Move to Split
Science Church
Charged iu Suit
Depc>!*etl Direetor Alleges
Trustees of the Christian
Science Publishing Body
Have Been "Disloyal"
Separate Answer Filed
John V. Dittemore Asserts
"Monitor" Was Conduct
ed on Extravapant Lines
BOSTON', April 9.?Charges of dis- ;
loyalty to the church and miamanage
ment on thc part of thc trustees of
tha Christian Science Publishing So?
ciety nre made in a separate answer
tilcd in the Supreme Court to-day by
John V. Dittemore, one of thc defend
r.nts to the suit brought by the trus- j
tees last month to restrain the di- |
rectors of the First Church of Christ,
Scientist, from interforing with their
management of the society. Mr. Dit?
temore particularly attacks the meth?
ods used in tho publication of "Tho
Christian Science Monitor," a daily
j-.ewspaper.
The other members of the board of
directors dismissed Mr. Dittemore on
March 17, last, eight days before the
liling of the suit, and appointed Mrs.
Annie M. Knott in his placo. Both he
and Mrs. Knott were made defendants
in this suit, the trustees nsserting in
their bill of complaint that they were
?onable to determine which was a "duly
pppointcd" direetor. Mrs. Knott joined
in the answer filed by'* the other di?
rectors on April 4. %
Pleadings Completed
Mr. Dittcmore's answer completes
the pleadings. It is expected the case
will be sent to a master within a few
\vecks for the hearing of evidence.
The answer says the manual or by- !
faws of the Christian Science Church, i
bs administered by the board of di
frectors, constitutea the supreme author- '
ity over all departments of Christian '
{Science activities, including the pub- :
lishing society.
It asserts the alleged disloyal atti?
tude of the trustees has been known '
for a long time by the directors, and i
that a majority of the directors has !
heen influenced and inrimidated by the |
trustees in combination with Frederick ;
Dixon, editor or* "The Christian Science
Monitor." It alleges that Mr. Dittemore
was removed as a direetor because of
hia opposition to the schemea of the
trustees by vote of a majority of the
board of directors, consisting "of Adam
H. Dickey, Edward A. Merritt and Will
Itm R. Eathvon.
lntimidation Alleged
- Thc answer charges tho trustees,
Ec-rber: W. Eustace, David B. Ogden j
and Lamont Rowlands, with "disloy?
alty, misconduct, misnianagement and I
mefficiency." It says Mr. Eustace is
the dominating member of tbe board I
cf trustees, anrl with Mr. Dixon has so '
intirnidated the majority of the board
:tora as to subvert rn^ny of the j
Church bylawa. The trustees, the an?
swer continues, have sought to with- |
draw the publishint? society from the
legitimate control of the board of di?
rectors, ?t'hus introducing a division in
the Christian Science movement.
Charges are made in the pnswer that
the circulation of "Tho Monitor" has
heen misrepresented and that its man
Sgement has been extravagant, espe
CiaJ'y in its foreign service.
Admisaion is made there has been
Bn increase in the income of the pub
lishing society from tho sale of cer?
tain periodicals.
Big Increase in Prices
It is asserted this increase was due :
to increased prices, in some inatance*
fcO per cent and in other instances 100
per cent, and that this burden had !
bfen borne by tho aubscribers, almost
?11 of whom are members of the First :
Church of Christ, Scientist.
Regarding the action of the directors
ln voting to remove Mr. Rowlands
rrom tho Board of Trustees, the answe*
says Mr. Dittemoro's former co-direct
ors frequently had told Mr. Dittemore i
Mr. Rowlands was little known and j
r-ad only a small following among i
?thnstian Sclentists, and that if he j
alone were removed or threatened with '?
r-moval, the other trustees would j
make no objection and tho growing un

New York Military
Hospitals F a c i n g
Shortage of Nurses
Many Girls Ask Immediate
Discharge, Although Work
Is Increased by Return of
Hundreds of Wounded
The military hospitals of New York
face a difficult situation. Although they
aro busier now than at any time in
their history, due to the return of sol?
diers, many of the nurses aro seeking
discharges. Those who signed up after
the United States came into tho war
feel that they have done what they set
out to do and want to get home.
Some of them are going to be mar?
ried, others have home ties, while a
few have attractive positions in civil
life waiting for them.
Their reasons for seeking discharges
nre valid in virtually every instance,
and hospital authorities are inclined
to let as many as possible go, pro?
vlded they can be replaced.
Three thousand paticnts are being
handled daily at thc Greenhut Hos?
pital. The ordinary statT is scarcely
large enough to keep up with the
demands made upon it, yet a consider
ablu percentage of the nurses have ap
plied for discharge.
"Our first consideration, of course,
i,s the care of the returning men," said
Major Monaghan, of Greenhut Hos?
pital, to The Tribune. "We want to
be as fair as we can to the nurses, but
tlie men who have been overseas must
have the best care, no matter what the
cost. We are losing one or two nurses
every day and will likely go on doing
this just as fast a3 wo can replace
them."
"We have had no trouble here and
I don't think that the nurses are at
all discontented," declared the ad?
jutant of the Grand Central Palace
Hospital. "Of course we havo had a
fair number of appl'cations for dis?
charge nnd have lost about fiftecn of
our r.urses in all."

Union Teachers
Defy Ettinger
In Investigation
Dr. Henry R. Linville and
Three Others Refuse to
Answer Questions as to
Attack on School Board
Bolshevism Is an Issue
IiiBtructors Plan to Ask
Mayor for Suspension of
Offieials and an Inquiry
Tho Board of Education's first move
in its inquiry into the nctiona and opin
ions of the Teachers' Union devcloped
a livoly sceno yesterday in tho /jflice of
Dr. William L. Ettinger, superintendent
of schools.
Empowered by the board to investi
gatc alleged radical utterances by mcm
I bers of tho union, Dr. Ettinger sum
, moned four of them. He wanted to
i lcarn, ho said, whether they are op?
posed to the constituted authority of
j tho educational system and whether
; their expressed views outside the clnsn
[ room aro at variance with Amcrican
i ideals.
Dr. Henry R. Linville, head of the
i union, paid the teachers refused to an
! swer questions not relatcd to clasa
room work. A few of them, he said,
told the superintendent of schools they
, would give no information about their
personal opinions or activities, because
I they mistrusted thc proceedinga and
; wero without advice of counsel. The
| teachers wero told, he added, they had
; no right to counsel.
Soon after noon Dr. Henry R. Lin?
ville, president of the union; Abraham
I LcfkowiU, .Max Rosenhaus, secretary
of the organization, and Joseph Jab
j lonower were conducted by Dr. John
L. Tildsley, associatc superintendent
of schools, to Dr. Ettinger's office.
"Bolshevism" Heard Frequently
They were questioned singly, accord
. ing to members of the union, William
E. C. Mayer, corporation counsel, cOn
] ducting most ( f the examination. They
were held for more than four hours.
i their voicea often rising to a high
j pitch, ancl words like "radicaliam,"
"authority'' and "Bolshevism" fre?
quently were heard outside thc room.
According to Dr. Linville, Lefkowitz
was asked about a report he had made
public concerning a meeting nt Public
School '11, Manhattan, on March '2'J, in
which he is charged with having made
disparaging referencea to the Board of
Education. A pamphlet, distributed at
this meeting. cntitled "Terrorizing
; Our Public Schools," in which the ed
1 ucational system also is attacked, was
the subject of many questioiis, said
Lefkowitz.
Dr. Linville said he, Rosenhaus and
Jablonower refused to answer ques?
tions concerning the meeting and pam?
phlet other than that they were pres?
ent and that the pamphlet. had been
published by the union.
Just Treatment Promised
At the conclusion of the tirst ses?
sion of the inquiry Dr. Ettinger said
the investigation had just begun and
that if thc facts show the teachers
guilty of conduct prejudicial to good
order, effieiency or discipline in tho
public school service, they will be
dismissed.
"In all fairnesB to these teachers,"
he acid, "I must say that some of the
best in the systcin belong to the
union. Wo will treat them juatly."
Dr. Linville said members of tho
union are now discussing a plan of
calling on thc Mayor to suspend the
Board of Education, and to ask the ap
pointment of a receiver for tho depart?
ment. A commission, he said, should
bc appointcd to investigate the entire
system.

ress. Tho floors are being done over

siderablo interest shown by men in tbe

ciation. A plan of associatc member

ber will bo able to participate in the
club priVlcges, has been arranged.
Ihoso interested may apply direct to
Charles A. Stewart, general manager of
tho Automobilo Dealers' Association,
200 West Pifty-fifth Street, i'or further
information.
Major Ilarry L. Stratton, president of

ters for Dodge Bros., was demobilized

turning to his duties in tho automobilo
business Major Stratton is taking a
rest, to which his two years overseas
and his wounds in action entitlu him.
He has sailed for Bermuda, whero he
will remain until he has fully recovered

Oscar Hammerstein
Again to Produce Opera
Appears in Court to Prevent
Sale of Stock; Is Waiting
Until Contract Expires
Oscar Hammerstein yesterday re
I newcd his promise that after February
;next, when his contract with the Metro?
politan Opera Company expires, he
would again become an impresario.
Mr. Hammerstein, restored to health
j and quite in his old time form, ap
peared in the Supreme Court for the
first time in maw months. He was
; there to ask an irt|unction to restrain
; the Equitnblo Trust Company from
selling ;:,998 shares of Hammerstein
Amusement Company stock. Mr. Ham?
merstein obtained from Justice Mul?
lan what he came for. The in
junction will remain in effect pend?
ing the outcome of a suit by Mr.
Hammerstein to cancel an agreement
with his late wife, Mrs. Malvina Ham?
merstein, when she was suing him for
a divorce to pay her $200 a week for
life and after her death to pay $100 a
week to each of her two daughters.
? Tho Equitable Trust Company
planned to sell tho stock unless the
former opera manager paid a certain
sum in nrronrs. .Mr. Hammerstein
seeks to cancel the agreement, con
tonding that it was mado without con?
sideration nnd on the ground that his
daughters are not in need of his SUTJ
port.
"Things will be different," said Mr.
Hammerstein, "after I resumo giving
opera, as soon as my agreement with
the .Metropolitan expires next Febru?
ary. Of course, 1 xhall give opera
then nnd mako money."
War Board Fixes 48-IIour
Week for N. Y. Silk Mills
J J 0,000 Workers in 186 Plants
in Metropolitan District
Affected by Order
WASHIXGTON, April 9.-Thc War
' Labor Board decided unanimously to
' day for the adoption of a forty-eight
, hour week for the silk mills in the New
York City district. Nearly 110,000
workers in 486 mills are affected.
The decision was based on a motion
made by Joint Chairman Taft. Both
sides in the controversy, which grew
out of a strike two months ago in silk
mills at Paterson, N. J., presented their
cases at a hearing yesterday.
Representatives of the employes
asked for .establisbment of a forty
: four hour week. The silk manufact
; urers' committee opposed the forty
: four hour week on thc ground that it
would ffive undue advantage to their
competitors in the industry. The mills
have been working fifty-two nnd fifty
four hours.
While the decision of the board ap?
plies only lo the forty-six mills di
? rectly involved, representatives of the
industry have said that the standard
agreed upon would be adopted gener?
ally by all silk wills in tlie United
States.
Tv ire Men's Chief Coming
Konenkamp Expected Here To
day; Srike Call Likely
S. J. Konenkamp, president of the
Commercial Telegraphers' Union,
which is taking a nation-wide vote on
the question of calling a strike, will i
arrive here to-day from Boston.
Pcrcy Thomas, of the telegraphers'
union, would not say whether Mr. Ko- !
nenkamp's presence in this city was j
connected with the strike vote which \
is now going on. Asked whether he ex- |
pected thnt the vote, which is to be '
counted in Chicago on April 22, would j
authorize a strike, Mr. Thomas replied: !
"A strike vote which is asked for by j
the international president of a union
is generany successful."

Commerce Board
Soimds Slogan for
New Victory Loan
Business Men Are Urged to
Contribute Time, Effort
and Money to Help U. S.
Pay Debts the War Left
Business and patriotism combine to
urge Americans to buy Liberty bonds
in the next campaign, according to a
resolution adopted by the Chamber of
Commerce pf the State of New York.
The United States government will
.*\??n, be seeking subscriptions to a
i'ltth Liberty Loan, which will be
known as tho Victory Liberty Loan,"
the text of the measure. which was an?
nounced yesterday, says. "The welfare
of the country demands that this loan
tho same as the others, bo made a suc?
cess. The government requires vast
funds to pay bills already incurrcd and
to liquidate many thousands of con?
tracts, nl! creatod in tho military op
erations which have now been so suc
cossfully conc'utlcd.
"In order that business may return
to a normal basis, il. is necess'nry that
tho government be first properly
financed. There is therefore a businesa
reason, as well us a patriotic duty, that
this loan bo supported by every Amer?
ican, as was the caso when our men
wero laying down their lives in the war
against autocracy.
"Tho executive committee of tho
chamber therefore offers the follow?
ing resolution:
"Rosolvcd, That tho Chamber of
Commerce of tho State of New York
recommenda that its members assist
the Victory Liberty Loan, not onlv by
subscribing to the limit of their ability
but also by the devotton of their time
and efforts, as they have in the past,
to making this loan an overwhelming
success."

Unusually Intercslinjj Composi
ions 8un<r by lhe Schola
Cantorum
By H. E. Krehbiel
Thc Schola Cantorum gave .ts last
i concert for this season at Carnegie
| Hall last night. Mr. Schindler, the cen
! ductor of the society. has frequent:*
tried to arrange a more original pro?
gramme of pieces. but has never suc?
ceeded in putting together a more dig
nified and interesting one or one ao
appropriate to the season and calcu
lated to hold thc attention of an audi?
encc of refined taste. It began with
two light-hearted secular moteta by Or?
lando di Lasso ("Mon cceur se rccom
mando a vous" and "Quand mon mari
vient de dehors"), and after three
merry bergerettes by old French and
Flemish composers (among them the
dainty "Aime moi bergere," by Lefeb
vre. one of tbe four-arid-twenty flddlers
of Louis XIII) it reacheil its nrtistic
climax in four Lenten moteta by two
masters of the Spanish school. Morales,
who wns a predeceasor of Paleatrina,
and Victoria, who was tho contempo
rnry and dovoterl disciple of that
"prince of music."
There followed aettings by Debussy
of three pocms written by Charles
d Orleans while that" royal poet was
held as a hostage In England, and in
conclusion cpe three cxamples of
modern liturgical music of the Eastern
Church, one by Gretchaminoff and two,
of reeent date, by Rachmaninoff. Com
paratively aimple and ingratiatingly
euphonious were these Russian piecea
though characteriatic of the style of
which local muaic-lovers knew little
until it was brought into the concert
room by the choir of the Russian
Cathedral of St. Nicholaa. They made
an easy appeal to the ear and fancy of
the audiencc ancl the composer, who
sat in a box during the concert, was
made again to appreciate how genuine
a hold be has won upon the respect
and admiration of thc serioualy minded
element among Xew York's music
lovers. The piecea were sung *in their
original tongue, which proceeding had
one advantage at least?it permitted
the hearers to, enjoy the music as such
without putting upon their minds the
c.log of a pros^ie nnd awkwardly mov?
ing translation. ln one of them as
in the second of tho Debussy pieces
Miss Merle Alcock, contralto, sang the'
solos, and, ang them with decoroua
taste and intelligence.
The Rrench chansons. which are ex
quisite specimens of Debussy's har
monic manner put into tho service of a
capella style, were not new. They had
been ht ard before at concert"! 6f the!
Schola Cantorum when it was called'
the McDowell chorus, and bv the Musi?
cal Art Society under Dr. Frank Dam
rosch; but the Rachmaninoff pieces
were new and so were the motets by
Morales which were tho most notable
things of tne evening. They were a
settingof a portion of the.Lementationa
ol Jeremiah, "0 vos omnes" (a resp?n
soi-ium in tho matin service on Easter
I'A'o) nnd a penitential anthem, "Elmen
clemus in melius," for two choruses The

DIAMONDS OF SUPREME QUALITY

FIFTH'AVENUE at FORTT-SIXTH
former is a lofty example of the se
raphic Btyle of the Palestrina period,
one which measures itself with the best
examples of that master. The latter,
though less marked by serene beauty,
is more Btriking because of the com
poser's use of what may be called a
dramatic device. Into the midst of
penitential reflection and prayer, a
chorus of tenors in unison interjects' an
adrnonition to humility, of which Long
fellow's "Dust thou art to dust re
turnest" is a poetic paraphrase. The
melody is persistent and strident and
cuts into the polyphonic mass liko the
voice of divine ndmiration. The effcct
is thrilllng, and we canont recall its
fellow in niediirval ecclesiastical music.
The music which Mr. Sehindler of?
fered hiH nudienco was of ro high a
type that we have no disposition to be
critical of the performanco. lt is al?
ways a question if music of this char?
acter should be sung by n large choir
of ningors chiefly amateurs, for its de?
mands upon purity of intonation and
juatnesB of expression are many. It is
also a question if the effect of Russian
Church music can be ntrnined by a
choir of mixed voices. But a beautiful
spirit pervaded the concert, and there
was much to be grateful for.
Meyerbeer's "Le Prophete" was re
peated last night at the Metropolitan
with tho usual Caruso audiencc The
k're.at tenor is not an ideal Jean, but
his voice makes amonds for his his
tnonic deficiencies. Mme. Florence
ha.ston sang Bertha for the first time
in New York. Unfortunately she was
not in her best voice and what is most
unusual with her she had frequent
quarrcls with the pitch. Mme. Matzcn?
auer was the Fides, Leon Rothier the
Oberthal and Rafael Diaz, Oarl
bchlegel and Jose Mardones the three
Anabaptists.
Once more the exquitite Rosina
Oalli came near to carrying off the
nonors ol the performance even from
Mr. Garuso. Mme. Gaili's dancing is
as nchly musical as even the golden
tonc.s of the tcnor of tenors. G V
