, eggs, fruit and vegetables, Professor Sherman said, have been advanced in their status from that of "protective foods" to aid in raising the health normal.

"The great objective against which the protective foods diet is aimed," said Professor Sherman, "is the brad-meat-potato-sugar type of diet." The deficiencies of this diet, he explained, is its lack of calcium content and vitamin A values. 'Protective Foods' "Present knowledge," he said, "indicates that the best way to be sure of ample amounts of vitamins is to make milk, vegetables and fruit prominent in the daily dietary, with eggs as a supplement." The protective foods, he continued, furnish at least part of the 35 elements and compounds found essential in food. These are 15 chemical elements, 14 amino acids, which are products synthetized by the body itself from protein foods, at least five vitamins and one fatty acid. The protective foods, he said, should form about half of the total menu. For the rest the individual may eat what he likes.

New Use for Corn A new use for corn, to lock the fizz more tightly in fizzy waters, was described to the society today by Dr. H. E. Barnard of the Corn Industries Research Foundation, Indianapolis, according to the Asso ciated Press. This was one of a score of un usual chemical uses for corn, which he said would help absorb for this biggest of American crops the 15 percent excess which largely determines the profit to the farmer.

Corn, he explained, furnishes a chemical raw material perhaps the most important of all the basic materials which the chemist uses." This chemical is starch. 30 pounds of it to each bushel. For the new use in fizz water the starch is converted into dextrose, the cornstarch sugar. Sir Leo Money Fined for Kisses Epsom, England, Sept. 11 14) Sir Leo Chioza Money, distinguished economist, author and former member of Parliament, was convicted today of annoying a young woman 1 passenger in a Southern Railway car compartment last month.

He was fined two pounds and ten shilling. The prosecution asserted that Sir Leo followed the girl, Miss Ivy Rux-ton, into the compartment, Insisted on making conversation with her and finally seized her in his arms and repeatedly kissed her. Sir Leo declared in court there was nothing in the girl's charges, that she offered no objection to his kissing her fingers in a way complimentary to the smallness of her hands, which he admired. THIRST PROOF Albany, Sept. 11 Sinp April 1 the State has collected $1,966,913.50 in its beverage taxes of 3 1-3 cents a gallon on beer and 10 cents a gallon on wine.

President Mark Graves of the State Tax Commission announced here. Transparent Velvet McLaughlin Will Explain Continued from Page 1 condition that they would receive sentences of not more than three months? A. No. Q. Was there any agreement as to sentences when their plea was accepted.

A. No. I did not confer with defense counsel. May Seek to Withdraw Plea Mellon, who came to the court to attend the Solomon sentence, told reporters that he would seek to withdraw his plea and stand trial again if this were legally possible. Mellon's lawyer, Jacob Mandelbaum, said he knew of no such plan.

Judge McLaughlin announced the change in his schedule regarding Solomon In his chambers, and gave as his reason the announced determination of District Attorney William F. X. Geoghan to make a new effort to jail the racketeers by bringing them to trial on pending indictments. Judge McLaughlin, in suspending sentence on Mellon. Edward Lollo and Morris Rothenberg, advanced the date originally set for Sept.

2 by 24 hours and convened his court at the unprecedented hour of 8:45 a.m., explaining his course as required by altered vacation plans. Will Consider Bail "I have read In the papers," Judge McLaughlin told reporters today, "that the District Attorney will try Solomon and the others on other indictments, and consequently I will await the final disposition of the case before sentencing. I would have done so in the other cases had I known the District Attorney intended to place them on trial again. "I think, though, that it is only fair to admit this man to bail. He has served 27 days In jail, the same as was served by the others up to today, and I will hear an application to fix bail." The Jurist declined to make any statements concerning his sentence, the terms of the suspended sentences, or District Attorney Geoghan's plans for new trials.

Attorneys pointed out that Solo mon's previous conviction, by virtue of his plea of guilty, cannot be used against him in his trial if he has not been sentenced. If sentence has been imposed, it was brought out, the plea of guilty can be brought to the attention of the jury. Cuban University Student Board," which declared: "The United States Ambassador Is meeting In the National Hotel with 300 former officers and Is instigating a disturbance so debarkation of Yankee sailors will be provoked." Another Protest The League for Industrial Democracy announced today it had received the following telegram from the Cuban University student board: American Ambassador has brought together in the Hotel National 300 ex-officio traitors to instigate them to overthrow order and to provoke disembarking of American marines." Ford Slips Off In Car Trailer Continued from Page 1 today for an effort Hugh S. Johnson hoped would bring soft coal operators into agreement on an industrial code before the week is out. The NRA chieftain called groups of operators to his office for new personal negotiations dealing with the long list of objections filed by bituminous coal employers to the charter drafted by Johnson with President Roosevelt's approval.

Many of these objections dealt with labor relations a subject which yesterday drew from Senator Wagner of New York an appeal that employers and employes "forget all feuds" and "back the President's program by submitting their disputes to the National Labor Board" of which he is chairman. NRA May Impose Code In the minds of some coal men was the thought that Johnson eventually would have to Impose a code because of an inability to harmonize the many conflicting views. But Johnson himself pressed relentlessly for a code by agreement. He said: "From the co-operative, conciliatory and reasonable attitude now governing both sets of negotiations, I feel Justified in saying that my confidence in our ability to get a proper agreed code and a satisfactory settlement has not been shaken." Tear Gas Routs Strike Agitators Lodl, N. Sept.

11 Tear gas bombs were used by forty policemen today to force the retreat of several hundred strike demonstrators at the main gate of the United Piece Dye Works plant here. Thirty tear gas bombs were thrown at the demonstrators, who tried to "rush" the policemen on guard at the gate. They were forced back and at least a dozen of them were knocked down by the police clubs. Within a few moments the police men at the gate were reinforced by 150 special deputy sheriffs and private detectives stationed near the plant to maintain order during a demonstration by some 500 men and women who came here early this morning from Paterson to make an attempt to persuade the mill workers to strike. Eighty finishers from the plant walked out, but the remainder of the day the force of 1,500 workers remained at their jobs in the mill.

The two large mills of the United Piece Dye Works discontinued operations today "for an indefinite period" to avoid repetition of today's clash. Announcement of the closing was made by oJseph Brohel, controller, when the 1.500 workers were dismissed for luncheon at noon.

Welles Denies Plotting Washington, Sept. 11 (Secretary Hull today denied reports circulated in, foreign newspapers charging that Ambassador Welles has plotted with disgruntled Cuban army officers at the Hotel National in Havana.

At a press conference he read a statement from Welles which said: "I have never spoken to any of the army officers in the hotel individually or in assembly." Welles also said the hotel is the residence of a number of Americans, and that Americans are interested in it financially. Secretary Hull declared this government was not concerned in the least with individuals, groups or elements in Cuba, but that it desired principally to see a stable government, 1 Recognition of President Grau San Martin's regime today was regarded by the Roosevelt administration as a question to which Cuba's new government itself must supply the first answer. Await Test Should the new President and his Cabinet demonstrate an ability to maintain order and hold the support of the Cuban people, it was in dicated that speedy recognition would be forthcoming. But the same high sources said President Roosevelt first would make sure of this Important step and avoid hasty recognition of a government which later might prove without sufficient popular support to rule. Consequently the Administration showed no disposition to relax the naval preparations taken for the protection of lives and property in Cuba in event of an emergency.

Kaltenborn returned with his wife and his 22-year-old daughter, Anais, who is aso his secretary, and his son. Mr. Kaltenborn had been abroad since May, first coveringthe London conferenc, then visiting Russia, and finally paying a long visit to Germany, during which he interviewed practically all of the German leaders, including Hitler. Goebells, Goering and Von Hons-sUeniU, the last of whom was a classmate of his atjlarvard In 1909. Mr.

Kaltenborn said he was opposed to the Hitler movement on the ground that it was too extreme. "Though Hitler has done a remarkable job in unifying Germany," he said, "he has done an equally remarkable job in unifying the world against Germany." Pooh-Poohs War Mr. Kaltenborn pooh-poohed suggestions that Germany might be heading for war. He said that Hitler realized that however devoted the people were behind him he could not wage war which is now mechanistic without sufficient heavy artillery, tanks, bombing planes and speedy cruisers and could not even defend itself from invasion. The present sore spot of Europe, Austria, will see a "decisive change within the next 60 days," he said.

"There is a definite Austrian movement in favor of national socialism," said. "DoUuss, who lacks political strength, may or may not remain in power, and the movement may be modelled on German or Italian fascist lines, but I do not think it will involve Anschluss or union with Germany."
