COURT CUTS $20,000 $55,000 AWARD FOR DEATH OF DHUY CORRAO JROTE LIKE AN ANGRY MAN, PLEA OF LAWYER TO COURT OUR CHALLENGE All competitive breads, home made breads included, are challenged to equal the nutritional value of WARD'S VlTOVIM BREAD in public tests Tiffany Co.

By GUY HICKOK. Staff Correspondent of The Eagle. Paris, Dec. 8 Mrs. Harold W.

O'Connell of Brooklyn had the proverbial beginner's luck when she attended the races at Enghien on Nov. 14 her first race meet in any country winning 11,750 francs on one bet. She likes gray horses, and in the third race put 500 francs on the only two gray entries, Poin-meret and Le Normand. Fom-merct squeezed home by a nose; and when the lightning calculators of the government-controlled betting ring had figured, out the rate at which bets were paid, Mrs. O'Connell found herself richer by nearly J800.

Mrs. O'Connell could not be located in Brooklyn, and presumably is still abroad. Mark Rises in LVahie on Rumor Harding'Will Take Hand in Europe Problems A Month Ago We Issued This Challenge It Remains Unanswered! THE first day VlTOVIM BREAD was of fered to the public, the Ward Baking Com pany issued a challenge to, the bakers and house wives of the world to produce a bread equal in nourishment to WARD'S VlTOVIM BREAD. We offered to submit the VlTOVIM loaf in competition with any other bread, in public tests, and let the better loaf win. Sbice then we have repeated that challenge again and again in our newspaper advertising.

No one has accepted that challenge no one has taken up the gauntlet. Why? Because other bakers know that no other bread in the world can match WARD'S VlTOVIM BREAD in nutritive value. Do not be deceived by ambiguous statements, or by the extravagant, indirect or deliberately misleading claims which may from time to time be made for breads of inferior quality and food-value. Remember our challenge and remember that no one has dared to answer it I Tell Your Neighborhood Dealer Nothing But VlTOVIM mil Do For You And Your Children at a sum within Germany's capacity to pay. The first immediate consequence of the news, which was received yesterday from London, was the quick jump of more than Ave percent in the ralue of the mark to 7675 per dollar.

Calmer heads, particularly in Government circles, doubted that the L'nited States is yet ready formally to abate any claims against Europe, but considered the announcement of America's intention to emerge from its detached attitude toward European problems as good news of the first water, even if it is limited to pressure upon Europe to get busy on a real solution, and to put its financial houses in order. It is believed in these quarters that President Harding's intervention will take the form of diplomatic rather than financial assistance in arranging a settlement. VlTOVIM THE KEY Ward Baking Company Copyright 1921. by Ward Baking Company Lack of Literary Merit in Tal-ley Letter No Cause for Censure, Is Defense. "A lawyer, at the time of his admission to the Bar, swears to uphold the administration of justice and when a man becomes an officer of this court he undertakes to surrender the generally exercised right to abuse public officials because of the way they do their duty.

I urge that there is a difference between freedom with which a lawyer may address the court and that which any other member of the community may employ. It is the very essence of the lawyer's office that he should seek to preserve in the mind of public that respect for our courts which the Institutions of our Government require." This statement was made to the five Justices of the Appellate Division today by Mortimer W. Byers, counsel for the grievance committee of the Brooklyn Bar Association, in asking the court to discipline Francis L. Cor-rao, former assistant district attorney. Corrao wrote a letter to Judge Alfred J.

Talley of the Manhattan Court oi General Sessions, taking such vigorous and vitriolic exceptions to the Judge's statements about Sicilian criminals that the Bar Association trustees regarded it as "conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice." Robert H. Elder, attorney for Corrao, in urging that the proceedings be dismissed, declared that the letter was written by Corrao, citizen, to Talley, citizen, for the latter's attack on Sicilians as a race. "This could not by any chance interfere with the recipient's administration of justice," Mr. Elder declared. "If this is construed to interfero with Justice, then no lawyer or any citizen could criticise a Judge because it might make the judge think that somebody-thinks less of his court.

This concerns the liberty of speech and of the press in Its very fundamentals. "Where are the limits to be drawn about the rights of a member of the Bar to talk about a man on the bench? Is he to be circumscribed more than the ordinary citizen? When men get into public life they make themselves subject to public scrutiny. The letter of Judge Talley was certainly scurrilous in tone and cast a reflection on a large number of our population and gave it wide publication through the press. "The conduct of the judge justified a response from this citizen, the respondent, because he Is of the blood and the race attacked, and felt it was his duty to speak. If he had criticised Judge Talley in a polite manner, he would have been within the bounds and if he had been a private citizen nothing would have been said.

The language of his letter may not have been becoming to a gentleman, if you please, or to a member of the Bar, but this court has no function to criticise the literary quality of the letter. He wrote like an angry man But it in no way affects the judicial conduct of the learned judge to whom it was addressed. Decision was reserved. ASKS POLICE TO FIND HIS MISSING WIFE Mrs. Cutkosky's Boy Is Critical ly III With Pneumonia.

His son John, 6 years old, critically ill with pneumonia contracted since the disappearance of his wife, Roso. 22 years old, on the morning of Nov. 23th, last, Joseph Outkosky of 553 17th st. appealed to the missing persons bureau at police headquarters early this morning to aid In the search for his wife. Gutkosky told Letective Weisner that his wife had not been heard from since she left home with $11 to buy a new hat and a suit for their other son, Thomas.

3 years old. He has since been visiting hospitals and the homes of friends without, however, finding a trace of her. The missing wife is 5 feet inchei in height and 153 pounds iu weight. She has brown eyes and hair, a dark complexion, and wore a dark plush coat with gray fur collar, black dress, red plush hat and black shoes and brown stockings. TICKET AGENCY PLAN MEETS OPPOSITION The future of the plan of the Producing Managers Association to do away with speculators by selling tickets to all theaters at one central office, seems not quite so rosy today as it did at its birth yesterday.

The managers themselves are said not to be so sure of thcmsetVea and some of them are opposed to the project. Consequently no definite action has yet been taken. There has been considerable criticism of the plan, chiefly on the ground that speculators could continue buy seats in advance, getting them from the central office and selling them at their own prices. Though the established agencies would no longer con tinue, the less conscientious scalpers could go on their way rejoicing as they have always done. The ticket brokers assume an attitude of skepticism, saying that they will be glad to see the plan put into effect.

Objections are raised by the theater box office men who, if the thing i.4 put through, will find themselves working on part-time jobs, selling tickets at the theaters for only a short time before the plays begin. Fear has also been expressed that, should all tickets be on sale at one office, one office would be unable to accommodate the buyers. BANK HEAD HELD AS THIEF. Corinth, Dec. 15 Bank officials here today refused to discuss the arrest of John F.

Osborne, former president of the Citizens National Bank, on a Federal warrant charging "embezzlement of $90,000 of the funds of the bank or thereabouts." American Radio Exposition is to be held from Dec. 21 to 30. At first the managers. of the exposition wanted to have the minister officiate from San Francisco, but got a ruling and learned that in the State of New York a marriage is not legal unless the minister is within sight of the couple. Because of this the clergyman will be at one.

The Appellate Division Sustains Point Express Company Was Liable for Fireman's Injuries. The verdict of $35,000 awarded by a Supreme Court jury to Mrs. Delia Dhuy, who through her attorney, William S.

Butler, brought suit against the American Railway Express Co. for the death of her husband, Arthur L. Dhuy, was today modified by the Appellate Division to $35,000, and upheld as to that sum. If the lesser sum is hot ac. cepted, a new trial will be ordered.

This decision by the Appellate Division answers an important question concerning the relative responsibility of motor vehicle drivers and street railway companies towards passengers and pedestrians, for although the Nassau Electric Railroad Co. was originally named in the complaint, Justice Dike ordered it released from liability and the Appellate Division sustained that point, notwithstanding the fact that Dhuy was riding on the front platform of a St. John's pi. trolley car when he met death. Even the $35,000 awarded by the Appellate Division in place of the sum named by the jury is regarded by lawyers as a record judgment for the death of a man earning about $2,200 a year, which was Dhuy's pay as a member of the city fire department.

Dhuy's death occurred Oct. The trolley car on which ho was riding was approaching the big depot of the American Railway Express Company, on Atlantic near Carlton. A motor truck, heavily loaded, suddenly shot across the track for the purpose of entering the depot, and the trolley hit the truck amidships, breaking an Iron stanchion on the platform, the broken part hitting Dhuy on the head and causing Instant death. The trolley car, according to evidence brought out by Lawyer Butler, did not slacken its speed before the collision. TURKS UNYIELDING ON HOMELAND FOR ARMENIAN PEOPLE Withhold Final Decision Until Allies Present Detailed Plan for Protecting Minorities.

Lausanne, Dec. 15 (By the Associ-atedo Press) Turkey's delegates on the minorities sub-commission of the Near East Conference today again declared the establishment of a special Armenian homeland in Turkey impossible. They gave the impression that they were as intransigeant on this matter as In their determination that the patriarchate of the Greek Orthodox Church should be removed from Constantinople. Allied spokesmen tried conciliatory tactics. They suggested that, instead of abruptly rejecting any project framed to settle the Armenian problem, the Turks wait until the Allied proposition was fully framed, when they would'have opportunity to present their objections in detail.

The Turks yielded to the suggestion that a comprehensive plan concerning the protection of the minorities bo compiled by a special drafting committee, with the understanding that it would be based on the various European treaties providing for the treatment of minorities, and the meeting adjourned under this agreement. The Turks a bo accepted the prin clplo of recognition by law of the edu cational ecclesiastical bodies. While they agreed in principle to guarantees for the execution of the plans adopted for protection of the minorities and co-operation with the League of Nations, they reserved the right for discussion of these until the full articles are presented next Mon day. Armenians Offer Plan. When the sub-commission met this morning, under the presidency of G.

C. Montagna, Italian Minister to Athens, attention was called to memorandum submitted to the conference by the Armenian Committee. In this memorandum, the Armenians, after emphasizing their great losses through massacre, deportation and general privations, recalled that the Allies had solemnly promised to free them from the Turkish yoke. They added that the second and third assemblies of the League of Na tions had adopted resolutions favoring a national Armenian home. They therefore suggested three possible so lutions: First, to incorporate, in part at least, the arbitration suggestion of the President of the United States for se lection of the territory to be.

assigned to the Armenians; second, to extend the eastern frontiers, with access to the sea, of the Armenian Republic of Hrivan; third, to institute a national home in that part of Cilicia annexed to Syria by the treaty of Sevres, but which was ceded to Turkey by the treaty of Angora. INTERB6RO loses fight ON VENNER JUDGMENT The Appellate Division of the Man hattan Supreme Court today sustained Justice Vernon M. Davis in giving judgment to Clarence H. Venner against the Interboro Rapid Transit Company for $25,000 and Interest Sept. 1, 1,9 21.

The judgment is based on 25 1,000 three-year notes of the defendant company which fell jue Sept. 1. 1921. The total Issue of notes of this sort amounted to 4000,000.

McGRATH, EX-DAIL CONSUL, WARNED TO QUIT COUNTRY Gets Threat In Letter Because of Executions of'Rory O'Connor and Others.

(By the Associated Press.) Daniel J. McGrath, formerly Dail Eireann Consul to the United States today was warned to leave this country before the morning of Dec. 26 by a mysterious letter writer who signed himself, "Authority, Irish Republican Army." Mr. McGrath refused to comment on the warning, but admitted that the letter held him responsible for the executions last Friday of Rory O'Connor and three other Irish Republican Army officers. He refused to give out a copy of the letter, and would not state whether it contained a threat of death if he did not comply with its demand.

The letter was addressed to "Honorable James McGrath, Irish Consul." It was typewritten on a plain sheet of foolscap, and was rather long. The pu.MinarK on me envelope showed it had been mailed at Grand Central btation, at 6 p.m., Dec. 14.

This is the substance of a statement made yesterday by Boro resident Connelly coincident with sending a communication to John A McLulien, chief engineer of the Franchise Bureau of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment.

in the communication Boro President Connolly requested McCuIlen to furnish as soon as possible a statement of what franchise rights the now holds, and also, if possible, to learn what the attitude of the railroad towards re-establishing the line is.

IB The announcement hero that it Is President Harding's intention actively to intervene in the ettkment of the reparations problem has revived the former hope of the general public that America's contribution will take the form of a reduction of her claims against the Allies to permit a corresponding reduction in the reparations total and above all in American credits. The United States and Great Britain are pictured, even in responsible business newspapers, as getting their heads together to decide upon what conditions they can release their European debtors from part of their obligations, which in turn would permit the fixation of the reparations total MOONSHINE LEADER DIES IN FIGHT AFTER 3 AGENTS ARE SLAIN Bob Ballard Falls in Battle With Twenty Federal Officers and Brother Is Wounded.

TALK OF GOLDSTEIN AS DODD CHIEF AID Believe Gallagher Will Remain in Office, Too. The nninn of Louis Goldstein was brought to the front today in the discussion of candidates for First Assistant District Attorney under Charles J. Dodd. Goldstein has been in the office at 66 Court st. since the days of James C.

Cropuey. He made a name for himself in the Grout trial, and since then has been an outstanding figure on the District Attorney's staff. He was mentioned prominently as a candidate for chief prosecutor before the Democratic leaders agreed upon Magistrate Dodd. Those in closest touch with Dodd, say with certainty that Goldstein and Gallagher are to remain in the office. Gallagher, who is a vice president of the Madison Club, John H.

MeCooey's organization, was at first looked upon as the logical man to be appointed first assistant, but today the wind shifted and blew in the direction of Mr. Goldstein. Howard P. Nash, who has been spoken of as a candidate for a place on the staff either as first assistant or in some other capacity, will accept a position at 66 Court, "only under one consideration." What this "consideration" is, is not known, and Judge Nash himself will not say. Elections Commissioner Kane, Democratic leader of the 3d A.

Less than 25 percent of the number of motorists who had procured renewals of their licenses at this time last December have applied at the tax department for their 1923 renewals, leaving such a burden of business for the remaining two weeks time that it Is only barely possible for the department to take care of them In that time.

John H. Elliott, assistant director of the automobile license bureau, says there will be no extension of time such as was given last year. Motorists are advised that if they wish to avoid the confusion of a crush, the delay and possibly the failure to reach the proper desk in time, they should apply at once, either at the Brooklyn office, 317 Washington the Manhattan office at 65th st. and Broadway, or the Jamaica office, Twombly pi. and Jamaica ave.

Mr. Elliott said that this tardiness of the motorists to mae their applications is probably due to the fact that an extension of a month was givpn for the 1922 licenses. The Eagle calendar for 1923 bears, through error, the statement, "Last day to renew automobile licenses, Feb. This is incorrect. As Mr.
