GOV. ROOSEVELT GIVES HIS COMMENT Says Public Officers Must Account For Private Incomes. EXECUTIVE CHAMBER, ALBANY, N. Aug. 15-AP)--Governor Roosevelt, commenting during an argument with John J.

Curtin, counsel for Mayor James Walker, at today's hearing of ouster charges against the mayor declared public officials must be able to account for their private financial transactions. Several of the allegations upon which Walker's removal was demanded are based on the New York City's executive's private affairs. Preliminary to delving into the record of Russell T. Sherwood's alleged financial relations with the mayor, Curtin vehemently denounced an inquiry into contentions that Sherwood handled $1,000,000 for Mr. Walker.

Sherwood, an accountant, is missing. The Hofstadter legislative committee was unable to bring him before that to testify. When Cm-tin moved that Sherwood charges be dismissed because they were based on assumed private transactions, the governor cut in to ask the attorney if he had read Mr. Roosevelt's decision in the removal of Sheriff Thomas M. Parley of Manhattan.

The governor at that time--last February--held the public was en- itled to know the source of an official's income.

Walker The 300 shares of Interstate Trust Company stock he bought in addition to an allotment lor himself, later appeared as collateral for a loan to J.

Allan Smith, which Samuel Seabury, Hofstadter committee investigator, claims was used to finance a campaign to obtain a bus franchise for the Equitable Coach Company. Seabury contends Walker profited from the granting of the franchise. Roosevelt read a portion of Her- nck's testimony at the committee session that there was no question in his mind that $39 000 to pay for the stock came from the mayor. "I think that's wrong," Herrick replied. "The money came I thought from Mr.

Stanton." Herrick twice answered that he assumed" Stanton was acting for the mayor. The governor read from the record of a private hearing of Herrick, which he was quoted as saying the Mayor had told him he had put up his Interstate stock for collateral." At the Hofstadter public hearing, Herrick said he was not sure the mayor had made such a statement. He said again today he was uncertain Mrs Walker, recovering from an operation, was overcome while attending mass with the mayor short- iy before noon. She was rushed back to her hotel and physicians hurriedly called. They said the excitement and the crowds at the church were too much for her.

She was better after a short rest. Mayor Walker disclaimed ownership of the stock an3 suggested to Governor Roosevelt last week that Stanton be called as a witness to corroborate his claim. John J.

"We are here as guests of Fatlicr Cox and his "When Eomc arrive this afternoon or tomorrow we'll hold a conference and decide what to do." Harvey said the objections of the health authorities seemed to him to be well grounded, but as a mere guest he could do nothing about the desired preparations.

He gave a statement declaring "civilization is in the balance" as result of the lending of money at usurious interest. St. Louis police were ordered on 12-hour duty, beginning tonight and continuing until the convention is over.
