TWO MORE SLAYINCS
AS RESULT OF GANG
FEUD IN new YORK

New York, Oct. 5.-(AP)-Two muir
ders, another probably fatal shooting
in running gun battle between de-
tectives and gangsters, was the total
today in the gang warfare which
marked the first day of District At
torney Banton's new drive against
crime.
Police reported that at least two of
the shootings were the result of feud
between two rival East Side gangs
during the past few months which has
resulted in four murders.
Early this morning Irving Madonic,
taxicab driver, ran into the Rou-
manian tea and coffee house in Ell
bridge street, beseeching the proprie-
tress to hide him. At his heels came
two gunner who fired at him. Madon-
ic fell behind the counter where he
had taken refuge. He was dead be-
fore an ambulance could be called.
At the same hour Ignazo Pucio was
shot down on First avenue near 18th
street. He was rushed to Bellevue
Hospital and died there few minutes
later. His slayer calmly walked away,
disappearing down the street.
With his young wife and his nine
year-old son watching him from the
window of his Suffolk street home,
Meyer Lewis. a glazer. started down
the street for work. Two men Jumped
from a nearby doorway and fired six
shots. AS Lewis fell to the pavement
they ran and lost themselves in the
traffic.
Mrs. Lewis ran to her husband.
screaming out the names OF the men
she said had shot him. One Of the
names. the police said, was that OF
man who appeared at the coffee house
to view the body of Madonic at the
hospital when it was believed he was
diving. Mrs. Lewis declared that her
husband had not been away from home
during the early morning hours when
Madonic and Pucio were slain.
In the afternoon three detectives
driving on the lower West Side were
fired upon by five men in an automo-
bile who refused to stop at the detec-
tfves' command. The officers returned
the fire, wounding Michael Purezzo. the
driver of the fugitive car. He was
taken to St. Vincent's Hospital suffer-
ing from three bullet wounds. His
condition was said to be serious. The
other four men were caught after they
abandoned their car and ran. They
, were charged with felonioLs assault.
The police believed that two of to-
days shootings-the killing of Madon-
leo and the wounding of Lewis-re-
suited from the running feud between
two rival East Side gangs which had
previously led to three murders.
Madonic was said to be a friend of
Meyer Albert, who was killed last
May, IS days after his former friend,
Charles Rosenbaum. had been muir
dered by gunner. These shootings led
to the killing Of Morris Grossman,
hwhose body was found in the early
morning Of September In an oil
saturated sedan which had been set on
fire. He had been shot to death before
the fire was started.
The fact that one of the men named
by Mrs. Lewis as the assailant of her
husband had previously visited the
scene of the Madonic shooting caused
the police to believe Lewis was also
a victim of the gang warfare.
