Fifty hands. Ilka so many eemlphores

Tommy secured the royal permission to

An anxious youth promptly supple
mented thla with "motorcycles," and
there wera other offerings not as appro

of not stopping, looking and listening were
about to be "dramatised," as Mies Olsen

"Warren, Mlkey, Jerry and William,"
railed teacher and four small boya rose

The four boys, each representing one
wheel of the automobile, went to the back
of the room and Mildred and Dernlce took

Germans Make British Captives

WASHINGTON. Jan. a-Charge of
brutality on th part of German officer

Hcottlah rifle, who esoaped from prison
t Crefeld, were made public here tonight
by th British embassy. Th report of
th officer also has been put Into the
hands of Ambassador Page by th for
eign office In London.
The officer' statement declarea that
from the time lie waa captured at L
Basse on December 1? until he reachel
Crefeld he waa submitted to "continual
abuse and revelment" that hi great coat
waa taken from him and that he. Ilk

rived at their destination after "being
starved and confined for three days and
night."
A large part of th Journey, he says,
waa made in a closed car used for the
transportation of horses, filled with flies
and with so little ventilation that It was
almoat asphyxiating. Fifty-two men and
fivs officers, he assert, wars submitted
to these conditions for thirty hours with
no food. i
According to the major the British
prisoner wore treated much less con
siderately than the French and in on
case he states that th English were
given only the scant remnants of the
provisions after the French had finished.
One British officer, the report declares,
was spat upon by a German officer.
According to the report, one prisoner,
an Irishmen, told a story of having been
called to a gathering of his compatriots
and told by th commandant that tha
emperor knew of th downtrodden condi
tion of Ireland and that th Irish were
therefore to be transported ts a better
camp and given better treatment and
food than the English received. The sol

HOW TO CUT DOWN
USELESS JjITIGATION
Bar Association Committee Mtkei
Suggestions as to Means to
' Be Employed.
MUST SETTLE MORE CASES
BUFFALO. N. Y.. Jn. K.-Vhat th
lawyers might do to "discourage, reduc
or prevent unnecessary litigation," was
a subject Into which a committee of the
New York Bar association was crslgned
to look a year ago., and upon which it
returned an Interesting preliminary re
port at tonight' Bess on of the Bar as
sociation meetings here. The chairman of
the committee, Daniel P. Remsen of New
York, believed that this was the first
time any bar association had considered
the prevention of unnecessary litigation.
The committee reported first on the
prevention of unnecessary litigation at
Its source. The key to this, the commit
tee said, waa confidence and co-operation
between the laity and the legal profes
sion. Dty of Lawyer.
The second part of the report dealt
with a number of Interesting phases of
unnecessary litigation. In the matter of
settlements, the committee reported:
"This association can properly empha
size the fact that a lawyer's duty is quite
as much to settle disputes along the
lines of substantial justice as It ts to
try cases and get Justly In the fcrum."
As to the fomentation of lltlpatlon,
the committee reported that' "unfortu
nately some members of the legal profes
sion stir tip litigation, breaking unfounded
actions and set up defenses whoro they
know the facts do not warrant them In
so doing." The committee believed the
association could properly make further
efforts to discipline attorneys engaged
in such practices.
Coald Devise Means.
The committee believed the Bar asso
ciation could devise ways and means for
holding- lawyers to much stricter account
ability for their shortcomings. There were
those who were commercialising the pro
fession and bringing it into disrepute
thtough criticism that its mom ben were
"conspirators with clients in a plot to
defeat Justice." It also was suggested
that "this association can properly em
phasize the vital Importance on th part
of lawyers to write plain, lucid English"
and his standards should be required In
this respect.
As to strengthen ths bench, tho com
mittee reported that th Judiciary In New
Fork state was a much overworked body
of men "so driven with the multiplicity
of question raised that the trial Judneai
are unable to give each particular case
the time, eklll and attention It deserves."
The result was a dissatlsflcatlon which
led to appeals.

of foreseeing and preventing the breaks

It Is surprising how little care people

and what extraordinary car they lavish
whan they ar hopelessly diseased. It 1
for the reversal of these conditions that
ths modern physician labors continuously.
