Abe loses 60G suit By ROBERT CARROLL A former city official has won $60,000 in damages against millionaire builder Abraham Hirschfeld on charges he imprisoned her in her office and threatened her in order to force action on his permit request The former official, Dorothy Green, 54, of Freeport, L.I., had filed a $16 million damage suit against Hirschfeld, charging that the builder, his son Elie and two of his employes imprisoned her in her office at 1 Centre St on Sept 16, 1977. At the time Mrs. Green was a bureau chief for the city's Department of Environmental Protection.

A jury in Supreme Court, Mineola, on Friday awarded Green $35,000 in compensatory damages for the imprisonment and for what the jury found was "outrageous conduct" by Hirschfeld. Yesterday Justice Paul Kelly approved a settlement between the parties on punitive damages that reportedly amounted to $25,000. Although attorneys for both parties declined to verify the amount, both said the settlement money, at Green's request, would go to the United Jewish Appeal. Joel Kaplan, attorney for Green, said his client was "satisfied" with the verdict and the settlement and "feels she won a victory." Carney eyes reelection By MICHAEL HANRAHAN Declaring that the Long Isiand Lighting Co. executives and stockholders should not be allowed to foist their bad investments onto the ratepayers, Long Island consumer advocate Richard Kessel yesterday asked the Public Service Commission to reject Lilco's latest rate hike request Kessel revealed that as part of its recent $183 million electric and gas rate increase request Lilco wants $48 million to cover a bad investment in a now defunct nuclear plant being constructed in New Haven, Conn.

Kessel contended that Lilco seeks to cover the investment losses by allocating $9.6 million a year over the next five years to pay off the debt of the company for its share of the failed New Haven project KESSEL CHARGED THAT if the rate increase covering the losses at New Haven is allowed to stand, then Lilco customers can also expect to be charged for the utility's fiasco in invest ting in a bogus uranium mine at Bokum, N.M., and Lilco's rejected proposals for a nuclear plant at Jamesport "It is indeed ironic that Lilco ratepayers should be asked to foot the bill for the company's travesties," he said. "It should be obvious that New Haven was a poor decision on the part of the Lilco management and the costs of the now abandoned project should be borne by the shareholders. Lilco ratepayer should not be made forced investors in the company's failed and mismanaged projects," said Kessel. In defending its rate increase request, the utility explained that the New Haven prospect was merely a development study. JOSEPH SHEEHAN, a Lilco spokesman, balked at Kessel's teminol-ogy of the New Haven proposal as a "mistake." He said the $48 million in incurred expenditures was for mandatory ecological and environomental studies.

He insisted that the New Haven proposal should not be considered as a failed project "When the siting board of the New al issues, has been endorsed by the Republican National Committee and County Executive Peter Fox Cohalan, so he won't have to enter a GOP primary. Recounting the record of his two terms in office, Carney took credit for saving the funding for the Isabelle nuclear research project at the Brookhaven Laboratory this year, and declared that he expects to insure project funding for next year as well. He noted that he has successfully fought in Congress for funding for the pure waters acts on the pine barrens throughout the mid-Suffolk region; successfully campaigned for the Fire Island National Seashore wilderness designation; supported the move for a nuclear arms freeze, and forced the State Department to maintain a uniform policy toward international terrorists by denying a passport to Northern Ireland Protestant extremist Ian Paisley, as well as known IRA sympathizers in the British Parliament By MICHAEL HANRAHAN The only elected Conservative Party member in Congress and one of President Reagan's staunchest supporters, Rep. William Carney of Hauppauge, yesterday announced that he will run for reelection and declared that on Election Day the world will be surprised at Reagan's strength with the American voters! Addressing some 200 supporters and financial backers at the Ol Bailey Restaurant in Hauppauge, Carney said the President's reduction of the inflation rate to less than 6 makes it the lowest in nearly 20 years, but conceded the 9.7 unemployment rate is "tragically high." He attempted to dismiss the bleak unemployment statistic by declaring that, nevertheless, there are people working today than ever before in U.S. history."

Karski said, that in August 1943, he visited the White House with messages for President Roosevelt He said that after conveying the reports, including information about Nazi death camps, Roosevelt did not ask about the death camps but instead asked about the horses in Poland.

"He was concerned about the horses because he said he knew that agriculture in Poland depended upon the use of horses," Karski said Karski said that as he left Roosevelt told him: "We shall win the war. The guilty ones will be punished for their crimes. Justice will be restored. They (the Polish people) have a friend in this house. Your country will emerge more prosperous than ever." months after the Nazi invasion of Poland in September 1939, he was recruited to deliver messages from the Polish underground to the Polish government-in-exile.

And among his first messages was the fact that Jews were being rounded up, placed in ghettos and forced to wear the Star of David. "I had no doubt in my mind that this was a prelude to the extermination of the Jews," Karski said. "In 1940 they placed the Jews in concentration camps to keep control of them, and in 1941 they started with the death camps." In 1942, Karski said, the Jewish underground in Poland asked him to carry messages for them, and he did so on two occasions. They dealt with reports that Jews were being murdered en masse by electrocution, gassing and shooting, he said. "The Jewish leaders told me that two million Jews had already been murdered," Karski said.

"But the The disappearance of 3.5 million Polish Jews during World War II proves the Holocaust existed, a Polish Catholic who served as a courier between the Polish underground and the Polish government-in-exile declared yesterday. "My experience gives the lie to the so-called revisionists who say the Holocaust never happened," Jan Karski told an audience in Garden City. "There were 3.5 million Jews in Poland when I was living there before the war. They weren't there after the war. What happened to them? Did they just evaporate?" Karski made his comments at Adelphi University's third annual "Tribute to the Martyrs of the Holocaust" Prior to the discussion, Karski said that three.
