. Beadwork, enameled boxes, raffia bas- ~ kets and the designing of Christmas NO MORE LAWYERS MRS. BERGDOLL SAYS - Slacker's Mothe; Sa—ys They Only Want Her Money Philadelphia, Oct. 12.—Mrs. Emma Bergdoll ‘walked into the Federal court yesterday without a lawyer and personally filed her answer to the petition of the Alien Property Cus- todian alleging she had not turned over all of the property of her de- serter son, G. C. Bergdoll, now a refugee in Germany. Mrs. Bergdoll when asked why she was not represented by counsel said she was through with lawyers for- ever. “They are only good to sget your money and give you nothing” she said as explanation of her at- titude toward the legal profession. The mother of the slacker admitted in her answer that she had sent $10,- 000 to her son in Germany some time ago. The answer details all of her son's property, she says, and shows the amounts turned over to the gov- ernment. With the answer is filed a small paper bound memorandum book, five pages- of which are cov- ered with figures purporting to rep- resent the various items of property in the United States owned by the desterter. She gives the total valuation of his property as $750,000 after various deductions from cash and bonds rep- resenting expenses she says she in- curred by litigation following her son’s sensAtional escape abroad and while he was dodging the draft. She says she deducted all lawyers’ fees for her son’s ‘trial and convic- tion, the fines 'she paid for herself and thé other. deserter son, Edwin, and her fellow conspirators fine in connection with 'her son's escape, after conyiction, while heing taken to Maryland to recover a buried pot of gold. Mrs. Bergdoll denies in the answer that she is & trustee of her son's estate and says she acts merely as his attorney in" fact. In conclusion she informs the court that the gov- emment will have to prove;she has not 'turned over all the prbperty in her possession.

Cambridge, Mass., Oct. 12.—Vice- President Calvin Coolidge praised the spirit of loyalty to truth in an address here today in connection with the cel- ebration of the 75th anniversary of tbe irgorporation. of Cambridge as a city. "He dwelt upoh important part which, the community had played in New England -his m_Jhe iast colonial days and upon its Beuca tional and literary traditions. In con- clusion he sa; ‘“‘Cambridge has become more thana city. As the college became a uni- versity, 'the town has become a me- tropolis. The pursuit of learning pre- dominates but the multitude of worthy actions which support modern civilization are represented here. The ancient spirit lives. That same Jovalty to truth which sent the ritan inao the wilderness, supported the revolution and destroyed slavery cmptied alike her houses of industry and the halls of learning in the last great conflict between freedom and despotism. ‘They followed the truth. In what other words could we better tell the story of Columbus and his mariners, what more accurately describes the Purians, what prouder designation could be borne by Americans? True discoverers have been coming all the time sinece 1492, true Puritans all the time since.1630. . ‘““Camberidge is not merely a place and a name, it is an ideal. The peo- ple within her borders have followed the truth. That is sclemce. That is art. That is learning.. That alone is civfliz&_tlnn." Y. W..C. A.

Yester- day her cousin, Mrs. Franciska Behr of Dayton, filed a habeas corpus suit ask- ing for her release_ Attorney Frank Kunkel, representing the convent authorities, explained that Miss Reis had been kept in the convent because it was believed that was the best place for her. He said that at no time did the convent attempt to- keep any patients or other inmates who were of legal age against their will. Miss Reis was an invalid in her @&hildhood, he alsé said, and attempts to educate her were not successful. Only light tasks in the laundry just sufficient to keep her occupied had been given to her. The attorney said that until recently the convent authorities were not aware that Miss Reis had relatives who were interested in her and at no previous time had there been a demand for her release. Mrs. Behr said-that she would take Miss Reis to her home in Dayton. She had been at the convent recently and Miss Reis had asked her to try to obtain her release.
