LA GUARDIA STANDS BY
PAIGE APPOINTMENT

NEW YORK, Jan. (CNA)-
Mayor LaGuardia said this week
he would insist on his appointment
elevating Myles A. Paige, Harlem
progressive, from the Magistrates
bench to the Special Sessions
Court, despite the opinion ex-
pressed in legal circles that Paige
could not take the job because he
was not a resident of Brooklyn,
where the court vacancy exists.
In answer to an inquiry by City
Hall reporters, the Mayor wrote
across the typed question a Ger
man word which means keep your
shirts on"
Later, in simple English, the
Mayor indicated he would insist or
the Paige appointment even if he
had to circumvent the law.
