THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D....C.; FATEOF GEOGHAN |[Model Linked With Alfonso | BRIISH AR HUB ~[£58 s UPTO GOVERNOR Special Prosecutor to Lay Drukman Murder Data Before Lehman. B the Assoclated Press. NEW YORK, July 6—The political future of District Attorney William F. X. Geoghan was at stake today as Speeial Prosecutor Hiram C. Todd headed for Albany to lay before Gov. Herbert H. Lehman the records of the far-reaching Drukman murder end conspiracy cases. Todd was to discuss with Gov. Lehman the three-fold charges upon which a special grand jury based its request for Geoghan's removal from office. The grand jury accused Geoghan of negligence and incompetence in prose- cuting the case and of associatiog with persons of ill repute. Bearing on Campaign. Gov. Lehman’s decision on removing feoghan was considered by political observers to have a close bearing on the Democratic party's chances of success in the Fall elections. Geoghan, it was pointed out, is strong in the Democratic organiza- tion in Kings County, although op- posed by a large body of independent | voters. Geoghan, meantime, indicated he would make a counter move by re- organizing his staff. He had pre- viously announced he would discharge & number of politically appointed-as- sistants and appoint in their stead men recommended by the Brooklya Bar Association. His staff includes William W. Klein- man, one of the two defendants in the Drukman conspiracy case on whom the jury was unable to agree. Three others were convicted of con- spiracy to obstruct justice in the pros- ecution of the slayers of Samuel Druk- man, who was found beaten and strangled in a storage garage March 3, 1935. Police had been anonymously noti fleld that “a man was screaming there. Three Men Arrested. While patrolmen were examining Drukman's body, three men hiding in the darkness in other parts of the ga- rage were discovered and arrested. They were Mever Luckman, the head of the garage concern; Harry Luckman, his nephew, and Fred Hull, an ex-convict The case was presented to the April grand jury, which a week after the slaying voted “no indictment,” and | the three prisoners were freed. Geoghan was re-elected in Novem- ber after his opponents had made the Drukman case an issue in the cam- paign. When the November grand jury re- turned four indictments, Gov. Lehman | relieved Geoghan of the prosecution. | A short time later Todd was appointed in his place. The special grand jury which de- manded Geoghan's removal is still in session and is expected to make fur- ther recommendations. MACHINERY TRADE PROGRESS IS CITED %Vast” Improvement in Fifth Manufacturing Industry Is Reported. By the Assoctated Press. Renewed activity in almost cited by the Commerce Department today as indications that the country is in fact emerging from the depression.” Although 1933 is the latest year for | which complete statistics on the ma- chinery industries are available, the department said business had im- proved “vastly” since that time, em- ployment is greater, pay rolls larger and the value of commodities pro- duced is higher. “Certain underlying factors,” report said, chases of machinery and equipment and the existence of vast reserves of credit, point to definite expansion in the various machinery industries and present trends fully justify the feel- ings of optimism generally prevailing within the industry.” Ranked fifth among the manu- facturing industries in 1933, the ma- chinery group employed approxi- the mately 500,000 persons that year, paid |_ more than $500,000,00 in wages and produced commodities valued atabout $2,000,000,000, the report said.

By the Associated Fress, PORTSMOUTH, England, July 6.~ A new British air hub was in the making last night, while mechanics tuned up the*first flying boat of & promised Atlantic fleet. The giant four-motored plane, pro- totype of the airliner with which Britain is to face the Atlantic voyage, made its first appearance on the slip-way at Rochester this week. Others are nearing completion. ‘The actual work of making Lang- stone Harbor a combined land and marine base for the empire and trans- Atlantic routes is expected to be- gin in another month. By this step the -United Kingdom expects to advance a program of civil aviation aimed at putting the em- pire on top of the flying world.

As far as Britain's contribution to trans-Atlantic travel is concerned, the chief interest now ¢centers in the fly- ing boats which, stripped to bare. es- sentlals, are to make reconnoitering flights before long, Plans Are Kept Secret. Progress on the a pick-a-back air- plane, a combination in which a “mother” plane will carry on its back a smaller long-range seaplane for “launching” at high altitude, is more secret. Britain's first efforts toward trans- Atlantic service are expected to be directed at Bermuda via the Canary Islands, with the North Atlantic crossing to be attempted later. Expansion within the empire air service proper this year is to include substitution of Imperial Airways flying boats for Australian planes from Singapore to Australia; use of flying boats on & service along the east coast of Africa instead of flying over Cen- tral Africa with land planes; more efficient service in general through in- creased subsidies, and carrying of all first-class mail by air without sur- charg: | | Only afew dem- onstrators at this attractive price.
