N COURT AS CHEAT. | Former New York Secretary | of State Denounced at Opening of Trial. : v 3.—Mrs. Flor- Knapp, first woman ever to hold a State elective office, today heard | a special deputy attorney general char- acterize her in court as a cheat and a | swindler for the alleged la. ceny of State |funds during the census enumeration this morning before Supreme Court Jus- tice Callaghan, appointe@i by the gov- ernor to conduct a special term to hear the charges of maladministration. Chart Shows Salary Payments. “The indictment in this case,” Med- alie began, “charges that on November 17, 1925, the defendant stole from the State of New York a check in the amount of $2,875.06." Just before court convened a clerk hung against the wall in full view of the jury box a huge chart indicating census salary payments to six relatives of Mrs. Knapp. The chart showed the amounts of the payments and the periods covered in each case and quick- ly became the subject of the first ob- | jection of the actual trial. Check Declared False. Leading up to the place of the chart {in the State’s case, Mr. Medalie in a general way outlined the avenue of at- |tack. The check itself was false, he de- ared, because Clara Blanche Knapp id not work for the State of New York on the census or otherwise at the time covered by the check or other time, or did not earn $2,875.06 or any amount.” and Florence E. S. Knapp knew the representation to be false Telephone Alhnh: 1700-1701 R =ty that she managed as secretary of state. | George Z.

And here was Woodley Park, only 12 minutes from downtown: a couple of blocks off Connecticut Ave.; just far enough to be private, not isolated.
