WOMAN THIEF AND MAN
USE CHARITY AS CLOAK
Mother of City Employee Is
One Victim of Couple.

An accurate description, on file at the
Department OF Charities. is likely to aid
the police in catching up with a young
woman who. 1t Is alleged, used the de-
partment as a means of gaining employ
ment and used the employment as a
means of robbng the family by whom
work was given to her.
On last Thursday Reginald Massoneau.
a clerk at the bureau of employment of
the Department of Charities, became in
terested in the case of man and woman
who went there, and after stating that
they were married and telling various
pathetic details of their struggles to get
OH declared they would go 10 work at
anything they could get.
Massoneau was impressed with their
appearance and took special interest in
them A place was found for the man
in Manhattan and Massoneau sent the
woman to the home Of his mother. Mrs.
Robert Massoneau, IL East Nineteenth
street. Flatbush.
The young woman was installed as
cook and prepared an excellent dinner.
The next morning she complained about
the condition of an icebox which stands
in a vestibule just inside the back door
| os the house. Mrs. Massoneau accom-
panied her into the vestibue, and as
soon as they were inside it the new SER
want locked Mrs. Massoneau in and, ac-
! cording to the report to the police, went
through the up stairs part of the house
| at her leisure.
| 1t was an hour before Mrs. Massoneau
through the arrival of grocer's' boy,
| was able to get out. Then 1t was found
that the new servant had gone and that
| fur coat, watch and $45 in money
also were missing. Inquiry by the police
at the place weber her husband was en-
| ployed revealed the fact, they say, that
after holding his job for one day he had

HUSBAND WINS SUIT,
CITING MOSES'S LAW
Wife Accused Of Not Asking
BrOther-in-law to Wed Her,
Or Spit in His Face.
ANNULMENT IS SOUGHT
Twenty Days Given to Reopen
Case So Trial Can Be Had
to Decide Facts.

Failure on the part OF Mrs. Caroline
Friezner. so years old. to ask her
brother-in-law to marry her and to spit
in his face If he refused may result In
the ahnulment Of her marriage to jacob
F'riezner. go, Of 241 Broadway.
He is suing in the Supreme Court to
annul their marriage upon the ground
that she falsely and frauduiently repre-
sented to him that she had complied
with this law as laid down in chapter 20
Of the Book Of Deuteronomy. Mrs.
F'riezner, who was widow when she
married the plaintiff. demurred to the
complaint In the annulment action upon
the ground that it does not constitute
cause Of action. In other words, she
said that there Is no legal ground Tor
annulment Of the marriage even If her
failure to comply with the law OF Deu-
teronomy be conceded
In overruling the demurrer and grant,
ing Judgment to Friezner upon the plead
ing unless his wife files an answer with
in twenty days. Justice Lydon said:
1.-THE representations made to the
plaintiff by the defendant were to the
effect that the defendant was marrying
the plaintiff according to the laws Oh
Moses and Israel and the plaintin made
particular inquiry Of the defendant to
make certain that they would be married
according to the laws Of Moses and
Israel. This question Is not without diff
ficulty, and l firmly believe that upon a
motion Of this kind the court should not
attempt to determine the seriousness OF
the fraud, or whether or not 1t Is SUI
fcient to warrant the decreeing OF an
annulment. The conservation OF justice
requires that this question must neces-
sarily be determined by means OF trial.
for only after hearing witnesses and the
presentation Of the case in its entirety
can this fact best be judged.
'4The fraud alleged in the complaint
Is that the defendant fraudulently rep
resented to the plaintiff that she had
observed, abided by and gone through
certain Jewish orthodox religious prac-
tice which requires a widow who never
has had children and whose deceased
husband has a brother surviving to ask
said brother Of the deceased husband to
marry her, and that II said brother is
either unwilling or unable the required
ceremony Is for the widow to remove his
shoe with a particular ceremony.
1.-THE ceremony which the plaintiff re-
fers to is no doubt that contained In the
Book Of Deuteronomy, chapter rs, sec
tions S to 10, reading as follows:
"If brethren dwell together and one
Of them die and have no child the wife
Of the dead shall not marry without
unto q stranger: her husbands brother
shall 20 in unto her and take her to him
to wife and perform the duty of a hus-
bands brother unto her.
"'6 And it shall be that the first born
which she beareth shall succeed in the
name of his brother aohich Is dead, that
his name be not put out of Israel.
"'7. And IL the man like not to take
his brothers wife, then let his brother s
wife go up to the gate unto the elders
and say, My husbands brother refuseth
to raise up unto his brother a name in

public gatherings His first address was
delivered before the Brooklyn Chamber
of Commerce at luncheon, and his sec
ond in the evening at the dinner OF tne

Commodore Hotel. The Commissioner
statements at the sergeants dinner Were
supported by speeches by Comptroller

Auxiliary Bishop or Brooklyn; Edward
Riegelmann, President of the Borough
of Brooklyn, and Rabbi Joseph silver
man. The Mayor stayed away from the
dinner, but sent notes.
To the members of the commerce or
ganization Commissioner EnriSht salu
that one Of the chief difficulties or the
department lies in the failure OF popular
sentiment to support some OF the laws.
He did not specify the Volstead act.
To the sergeants he declared that IN
the last three years the police nave
kept the city the cleanest. safest and
greatest in all the world" And then
coming down to the present he referred
to his own position. y
"I feel stronger now after three years
in office" he said, "and l am not quite so
scared about my resignation as was. |
don't know how I will be able to resign
until one of the gentlemen who have
been nominated for the job signifies his
intention of thaking il"

Commissioner Enright denied "crime

He pointed out that during December,
1916, there were 1,156 felony cases
that there were 1874 in December 1917,
while in the corresponding month OF
1920 there were only 1.O35. At the same
time. he said. the growth in population
and the general moral condition OF the
country would appear to make for more
crime.

Enright, may have had one good re-
suit. if it has focused public attention
upon our inadequate police force. We
