MRS. MARGARET a. HIRSCH
FACES JURY IN GRIM
INAL DIVISION.

Atlanta. Ga. March "A. -- Mrs,
Margaret A. iirsch went on trial
here today in the criminal division
of the Fulton County superior court
on a charge Of attempted verbal
blackmail of Asa G.. Gambler, mil
lionaire mayor of Atlanta. Mrs,
Hirsch was indicted definitely Feb
ruary 4 with J. w. Cook, who al
ready has been tried and convicted
OF the charged and sentenced to
serve a year and day at hard
labor and to pay a fine of $l,OOO,
Counsel for Mrs. Hirsch recently
made a motion for change of venue,
but it was denied.
The charge for which Mrs. Ilirsch
is on trial is the outgrowth of a
visit she is alleged to have made to
Mayor Gamblers office early in Feb
ruary. Mayor Gambler previously
had known Mrs. Hirsch in connec-
ton with Red Cross work, accord
ing to a written statement he made
to the grand jury.
During their conversation on the
day Mrs. Hirsch called upon the
mayor his attention was diverted
it was alleged before the grand jury
and when he turned to face hel
again certain articles Of her cloth
ing had been removed. This, witt
the sudden appearance of Cook al
the mayors Office door, according
to Mr.. Gamblers statement, led hin
to become suspicious. He said he
then placed the matter in the hands
of his attorney, who subsequently
laid it before the grand jury.
Witnesses before the grand jur.
are reported to have sworn that aft
er Mrs. Hirsch's visit to the may
or's office she and Cook had at
tempted to eXtort S5OO,0OO from
Mayor Gambler through threats o
revealing alleged relations betweel
the mayor and Mrs. Hirsch.
