HISTORY OF THE
MINEOLA CASE

On April 10, 1925, during the
fur strike, two workers, Maur-
ice Maxim and Leo Franklin,
were arrested in Rockville Cen
ter on charge of attacking
Michael and Jack Barnett, who
ran a scab fur shop there.
The workers had been peace
fully picketing the shop, and
had taken no part in the alleged
assault, which was actually the
work of two English boys and
their friends who had a long
standing feud with the Barnett
brothers.
An English Feud.
One Of the Englishmen, Bernard
Basoff, was arrested a few days
later on information supplied by the
Barnetts, who are also English.
Basoff, who had worked in scab
shop before the strike, had come out
on strike with the union workers, so
the union undertook to defend him
in this case with Maxim and Franklin
when it came to trial in May, 1926.
Repudiates Confession.
When first arrested Basoff made
confession" which he said was
wrung from him by police brutality
and which he repudiated when he got
out of jail In this he stated that he
and Maxim and Franklin had been
sent by the union officials to make
the assault.
Conviction Reversed.
The union got the three men out
Of Jail, pending an appeal Of the case
to the Supreme Court, and Basoff
then went to the district attorney and
became an informer.
The union dropped him from the
appeal, and in the Supreme Court the
decision against Maxim and Franklin
was reversed and new trial ordered.
This is the trial just completed last
Friday.
Upon information" supplied by
Basoff, Ben Gold, Isadore Shapiro,
and Samuel Mencher were arrested as
principals in this case, in September,
1926, by detectives of Nassau Coun-
ty. In December, 1926, Charles
Weisenbloom, an Englishman and a
person unknown to union members
and seen by most of them for the
first time when he appeared in court
last week, came to the district at
torney and confessed he was impl-
Gated in the Rockville Center assault.
Another 'Informer."
II is not known how or why he con-
fessed; he claims he does not know
who made the complaint against him.
He was never represented by coun-
sci, and he is at present awaiting
sentence as result of his confession
of guilt. He substantially corrobor-
ated Basoff's confession"
In March, 1927, upon identified

Philip Lenhardt, Joseph Katz, Oscar
Mileaf, George Weiss and Martin
Rosenberg were arrested.

efficient basis The bill proposed for law in this
state is designed to adjust banking facilities more
wisely to the need and legitimate demand for
such facilities.
Taken in the large way, and through the
years, the best banking protection for every
body concerned is embodied in honest competent
bankers, conducting their business along the
lines of sound banking principle and wel-attest-

generous margins of safety in all their trans
actions; bankers who are not placed in the posi-

Banking, like agriculture, has had stiff test
since the war in the northwest. The worst is
over for both of them, and both are turning to
sounder methods as policies of the future. The
main burden of improvement is up to bankers and

One of the best suggestions made by Cover
nor Christensen in his recent inaugural address
was that during the liquidation of a closed
bank, reports should be published from time to
time in order that the depositors, who are the
real owners of its assets, may know what is
being done with their property. Much discon-
tent could be averted If provision were made
for more publicity" Nearly two years ago the
Capitol National Bank of st. Paul closed its
doors owing thousands Of depositors. During
all this intervening period these depositors have
been kept in ignorance Of when they might re-
|ceive dividends or what was being accomplished
in the way of liquidation. It was the general
expressed opinion when the bank closed it would
pay one hundred per cent on the dollar. But
considerable of its assets are in Montana and
North Dakota farms which all realize will not be
readily turned into cash. Some sort of publish
led statement, however, would go long way IN
