NIGHT LIFE KING
Harry RiChman Announces
Crusade to Save Gotham
Clubs From RUM
By HARRY FERGUSON
United Press STAG Correspondent


NEW YORK, Jan. 2S.--Leaders Of
New York's night life niarshaled
their battle lines Just before going
to bed this morning to oppose the
attempt Of Edward Mulrooney, po-
lice commissioner, to close all night
clubs at ! a. m, and make this
city a cleaner and sweeter place.
The commissioner, aroused by the
fact that Charles (Chink) Sherman
known as an intimate Of the late
Arnold Rothstein, was shot in the
Club Abbey promptly at sunrise the
other morning, announced Tuesday
that the time had arrived when, as
he phrased 1t, steps must be taken
He proposed that all clubs should
close at / a. m, even those which
have carried on until 6 a. m, and
ne further deposed that he would
take the matter up with the legis-
lature If necessary.
Plans Tilt with MuIrooney
Just before dawn today, Harry
Richman, an acquaintance Of Miss
Clara Bow Of Brooklyn and Holly
wood, interrupted ballad in the
Club hickman to announce that he
was eager to run tilt with Com
missioner Mulrooney.
In the middle of the handbook
floor of his night club on West
Fifty-sixth street. Richman hao
been discourslng with the assistance
Of an orchestra, on the pleasure OF
Wandering Down Vagabono
Road" He said you could take all
your cities, your gold and your
wealth; could take everything ,bul
leave me my health and let me
wander down a vagabond road"
He came off the vagabond road
almost instantaneously when Com
missioner Mulrooney's name was
mentioned.
Mistake in Judgment
Don't get me wrongP" warned
Mr.. Hickman, I'm a friend of Com
missioner Mulrooney and I think
he is a man of judgment. Unfor.
ttnately, his Judgment has lapsec
in this matter.
why, how can people go to the
theater and get to night club II
time for more than one dance il
we have to close at / o'clock?"
Mr.. Richman paused for an an.
swer, but since there was none
available, he continued:
''It will mean that clubs will have
to go out Of business and that the
night club life Of this town will bt
ruined. Think of It'll Ruinedl"
Even the orchestra paused tx
think Of it.
Belle Joins in Crusade
''I." continued MIR. Richman, "wil
lead a crusade against this move
Sword in hand, I will fight it to the
end"
From other sources came the NUT
ter Of discomfort. Mile. Belle Liv-
ingstone, author, artist and one
time possessor of the ''nost poetic

Birmingham and Coast passenger train, shot a railway postal clerk and escaped with two consignments of registered mail was sought by au- thorities of this section today.

 Prather was alone in the car at the time. He was discovered by a porter who heard the shot and was removed to a hospital at Moultrie, three miles north of Merrillville. Physicians said the wound was not serious. "The bandit apparently knew about the packages" the clerk told authorities. He seemed to know ex- act1y where to find them"

The tax commissioner eX- plained the provisions of the tax delinquency law, and the necessity of arming the local tax collectors with an urge upon the taxpayers for the prompt payment of their taxes.

 Reference to Section of the lien law was made by the speaker, because this provision. designed to give relief to the needy. is seldom if ever mentioned in public meetings where repeal of the 12 per cent penalty interest rate on delinquent taxes is advocated and because the present agitation for repeal is based
