Walsh Contradicts Dewey Statement Special to the Brooklyn Eagle Albany, Dec. 9-Governor-elect Thomas E.

The Governor -elect referred questioners to Chairman Abbot Low Moffat of the Assembly Ways and Means Committee, during a press conference at his office. Mr. Molfatt said a random examination of costs at the State's last previous wartime inauguration showed an outlay of at least $21,000.
