District Attorney Banton expects to be able by next Monday to 1 more fear of the law in the hearts of the criminally inclined of New Yor! He conferfed to-day with his assis tants and had another conference set for late this: afternoon with the Judges of ten parts of the courts of New York County to complete his plan for placing on a preferred calen dar the 262 now pending trial, Asa result of his conference with his assistants an nounced they would begin to-morrow the preparation of the cases for trial He expected efter the meeting with the Judges to know these cases would Immediate hearing “1 intend to dispose of all crimes of violence on the calendar,” he said “The criminals will learn that the District Attorney and the courts of this county will not tolerate their law lessness. I plan also to publish of convictions together with t) tences every day so that the crimin: will see that not only is justice being dispensed speedily but with telling effectiveness. I expect that to hafe a salutary. effect as a crime deterrent.” Mr. Banton said that during the Jast month his department disposed of 165 cases more than the number com- ing in during the month, and that he expected to gain steadily with the co- operation of the Judges until all old cages are heard. Sixty of the 262 cases pending are bail cases. The robbery, hold-wp and similar cases will be heard first and the murder cases last. Goy. Miller to-day wrote Mr. Ban- ton congratulating him on the prog- ress of the District Attorney's office in clearing the calendar, Mr. Banton's announcement that criminals will be dealt with effectively was, followed by the sentencing of Abraham Goldstein, twenty-two, of No.. 843 East Eighth Street, by Judge Mulqueen in General Sessions, to twenty years in Sing Sing for the hold-up of a taxi driver Jan. 9. Mr. Banton told the Advertising Club at No, 47 East 25th Street at luncheon that it is his ambition té get the calendar so cleared hat it would be impossible to try criminals on the day following their indict- ments. “New York,” he continyed, ‘is not as bad a place as The New York ‘World and other papers say it is. It is wrong so to defame the city, The World Almanac shows that New York stands twenty-fifth in the crime st of the country." Incidentally, Mr. Banton said he had lost thirty-five pounds in weight since he became District Attorney. oe CRIME TO REDUCE POLICE PARADE Only Half of Force Will March, While Others Watch Criminals. Preparations are being made to show only half of the uniformed members of the police force to the public in the annual parade of the police.
