GANGSTERS SEEKING
 TO ASSIST BERGER
Man Held in New Haven Wanted in New York
 Staying

New Haven. July 1 CUP)-Two Of three New York gangsters, one of whom was shot to death by a po- liceman in an attempted holdup yes terday. were trying to raise money for the defense of Jake Berger, a comrade, now awaiting trial here, police declared today.
 Police of the 2Sth New York pre- cinct at 229 West 123d street in- formed local authorities that Berger was believed wanted in connection with a holdup staying in New York two years ago. Berger's bonds were raised to $l5,OO0. He is in county jail.
 Police Captain James White, who returned from Investigating New York angles of the case, said Ser gers pals apparently were trying 10 raise enough to bail him out be- fore New York authorities learned of his capture.
 Alexander Friedensen, one of the New York trio, had attempted to ob- tain Berger's release here after the latter was arrested June 14 on charges Of theft of an automobile, theft Of Connecticut license plates and possession of concealed weapons. He testified he hired the car from q rental agency and loaned 1t to Berger.
 Berger was detained however, and Friedensen returned to New York. Yesterday Friedensen and Fred Rocco were captured and David Fuchs shot to death when they at- tempted to hold up a Park avenue 1 fruit stores

 In the formation of land valua- ton committee, experts on real es- tate, builders and bankers are en- listed for the work. The city is di- vided into zones for convenience and hearings are held to determine the sentiment of property owners regarding proposed values for pur-

 It was estimated that Esperanto now has at least 3,00O,0OO advocates throughout the world.

Rev. P. J. Pashkiewych of This City Involved
 in Alleged Violation of Prohibition Law Bishop Mrzena Also Implicated By Inquiry.
New York Investigators Declare Amount of Wine Taken for SacramentaI Purposes Far in Excess of Needs-LOcaI Parish Independent.

Rev. Peter J. Pashkiewych, pastor of St. Mary's Ukrainian church on Winter street, indicted on a charge of perjury in connection with a grand jury inquiry into sacramental wine Withdrawals by Bishop Charles Mrzena of the CzechosIovakian Or thodox Catholic church of the United States, today denied com plicityl declaring his church and congregation to be independent of Bishop Mrz mas jurisdiction. If am involved then many others are involved Father Pashkiewych de- clared.
 The indictments were returned in New York city yesterday by fed eral grand jury. The bishop and the local priest are included among IS charged with conspiracy to violate the prohibition law, with the addi- 'ionaI charge of perjury preferred against Father Pashkiewych.
 The grand jury has also charged the New York administrative office with non-feasance and laxity. The inquiry disclosed that in 1929. be tween 10000 and 5N,OOO gallons of wine had been withdrawn from wholesale houses for sacramental purposes although. 1t is contended. only small fraction of this amount could have been used legitimately.
 Charge Against Priest
 The charge is made that the To- cal priest swore before the grand iury that 1900 gallons had been withdrawn by him for sacramental purposes, but that his actual uses were found 10 he much less than that amount.
 Bishop Mrzena is charged with instructing priests to apply for large quantities of wine, then turn the surplus over to him. It was also charged that many foreign priests were unable to obtain wine for !egi- innate uses without first going to the bishop and making withdrawals through, were advised by the bishop was found, the report states, that many foreign priests encountered rcd tape when applying for wine Tor church uses and when they foundsit impossible to get their orders through, were advised b ythe bishop that if they signed orders for large quantities their actual needs would be filled and the surplus taken by the bishop for the missions, etc.
 Denies Being Bishops Secretary
 The local priest, it is alleged, was secretary to the bishop before he en tered upon his parochial duties here. This was emphatically denied by

 The mayors decision to appoint committee does not dispose of the question of whether appraisals will be made by an outside firm or by the board of assessors, the member ship of which has not been changed by the mayor since he took office.
