EUROPE READY ~ TOVGNITE REVOLUTION, SAYS VANDERLIP: HOPE LIES INU. a Banker Adds to Previous Prophecies in Speech to Merchants’ Association. MUST GET HELP HERE. Disorganization of All Industry Likely to Cause Worse Hurt Than War. Frank A. Vanderlip, yesterday to be president of the great- who ceased est non-Governmental banking insti-< tution in the world—the National City Bank—delivered an address to-day at the last lupcheon of the Merchants’ Association for the season at the Hote! Astor.* He repeated his much-quoted as- sertions after several months’ study of after-war conditions in Europe, which were made at the meeting of the Economic Club a week ago Mon- day, and went even further in his prophecies of disaster if capital in the United States undertook to exploit the distressed condition of industrial Eu- Tope sellshly. William C. Breed presided at the meeting, which was attended by 2,500 members of the association, all active New York business men, keenly in- terested in Mr, Vanderlip's utterances because of his retirement from the ‘wank without previous notice at the first meeting of the directors follow- ing his first speech after returning from Europe. Among other things Mr. Vanderlip said: “I believe a hurt has come to Europe that may be greater than any hurt that is measured by the destruction that war has wrought—the disorgan- ization of the whole industrial ma- chine of the continent of Europe and in a lesser degree of England. “The disorganization of that in- dustrial machine is astoundingly complete, @ am not speaking of Northern France and Belgium. Flow- ing out of that lack of production, out of the idleness and want and the hunger, there may come forces more terrible than the war itself. “There is inflammable material in every European nation which can blaze revolution, and it will if the people are subjected to sufficient want and hunger and distress. You know we would all be Bolsheviks if we got hungry enough. i § i if Europe is to live. Europe can save herself only by going to work. And Burope is idle to a terrible degree at the present time “In the main we must give Europe credit, not credit to rehabilitate he: treasuries, which are very empty, but credit to rehabilitate her manufac- tures, credit in the form of raw material, of machinery, of a certain Safe to use —every day in keeping teeth clean and Aa 7 ————— irope Must operate its factories} —for everybody COLGATE’S Dentists and Mothers énow—just try Colgate’s in your family for enthusiasm FOR SPARK amount of food, of equipment for her railroads. “Unless Europe goes to work very promptly, Europe is going into trou- ble that is deeper than anything she has had. And then what of America? Some people have been calfing me a pessimist, but if you could share my opinon tof the opportunity that Amer- ica is going to bave in the world, the opportunity of service, of responsibil- ity, and of recompense; if you could share my opinion, you would be the most optimistic crowd of men that ever was gotten together under a roof. “L believe the raises in wages in England have been absolutely neces- sary. We cannot have underpayment of labor here either. Thé nation that dominates the world is going to be the nation that brings about harmoni- ous relations between capital and labor, “If we can add to the other tre- mendous advantages this nation has, @ real understanding between capital and labor which will bring labor gratefully to itssjob, then I believe | labor can have a greater share than ever it has had, and that capital can have a greater share, too; and that will be the greatest opportunity that America can have if it can reach that settlement.” David %. T. Yui, Secretary of the Chinese Commission which visted this country before the war, followed Mr. Vanderlip and talked frankly about the feelings of the Chinese towards the Japanese and the reasons why as- sistance from the United States was sought by China TOOK FIVE YEARS TO LEARN | MARRIAGE WAS. A MISTAKE Lawyer , Ordered to Pay | Alimony Says Wife Had No Sense of Humor. “Five years after we were mar- ried,” Isaac 8. McGiehan told Supreme Court Justice Van Siclen to-day in Brookiyn, “we agreed that it was all mistake. My wife was cold, almost a stoic. She was absolutely without & sense of humor, I married her out of pity.” Pending the trial of Mrs. Carrie McGiehan's suit for separation, Me- Glehan, descrited as a patent lawyer | with offices in Fifth Avenue, Man- | hattan, was ordered to pay $60 a week Jalimony and $200 counsel fees. | Mrs, MeGichan charges her husband | with abandoning her fourteen years ago.

Behind two carriages loded to over- flowing with floral tributes from his Tong brothers in a dozen cities L tween San Francisco and New York, the body rode in state to Evergreen Cemetery, Brooklyn, Long before the funeral started from No. 35 Mott Street, the little back room of the undertakers shop was filled with flowers which banked A.Miéchell Palmers Daught Nes ow ~ resentative Leland W.

A carriage stopped, a white woman in black dismounted, a Chinese of middle age followed and the two assisted, from the step, the bent and wailing figure of the widow of Leung. Dressed in the Chinese women's costume of trouser and coat af black, a heavy black mourning veil from her head to her hips, Mrs, Leung Kaj Main, sobbed her grief in a chant which rose and fell amid the minglod voices of English, Chinese, Yiddtah and Italian, thronging the sidewalk and surging into ‘the sanctity of the mortuary room. |; Tt was a Hip Sing Tong funeral, None of the other secret societies was represented. But the Hip Sings turned out. The pallbearers were members and the marshal of the| funeral and director of all affairs in it was K, B, King, Secretary of the; Hip Sing Tong, The band of seven pieces, which | rode in a carry-all, was comprised of Hip Sing brothers who aysembled at their headquarters at No, 15 Pell Street, The march was much more Ameri- can in custom than is common in Chinatown, That is due to Mr. King who is thoroughly Americanized. Not even were the little squares of | paper flung to the high winds to make it difficult for the Evil Spirit to_catch the soul of the dead one. Leung Kai Main owned three res- taurants and a drygoods shop, He was wealthy and lived at No, 146 Bleecker Street with his wife and four children, Marly in the day the funeral service was preached at the —— SOCIALISTS HERE GALL BOMB QUTRAGES FRAME UP Work of “Agent Provocateur” Says | Julius Gerber—No One Indorses and All Disavow.

John Reed, one of the leaders of the Socialist Left Wing—"Bears all the marks of a deliberate attempt on the part of the capitalists to try to pro- voke hostility against Socialists. The International Socialist movement has nothing to do with individual acts of terrorism.” Julius Gerber, executive secretary of the New York rocal of the Soclal- ist Party—"Might have been the work of an ‘agent provocateur’ employed by_@ private organization.” Joseph Weinber; Defense Commit The Interna- tional Workers’ Defense League una nimously condemns these explosio Mitchell Palmer has shown himself desirous of bringing about justice in the Mooney case.

Corporation Counsel Burr to-~day announced that the city has been successful in @ suit involving prac- tically $1,000,000, carried to the United States Supreme Court by Commodore Ellas C, Benedict The litigation arose from the issue of improvement certificates of the First Ward of Long Island City under an Act of 1874, Commodore Benedict contefAding that as the Treasurer of Long Island City had not redeemed the certificates the City of New York, as the successor Long Island City, was Mable for the payment. ‘The certificates were issued against assessments levied on properties im- proved and were to be redeemed when the assessments were paid or the property sold for nonpayment. The statute authorized the issue, but com- pelled the Treasurer of Long Island City to sell property on which ass ments had not been paid for not less than the amount of the assessments. This Act was subsequently amended, allowing the sale of the property for less than the amount of the assess- ment. This, Commodore Benedict claimed, wns unconstitutional and made the certificates worthless. F you buy— but also absolucely ute after the arrival of the sound of firing.
