Miss Lee said she formerly lived in

Comptroller Charles L. Craig scored
4 sensational victory yesterday after
noon over his battling opponent, F. H.
La Guardia, President OF the Board of
Aldermen, in the return engagement
between the adjective hurting cham
pions of the Board Of Estimate. The
result was a surprise.
In the early exchanges LaGuardia's
snappy work in the clinches gave him
big lead on points, put in the final
round the Comptroller. staging a SEN
satonal comeback, unleashed an en-
tirely new adjective and Aattened his
opponent for the full count.
The new adjective is 'blackguardia. :"
snd rngside experts of much expert
ence declared after the battle that thew
had never heard anything even remote
~ like it before. The Comptroller
shot over his original effort with
lightning effect in the midst of swift
rally after La Guardia apparently had
him out on the ropes. The Com ptrol-
Ter covered up his deadly intent by
mixing his new Knockout adjective
with a lot Of his older stuff, which is
impressive but lacks the element OF
surprise.
Fight Over Garages
The fight was staged in the midst Of
8 debate on the wisdom of assigning
city property for the construction of
garages for the snow removal machin-
cry.
The Comptroller opposed the idea, on
the ground that there was lots of time
Mayor Hyan, who has decided views
on the subject Of snow removal, init
mated that the snow might be here be-
fore we knew it.
President La Guardia supported the
Mayor and led right and let into the
Comptrol;er's guard with this: "If the
Comptroller will use the same scrutiny
and care in assigning city-owned prop
erty TO city departments as he does in
assigning city property TO his friends
he will be better off"
Under this onslaught the Comptrol-
Ter retreated to the ropes ana covered
ID. As the President Of the Board of
Aldermen stepped back to get room for
knockout punch the Comptroller sud
denly sidestepped and swung heavily
Tor the jaw.
The statement made by the Alder
manic President is made from whole
cloth" he countered swiftly. La
Gaardia took this one without finch
ing and came up smiling.

1T is the Com ptrol,er landed

Mayor Peters had made unlawful use
cf public funds in continuing the pay
nent OF salaries Of deceased emolovees
to their relatives for q certain period
after death. This is the first personal
attack made on the Mayor by the COM

The Mayors own arguments against
the payments of public funds for this
purpose are turned against him by the
commission, which recalls that he
termed them special privileges' and
"gratuities' and, therefore, recognized
them as unlawful. The commission has
recommended that in the future the
