kalman Mindszenthy, foreign eX-
change and steamship agent, of Hall

yesterday with Chief of County De-
tectives Ferd A. David from Ind

with alleged tieecing of funds en-
trusted to him by patrons tor trans
mission to Europe. AT the county
jail this morning, Mindszenthy
speaking to a reporter of the Evening
News attributes his present difficult
ties to the venture in organizing a
bank which was to be known as the
Perth Amboy National Bank.
THE first step 1 shall take now, !"
Mindszenthy said, 'is to start a suit
for $4,000 against Harry Connor

proposed banking enterprise, because
he failed To live up to his agreement

Among the organizers of the f.
nancial institution" Mindszenthy
continued, were Leonard Zaremba,
John Kozusko, Steve Bujnowski, Da-
vid Wilentz and another. However,
1 expect today to be released on $5,-

T|CE ANSWERED
BY FORGOTSON
Police Recorder Brands Coun-
CiIman'S Move at So. AM
boy as Cheap Politics
A u DIT CONTROVERSY
Says Matter Has Been Taken
up With State Motor We
hicIe Commissioner

SOUTH AMBOY, June IA
Branding the move of Councilman
Edwin l.. Tice in refusing to vote
for the payment of the audit bill
at the council meetlng on Tuesday
nigh as cheap politics, Police JUS
tice Reuben Forgotson, in an inter-
view today with the Evening News
correspondent. told where he stood
in the attack made upon him by
Councilman Tice.
One of the reasons given by Mr..
Tice for refusing to vote for the
audit bill of $1,000, as submitted by
Braverman & Smith, of Perth AM
boy, was that the audit had not
been completed in view of the fact
that the books of Mr.. Forg gotson ha1
not been inspected. Mr.. Tice point-
ed out that Mr.. F'orgotson owed the
state vehicle department $142 for
fines and then read a letter from
Attorney General Thomas F. Nc
Gran to the effect that If the bill
was not settled at once action would
be started against the police justice.
Mr.. Tice said if Mr.. Forgotson owsd
the state $142 there was no telling
how much he might owe the city
unless the books were audited.
In his interview today Mr.. For
gotson declared that he does not
owe the state the s142 as alleged
by Mr.. Tice, and showed the co..
respondent a receipt he had received
frcm Commissioner William L. Dill
for the money. The receipt was
dated May IL.
H said he had told Tice long
hnfnrn tho ranntinpD nf tho pnIInnn
on Tuesday night that he did not
owe the state $142, as it had bean
all settled up He branded Tices
NOV as Cheap politics"
IT looks as if Tice is trying TO
discredit my character" said Mr.
Forgotson. and then he referred %
the certiorari proceedings pending
AGAINST his appointed to office for 4
period of five years beginning last
December, and said: "They have no
case against me and are trying to
bring out a lot of mud to weaken
my case
Continuing he declared that the
reason given by Mr.. Tice for not
voting for the audit bill was a
mirhty flimsy political excuse to get
out of paying $1,000 for the city
audit for which the council had con-
tracted.
II rather surmised Tice would
use this means for political propa-
ganda in an attempt to weaken the
Democrats chances to again elect a
member of the council in the first
ward The Republicans are doing
all in their power to obtain control
of the council next year and in nv
opinion they will stop at nothing to
further their end" said Mr.. For
gotson in ending the interview.
