Jury to Decide If War Veteran Can Retain Job M'Keima, Dropped by Iiluiisharil Examiner, Had Held Post 15 Years A jury will determine whether John J.

McKenna of 53 Chester Ave. will regain under the new administration the job he had held since 1919 as examiner of accounts. Justice Humphrey in Brooklyn Supreme Court today awarde him an alternative mandamus order and refused his plea for a peremptory order which would have compelled Commissioner of Accounts Paul Blanshard to reinstate him forth with. Appointed 15 Years Ago When Blanshard took over the office on Jan. 1 he looked over the files and scanned the "recommendations" that resulted in McKenna's appointment nearly 15 years ago.

I When he found McKenna had I political affiliations that might I proe embarrassing in the event he would be called on to make certain investigations, Blanshard decided not to continue him in the position. The Commissioner told Justice Humphrey that the manner of rec-! ommendation and appointment in McKenna's case was the "orthodox" political method, and he added it is necessary for the Commissioner to personally know and have confidence in his examiners. He was not personally acquainted with McKenna, he said. The latter raised the contention that as a Spanish War veteran he could not be removed without charges and a hearing. The point to be decided is whether McKenna's job came under the protection of the civil service law.

Holdup Suspect Is Indicted for O'Dwyer Murder George Beneriatti. 21. of 505 12th was indicted today for first degree murder In connection with the fatal shooting on Jan. 7 of John O'Dwyer, brother of Magistrate William O'Dwyer. The shooting occurred during an early morning holdup of the Terminal Bar -mid Grill.

55 4th Ave. Benedatti pleaded not guilty and was held without ball by County Judge John J. Fitzgerald. Michael Connolly, 30, of 379 Henry who pleaded not guilty to a second degree manslaughter indictment, was held in $2,500 bail by Judge Fitzgerald. Connolly is a truck driver of the Department of Sanitation.

The indictment alleges that during a quarrel in a garage olution. I deplore that because a- tionalism leads to war." And in the offing she sees war, although where it will probably break out she declined to say. "Since the last war." she said, "I've come to the conclusion that I can't afford to become a prophet." "If the people of the rest of the world had responded to the Russian revolution, there would be no danger of war," she added. Don't Know Hitler Despite their mistakes, Russia and America, she said, were the two most interesting countries in the world today. "Italy is a lovely country minus Mussolini." As to Germany's dictator "I don't know Hitler, and I don't want to know him." She thought the- Jews, however.

"ought to be used to persecution by this time. Sterilization, she said, she approved in principle. "Unfortunately, it is used against the very people it shouldn't be," she said. "Those who have money wil buy themselves free from it as they have from everything else, and onlv the poor devil will have to pay the price. Besides, idiocy and insanity rest in high places." Spain Organized She declared Spain to be the most likely country for the triumph of anarchism at present.

There are 1,500,000 "comrades" there, she said, organized under the CNT, a confederation of "intellectuals and menials." Predict Anarchy Elsewhere, she admitted, "we are passing through a period of reaction, but anarchism will have Its day in the world court. "I don't think there is any reason to despair of libertarian revolutionary ideas. It isn't to be expected that in 100 or 200 years we can bring about fundamental social changes." It is only the people who have a material conception of success who cannot see the inevitability of anarchism, she contended, and veering to a discussion of her own conception of success, she said, "I consider myself a very great success according to my lights. I am quite willing to stand condemned as a prpnr. fnilliro hu vm, urVi success only in terms of material wealth." Talks of Own Role Only once throughout the interview did the traditional Goldman stridency give way to even a hint of mellowness.

That was as she discussed her own role in the anarchist scheme. "I was never an agitator," she said. "I was an educator, I hope. And I used to try to make converts when I was young. Now, I am not interested in converts.

I am interested only in making people think. The main cause of our troubles is that 99 out of every 100 people do not think." Bride of 3 Months Shoots Herself After only three months of married life. Mrs. Anna Mestelone, a comely blonde of 18, shot herself shortly before noon today in her apartment on the third floor of 306 Stuyvesant near Halsey following a quarrel with her husband. John.

Although she Is in a serious condition in Bushwick Hospital with a bullet wound in the left side of her abdomen, she refused to tell the police what the quarrel was about. Her husband likewise refused to discuss the spat. He said that after the quarrel he walked into the kitchen and his wife went to the bedroom. A moment later, he said, he heard a shot. Running into the bedroom, he said, he found his wife clutching his pistol which he had kept in a bureau drawer and for which he had a permit.

He telephoned the Gates Avenue police station. Nassau Jury Asks For More Talesmen A recommendation that more grand jurors should be drawn each month to serve in Nassau County to improve the efficiency of that body was made by the January Grand Jury to Justice Thomas J. Cuff last evening as they ended their terms. The recommendation was signed by Theodore F. Archer Jr.

of Hempstead, foreman, and William Miller, clerk of the retiring group. Site, Not Price Approves Ilifjher Educa tion Selection Both Sides Heard hy Board Continued from Page 1 for the buildings and the remainder in interest charges. Mayor Will Brook No Resistance The Mayor enlivened the hearings when he interrupted the remarks of Dr. Arthur M. Howe, representing the Board 0f Higher Education, to declare: "With all good will, I will ask the Board of Higher Education to consider the fact that we have to live together for four years.

If the Board of Higher Education takes an arbitrary stand and thinks the Board of Estimate has nothing to say on these matters, it is mistaken. I am going to take no resistance I from you, or from any other board as long as I am Mayor. Dr. Howe's Argument The Mayor's statement came after Dr. Howe had asserted that, though the Board of Higher Education is legally charged with tho duty of selecting a site for the college, every other group is trying to assist in, or veto, the body's choice.

When Dr. Howe responded that his board had no axes to grind, the Mayor smiled and responded: "I was only speaking generally." Ingersoll Presides The Mayor started the hearing by resolving the board into the Committee of the Whole and bidding Ingersoll to preside, as the issue was one affecting Brooklyn. The Mayor and Borough President exchanged seats. Ingersoll limited each side to 30 minutes' argument. Frank Peer Beal, secretary of the Brooklyn Community Council, directed the opposition.

against the site included William J. Maekin, Brooklyn vice president of the Community Council; Hugo Ses-selberg, Flatbush civic worker and editor; Miss Mary Tanzer, representing the Citizens Union; Maj. Henry Amy, representing the Citizens Budget Commission; Gregory Weinstein, Morris Deutsch, George Boochever, chairman of the Brooklyn Fusion party; Cornelius M. Sheehan, Mrs. Frances Bolton.

Stewart Browne, representing the United Real Estate Owners Associ- ation. Oppose Financial Plan The principal objection the opponents was at the financial arrangements sought by the Wood-Harmon firm. Site Defenders Speak Defending the site, in addition to Dr. Howe, were former Borough President Lewis II. Pounds of the i Brooklyn Civic Council, and Charles Kingsley.

representing the Fiske Terrace Civic Association. i Kingsley suggested that the board settle the issue by visiting the Wood-Harmon site and the others suggested and comparing them Ingersoll replied that he had done just this. Arguments Against The opposition to the site ranged from Sesselberg's assertion that the property was the "worst possible" that the city could acquire to Mack tacked as too closely abutting the Long Island Railroad freight yards, i Mayor Hits School Board Policy Mayor LaGuardia interrupted here to Inquire: "Isn't that in keeping with the Board of Education's policy: a freight yard to decorate this site just as gas tanks are looking on another site?" Dr. Howe said that the site had been selected after inspection of more than 20 properties offered. 2 Get Verdicts In Crash Suit A bizarre traffic accident thai.

They were guests of Frederick Meyer in the latter's car when it collided with a taxi. The Meyer car did a double somersault and the taxi, after breaking off a fire hydrant, caromed into another and turned over. Hutton's jaw w-as broken and several teeth knocked out. Women I re New Home Relief I Inn Adoption by the city of a neighborhood or district plan for giving home relief instead of the present centralized system was recommended today by the New York City Federation of Women's Clubs In its annual convention at the Hotel Astor. The proposed decentralized system would eliminate the necessity of "going miles" to obtain home relief.

Continued from Page 1 known," she said, "I would have walked and to another hotel." Her Redness now is only a deeper shadow in the pink haze that has enveloped the American scene. A chunky little woman with a pugnacious, underslung jaw and bobbed graying hair, she ranged the field of current events with swaggering conversational stridency and superb self-confidence in an interview at the Hotel Astor. If I had my life to live over again, she said, I do exactly as I did. I have no regret and I have no resentment none, that is, against individuals." Sticks by Guns And If, during her three-months stay in this country, the Governments objects to her sentiments "I'll leave," said Miss Goidman, "but I'll stick by my guns." America has grown more liberal since she was deported for anti-war activities, she conceded, "and it would be too bad If it had not, with everything else in the world changing." And on the whole, she said, she was glad to get back to this country, although she "might want to leave by the next train." "Nietzsche said, you know, that the test of love is the power of endurance. I must love America a great deal, because it has certainly made me endure a great deal," she remarked.

She had scarcely finished the comment, reminiscent as it was of the terrorism, both real and simulated, which accompanied her former sojourn here, when a box of flashlight bulbs which some news photographers had brought to the interview cascaded to the floor with a clatter and crash. Is Used to Blame Miss Goldman started slightly and then smiled. "I hope there won't be an accident here," she said. "They used to say that Emma Goldman was responsible for all the acts of violence in the last 50 years and in the next 100 years to come. They'll certainly blame it on me if an accident happens here." Turning to a discussion of Russia, the land to which she joyously went when America expelled her.

Miss Goldman was something less than her usual forthright self. The Russian revolution to her is still 'the revolution that is to come The Communis regime, she holds, does not represent the aftermath of a true revolution, but she is chary of the entire subject. Holds Lenin Great Lenin, she said, "was a great man" and so was Trotsky. "Stalin cannot be compared intellectually with either of them. He is more of a nationalist, primarily interested in Russia rather than in the world rev Verne Sankey Aide Seized in Chicago Chicago, Feb.

The associate of Verne Sankey, who faces trial in South Dakota for the abduction, was found in bed, made no resistance, and the Department of Justice men said he confessed readily. Sioux Falls, Feb. 2 (P) Sankey was returned to South Dakota today to face charges in the Boettcher kidnaping casts He was taken immediately to the county jail.

Olaf Eidem, Federal District Attorney, announced that bond would be set for the outlaw, but that it would be sufficiently high to prevent his release. Subway Board Drops 74 Men Seventy-four members of the Board of Transportation's technical staff were dropped today after a month's notice, it was announced at the office of John H. Delaney, board chairman. It was explained that the men were notified on Jan. 1 that they would not be needed after Jan.

31 because of lack of work. Tentative plans arc being made t. droo between 400 and 500 more men on March 1 if the city by that time has not obtained the Federal subway loan. Should the loan be received later, it was raid, the men dropped would be recalled. MRS.

The retaliatory measure, putting debt defaulters on notice anew that the United States expects payment of all war and post-war debts overdue, was approved and sent to the House without a record vote after Administration leaders and Senator Johnson author of the proposal. agreed to modifying amendments.

The measure first was passed unanimously Jan. 11. with only a handful of Senators on the floor, but had been held up since by a motion to reconsider by Senator Robinson of Arkansas, the majority leader. Robinson worked out the amendments with the State Department Johnson and pronounced the bill satisfactory to the Administration.

Price Held Too High The original "purchase," for was held up by former Sanitation Commissioner McAneny on the ground that the price was too high. The Ash Removal Company went into court with injunction proceedings, which, however, were dropped as negotiations appeared to be leading to a new agreement. Approval was not immediately extended today. Borough President Samuel Levy of Manhattan said he wanted more time to study the report, and it was put over for a week. Pending Since 1921 "This matter has now been pending since 1921." Mayor LaGuardia pointed out.

"The city sctually has the property and will save millions." The city's saving is expected to be aoout Sl.000.000 a year as against removal in BrooKlyn una er the old arrangement.

Mayor LaGuardia pleaded that "we haven't the money to make the necessary refunds" and Borough President Ingersoll of Brooklyn supported him. Borough President Levy.

Lyons of the Bronx, and Harvey of Queens alone voted for the proposal. The Mayor came out openly for abolition of the State Transit Com mission and. following his lead, the board voted against approving a S76.000 issue of special revenue bonds to pay salaries and expenses of the commission for February. Trees Abolition Repealing previous criticism thnt such payments should he provided for in the budget, the Mayor aiskeri: "Why not abolish the commission altogether?" when Borough Presi- dent Levy of Manhattan suggest eri a bill to the Legislature smiting tne cost of the commission from the city to the State. Aldermanic President Deutsch remarked that the present law -was mandatory and that unless the board approved the bond issue, the commission could get a mandamus.

The Mayor said he realized that, but was going to vote against the issue to establish his "case" and that me uiiicr memoers need not go along. Controller Cunningham re- marked that he would stand by the Mayor and Borough President Lyom-of the Bronx said he was ready to go to jail with the Mayor, if necessary.

Eatle Bureau, Colorado Hulldinc. By LEO ECAN Washington, Feb. 2 Impatient at the delay In putting men to work on the Triborough Bridge, Secretary Harold I. Ickea of the Interior Department, has warned New York City officials that unless impediments to the project are speedily removed the $44,000,000 loan will be cancelled. An auditor from Public Works Administration and Charles 8.

Tuttle, the State engineer for the PWA. have been directed by Iekes. as head Df the PWA. to check the aecounta and plans of Triborough Bridge Authority. Ickes revealed yesterday.

Probe Use of SKHI.OOfl The auditor and Tuttle are cooperating with the investigation being conducted by New York City officials into the use of the $100,000 advance given the Authority by the PWA. Ickes said yesterday that the Triborough Bridge was one of three projects to be financed with PWA funds which are being held up because of local political difficulties. The other two are a project in Nebraska and the so-called Ail-American Canal. The PWA, he made it clear, wants the situation respecting the Triborough Bridge Authority cleared up without delay so that work can commence, giving employment to laborers and artisans. Agree on Housing Secretary Ickes also revealed yesterday that the Housing Division of the PWA had come to an understanding with Controller General McCarl, which will permit it to go ahead with several projects.

Which projects are involved he would not say on the ground that land prices would be boosted to such an extent that they might have to be abandoned. One project suggested to the Housing Division involves the erec tion of low rental apartments in the Brownsville section of Brooklyn Johnson Quits The Triborough Bridge Authority was running along today without a general manager. Joseph E. Johnson, who had been mentioned in charges of inefficiency brought against Commissioner John S. O'Lcary, resigned last night.

Ha had been appointed on the recommendation of John F. Curry. Tammany leader, at a salary of $13,500 a year. Byrne Affected Johnson explained that he was retiring because the State Civil Service Commission had refused to exempt his position. The ruling of the Commission affects the position of Edward A.

Byrne, chief engineer, appointed at a salary of $20,000 a year. Mayor LaGuardia tomorrow will hear the charges against O'Leary and said he would probably announce his decision at the conclusion of the hearing. Chanin Settles Bank of U. S. Claim A compromise agreement under which Irwin S.

Cab Men Strike For Tax Split Continued from Page 1 can be pretty rough. As Mayor I can't take sides. I must look out for the welfare of all of the people. I know that you are not able to make a living wage, that you work long hours with dtnger to selves and your fares. Within Rights "You are entirely within your! rights as long as you conduct yourselves in an orderly manner.

"Do not hire any gangsters, because if you do it will be all off between us. If you hear of any of the companies doing so. let us and the police know immediately. The Mayor suggested that the strikers seek the advice of Hugh Frayne of the American Federation of Labor. Form Union I The taxi drivers told him they were organizing the United Taxicab Drivers Union with headquarters at 229 W.

42d Manhattan, under the presidency of William Gandall. Loyalty to Mayor LaGuardia was expressed by Gandall at union headquarters this afternoon. The union was known as the Fusion Taxicab Drivers Committee during the LaGuardia campaign. "If the Mayor tells us to go back to work, we'll go back to work." said Gandall. "We're with him 100 per-cent." Opposes Violence He said the strike was spontaneous and had developed In spite of his efforts to hold the men in check.

He announced the union as opposed to violence. "Anybody who gets rough will get kicked out of the he said. Royal Hall. 83 E. 4th Manhattan, has been selected as permanent headquarters for the organization.

A mass meeting will be held there tonight. The Parmelee System, Terminal Cabs, Radio Cabs and the Yellow Taxicab Company were the principal companies affected by the strike. Tie Fennsy Terminal At Pennsylvania Station, where Terminal Cabs have their largest stand, there were no taxis to pick up commuters this morning. Persoas waiting for cabs were told of the strike by special officers of the Pennsylvania and Long Island Railroads. An occasional independent cab slid down the ramp and picked up a passenger, but in the main the terminal was cabless.

The same situation existed at, the Long Island Railroad terminal in Brooklyn, Grand Central station and the various ferry terminals. Near the terminal employes of the operating companies were informing drivers who passed of the strike and asking them to return their cabs to their respective garages. Hits Borough Hall Stand Around the Borough Hall section of Brooklyn there were only about 50 cabs, mostly independents, in operation instead of the usual Tho cabs which were on the street were in great demand. One driver reported that his meter had clocked up $3.20 in his first hour and a half out of the garage. Usually, he said, he had to I run a full day before he could take in that amount in fares.

To date, the contest has narrowed down to two major contenders. Kelly and Postmaster Francis J. Sinnott, the East New York leader. And all indications point to Sinnott getting the backing of the Federal wing. Kelly would not comment today on a.

report that his backers among the district leaders would meet this evening to select a delegate to carry the Olive branch to the Postmaster General. The objective of this group is not only to effect Kelly's election but also to restore party harmony. BROOKLYN MAN KILLED Linden. N. Feb.

Miss Dietz Wins L200 Fellowship ss Emma Margaret Dietz. of Mr. and Mrs. Nicholas of 1108 Bushwick today-was the recipient of the $1,200 Sarah Berliner Research Fellowship awarded by the American Association of University Women for her work in chemistry. Miss Dietz's work has to do with the action of catylyst and oxidation processes in the human body.

Many of her articles on the subject have been printed in the Journals of the American Chemical Societv. Through the award she expects to continue her studies in the University of Munich. Miss Dietz. who is 28, took her A.B. at Barnard College after graduating from the Girls High in Brooklyn.

She won her A.B. in 1926. She won her Ph.D. under a resident fellowship awarded by Bryn Mawr College and in 1929 assisted Professor Conant. now president of Har vard, in chemistry.

The temporary headquarters established in W. 42d was busy today with chauffeurs signing membership applications. Cab Stoned For the mast part the Mayor's injunction against violence was carried out by the strikers. One driver of a terminal cab was cut by flying glass when a brick was hurled through the windshield at 23d St. and 1st Manhattan There were a few cases of drivers bemg threatened with bodily harm unless they Joined the strike, and a few cases where passengers were ordered from tho cabs.

Benjamin Salzbrcr reported that at, 8 a.m. he picked up six men at Ave. and 26th Manhattan, and was told to drive them to Moore St. and Manhattan Brooklyn. When he reached his destination the nun refused to pay him and told him he was lucky he.

did not "get his bumps." Salzberg was not aware of the strike up to that time. The strike, which was not widely heralded, was called mainly by word of mouth, passed from driver to driver during the past two days. Picket Garages When the night drivers brought their cabs into the garages at 6 a.m. today, the day men. instead of taking them out again, began picketing the garages.
