out Bail for Grand Jury
Action.

Edwin Arden Noblett OF 131 Riverside
Drive. Manhattan, was held for the
Grand Jury without bail by Magistrate
Geisnar at Coney Island yesterday,
charged with having swindled Arthur
Victor, a disabled war veteran. out OF
his life's savings of $4,000 through
fraudulent advertisements published In
New York newspapers. The crowd IN
the court room cheered when the Magis-
trate's decision was announced. Assist
ant District Attorney Selvaggi. VINO
prosecuted the case. told the court that
since Noblett's arrest August more
than fifty additional complaints had
been made against him.
Victor, who is photographer at 622

Argonne, at St Mihiel and around Yer
dun, receiving a shrapnel wound In the
head and fractured thigh. He said
that he answered an advertisement In
serted last spring under Business OPP
poreunities" and Help Wanted" head
irgs in the newspapers. and that he met
Noblett at the Riverside Drive address.
Victor said the advertisement read:
Party wanted with $1,000 to $4,000

-
Probable profits should average $500 to
$500 daily. depending on investment.
Don't miss this opportunity"

quired as security" for his honesty.

HASKELL-LA GUARDIA
MERGER DISCUSSED
AIdermanic Head May Seek
denomination.

That the Haskell-La Guardia nego-
tiations for a merger of their political
forces In the primary campaign are still
slmmering became apparent yesterday
when Judg ge Rueben L. Haskell, inde-
pendent candidate for the Republican
nomination for Mayor, expressed the
belief that F. II. La Guardia- President
of the Board of Aldermen and also an
independent seeker for the Republican
Mayoralty nomination. would join him.
The fact that a large part OF La
Guardia's Brooklyn following is lined up
solidly for Senator Charles G. Lock-
wood. the Republican coalition candi-
date for Comptroller, and have so noti-
ned him, Is taken to eliminate the
Aldermanic President from consideration
for the Comptrollers place. That would
leave only an independent race for the
denomination OF the Presidency or the
Board OF Aldermen on the Haskell ticket
open 70 him.
The probability that Judge Haskell
had that place In mind when talked
to was strengthened by the fact that
he was in conference with John j. Hal
ligan his present candid ate for Presi-
dent OF the Aldermen, when newspaper
men called.
