Says Hughes Committee
t reseating of the five sus

manded by the sp<cial committee ap
. : ;.- the Ass ?ciati m of the Bar
of the City of New York in a memorial
addressed to the Assembly and made
public yesterday at the office of Charles
E. Hughes. 96 Broadway. Mr. Hughes
is chairman of the committee which
vhe association named to "safeguard
the principles of representative gov?
ernment."
Denied the privilege of appearing
before the Assembly Judiciary Com?
mittee which is trying the Socialists,
Mr. Hughes and his associates resolved
to present their case in the form of a
memorial. This document declares that
the question involved in the suspen?
sion of the Socialists is vital "to the
security of the Republic." The memo?
rial is signed by Mr. Hughes and the
four other members of the committee
Morgan J. O'Brien, Louis Marshal!,
Joseph M. Proskauer and Ogden I.
Mills.
Text of the Memorial
The memorial follows:
"To the Honorable the Speaker and
the Members of the Assembly.
"The undersigned, as a special com?
mittee, appointed pursuant to resolu?
tion adopted by the Association of the
Bar of the City of New York at its an?
nual meeting, held on January 13, 1921 .
respectfully present this memorial:
"The resolution of the Association of
the Bar instructed this committee 'to
appear before the Assembly or its Ju?
diciary Committee and take* such action
as may in their judgment be necessary
to safeguard and protect the principles
of representative government guaran?
teed by the Constitution, which are
involved in the proceedings now pend?
ing.'
"At the first session of the Judiciary
Committee in this proceeding we asked
leave to appear and to be heard in
compliance with our mandate. We
stated that we did not represent the
members under suspension or the So
cialist party, and that we had no sym?
pathy with the aims of that party. 'Wt
-ought to appear solely as the repre?
sentatives of the Association of th?
Bar of the City of New York and ir
the public interest, in order to place
before the Judiciary Committee con?
siderations which we deem to be o?
fundamental importance. We respect?
fully suggested that, in view of th?
gravity of the questions involved anc
the serious consequences which mighl
follow any deflection from sound con?
stitutional practice, the Judiciary Com?
mittee should at once consider *h<
??resent status of this proceeding anc
the immediate measures which are re
quired in the light of the constitu
tiona! rights of those suspended mem
hers and of the constituencies whicl
they have been elected to represent.
Denied Hearing by Judges
"The Judiciary Committee, througl
its chairman, declined to permit us t<
appear or be heard, stating that no on?
could ppear or be heard in argumen
except those who were counsel for th<
Judiciary Committee or for the sus
pended members. We then stated brief!;
the course of action which we believe?
should be taken by the Judiciary Com
mittee, and, being denied any furthe
opportunity to appear or be heard n
the public interest, we submitted ;
written statement of our views and ou
supporting brief.
"We now deem it to be our duty t<
present this memorial, to the end tha
'? may bring before the Assembly thi
vital issue here involved and the ex
treme importance of immediate actioi
on the par: or the Assembly rescindinj
its resolution of suspension and pro
: g for the rearing of charges, i
proper charges are laid, in accordanc

"We believe that the following fact
are undisputed:
"i 1 i That the members under sus
pension were duly elected to the As
sembly.
" 2i That when these members ap
peared with their credentials they wer
tted to take the oath of office an
? ? 'hey severally took such oath an
were admitted 'o the privileges of th
Assembly.
That having taken the oath an
having been admitted to all the privi

Speaker and otherwise acted as mem
hers until their suspension.
Suspended Without Chance to Speak
"(4) That, after having ttaken th

portunity to be heard.

the Constitution, or that they are n
of sound mind, or that they have n
taken the constitutional oath of offic

they have been guilty of any misco
duct while members of this Assemb!
"(6) That by reason of their suspe!
sion these members have been deni<

" 7 i That by reason of the suspe'
sion of these members, there are f:
districts of the state now in effe
without representation in the Assei
bly, that th^re ar*"* no vacancies th
can be filfed by election or otherwk
and that this denial of repr?sentatif
will continue as long as this inqui
lasts, which may be until the end
the legislative session.
Committee Submits Conclusions
"We submit the following propositio
- abundantly supported by reason a

"First?That the power of the A

Soviet Able to
Fight World, !
Martens Says
Continued from paj?e I
his publicity efforts, very extensive, as
outlined in his testimony, were de?
voted to explaining the soviet system i
to the end that Americans would allow
its recognition as the established gov?
ernment in Russia, and were not to1
extend it in the United States.
When the committee demanded cop?
ies of the actual governmental instruc?
tions to the effect former Senator
Hardwick, of Georgia, attorney for the '
soviet bureau, argued that to give them
might disclose the "code" in which
the Soviet Foreign office corresponded
with Martens, which should be entitled
to immunity, but promised notwith?
standing to furnish them in the origi?
nal or in sworn translations. An ad?
journment was taken until Thursday. !
partly* to let Martens examine his rec?
ords for that purpose.
Martens also told the Committee that
the Soviet government had $450,000,- |
000 or $500,000.000 in gold to spend
in foreign trad'', stating briefly that
there was "little or no gold in the
hands of private banks or individuals."
And that about 1,000 American con?
cerns were ready to sell it goods
Much of Martens's testimony took
the form of a written statement,
though he was interrupted constantly
in its reading by the sharply put ques?
tions of his Senatorial auditors. Be?
sides entering his denial of charges
that he had participated in financing
revolutionary activities in the United
States, the witness said he was spend
. ing $2,500 a week on the maintenance
i of an organization of some thirty-five
.employees. He gave the committee
1 names and addresses of all of them, in?
cluding American clerks and stenogra
; phers and press agents.
The money expended came from
: Russia, he testified, in the form of
paper currency of Finland, Sweden and
other neighboring states. Besides pub?
lishing a weekly magazine "Soviet
Russia," the Soviet bureau, he said.
maintained an educational department,
designed to help Russians get techni?
cal education in the United States
which would be useful to the Soviet
government when these persons re
; turned and went into industry, a
. technical department, to employ ex?
perts to assemble data for use in the
state-operated industries, a legal de?
partment, to advise him and other
Russians, and a medical department,
also designed to get Russia competent
practitioners and surgeons.
Senator Borah inquired as to the
"Soviet Russie." publication's mail
status, and when Martens replied that
Postmaster General Burleson had never
objected to its circulation the Senator
remarked grimly, amid laughter in
? tho hearing room, that "it must be all
right." j
Martens incidentally told of his en?
deavors to obtain tit?e to property of
Russian consular agents and diplomatic
representatives already in the country,
but said he had not pressed the matter
in the courts because the State De-?
partnieni. had not recognized him.
Chairman Moses warned the wit?
ness at the conclusion of the session
that he was still to regard himself as
in custody until the inquiry was re?
sumed again.

Philadelphia Slackers
From Mother Is Sent to
Spain
Alice M. Palos, masseuse and woman
of mystery, never again will knead
aching muscles of Philadelphia's t. b. m.
'Madame" has gone away at Uncle
Sam's solicitation. She was deported
to Spain, where, she sobbed, she was
horn.
Federal agents said "Madame" had
never been closer to Spain than seeing
pictures of bull-fightors in the movies,
but they were forced to snip her to the
land of toreadors because she claimed
it as her birthplace.
'?Madame." they said, was not even
Spanish descent, but was a mulattc
from the South.
One Romeo Mulcted
Tired business men, numbered among
"Madame's" patrons at diff?rent mas?
sage parlors she conducted here, ma>
lament her departure. But one Phila
delphian is sighing with relief becaus?
she has faded from a fertile field.
"Madame," prior to her deportation
was the target of an intensive inquir;
by Federal authorities. It was sus
pected she had acted as a "go-between'
for Mrs. Emma C. Bergdoll and he
two draft-dodging sons.
It was reported she carried $28,000 t
the Bergdoll slackers while they wer
in South America. Grover C. Bergdol
captured recently, after a two year:
search, denied he was in hiding i
South America. Express compay re
ceipts for $28,000, discovered in a saf
deposit box ".Madame" rented in thi
city, convinced investigators that th
masseuse actually carried money fror
Mrs. Bergdoll to her sons.
Took '"Concert Tour"
Lending color to reports current ii
the summer of 191S that the Bergdol!
were in one of the South American re
publics. "Madame" Palos went on
mysterious visit to Buenos Ayre;
Friends announced she was on a con
cert tour.
This explanation didn't ring true, be
cause as a singer she was a good mas
seuse. She had a voice that matche
her .'100-pound physique.
Returning on a steamer which saile
from Colon, Panama. "'Madame" was de

Their activity was the outcome of th
investigation by army intelligenc

The official record at Ellis Island gav
the reason for her deportation as he
being "a person liable to become a put
