Norwalk Manufacturer Aids Police In Bringing Internal Revenue Man
 Into Court On Bribery Charges

Norwalk, June I.-Industrial circles in this city have been in the whirl of a neat scandal which came to a head the past week in the conviction by a federal grand jury of David A. Cole, internal revenue inspector of the New York district, for having on Decem- Der 30, 1922, solicited a bribe of $I5,- GOO from Charles H. Harris, Norwalk glass manufactures, to affect Coles report on the 1917 income tax report of Harris. The conviction was Ob- tained before Federal Judge Augustus N. Hand by William J. Willard, of U. s. District Attorney William Hay wards staff. Mr. Harris, who is widely known in Norwalk and else where, was highly complimented by government officials upon coming to the front and aiding in the prosecu- ton of Cole.
 In the indictment, 1t was also all legged that on January 4, 1923, Alex ander Aderer, accountant for Harris, was interviewed by Cole who agreed to take $I2,ooo instead of $I5,ooo for a favorable report, which would have relieved Harris from paying approx imately $6o,ooo which Cole alleged was still due the Government. It was dlSO lCSllAGd lhdl Ol Jc1Iuoiy ,, lS~O1 Aderer passed Cole $500 in marked bills.
 Cole was not convicted on the last count because these marked bills were not found in his possession by Gov ernment agents who entered the room and found them in an envelope on a table. Upon the other two counts, he was held guilty. and will be sen fenced by Judge Hand. The penalty

may be from three to six years.
 It is all the more noteworthy ln view of the fact that it has heretofore been considered almost impossible to get convictions for bribery where the money used in the bribe was not ac- tually found in the possession of the defendant The case was one of the most hotly contested in the annals of the New York Federal courts.
 Cole wrote to me on last Novem- Der 10, stating that my income tax was incorrect" said Mr. Harris in telling the story of the case. "He asked for a social interview. On view. We had luncheon at the Prince George hotel in New York city. On that occasion, he demanded $I 5000 cash to correct or fix his report. stalled him off.
 "On New Years day, 1 got in con tact with government officials at Washington and reported Coles of fer. Arthur Madden, an inspector, was assigned to the case. Another meeting with Cole, whose right name is said to be 'Cohen,' was held at the Waldorf-Astoria. Under the direction Ot the government, 9S,0OO III 1ldI keu bills were turned over to the inspect or. When the government agents entered the room, the bills were found on a table"

An Investment Worth Looking Into

In an advertisement printed else
where the Hamilton Car Co. offers
stock in this growing concern upon
terms which should appeal to invest
ors generally, but more particularly
to the owners of business property in
Newark. When the proposed en-
largement of the works is completed
the capacity Of the plant will be more
than doubled, and the yearly pay roll
will amount to half a million dollars.
The men who own property in the
business district of the city will un-
doubtedly be more directly benefited
than anyone else, as increase in popu-
lation and in manufacturing will en-
hance the value of their holdings
more than any other class of citizens,
and these men should be the ones to
boost every safe enterprise, and not
endeavor to pass it on to the retail
merchants who rent their property.
The Chamber of Commerce and
banking institutions of the city con-
slider these stocks a safe and de-
sirable investment, and many of our
business men have purchased them
and are assisting in their sale.
