The grand jury, after spending two
weeks in an investigation of condi-

OmmcnGation should have met with a
more serious reception by the Mayor.

night by lawyers familiar with grand
jury work that any proceeding against
Mayor Gaynor based on his refusal to
act upon the recommendation of d
grand jury. as in the present instance.
would have To he initiated by the grand

the temper Of jhc grand jury over

on the reception Of its report by the
