Household Effects In
ROUTE "SPIES" AT MEETING
Mayor Mooro has been nsked to com
msndeer unused breweries ns ware
houses for the siorngo of household
goods of evicted families.
This action was .taken at a meeting of
tho Pennsylvania Tenants' Prptectivc
Association nt C030 Thomas avenue last
night.
Many members of the association, It
tvnn iinl.l ,a nt,nf in hn ArtMerl nnd If
narehouses are provided for tliclrl
household goods they will be able to
camp In the park or some other places
until they can obtain a home.
The Mayor also wns requested to turn
over the palatlat homo of Grover C.
Iiergdoll. convicted draft dodger, to
evicted tenants. If possible. The rcsi
dencc is nt Fifty-second street nnd
Wynncflcld avenue.
The meeting wns interrupted several
times by persons alleged to be spies of
landlords. A high-powered touring car
was in the vicinity of the raecUng hall,
and men were seen to run out of It
nnd throw onen the door to tho meet
lug. Severnl of thc tenants dashed down
the uteris nnd liiirsued the alleged
"spies," but they escnped. Finally thc
tennnts posted n guard in front of thc
hall to ward oil interruptions.
The delegates adonted n resolution
providing for n protest meeting of the
tennnts of the city. The Governor and
other state officials will be invited to
snesk to indicate what action, if any.
they will take to relieve the housing
situation. Thc hundred delegates pros
ent were a unit in urging the mnss
merlins.
Mr. nnd Mrs. George W. Glnssmlre,
wboie recent eviction from their home
nt 10 South Redfleld street was the
cause of a riot, were tho guests of thc
ossqriation. Samuel Glassmlre. their
wounded son, attired in a uniform, was
also present.
They returned to their home today.
The delegates, however, strongly con
demned the mob violence In the Glass
mire case, and urged that outbreaks of
a similar nature uc rigorously sup
pressed in the future, as they"gave
tne tennnts association n dibck eye
the very thing the real estate opera
tors desired." '
Jotcph Molony, president of thc
Thlrt.v-fourth "Ward Tenants' Associa
tion, led the movement declaring for Inw
nnd order. He told how any nctlon
ncnlnst sheriff's deputies wns futile, say
ing the deputies wcro poor men working
for $1200 a year, and that they were
merely carrying out unpleasant orders
of superiors when they evicted tenants
G. II. Parr nrcslded.
Mr. Pnrr has been invited by Sheriff
Lamberton to prove his recent charges
that tho two writ servers who evicted
thc Glassmir'cs were intoxicated at thc
time. Mr. Parr is arranging through
counsel to call on the shcrllt tomorrow.
Mrs. Pnrr. wlfo of thc Tenants' Pro
tectlve Association head, said todrfy her
husband had received a letter from Mr.
Lamberton. , The sheriff, she snid, nc
cused Mr. Parr of arranging the dem
onstratlon made against the writ serv
ers when the nged parents of the soldier
were evicted.
A physician's certificate to the effect
that Sirs. Louis Howe. 00 Xdrth -Edec

Polico Work at Paris
SOLDIERS BEATEN, CHARGE
lly tltc Associated Press
Washington, April rt. Charges that
"slrongnrmed, bloodthirsty police com
panies Hwept the streets of Paris, mak
ing wholesale arrests of Amerlcnn sol
diers" were denied today before n House
xnr investigating committee by Hrlga
dler General William W. Harts, for
mer commander nf Amerlcnn troops i
In the Paris district. I
General Harts, who as ordered home i
iiuiii vi.-i iiiiiii., . niirir in' in ,'IIH'I UI nillll
of the American forces, to testify before
tho committee, nlso denied that prison
ers were put through n third degree to
obtuln confessions of crime, or that they
"w'ere beaten, threatened and Inhumanly
trented."
Representative ntnnd, who questioned
the witness, rend reports nf specific ensea
In which officers were said to have as
saulted soldiers and asked whether Gen
eral Harts took action In thoe cases.
deneral Harts snld he always fdhowed"
recommendations of Inspectors,
"That's the trouble." Mr, n'and re
turned, "llnrd-hiilled, Mrong-nrmrd
practices wrte used constantly and no
one was punished, "
"Men with police experience were de
sired for work In cleaning 1'nrls," the
general said. "The Thirtieth marines
were doing police work when I arrived.
They were unsatisfactory and were re.
moved. Later companies were recruited
from wounded men, not fit for ncllvo
duty." .
"The human element wns left out of
ll.eo companies," Mr. Illnnd declared.
"They were a strong-armed, blood
thirsty bunch who wcro ordered to be
hard-boiled."
"I object to Ihe words bloodthirsty
nnd strong-armed," snld General Harts,
Charges Use of Third Degree
Representative Rland charged that
toldicrs "were put through the third
degree," but General Harts said he had
not been Informed of such conditions.
"That's why you arc before this com
mittee," Rlaud replied. "I have al
ways contended you didn't know con
ditions, but you will be Informed."
