Adam A. Cross, former police inspector,
to take charge of the pier guards on
the docks Of the italian Line on the
recommendation of Police INSPECTOR
Dominick Henry was referred to by
members of the committee yesterday.
While the record showed that Cross
nominally was in charge of the ex-
policemen employed to guard the piers,
it was testified that many of the men
were actually employed by Inspector
Henry himself. The committee mem
bers now point to letter sent to his
home office by Louis Costa, general
manager of the Scula Americana
branch of the Pierce Line. which had
berthing arrangements with the Italian
Line at Piers sc and 81, North River.
Costa wrote to- his superors in Italy
that new method had been found to
remedy the lawlessness and pilfering
on the company's piers, which Anthony
r. Vachris, the head of the private de-
tective agency that had been previously
employed to do the watching, said was
due to refusal of the police to coop
crate.
In connection with the new arrange
ment,. Costa wrote that the then police
captain of the Goth Precinct, Captain
Samuel Bolton, proposed to replace the
present watchmen by pensioned police
agents, whom he considered RESPONSE
bic, expert, practical and authoritative,
wearing special uniforms, authorized to
carry revolvers and having the same
legal privileges as those given to the
police, while others have not

money had been paid directly or in
directly for their promotions, or for
any assistance in civil service exami-
nations to any civil service examiner
or any other person. If so, all de-
tails were required. The question
naires were to be sworn to before a

Gathering and Message
Will Be Drafted To BE
Sent to Washington
Ledoux to Stage Concert
Community Sing Will Be
Held on Central Park
Mall Tomorrow Night

Plans for aiding men and women out
of employment continued yesterday
with increased vigor, and those en-
gagged in the various measures to meet
the situation expressed the belief that
a great Improvement in conditions
would soon be seen.
The predicament Of unemployed
women will be revealed by the women
themselves at mass meeting in
Union Square at o'clock this after
noon. The meeting was arranged by a
committee of which Miss Jeanette
Rankin, of the National Consumers
League, is the head, at the request Of
group of women who said they de-
sired to give expression to their views.
1t was announced Thursday that the
meeting would be in Bryant Park, hut
yesterday the location was changed
when the Park Commissioner suggested
Union Square. According to Miss
Rankin the main purpose Of the meet
ing is to draft resolutions concerning
the unemployment situation as it af-
fects women, which will be taken to
Washington by Miss Mary Van Fleet,
delegate to the conference convening
on Monday.
AS climax to his campaign in be-
half of the jobless, Urbain Ledoux an
nounced that concert and community
sing would be held on the Mall in
Central Park at o'clock tomorrow
evening. The affair will be under the
direction of Harry Barnhard, who con-
Quoted similar concert on Boston
Common, where Ledoux first introduced
concert was primarily for the unem-
ployed, but that every one would be
welcome. A band Of twenty-eight
pieces will play and Bernhard will
lead the crowds in the singing of
hymns and folksongs.
II think we are we'll over the top."
said Ledoux, in summing up his davis
work, which included the distribution
of 1880 meal tickets on the water
front and in the parks. Everything is
going we'll. organizations are putting
their machinery into motion and the
public conscience is thoroughly awak-
ened. The community sing at Central
Park will be the supreme coordination
OF effort. There is nothing like music
and song to lift up the heart and bring
renewed hope"
Ledoux said he would depart to-mor
row night for Buffalo to continue his
efforts to relieve the needs of the
unemployed.
AS result Of the activities of
Ledoux, the Salvation Army, the Mu-
nlclpal Aid Bureau and other agencies
the plight of hungry men in the parks
has been greatly alleviated, it was said
yesterday by those engaging in welfare
work. While Ledoux was distributing
meal tickets, Morris KeeLittman, of Al
West forty-second Street, appeared in
Bryant Park with 500 sandwiches.
which were eagerly received.
Under the direction of Major Ed

Army, work was begun in equipping
the building at 335 West Sixteenth

British Veteran Finds No
Job Here, but Aid Aplenty

Percy Hooking, his wife Marcelle
and their two infant children sail for
France to-day on the White Star liner
Olympic after experiences in the
United States which neither Mr.. nor
Mr9. Hooking is likely to forget.
The family landed in New York
three weeks ago penniless. To-day
they are en- route to Cherbourg, where
a position awaits Hooking. The ex-
penses of the trip are being betrayed
by the Salvation Army and New York
State Headquarters Of the American
Legion. The White Star Line officials
granted half-fare rate.
Hooking, British subject, is vet
eran of the American Expeditionary
Forces. He served overseas with the
305th Infantry. His wife was Marcelle
Noye, French girl. During his stay
here Hooking was unable to obtain
steady work and the family suffered
severely. When assured of work in
France he applied to various organiza-
tions for aid and eventually was sent
on his way by the organizations
named.
Hooking refused aid for himself and
is working his way across as a coal
passer aboard the same ship.

HirshGeld Cleared
Of Lib Ell Charge
By Order of Court
Justice McAvoy Tells Jury
That Statements Given
Publication by Commits
sioner Were Privileged

The indictment against Commissioner
of Accounts David Hirshfeld, charging
him with the publishing of criminal
libel, in that the Commissioner "con-
trived TO expose to hatred, ridicule and
obloquy" Assistant District Attorney
James L. Smith and former Governor
Charles S. Whitman, was dismissed by
d jury yesterday In the Criminal Branch
of the Supreme Court on direction Of
Justice John V. McAvoy.
The alleged libel was published May
20, 1920. 1t consisted in statements
made to Commissioner Hirshfeld while
he was conducting hearing in his
official capacity as Commissioner of
Accounts. The prosecution rested after
two witnesses had been examined,
ert d. Manlcy and Frank Schwab, q
reporter of the New York City News
Association. The selection of jury
occupied only an hour. Colonel Will
liam Rand, special Deputy Attorney
General, prosecuted, and former Judge
w. W. K. Olcott, with Nelson Olcott,
former Assistant District Attorney,
represented Commissioner Hirshtield.
In his address to the jury Colonel
Rand explained that the prosecution
of Police Inspector Dominick Henry
and other police officers was being con-
Quoted by Assistant District Attorney
James f. Smith when Commissioner
Hirshfeld began an independent in
vestigation. Colonel Rand said the in
vestigations carried on by Assistant
District Attorney Smith might be con-
sidered to have reflected on the city
administration and the Police Depart
ment. Mr. Hirshfield in his own in
vestigation had attempted to turn the
tables on Smith. TIE evidence alleged
to have been given against Smith and
Whitman, and which had been pub
lished on the initiative of Hirshfeld,
undoubtedly was defamatory, Colonel
Rand declared.
Commissioner Hirshfeld. testifying
in his own defense, said that on the
day the two witnesses, Friedman and
toned, were to testify before him
he sent word to reporters in the
Municipal Building advising them of
the hearing. Subsequently Schwah
visited his Office and he told Schwab
what Friedman and Goldman had testi-
fed to.
Throughout his testimony Commits
sioner Hirshfeld laid stress on the
fact that this was an official public in
vestigation, differing in no way from
other Investigations conducted by his
Office. The testimony, he said, was a
public document, and as such open for
inspection.
On completion of the testimony
Judge Olcott moved that the jury be
directed to acquit. Justice McAvoy
granted the motion, on the ground that
the testimony complained of had been
taken at an authorized public hearing.
and as such was privileged under the
statute.

DAY, Attorney Alleges

NHoLHer cHapCer was written yeSter-
day into the troubled history of Domi.
nick Henry, police inspector in charge
OF the Bronx inspection district. The
inspector appeared before Justice
Aaron j. Levy, in the Third Municipal
Court. In answer to suit brought by
William E. Murphy. who was of counsel
during the inspectors perjury trial
last year.
Mr.. Murphy is suing for services
rendered in preparing the case on ap-
peal that resulted in the granting OF
certificate OF reasonable doubt, which
in turn brought the inspectors re-
lease from the Tombs on bail. pro-
cedures that were concluded happily
when Attorney General Newton had the
charges dismissed.
II was on Thursday that Francis
Gilbert, attorney for the Italian Line,
testified before the Meyer Legislative
committee that $500 had been given
to Inspector Henry, then in the Tombs,
to "gratuities, pier account" Yester-
day the inspector went on the stand
before Justice Levy and told how he
had paid $500 to Mr.. Murphy, who was
one of the lawyers trying to get him
out of the Tombs.
AS thoughts Of those melancholy
days and of the statement he charged
Mr.. Murphy with making to Mrs.
Horny that chances for a successful
appeal looked pale and she had best
prepare for the inspector remaining in
Jail, came to his mind yesterday on
the witness stand, tears fell from the
n or 1xr
vanber, MIR. Murphy said to reporters,
that Inspector Henry was down weep
ing in his Office because, he alleged, he
was friendless, penniless and alone.
Appeal Made in Case
Mr.. Murphy, whose Office is at 305
Broadway, said yesterday that after
one charge and convicted on the per-
jury charge, both he and W. Bourke
Cochran, who were appearing for
Henry, wanted to quit. Mr.. Murphy
said he had collected his fees and ex-
penses for that part of his work.
Henry at first agreed to seek other
counsel, but later asked Mr.. Murphy
to prepare his case on appeal.
To this Mr.. Murphy said he con-
sented and set to work getting the
minutes together for printing and FL
ing ana looking a1Cer other details.
For this, MIR. Murphy says, he has re-
ceived no pay.
Inspector Henry testified on the
stand that he had paid $500 to Mr..
Murphy early in January Of this year,
and believed that this cleared his
financial indebtedness to counsel. The
inspector said further, as he wept, that
not only had Mr.. Murphy made the re-
mark to Mrs. Henry about the diff
culties facing an appeal, but friend
of his had received a bill made out to
S M Murphy denied frehteninp Ishteg Mrs.
Henry. The making out of the bill to
the inspectors estate, he said, was a
clerical error.
At the conclusion of the testimony
Justice Levy informed counsel that he
would reserve decision.
Inspector Henry was convicted on
