26 WALKER FOES USE ROTHSTEIN DEATH Opponents of New York Mayor Employ Slaying to Hurl Election Charges. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, October 1.—Political opponents of Mayor James J. Walker and Tammany Hall continued during the week end to stress the issue arising from the mysterious slaying almost a year ago of Arnold Rothstein, Broadway gambler and racketeer. ‘The leading development was a re- quest today by Norman Thomas, Soclalist candidate for mayor in the coming election, that Acting Gov. Herbert H. Lehman order an investi- gation of the Rothstein case as the only way out “of a disgraceful mass of icion which touches high officials, uding the mayor and judges.” ‘Thomas criticized the decision of District Attorney Joab H. Banton to hasten the trial of George “Hump” McManus for the slaying, a decision which was made after Representative F. H. La Guardia, Republican candidate for mayor, and former Police Commis- sioner Richard E.

Thomas said that from the point of view of Banton's critics, “the trial will either &nake McManus a scapegoat or break lown.” Meanwhile, Enright announced he dd not believe McManus shot Rothstein and that he had a definite opinion as to who did, based on information “that i I consider quite important.” He said if he were asked to do so he would lay this information before a grand jury. Mayor Walker continuea to wiauold comment on La Guardia's specific charge that Magistrate Albert H. Vitale had borrowed $19,940 from Rothstein. The magistrate has admitted obtaining such a loan, but denied it was a “per- sonal transaction.” He said he ob- tained it through a friend and that he did not know until after the transac- tion was completed that Rothstein was involved.

H. Leigh, chief of the Bureau of Navigation, today issued this advice to the naval service: “Every discouragement should be offered 10 firms selling on the installment plan or other forms of credit articles not classed as necessities. Such firms understand that they have recourse to civil action, that few naval men have property which can be attached; some are unaware of the fact that the pay of naval men can- not be garnisheed. “In cases of judgment by civil courts against naval personnel, appropriate action will be taken by commanding of- ficers or by this bureau,” Admiral Leigh added. Commanding officers were advised to investigate each indebtedness complain’, and take such action as the case war- rants, the explanation being that “it 1s | the desire of the bureau that these mat- vogue in_ approved floor coverings —Floortex and Inlaid Linoleum ARCADIA BLUE-RUG “Arcadia” is an a; used in dining room, living room or iate name for this happy design which may be bedroom.
