Assistant District Attorney Colllgan then
asked Rosensweig about his complaint
against the gangsters. Rosensweig. after
twisting uneasily In his chair, denied that

Judge Malone that he had made some
complaint against the gang leader, but
shook his head and would not tell why.
Don't you know" said MIR. Coiigan
that YOU would not dare 10 SIT In tha'
chair and testify against Dopey Benny
