SHOW STILES hooks TO HAVE
BEEN FAULTY.
Late Mayor Of Allentown. Now Ac-
cused OF Irregularities, Proba-
bly, Involving Living officials.

Allentown. Pa. Especially. - The
Finance Committee of City Councils
took the first step in the probe OF
alleged irregularities OF the admin
istration of the late Harry G.. Stiles,
when 1t received the report of City
Controller Hausman on the audit of
the police court docket, in which the
Controller states that he found de
fault, irregularity and delinquency on
the part of the late Mayor"
While this report mentions none
but the late Mayor. II is thought
other officials will be brought into
the case. Among minor "irregulari-
ties' alleged against the late Mayor.
are the lack of report on such mat
ters as 5000 donation for police
protection for the Allentown Fair,
the imposition of costs in addition
to fines for minor oifenses, costs
money paid for furnishing officers to
head parades and protect circus
grounds and deposits made by special
officers for their badges
The docket, it is said, is in such
condition that a thorough investi-
cation is impossible. since the en-
tries are incomplete so far as Con-
troller Hausman has been able to
find. However, there appears to be
balance due the city of about
S1,400. The docket shows fines inn
posed amounting to S2,S52. with
1915 served in Jail sentences, while
the Mayors private docket showed
S574 as having been collected. The
fees which that official actually
turned over to the City Treasurer
amounted to $1,170.
Select Councilman Gehringer, who
began an investigation on his own
account, has found numerous cases
in which costs were imposed and
never recorded.
