to Solve Conversion
BY AL KAUFMAN
Times stan Correspondent

GAYLORD. Sept. 23-Gov
Kelly charged today that the New
Deal has failed 10 offer a solution
to postwar reconYersion problems
and said the only constructive
approach is being advanced by
Thomas f. Dewey, COP presi.
Dental nominee.
Appearing for his second cam
paign speech in the city bordering
his summer vacation home, Kelly
told a COP rally:
"If there was any doubt as to
the wisdom of holding an cleo
ton during this war year, that
doubt has been dispelled by the
marvellous job Gov. Dewey Is
doing for the people Of the
United States in conducting an
active campaign.
ALREADY, with the campaign
only nicely under way, he has
carried q message Ia the people
that has produced In Washing
ton n sudden desire Ia do many
things that should have been
done long ago"
BYRNES PLAN RE-HASH
He called ByrneS' reconversion

re-hash prompted only by the
peoples demands for action in the
postwar era.
cit presumed 10 he a sOlu-
ton X e4 Y said, but as
matter of fact IL was nothing of
the sort. IL combined many
old government reports, gave
absolutely no indication Of solu-
tions and pointed 10 no future
action in reconyersiOn."

III should be noted that the down.

streetcar traffic accident rate IA

Referring 10 the reports aSSer-
ton that Streetcar accident rate
in 1913 was "the worst in the past

ditions in the first two months.
He pointed TO statements in the

SECRECY AT STAKE

An issue in the proceedings Is
whether the grand Jury must
make public the questions and an
swers which led 10 the contempt
proceedings.
In sentencing Slattery, who is a
vice president of the Michigan
National Bank. Judge Carr held
that the banker had given eYasiye
and contradictory replies and
withheld information from the
grand jury.
He did not divulge the nature
Of the questions.
William Henry Gallagher, De-
troit attorney, retained by Stat
terry. asked the supreme court 10
review the sentence and the ma
ture of the questions and answers.
Kim Sigler, special grand jury
prosecutor. filed a return yester-
day in which he contended the
contempt proceedings had been
legally adjudicated under the
processes set up by law.
DEMANDS SECRECY
He declared the nature Of the
questions was such that they
should not be divulged at this
time under any circumstances.
Sigler told the high court that
10 make the questions and an
svers public would interfere
with and jeopardize the grand
jury's work"
Slattery. the special prosecutor
said, avoided disclosing TO the
jury important information within
his knowledge and without giving
good and sufficient reason.
AS in the several unsuccessful
appeals heretofore from the ac-
tons of the Ferguson and Carr
grand juries, Gallagher has raised
In this case the question of the
constitutionality of the one-man
grand jury act and the legality of
a judge acting in a dual capacity.
AWAITS COURT
After filing his answer, Sigler
waited near the court for more
than an hour while the four
judges debated the petition for an
appeal. With him were Victor c.
Anderson, county prosecutor. and
II. II. Warner, assistant special
assistant prosecutor.
Chief Justice Walter Fl. North
handed down the order fixing Dec.
! for arguments, pointing out that
four Of his associates on the bench
were absent yesterday.
Sigler did not oppose Slattery's
request for release under bond.

lords. forbidden by presidential
decree from raising rents or ter
minating leases, are trying DIES
perately TO drive tenants out so
they can get more money on new
leases. Knowing that an apart
ment that rented a year ago for
$40 a month now commands $40,
landlords have put devils, a
type Of plug, into water pipes to
reduce the flow to a trickle. Some
cut off the water entirely except
for two hours a day. In better
class apartments, janitors were
instructed not to make minor re-
pairs or clean halls and stair
ways. The embattled tenants re-
taliated by sweeping the halls
themselves. They also appealed
10 the government which made
It illegal to tamper with or re-
strict the flow Of water to apart
ments.
