Roosevelt Names Lawyers
to Analyze Mayors
Defense.

BIZ United Press
ALBANY, N. Y, June 14.-Gov-
ernor Franklin d. Roosevelt has APP
pointed John E. Mack and Martin
Conboy to help him analyze tes-
timony Of Mayor James J. Walker
before the Hofstsdter committee
concerning his fitness for Office.
Mack is a former Democratic SUI
preme court justice in Duchess
county, and was an attorney in the
Stillman divorce case. Conboy, also
a Democrat, is leading New York
attorney.
Assistance of the attorneys, 3"
Roosevelt declared, applies only to
digest and analysis of the testi-
mony, and not in any way to max
ing Of decisions which are, Of course,
an executive duty Of the. Governor
sitting in quasi judicial capacity"
Block Enters Protest
In the same announcement of
his selection of advisers Roosevelt
explained that charges had been
filed against the mayor by Dem
ocratic group, and that these would
be studied with the transcript of
testimony submitted by Samuel
Seabury, Hofstadter committee coun-
SCI, as private citizen.
The independent charges against
the mayor asked his removal for
'prodigious inefficiency and mall
feasance in office
In connection with the Walker
case, Paul Block, publisher, Monday
protested to Seabury against a
wholly unwarranted inference"
regarding him in the analysis of
evidence against the mayor. 1t
was Block who financed joint
stock account with Walker which
yielded the mayor gross profit of
approximately $250,000.
Justice" wrote Block, should
prompt you to amend your state
ment to Governor Roosevelt insofar
as this inference to me applies. You
should know that my joint account
with Mayor James j. Walker was
opened and conducted solely be-
cause of my many years friendship
with him as an individual, and not
as the mayor of New York.
Expected No Favors
'You should know that expected
and received no favors from the
mayor or the administration, and
that any inference that my motives
were for personal profit is unwar-
ranted, llniustif1ed and untruthful."
Seabury's charges submitted to the
Governor cited the fact that Block
was financially interested in cor
poration making tile, later favorably
reported for use in subway construc-
ton.
You know as we'll as I that I
opened this account nine months be-
fore l had any interest in the Boyer
company" Block wrote. you know
as we'll as l that it never manufac-
tured for sale, or did it sell any tile
to the city or any subway constrac-
tor or to any one else" he said.
Block said Seabury knew that he
sold his interest in the company as
soon as he learned it was negotiating
for sale for subway construction pur-
poses.

First American Iron Work.

In 1841 G. W. Scranton Of Oxford,
n J., attracted by the rich deposits
Of iron and coal in the Luzerne valley,
Pennsylvania, bought a tract Of land
there and established iron works. He
was later Joined there by s. T. Scran-
ton. w. q. Dodge, director in the
Erie Railroad company, who knew the
Scrantons, conceived the idea Of hav-
ing the Scrantons make rails for the
Erie railroad. The company was hav-
ing difficulties in getting rails from
England, and the cost was excessive.
A contract was made with the Scran-
tons to furnish $4,000 tons of rails at
$40 ton, which was about half the
cost Of the English rails. Dodge and
others advanced the money to pur-
chase the necessary machinery, and
the rails were ready for delivery In
the spring Of 1S47.

Suppress Emotion and
Live Long. Saws Doctor

The very best way to lengthen your
days. according to Doctor Grille, head
Of the Cleveland clinic, Is to live with
out emotion. Love and hate "injure
the bodily organs, and lay the founda-
lions Of such diseases as diabetes,
high blood pressure and heart dis
ease"; whereas, mere selfishness and
callousness, presumably, conduce to old
age-though whether they supply the
troops Of friends that Shakespeare
stipulates as the consolation for old
age is more doubtful proposition.
1t Is possible, of course, that Doctor
Grille is right, and that humanity
would live longer If it lived as coolly
as fish. It is by no means certain,
however, that those who repress their
emotions escape altogether from the
ills that flesh is heir to, and in any
event, some Of us may hold that life
on such terms is hardly worth living.

Steel Mill Operations
Maintain Output Gains

Contrary to the usual SeaSona
tendency operations at steel mills
extended from an average of II
per cent of capacity in Septem.
ber to 10 per cent in October
and continued to maintain this
level for the first three weeks
of November, the Federal Re-
serve Board announced in it's
monthly business review, today.
The volume of industrial pro-
duction, after increasing consid-
erably during August and Sep
tember, remained unchanged in
october. Factory employment
and payrolls reported for the
middle Of the month showed q
further increase. During Octo-
Der, as in the last three weeks
of September, wholesale COM
modify prices declined, and in
the first three weeks Of Novem-
ber, the general average was at
CIAC 1CVCI VI early SuuIu1cE.
Employment Gains.
The boards review showed that
employment in most manufac-
turing industries increased be-
tween the middle Of September
and the middle Of october. The
boards seasonally adjusted index
of factory employment showed
an advance from so per cent Of
the 1923-1925 average to 81 per
cent. At textile mills working
forces increased by considerably
more than the usual seasonal
amount and substantial increases
were also reported at steel mills,
lumber mills and car building
shops. In the canning and au-
tomobile industries there were
decreases in employment.
The textile industry, which had
shown a rapid expansion in
August and September, reported
a smaller consumption In raw
materials IN october, but the
The Washington times., 1932-11-25

output Of the finished product
was larger.
See Seasonal Decline
Shoe production, which also
had increased substantially in re-
cent months, showed a seasonal
decline. The production Of auto
mobiles in October declined
further to a new low level. At
coal mines activity continued to
increase rapidly until the middle
Of October, but since that time
seasonal reductions have been re-
ported.
From the middle of September
too the end of October the vol.
ume of freight traffic increased
by more than the seasonal
amount. After the middle of
October carloadings declined, re-
flecting chiefly seasonal develop
ments. The dollar volume of
department store sales increased
in october, also q seasonal de-
velopment.
Loans and investments of mem
her banks in leading cities de-
clined, the volume of outstanding
reserve bank credit showed little
change as did the demand for
currency, while money rates con-
tinued at the low levels.
