There is no racial demand for unity. for
the eastern and western Slavs are far
removed in temperament, in ideals. in

Russia S desire is not to unite these
Slavs for their betterment. but only for
the tremendous military and political
power that they will so gain in their

Cannot Use for Becker
tBy Associated Pressl

New York, April 14.-Lawyers on
both sides in Becker's second trial
doubt whether "Dago Frank Cirofci's
confession just before his execution,
which was made public last night, can
be used as Becker testimony. Cirofci
said Becker had nothing to do with
the Rosenthal murder, that it was
wholly a gamblers quarrel, and that
"Gyp the Blood Lefty Louie" and
WALTON did the shooting. Its inadmis.
sibility is based on the fact that 1t is
mostly hearsay.

actual murder was committed.
Statement Was Voluntary.


According to Mr.. CLANCY practically
everything that Cirofici said after he
started to make his final statement
was voluntary. His defense OF Becker
came absolutely without suggestion
from anyone, the warden mentioned.
Cirofci's statement was not wholly
unexpected 1t was rumored last
Thursday that he might talk and this
caused the Governor to send Mr.. Riley
to Sing Sing. The prisoner gave Mr..
Riley statement which contradicted
the latter one in some minor details.

the crime of killing Rosenthal.
"Whitey Lewis" always declared that
he did not fire a shot and it is the
warden's opinion that his dying words
were, 81 didn't shoot at Rosenthal"
Wants No More Executions.
Mr. Clancy said that "Dago Frank
and "Whitey Lewis" always believed
that they were not as guilty of STAY

fired the shots.

sitting in Mr.. Riley's office tonight,

that no other man would pay the pen.

this State.
81 hope he said, ito see the next
Legislature pass a law permitting
juries to fix a life penalty and that
this reform will succeed in doing away
with capital punishment"
Warden Clancy denied reports that
he was ION the verge of a nervous
breakdown" owing to his experience
with the gunner.
Governor Glynn was greatly inter
ested in the report of the warden, but
he declined to make any comment or
the case.
Both Mr.. Riley and Mr.. Clancy ex
pressed the opinion that nothing con
tanned in Cirofici's statement would
have any effect on the second tria
of former Police Lieutenant Charles
Becker. Mr.. Clancy said the state
ment was made only after relatives
of the condemned man had pleaded
for the truth.
The warden added that he had nc
desire to make the statement a lega
record and therefore did not take
: "Dago Franks" words down in writ
ing and had not placed him under
oath.
