U. S. Passport Fraud for
l se of German Agents
20 Arrests Are Predicted
Capt. Boehm, von Papen
Aid, Held in England, Is
Outre of Gigantic Plot
Federal authorities have started a
nation-wide round-up of Teutonic plot?
ters and their American aids who di?
rected a gigantic passport fraud system
which enabled agents of the German
?Foreign Office to travel in Allied coun?
tries under the protection of the United
t-tates.
Two men were apprehended here yes?
terday and held in high bail. The ar?
rests revealed tho fact that a man and
*. woman have been held on Ellis Island
for several months in connection with
the scheme. Assistant 1 nited States
Attorney George M. Curtis, who has
charge of the prosecutions, announced
that arrests are pending fn Oregon and
:i number of Southern states. He esti?
mated that at least twenty persons in
nil parts of tho country will he taken
in custody on charges of aiding the
conspiracy,
Karl T. Thomas, of 371 Wadsworth
Avenue, nnd Max Wyner, of 1070
Mapea Avenue, were arrested by agents
i'f tho Department of Justice yestorday
on bench warrants, The Federal Grand
Jury, in a sealed indictment handed up
this week, charged them with aiding in
obtaining fraudulent passports for Cap?
tain Hans Boehm, <>!' the Gorman Gen?
eral Staff. They were hold in $25,000
Vail each by United Slates Commission?
er Hitchcock.
May Try Boehm Here
Captain Boehm was taken otT the
Dutch steamer Zelandia at Falmouth,
England, by Scotland Yard men in Jan
vary of 1917. He carried an American
Va?--port issued to ?elks Lo Roy
Thrasher, of Quitman, Brooks County,
?Ja. British Admiralty operatives had
Jollowed him in Spain and Holland
and identified him as Captain Boehm.
Ho admitted his identity, and was in?
terned in England. It was intimated
yesterday that he will be brought to
this country for trial.
Mr. Curtis explained yesterday that
the government has conclusive evi?
dence that Boehm was aided by Ameri?
can citizens of German birth in his
operations in America. He said that
Boehm first came to the United States
in 100'".. and settled in Portland. Ore
yon. There he was a manager for a
number of German clubs, and directed
the Teutonic propaganda in the North?
west.
Got ???.?0,000 From Von l'apen
In December, 1914, Boehm came to
New York with a letter of introduction
to Karl Thomas, who, says Mr. Curtis,
was then employed on William Ran?
dolph Hearst's "Deutsches Journal."
i.a'?'r. according to Mr. Curtis. Thomas
introduced Boehm, who was using the
alias K. Blake, to Mrs. Thrasher. For
some time Boehm boarded with Mrs.
Thrasher. He wrote a letter to the
authorities at Quitman, and secured a
passport in her husband's name.
The passport, which was indorsed by
Thomas and Wyner, was made out for
r ? g and, Holland and Scandinavia. Mr.
i unis stated, however, that the gov?
ernment is ready to prove that Boehm
marie three trips to Berlin alter the
? of the war to get instructions

The Federal prosecutor stated that

MORRIS BOLTIN, of 1042 Tintori
Avenue, The Bronx, was denied
citizenship yesterday because one of
hi.s witnesses, Simon O. Pollack, a
lawyer, of 876 Hunts Point Avenue,
was said to have expressed sympathy
with bolshevism.
Mr. Pollack was in court when can?
didates for citizenship appeared before
Justice Tierney. He denied thnt he
was entirely in favor of bolshevism,
and answered with an emphatic "No"
when Justice Tierney asked him if he
thought the Trotzky-Lenine theories
should be applied in America. But
the court cut short his explanations,
and curtly informed Boltin that he
would have to apply again for citizen?
ship.
Boltin came from Russia seven
years ago and Pollack from Moscow
twenty-live years ago.
The court :ilso denied citizenship
to a native German with the sur?
name Sternberg. The examiner called
him to the bar, using his given name
Wilhelm.
"That's enough," interrupted the jus?
tice, "lie might make n good citizen,
but not with that name." And Stern
berg's application was deferred until
he can apply to proper authority to
change his name.
?nOLONKL WILLIAM HAYWARD,
" * former commander of the "Black
Watch," replied yesterday to the sug?
gestion that lie might be again placed
in tlie Public Service Commission, say?
ing he had mi political ambitions and
preferred to be a '"plain practising
lawyer." At a luncheon at the Union
League Club he said:
"Early in tho campaign in Franco
the slogan if the Old Fifteenth was
G. A. B. Cet a Hoche. Now that 1
am buck in Now York, in civilian
clothes, 1 have changed that slogan
to <i. A. ('..got a client."

but
They must not inquire tin*, closely
AS lo where the helmets came from.
"A factory lius boon started in
Lyons, France," reports Corporal
laines Turner, ?if Warwick, N. Y., "and
it makes 'German1 helmets and iron
crosses for American souliers."
Then there are the 80,000 German

OARRY SKINNER, one of the young?
est war veterans, came home yes?

drab, wearing a sergeant's chevrons.
He is sixteen. His parents were amone:
the Americans who died on the Lusi
tania, but he vas rescue?! and sein
to his uncle's home in Scotland.
A regiment of friendly Highlanders
smuggled him to France as a mascot
and lie was gassed ai Ypres. After
six weeks in a hospital he went raid?
ing and was captured. He escaped
from Coblenz in a German uniform and
made his way to the front line, -where
he fell a willing prisoner to Com?
pany G ?it the I02d U. S. Infantry.
The regiment adopted him forthwith,
gave him a uniform and bugle and
dubbed him "sergeant.'' He was with
the Americans at Ch?teau Thierry, St.
Mihiel, Soissons, Verdun and in the
Argonne Forest.
MISS ETHEL WOODWARD, a Red
Cross canteen worker, writing to
her brother, B. D. Woodward, of the
University Club, tells of an attempt
by German locomotive engineers to
buy canteen food. They had brought
trains to surrender to the Allies.
"It was my duty to refuse them,"
she wrote. "I told them they could
in.; expect to sit down and eat at the
same table with, the French, or ex?
pect the French to tolerate, them un?
der the same roof.
"When one remembers Hie pride
that was once Germany's it seems re?
markable to see the present humility
of the Boche."

the obliging conduct of the weather
yesterday will make it possible for
prophets to make their forecasts ac?
cording to the hour at which they
arose.
Tho early-rising sages can assert,
with confidence, that March will merge
mildly into spring. For when they
got up the rain was descending in
torrents, which a, whooping wind
whipped here and there in solid sheets.
Lie-abed seers can declare with equal
positiveness, and with a convincing
air of gloom, that winter is yet to
come and March will jro howling out
on the heels of a blizzard. For when
they arose the sun was radiant in an
April sky and made a brilliant prom?
ise of trailing arbutus, adders' tongues
and liverwort.
