COURTS DECIDE
FNEW YORK MAYOR
Will KEEP HIS JOB
Legal Exceptions to Roosevelt
Rulings Seen as Basis
For Appeal
CASE ALREADY IS At BAR
Steps to Halt Executive Hear
ing Already Taken by
Walker Supporters

Albany, N. Y, Aug. l3.-(R)-The
courts, and not Governor Roosevelt!
may have the last word in the Wal
ker case.
That the defense intends to turn
to the courts If the governors de-
cision Is against Mayor Walker ha;
been indicated by the legal excep-
tons taken TO two of Roosevelt's rul-
ings at the hearing in the executive
chamber on the charges against the
mayor.
The defense has challenged the
governors right to scrutinize the
mayors first term and also his ad-
mission Of Hofstadter committee find
ings as evidence. John j. Curtin
Walkers attorney. took exceptions
Friday on both these grounds.
There was no hint as to how such
an appeal would be taken.
Legal steps to halt the hearing on
the Seabury charges against the
mayor already have been taken By
George Donnelly. a home-rule advo-
cate, on the ground that the governor
has no authority to sit in judgment. II
is based on the fact that the state con
stitution does not say specifically thai
the governor shall have the power t.
remove the mayor of city. The
constitution says merely that cities
shall have the power to adopt local
laws relating. among other things. to
the mode of selection and removal
of their officials.
However, a special provision of the
New York City charter. believed based
on this part of the constitution. bring
the mayor and the commissioner OF
police under the law as it relates to
the removal Of county officials, on
which the constitution is very spe-
cific. This has never been ruled on
by the courts.
While the governors counsel holds
the executive has the authority to
sit in judgment on the mayor, the
challenge to this right has already
resulted in the governor agreeing to
withhold his decision until after the
supreme court meets August 10 to
rule on the question.
Donnelly merely secured an order
calling on the governor to show
cause why he should not be re-
strained. There was no restraining
writ issued and the governor coule.
have gone ahead and announced his
decision prior to the show cause hear
ing, but he agreed to withhold it un-
til that date as matter Of judicial
courtesy. He did not indicate how
soon he might make his decision after
Aug. 10 or what action he might take
should the court ruling be against
him.
The hearing was In recess Saturday
until Monday. Governor Roosevelt
was in Hyde Park and Mayor Walker
had gone to New York. Mrs. Walker,
who has been i'll, remained at her
Albany hotel. The strain of the first
days hearing Thursday. which she
attended, was more than she had ex-
pected.
So far, the mayor has denied fatty
that he accepted money from the
Equitable Bus company for Euro
pean trip; has said that he did not
know when he received reliance
bronze and steel bonds, or that the
company made traffic posts pur-
chased by the city, and said there
was no hidden reason behind Paul
Blocks stock deal which netted the
mayor $246.000.
