Jury Finds Simone Cuilty in Slaying Bartholomew Simone, 26, of 364 Leonard was convicted early today by a Jury in Kings County Court of first degree manslaughter in connection with the shooting of Joseph Pecora, 35, of 538 Union in the latter's candy store at 271 Leonard last Nov.

16. The verdict was delivered to Judge Fitzgerald shortly before 1:30 a.m., after the Jurors had deliberated nearly eight hours. The Jurist remanded the defendant, who faces 10 to 20 years in Sing Sing, to Raymond St. Jail without setting a date for sentence. Simone, testifying yesterday, claimed that Pecora was shot by four holdup men.

Witnesses for the prosecution, however, testified that they saw Simone fire several shots into the celling of the store during a card game and then turn the gun on Pecora when the storekeeper objected to his behavior. i.

Dr.

Theodore Rosenthal, director of the Health Department's Bureau of Social Hygiene, pointed out today that licenses will not be issued after July 1 unless the applicants have taken not only the Wasserman test for syphilis but also a complete physical examination. A person may be rejected, however, only on the ground that he is a victim of that disease. Other Bars to Marriage Dr. Rosenthal added that a number of marriages may be prevented as a result of knowledge that applicants suffer from other objectionable diseases. Asked what the private physician would charge for Wasserman tests.

Dr. Rosenthal said: "That all depends on where he is. If he is on Park Ave. he will prob ably charge $25; but If he is in an ordinary residential neighborhood he may charge only $2." Dr. George F.

Hogan, in charge of the Bureau of Social Hygiene in Brooklyn, said that if private clinics for Wasserman tests are opened they will require special permits from the Department of Health.

Once Again Gay, Young Suede Fleece Rayon Urges World Peace In international relations theie must be preserved a degree of Independence and entangling foreign alliances must be avoided.

Bishop Thomas E. Molloy of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn said last night in considering vital social and economic problems of the moment that jre seriously interfering with the peace, order and happiness of the country. At the same time, the Bishop recommended cultivation, to a degree, of international contact and cooperation that would serve to bring about reduction in armaments, prevention of war and the preservation of peace. Addressing about 4,000 men from parishes in Kings County, who were invited as his guests to the eighth annual dinner of the Bishop's Lay Committee for Charity at the Columbus Club, 1 Prospect Park West, Bishop Molloy renewed his appeal for support of the useful and meritorious program of Catholic Charities. The dinner was the fourth and final response meeting in the Charities' 1938 fund appeal.

At the close of the dinner, Mons. J. Jerome Reddy, diocesan director of Catholic Charities, announced $61,500 hi pledges and subscriptions had been raised. This amount was said to be $9,000 more than the sum pledged at the 1937 dinner at the club. Cites Urgent Need of Fund Fulfillment of the diocesan charities program is more urgently needed than ever before because of the present severe social and economic distress.

Bishop Molloy said. As patriotic citizens, Catholics must be disposed to meet the social problems of poverty, crime, disease and social instability by ministering to the needs of the poor and unfortunate and bringing relief to the suffering in our midst, the Bishop pointed out. He reiterated his views that a more reasonable balance must be established between agriculture and industry, that labor must be permitted to become more articulate, but with the indispensable prerequisite that labor be mindful of its duties and respect the interests and rights of others. Government, the Bishop said, must not go so far as to choke private initiative and investment and jeopardize private interests but ratlrr prevent ruthless competition and develop sound, wholesome economic power. Pointing out that in a land most generously endowed by Providence, with enormous purchasing power, the highest wage scale and shortest hour system of any country in the world, there is being experienced the severest economic depression the world has ever known, the Bishop asked, "What are we doing about it?" Discusses Pump-rriming Bishop Molloy then pointed to the Federal Government's vast expenditures in the past five years, to the huge deficit and the accumulated huge interest burden.

He said there is every evidence that pump-priming Is going to develop into a permanent burden. The effort to substitute public spending for private spending has not been exactly successful, the Bishop added. Critics of the Government policies find that the Government has tried to supersede the judgment of private interests in matters of busir ness, the Bishop said. Bishop Molloy then warned of the dangers of totalitarianism. The Bishop considered the Government's relief program and the criticisms made of it and said it is right to be interested not because of petty partisanship but due to the necessity of meeting the suffering among millions and keeping up the morale of the people.
