Enright, former po- lice commissioner and candidate for mayor, declared he was convinced that McManus was not the man who shot H g Rothstein and that Mr. Banton would i no; be able Oé: convict him. . { H e lames D. C. Murray, McManus’ law- 1 4l i 5 yer, said his client was ready and wait- = g g ‘)'l ‘i n ‘l b l ing for trial at his home, 51 Riverside B “ 1 D pe e drive, but that “Mr. Banton will never H get this case as far as a jury.” Mr. Enright continued to say that he had a very well defined “opinion as to who killed Rothstein, based on in- formation,” he had received. He de- i . o » . . clared, however, that he would reveal p } > that opinion and the information upon 2 i k which it was based only to a grand : : S 7 jury, or a public investigation which S S & g Gov.

He said he stood prepared to tell -" y g ‘m \ \ . any grand jury all he knew.

Coudert, jr., Republican can- didate for district attorney, may be afforded the opportunity to reveal the . : basis of their statements that all has 7 g not ben uncovered in the Rothstein g J l ’ Ve case. An additional opportunity for all ) L three candidates to tel what they know URN“URE ‘was promised by I. Gainsberg, attorney for the Rothstein estate. He declared L that his duty to the estate compelled him to collect all moneys due the estate. For the purpose of ascertaining whether the charges of Messrs. La Guardia, En- right and others that men in public positions owed Rothstein money were well founded, Mr. Gainsburg announced ° that he would apply in Surrogate’s Court Monday for order calling upon them to show cause why they should not SHerDier e n a e o6 0 0 O disclose the names of persons owing money to the Rothstein estate. Judge Scores La Guardia. Judge Albert H. Vitale described Mr. | La Guardia’s action in making it known ° ° that he had borrowed money from a Rothstein institution as ‘“despicable.” an ul es an leces e uce It was purely a business transaction, 4 . involving a loan with interest paid and = the note retired upon the date of its 2 maturity.
