chair- his tern is is 2 BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE, NEW YORK, MONDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1932 Denies Judicial Deal On Hofstadter Okayed Aron as 'Sitting Judge' -Solon's Name Unmentioned at Time W. Kingsland Macy's indorsement City Court Judge Aron Steuer for the Supreme Court bench in the Tammany-Koenig deal did not involve a Democratic okay for State Senator Samuel H. Hofstadter, the Republican State chairman informed The Eagle today. In his first comment on what happened behind the scenes in the bench dicker now being investigated by the New York County Lawyers Association, Macy said that he had approved of a Republican indorsement for the son of Max D. Steuer because he regarded young Steuer as a sitting judge who should be given a bipartisan nomination.

The occasion Macy's comment today was publication of fore the fact that the judiciary committee of the Lawyers Association will report to the board of directors of the organization this afternoon that no deal was involved in Justice Steuer's indorsement, The Hofstadter angle of the case has not been investigated completely as yet. Call Macy Moving Spirit In announcing that the report on Justice Steuer had been completed, Peter Gatens, a member of the subcommittee which questioned witnesses privately, declared that Macy had admitted he was the moving spirit behind Steuer's approval and that he was glad to accomplish it because of his admiration for the Justice's father, Max D. Steuer, Tammany Hall's first-string legal adviser. Asked for his version of what happened when Steuer and the chairman of the New York City investigating committee were given bipartisan nominations, Macy said: "The underlying reason for my approval of Judge Steuer was that I regarded him as a sitting judge with a good record. I felt that sitting judges, regardless 1 of party, should be indorsed, and I conveyed that thought to Mr.

Koenig. "At no time was Senator Hofstadter's name mentioned in connection with Judge Steuer's. Two days before they were nominated I heard a rumor that the Senator was going to, be named by Tammany, but I was unable to verify it. "I couldn't believe it was true and, As I have said before, I was amazed when he was named." Confirms Gatens' Story The elder Steuer, as a special deputy district, tttorney investigating the the Bank of United States, obtained the indictment of Superintendent Joseph A. Broderick, Governor Roosevelt's prize cabinet member.

Broderick was subsequently acquitted. Macy confirmed what Gatens had said about his, Macy's, admiration of Judge Steuer's father, but insisted that the main indorsement reason for his approving an for son was a desire to approve sitting judges irrespective of party. In discussing Macy's story, Gatens said: "Mr. Macy explained that after the Bank of United States failure, when the Republican party was considering legislation for banking reform, he consulted many lawyers in search of advice. Of all those he saw, he told us, Mr.

Steuer, who was serving as special deputy district attorney, was the best informed and most helpful. "Mr. Steuer informed us that he resolved then that if the opportunity ever presented itself to do anything to help Mr. Steuer he wanted to do 1t. On three different occasions, he said.

he spoke to Mr. Koenig about it. He was deeply aggrieved to think that any one suspected anything sinister about the Republican indorsement of Justice Steuer. "We called Mr. Koenig before us and he confirmed what Mr.

Macy had said about his anxiety to do something for Mr. Steuer." In his report on the qualifications of the bench candidates in the First and Second Judicial Districts, made public the Citizens Union indorses independent candidates in Manhattan and Justice Leander B. Faber and C. Walter Randall, Republicans, in this district. Candidates Indorsed The recommendations as to the individual candidates follow: FIRST DISTRICT GEORGE W.

"Justice in Steuer's the legal ability profession. is generally His recognized work in the City Court has indicated qualifications for judicial duties. The Citizens Union believes the preference accorded him by the two party machines over other competent and more experienced members of the profssion is not justiflable in itself and reflects the operation of the selfish motives which guided the nominating conventions." SAMUEL H.

HOFSTADTER "Senator Hofstadter has occupied position of leadership in the Legislature for several years and in a large part of his work has had the wholehearted support and co-operation of the Citizens Union. The union regarded him as distinctly fitted for the manship of the City Inquiry Committee and believes that in presiding at the committee's sessions he displayed rare Judicial temperament. "However, he has accepted A nomination for office from the very organization that now stands indicted before the committee.

Fate of White Man Rests With Yellow Decidedly Red in Politics, Orient Missionaries Declare, May Dash World Into Racial War for Industrial Supremacy The seething mass of color and growing remarkably red in the destiny of Western civilization Two missionaries, preaching lyn churches with the intense? seriousness of the young men that they were and with a knowledge of Oriental conditions gained through years living and working in the East, called upon their audiences to realize that China's fate is theirs. It was "Missionary Sunday" in the churches but the missionaries were talking world problems and backing up their statements with uncompromising facts of the spreading of Communism and unrest in the East.

Judd, a medical missionary, who has spent five years in China under the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions and 1s service at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, spoke at the rally of Congregational Churches at the Tompkins Avenue Congregational Church, Tompkins Ave.

and McDonough St. Specter of War The Rev. Charles A. Wells, who has traveled extensively throughout Europe and under the Board of Missionary Co-operation, was the speaker at the Marcy Avenue Baptist Church, Marcy and Putnam Aves. The story they told was not that of the struggle of China and Japan in Manchuria.

Both dismissed that with a gesture as something that could easily be stopped, while at the same time they both brought up the specter of a great war in which "consciousness of color" would be all powerful and consciousness of the need of industrial supremacy of the world would be the whip to hurl the world into a war of white against yellow race. Odds With Yellow Race And both state that the odds for victory are on the yeliow race though war is a weapon the white man taught them to use. Dr. Judd pictured China not as a nation but as a people of families whose security in natural boundaries had given them no reason to be welded into a nation. Because they never felt the need to define them, the Chinese have no word for nation or for freedom in their language, he said.

"The Chinese's responsibility was always to his family," he continued, "and not State. the breakdown For the old civilization under the influx of Western civilization, he is presented with the idea of the State as the unit to which he must conform and he does not know how to do it. "China is faced with accepting further domination by Western Powers and because she does not want that she is going into Communism, not because she believes ference of opinion exists in the union's committee on local candidates concerning Justice Genung's work in the Municipal Court. Some believe he has not made a good Judge. They criticize him for arbitrary and discourteous treatment of litigants and attorneys demonstrations of unjudicial temperament.

Others commend him for efficiency in disposing of calendars and in the trial of cases. There practical agreement that he has a good knowledge of the law.

"Germany knows perfectly well," he said, "that Great Britain does not oppose her claim to be regarded equal at the disarmament conferences. Our policy is no rearmament. "I profoundly regret that Germany has refused to come to Geneva for preliminary disarmament discussions because of reasons the substance of which it is difficult for me to detect. The British Government is continuing to pursue its purpose and hopes to make further announcement in a few days." Stands by League Germany knows that Great Britain is anxious to bring Germany and her neighbors into relations of greater confidence, said MacDonald. "The national government cannot think of Europe and the world without the League of Nations.

Graham Files New Suit vs. Fisher in Real Estate Row Repeats Fraud Charge in Deals Swinging Properties to Newestar Firm Following permission of the Supreme Court to withdraw a previous suit in which he charged James B. Fisher, prominent Brooklyn realtor, with fraud in obtaining possession of his real estate holdings, James S. Graham, equally as well known in local realty circles, has filed a new suit in which he sets forth similar allegations.

The new suraham that a contract which signed transferring all of his properties to the James S. Graham-Fisher Corporation be declared void and that Fisher render an accounting of all moneys received in the operation of them. Mr. Graham alleges that Mr. Fisher took advantage of his ill health in 1930 and, through threats of ruining his credit and causing foreclosure proceedings to be instituted against his various properties, him to sign over the entire control and management of his affairs.

The complaint, which was filed Saturday, cites in detail how Mr. Graham lost ownership of the Hotel Touraine, 23-25 Clinton St. into which he had invested over $250,000, and three other downtown Broooklyn parcels. This alleges that Fisher "conceived the idea of obtaining title to the four properties mentioned" and that through mortgage manipulations the properties eventually came into the the Newestar Realty Corporation which Fisher controlled. "The effect of this transfer," the complaint continues, "gave the Newestar Realty Corporation approximately $15,000 without the investment of a single penny and that, prior to this transaction, the defendant Newestar Realty Corporation had no money or property and no bank account.

"This whole transaction was based on false representations and made for the sole purpose of inducing Graham to transfer the property so that James Fisher could obtain it through his corporation and without consideration." $3,923,000 Fund Drive Opened for Jewish Budget that is -yellow in race politics -hides the answer to and of all humanity. yesterday in different Brook- in it, but because she has nothing else." Warns of Militarization Stating that the Chinese had not vet turned from their century old idea that only outcasts became soldiers, he issued a solemn warning: "If you let China get militarized, she will be the greatest danger on the face of earth." The Rev. Mr. Wells told of student and coolie riots he had watched, riots that "have been sweeping all over Asia the last few years," and he broadened the race problem to include India and Russia. "The Communist program is SO evident in the East that you cannot dodge it." he declared.

"Wars in the past have all been waged by the white man for industrial supremacy. No Longer Alone "Today the white man faces a new world where both China and Japan see in themselves great resources, rich raw materials. No longer will the white man alone fight over industrial supremacy." It was Dr. Judd who pointed out that in industrial competition alone. tariffs could not protect the American workman who gets from $2 to $7 a day from the coolie who suspects he is being overpaid if he gets 30 cents a day, And that the Western standard of living would not stand against a standard of living which cares for a family for from $30 to $50 a year.

Both men urged that a concerted movement for peace and spread of Christ's teaching in the East were the only ways to stem the tide of yellow and of red. Ordinance to Curb Frauds in Weight By Coal Dealers Enforcement of a new ordinance against "short-weight" coke and coal deliveries has dealt a serious blow to unscrupulous fuel dealers, the Coal Merchants Association of Brooklyn said today. The association was instrumental in passing the ordinance aimed to drive out the short-weight dealers. The ordinance, it is said. will save coal users hundreds of thousands of dollars annually.

It requires every coal or coke delivery truck to display a sign or panel on the right side near the seat giving the exact weight In pounds of the delivery. Before unloading, the driver 1s required to present the ticket to the purchaser, who has the option of accepting the delivery or having the purchase reweighed on an official scale at a nominal charge. The ordinance provides for fines up to $100 on firms or drivers who refuse to submit their deliveries to reweigh, in addition to the former penalties for shortweight deliveries. The public is urged to help enforce the law. Parachute Fails To Open, Flier Dies West Point.
