According to a certificate filed with the City Clerk, Kreut zer not only is empowered to determine the relationship be tween Simonetti and Costello but also to ascertain his fitness to hold public office. Find Man Slashed To Death on Boat Continued From Page 1 last night, where it had loaded cargo. Hoboken police, who joined the investigation, failed to connect the dead man with waterfront violence which had re cently broken out along the Jersey docks.

A bale hook, traditionaldock- er weapon, was founch near the body. The washroom was splattered with blood from a gash in the dead man's face. The ship was allowed to con tinue its trip after the dun-geree-clad body was removed to New York where an autopsy will be performed. None of the crew was under suspicion, police said. "It's an open case," Detective Capt.

Fred Lussen said. "None of the crew members recognized the man." Polish Tars Revolt, Flee From Reds Continued From Page 1 manded by Lt. Ake Skoglund, was sent to investigate. Skoglund sighted a lifeboat on his way to the Polish vessel. In it he found six of the Red mine sweeper's crew.

An eight-man sheriff posse spotted Millard Carmean, 56, on a pinnacle overhanging a 200 foot chasm. They had been hunting him since he told rela tives he was planning suicide After an exchange of shots Sheriff Chester Petty called for the posse to retreat. "We're going to leave him there to think it oyer," Petty said.

"I'm afraid if we push him, somebody's going, to get hurt Petty said he would lead a smaller group Into the remote mountain area later today in an effort to coax Carmean down. The posse tracked the elderly prospector to his lofty strong hold after a series of notes were found scattered about the home of his brother, Rodney, a house painter. Joseph P.

Guards on Duty They toured the iron fence which surrounds the supposed ly sealed-up building, pointing out gate after gate which, like the one involved in yesterday's accident; hangs by a single rusty hinge waiting to injure another child. The school on Schenk between New- Lots and Livonia Aves. in East New York, is in a congested aieu where there is little space for children to play. The city maintains guards on the premises to warn chil dren away but they are many and so young that warnings weigh lightly.

While the guards shoo them out of one rusty gate, other small fry swarm in at another. "What we want is for the city to tear the thing down," said Mrs. Rose Pincus of 614 Schenck Ave. The neighborhood has appealed to the Police Department, to the City Council and to other agencies with no result. Mrs.

Pincus pointed out a drain pipe pre cariously clinging high on the building and obviously ready Litter-Strewn Yard A deep puddle, loaded with trash, stagnated in a corner of the yard, bricks hung threateningly out of the cornices and shattered glass lay everywhere. "See what's on that wall," said Mrs. Marilyn Fried, also of R14 Schenck pointing to a chalked obscenity. "That will give you an idea of what goes on here at night." rour grown men were re quired to lift the iron gate which yesterday pinned Anita Nicolosi to the broiling pavement.

Progressive Lights To Speed Traffic to Manhattan Bridge Progressive traffic light sys tems to expedite the movement of vehicles will be put in operation on Flushing and Park between Navy St. and Classon the-Department of Traffic announced todav. The two thoroughfares, which carry a total of 42,000 vehicles daily, comprise important traf fic links between the Navy Yard and Manhattan Bridge. Progressive signal systems will extend for a distance of one mile on each of the streets and involve the retiming of signals at 18 intersections. The prescribed speed for both systems will be 25 miles per hour.

A 45-second signal cycle will be used on both streets. Two-way progressive operation will be provided on Park Ave. On Flushing Ave. two-way vehic ular movement will be permitted, but the signals will be set to favor westbound traffic. The irregular spacing of ex isting traffic signals on Flushing Ave.

make it impossible to provide progressive movement in both directions, Acting Commissioner T. T. Miley pointed out. Inasmuch as Flushing Ave. is a feeder route for the Manhattan-bound upper deck roadway of the Manhattan Bridge, he noted, the flow of traffic is predominantly westbound.

Park Ave. carries a daily volume of 29,000 vehicles, including a high percentage o' trucks. told him of the mutiny and said the officers were Oocked up.
