Hospital Job, First
Let for $500,000,
Costing City Million

Evidence to show that the city is
paying more than $1,O00,000 for the
construction of the Cumberland Street
Hospital, Brooklyn. which was to have
been built for $500,000 under the
original contract, was brought out yes
terday at the resumption of the in
vestigation of city contracts by the
Board of Estimate.
lgnatz Roth, a contractor, head of
the 174th Street Corporation, testified
that he had the present contract for
building the hospital. According to
Roth, the original contract was let for
S500000, and after the work had been
SIS per cent completed the contractor
defaulted. Roth said the 100000 pre-
sumably had been used up for that
part Of the work. He said he was then
given the contract on bid for 1868 900
to finish the job.
Roth charged that contractors
boosted their prices for work on the
building. One of these, he said, was
roofing contractor, by the name of
James, who originally agreed to do the
roofing on the entire building for ST.
900. When the new contract was given
to Roth lie asked $4,000 for the same
work, but finally agreed to do the work
for $4,000, Roth said.
Roth testified that he had agreed to
give Albert Winternitz, the original
contractor, 1000 for helping him pre-"
pare a contract for the completion of
the work

Senator's Request for Immunity
Clause to Aid in Uncover
ing Graft Also Is Opposed
From O stan correspondens

From Stat Correspondent
ALBANY, N. Y, Jan. 11.-Legislative
leaders are not inclined to grant the
Lockwood committee the broad powers
it has asked to enable it to investigate
the financial institutions and insur-
ance companies. These leaders also
are opposed to approving the immunity
clause which Senator Charles C. Lock-
wood declared on the floor of the Sem
ate would enable the committee to pro-
duce witnesses who would testify to
the manner in which $1,000,000 in graft
was to be split among certain Tam
many men and their friends interested
in the new courthouse site.
This immunity clause, which has
precedent in the Lexow committee in
vestigation and in other committees
appointed by the Legislature to ferret
out graft, is declared to be absolutely
necessary to the Lockwood committees
success in showing up the criminal
combines which have made building so
unnecessarily costly that tenants are
forced to pay exorbitant rents.
The principal reason given for the
powers Of the Lockwood committee to
permit it to investigate banks, trust
companies, insurance companies and
other financial institutions which lend
money on mortgages is that the clause
in the resolution offered by Senator
Lockwood is too sweeping.
a hearing has been asked on +he
Lockwood resolution by leading cl-i.
zens who want the Legislature to grant
the powers asked by Senator Lockwood
and Samuel Untermyer. 1t is said that
Mr.. Un.ermyer will appear before the
committee and give pertinent reasons
why the powers Of the Lockwood COM
mittee should be broadened in the man
ner outlined by Senator Lockwood.
The resolution is before the Senate
Finance Committee. 1t is not unlikely
that hearing will be held jointly by
this committee and the Assembly Wavs
and Means Committee. 1t is said here
that action will not be taken on The
request for an extension of the Lock-
wood committees powers until next
week.

Brindell Case
Court of Appeals Show
Cause Order Obtained
by Littleton Fails 10 Act
as a Stay TO Proceeding
Writ Returnable FRIDAY
Untcrmyer Says He Will Go
to Albany and Argue
Change of Venue Plea

The trial OF Robert P. Brindell, in
dicted labor leader and so-called czar
Of the building trades in this city,
started yesterday in the criminal
branch of the Supreme Court before
Justice John v. McAvoy.
The work of selecting a jury from
the special panel began after Brindelps
counsel had exhausted practically every
legal avenue to obtain a change Of
venue for him. Only few moments
before Justice McAvoy ordered the
trial to begin Martin W. Littleton,
chief counsel for Brindell, served
Samuel Untermyer, leading counsel for
the state, with an order to show cause
why stay should not be granted. This
order was issued by the Court OF APP
peals in Albany and is returnable FRI
day. Justice McAvoy, however, ruled it
did not act as a stay and ordered coun-
sci to begin the selection of a jury.
Despite the fact that this task was
pursued vigorously, there were but four
jurors selected when court adjourned at
$3.50 o'clock last night. Judging from
present prospects, the completion of
the jury by tonight is somewhat
doubtful.
Wire Chief Is Foreman
1t was not until late in the afternoon
session that the first juror was Sc
lected and agreed upon by both sides.
He is Ambrose c. Linnard, of rs East
Ninety y-second Street, a wire chief in
the employ of the New York Telephone
Company. and will be foreman Of the
jury. Mr.. Linnard was the fifteenth
talesman to be examined.
The other three Jurors were accepted
somewhat more quickly. 1t was $3.50
o'clock, however, before Juror No.
was agreed upon. lie is Philip Fl.
Senior, OF $50 Riverside Drive He is
financial secretary Of the Pilgrims
Memorial Fund Association, with which
he has been connected since his dis.
charge from the United States Army a
year ago.
George W. B. Falon, of 3s East Fifty
seventh Street, secretary of the City
accepted as the third juror, and his Sc
lection was followed shortly by that
of Thomas A, McKerrow, a motion pic
ture actor, of 4OS st. Nicholas Ave
nue.. He was the twent ninth tales
man to be examined. Immediately al
ter he had been accepted Justice Nc
Avoy ordered a recess until 10 o'cloc,.
against discussing the case with any
one.
At the time court adjourned seven
talesmen had been challenged for cause
and excused by Justice McAvoy, eleven

No Crime Wave i'm
City Since He Took
Office, Says Enrigght
Tells Truckmen Lawlessness
Has Not Increased During
His Administration; Smith
Praises Hylan Regime

Police Commissioner Enright told
members of the Merchant Truckmen's
Bureau, meeting last night in the as
sembly room of the Merchants Asso-
citation, in the Woolworth Building,
that there is not and has not been at
any time during his administration,
any semblance Of crime wave.
Ex-Governor Alfred E. Smith, who
made his official debut AS a business
man and truck operator at the meeting,
gave his unqualified Endorsement to the
official acts of Mr.. Enright and the
rest of the municipal administration.
He said:
at is a mean man who is willing to
stand up and say that New York is not
the best governed city in the United
States at this time, despite the OBJ
way Of the administration"
In support of his contention that
crime has not increased during his
regime as commissioner, Mr.. Enright
compared figures purporting to repre-
sent the total of crimes committed in
December, 1920, with those for the
same month in 1916 and 1917, when
the records or the department were
available for examination by the public.
He said:
"Jn the last month of 1920 there
were only 1,o35 crimes of the four
classes most feared by society. as.
against 1874 for the same month in
1917 and 1876 in 1916. But IN the
two years last mentioned. these greater
totals did not constitute a crime wave.

was rapidly getting beyond police con-

which the commerce of the city might

There is no doubt about his loving

You can understand. I think, why
the Doherty organization is one Of

Now let me tell you what Mr..
Doherty is scheduled to do to-day.
At the noon hour he will talk to
the members OF the Advertising Club
Of New York. He Will do his best
TO persuade them that they should
Join in the National Thrift Move
ment just as whole heartedlv and as
patriotically as they engaged in war
work
These business men - there are
over 1000 members of .he club
come in close contact with heads Of
big industrial groups. and Mr. Do
herty believes that the Thrift Move
ment, in order to take deem root.
must get a good start among the
workers employed in the great in
dustrial plants of the country.
Tonight at s:15 Mr.. Doherty will
address the New York Electrical
Society in the auditorium OF the
Engineering Societies Building, on
the subject:
"BENJAMIN FRANKLIN AND
MODERN IDEAS OF THRIFT"
Mr.. Doherty makes no preten-
sions to being public speaker, but
he feels it to be supreme duty on
his part to do all he can to spread
the GOSPEL OF THRIFT, which
he regards rs very vital 10 the per-
manent prosperity Of the Nation.
He just talks to his audiences. but
he talks straight from the shoulder
and very convincingly; they know
they have heard something to think
about very seriously when he has
finished talking to them.
His one and only ambition Is to
build Up during his lifetime an or
ganization that will live through
all time as strong contributing
force to the prosperity of America
and that will bring happiness and
Independence to his army of associ-
ate workers. which is rapidly in
creasing in number, because tho
Doherty activities in business inter-
ests are continually increasing.
He has already taught thousands
of his fellow-workers how mucn
Thrift means to their country and
to them, and they are so enthusi'
astic in supporting their leader that
they are joining him in teaching
other workers that the surest road
to comfortable and useful existencs
in the world of work is to continu-
ously practice Thrift.
