Piracti Requests
His Trial Be Moved
Out Of Baltimore
BY The As.oeiossd Press

BALTIMORE, Mar. 19.-Dom-
inic Piracci, biggest contractor
in the city's multimillion- dollar
parking garage program. today
asked that his trial on charges
Of conspiracy to defraud the city
be moved out Of Baltimore.
q. C. A. Anderson and James
s. Morrow, Piracci's lawyers
filed the removal petition as the
contractors trial was about to
begin this morning.
An immediate hearing on the
request was set before Criminal
Court judges.
The case of Piracci, accused
Of conspiring with six business
men and their companies in an
attempt to cheat the city. was
the second to get under way.
The first ended yesterday with
the conviction of Albert Haar
and Samuel Wink. operators OF
Baltimore Garages. Inc, on
similar charges involving $42.-
996.
Facing possible sentences of
10 years in prison and $4,000
fines. they were released on bail
pending a new-trial move.
Found Guilty.
Haar, Wink and their COM
pany were found guilty Of mis-
representing the cost of a A.
story garage they had built un-
der the city's program to induce
private construction Of off,
street parking in the downtown
area.
The arrangement called fol-
the city to lend operators up to
IS per cent Of construction costs
at low interest rates, provided
the operators put up the other
Is per cent.
Judges Emory H. Niles and
John T. Tucker found that Haar
and Wink falsely told the OFF,
Street Parking Commission
which approved the loans, the
garage would cost 1924, 900, more
than $4,000 above the actual
cost.
State Charges.
Instead of putting up Is per
cent of the total from their own
funds, the State commended. the
operators supplied only $1,000,
using $42,996 turned over to
them by Piracci to make up the
difference.
States Attorney Anselm So
daro said Piracci covered this
by initiating the cost of the ga
rage.
Haar testified the money from
Piracci was a loan to be repaid
after the exact cost of the ga
rage was determined. He denied
there was any intent to defraud
the city. arguing he and Wink
merely wanted to save on inter-
est rates.
Wink testified he only super
vised the operational end of the
business. leaving financial deci-
sions up to Haar.
