And it is true it may start the wheel of industry, but the State of New York cannot wait for that. The time for pllmud-s has passed. It is time now for action.” » The action he sought was not im- mediately forthcoming, for the lature recessed soon after he concluded untli Monday. Before it did, however, Assemblyman Irwin Steingut, Demo- cratic leader of the Assembly, intro- duced bills based on the Governor's proposal and declared: “Party lines at a time like this should forgotten.” Senator George Feraon, Republican leader from Syracuse, met this declara- fon with a call to his rty: “Let's keep politics out of this.”” He said the majority agreed with “funda~ mentals” of the relief pre , particu- larly the plan to raise the money by in- creased income taxes.

A single bullet hole through the left eye had taken his life, an ambulance surgeon sald. His body was found a short distance from the club room where three men were found stabbed and clubbed to death a week ago. About the same time 15 detectives and several squads of heavily armed rolice surrous an apartment house on Bushwick avenue in Brooklyn and captured seved men, five pistols and a quantity of ammunition.

All commanding of- | ficers’ days off were canceled until further notice. The crimes charged against the 94 men in this morning’s police line-up | ranged from vagrancy to safe-blowing and murder, but the outstanding char- acter was Ignazio Lupo.

The charges included kidnaping, extortion, counterfeiting and murder. Discovery of a vast counterfeiting en- terprise caused him to be sent to At- lanta Penitentiary and landed 45 other members of his gang behind bars. The United States Secret Service broke up with those arrests what they called the greatest counterfeiting ring the world. But the gang did not die. The secret service men accused Lupo of di- recting their activities from the Fed- | eral prison. The gangsters, who had escaped con- viction introduced the automobile in underworld warfare.
