Spellman of Manhattan. Mr. Spellman, reporting to the City Council as counsel of its housing committee, declared that "social desirability" never should be a gauge for the admittance of a tenant to a low-cost housing development and said only 98 of the 1,300 families that lived in the Williamsburg slum area cleared for the project had found homes In the new development.

A letter written April 29 by Alfred Rhelnsteln, Commissioner of Housing and Buildings, was quoted by the Councilman, Sees Little Benefit "Surely," Mr, Spellman said, "as far as the slum dwellers of that territory are concerned the building of an Immense development at a cost County Judge Thomas Downs In Long Island City today washed his hands of Michael Alex, 27, who five times has been tried for murder, all before the Judge. Two convictions were reversed by the Court of Appeals; twajurles disagreed and the fifth trial ended In a mistrial on May 17. When the Alex case appeared on Judge Downs' calendar again today, he put it over until September, with the announcement don't Intend to try that case again." Judge Downs suggested that since Alex Is also under indictment for murder In Manhattan, he might be tried over there. "If they're so anxious to have him In Manhattan, I suggest we might Matthiesens Plan Automobile Trip Mrs. Christina Matthlesen, mother of the late Charlotte Matthlesen, said today at her home, 41-04 78th Jackson Heights, Queens, that she and her husband, Fred, will leave on Wednesday for an auto mobile trip to Washington.

"We will be gone for a couple of days and will be back during next week end, said Mrs. Matthlesen. "It will do as both good. My husband became 111 at home on Saturday night as a result of strain since the death of our daughter, but he is better now. There Is nothing unusual about our plans.

We have not had a vacation in ten years." Donald Carroll, 16 years old, admitted he shot Charlotte, 18, at the Carroll home, 37-37 78th Jackson Heights, on March 24, last. He was acquitted by a Jury In county court, Long Island City, on the ground of insanity and was released from custody on Saturday, after psychiatrists reported that Carroll was a normal youth. Razing of structures on the site of the Red Hook low-cost housing project got off to a slow start today when a small crew of men attacked the dwelling at 71-73 Dwight as shown above. The work is expected to pick up momentum next week, when a bigger staff of workmen Is scheduled to report. (Eagle Staff photo.)

As darkness fell police admitted defeat and left the scene while Mrs. Anderson placed the bird's cage beneath the tree and baited It with tempting morsels of food. Yesterday morning, however, Mrs.

Anderson learned to her dismay that Tony spurned the food and spent the night In the tree. Christopher Thalman of 922 Cortelyou Road, a tree surgeon, suggested that he might bring the bird down by sawing off-the limb on which It was perched. He was given permission. Thalman got a saw and climbed the tree, keeping up a rapid-fire conversation with the bird. As he neared the limb on which Tony was perched the bird began calling him but Thalman refused to take offense and continued his work.

In a few minutes the limb was sawed through and crashed to the ground with Tony clinging to it. Mrs. Anderson rushed to the stunned bird and, after ascertaining that he was not injured, placed him in the cage. "Well, I'll be damned," commented Tony.

Jersey City officials had already cancelled all police leaves for tonight. Mayor Frank Hague and Col. Hugh Kelly, secretary of Gov.

Harry A. Moore of New Jersey, indignantly denied the truth of the Nazi leader's announcement, which did not reveal the source of the reported invitation. Experts 100,000 to March "No Nazis will be allowed," said Colonel Kelly, who also i.r chairman of Veterans Law and Order Committee which has been leading the battle to prevent speeches by Thomas, Representatives O'Conneil and Bernard and others. "No one but Americans carrying the Stars and Stripes will be permitted in the parade which is for patriotic purposes," he declared. Colonel Kelly estimated 100,000 would take part In the demonstration, starting from Harrison and Bergen at 8 p.m.

and winding up at Journal Square, from which Norman Thomas was "de-1 ported" when he tried to make a speech several weeks ago. Mayor Hague was expected to lead the marchers, with Governor Moore, United States Senator John Milton and Representatives Mary T. Norton and Edward J. Hart in the' reviewing stand. It was said veterans, civic, fraternal, industrial and some labor groups were scheduled to participate.

In Newark, city commissioners were sharolv divided in their re- Park Saturday night when Thomas was pelted with eggs and cucumbers and a speaking platform was dashed from under him, While Public Safety Director Michael P. Duffy ordered a "thorough investigation to ascertain whether there was any laxity on the part of police," a fellow commissioner, Joseph Byrne announced he would not in the future grant a permit for an outdoor meeting at which Thomas would speak. Mayor Meyer C. Ellenstein replied to Thomas' demand for "guaranteed protection" for another meeting that as "nominal chairman" of the commission "I have nothing to do with the issuance of permits and I have no control over the police." Demanding an apology for his treatment, the former Socialist Presidential candidate charged Ellenstein was "in cahoots" with Mayor Frank Hague of Jersey City. "I'm no more in cahoots with him (Hague) than Mr.

Thomas is," Ellenstein said. "The temper of Newark veterans and other citizens was shown last and it would be dangerous to allow Mr. Thomas to speak here at any time," said Byrne, who ran for office last year on a ticket whose, platform praised Jersey City's administration. 6 Guardsmen Hurt As Wall Collapses Garden City Park, June 6 A cptain and five privates of Company 14th Regiment Infantry, G.

They were Capt. James McDonald, 34, of 67 71st Privates Frank Searing, 21, and his brother, Walter. 21, of 7715 3d Arthur Sullivan, 28, of 5805 3d Charles Henson, 22.

The Councilman s'ated that his examination of the application blank for residence in the new buildings indicated that the administrative officers exercised too much control over prospective tenants. Such power, he said, might easily lead to favoritism and prejudice. He declared it was "utterly unfair" that any tenant be asked the organizations to which he belonged. The advancing of the "soci desirability" standard for admitting a person to a public housing project is especially pernicious, the Councilman held, for "the very presence of such a standard wilC he said, "shortly result in the creation of a new type of patronage far in excess of anything heretofore apparent on the political scene." Warns of Legislative Curbs Mr.

Spellman said legislative bodies had no desire to interfere with the elasticity of housing administration, but he warned of legislative curbs that might be neces sary to protect the public. He also criticized the project for its catering to but one income group, thus depriving the poorest and mid dle class families of decent housing. The problem is not too thorny to admit of solution, according to the report, which added that by work ing within the frame of existing legislation, housing difficulties could be met. The Councilman recommended wider use and encouragement of the limited-dividend private corporation; removal of the cost of public housing from the city's debt limit; granting of limited tax exemption for slum-clearance projects; donation of money or property to any public corporation for slum clearance and new housing and the granting of rent subsidies in an amount limited by a fixed proportion of the annual city budget, Senators Vote Monopoly Quiz Continued from Page 1 hour for most industries within three years. It would have the power to exempt those industries which would have to reduce employment because of such a minimum.

There would be no periodic advances in wage minima as provided In the House bill, Thomas explained. 2,000 PWA Projects Recommendations for an Immediate start on 2.000 public works projects costing $650,000,000 will be made by PWA engineers as soon as Congress sends the spending-lending bill to the White House. The projects were held over from the previous public works program because of lack of funds. In addition, PWA officials said today, applications are expected for more than 4,000 new projects which would cost about $1,554,000,000. Meanwhile the Works Progress Administration stepped up the pace of work relief enrollment to 30,000 a week in anticipation of which the bill allots it for the next seven months.

Preston, vice president of the New York State Automobile Association, and James McCue of the Atlantic Avenue Improvement Association appeared before the committee. All recorded themselves In favor of the amendment. Places Cost on State The Moses amendment would place the entire cost of grade-crossing elimination work begun after Jan.

I next on the State and would allocate $50,000,000 for New York City grade-crossing eliminations and incidental improvements out of any State authorization made In the future. Commissioner Moses told the hearing, In discussing his own amendment, that progress in eliminating certain dangerous crossings could no longer be made chiefly because of the financial condition of the railroads and because the present constitution would not permit any elimination in Atlantic Ave. except on the basis of theoretical elevation. "Nobody wants a theoretical elevation," Commissioner Moses said. "The business of conducting public hearings on the basis of theoretical elevation when everybody wants the tracks depressed Is fourth dimensional stuff and gets nowhere." No opposition to the amendment was heard during the period reserved for opponents to come forward.

At the close of the hearing, Frank Joyce, who said he represented the Paramount Neighborhood Club, of 584 9th Manhattan, demanded to be heard in opposition. Calls Hearing a Farce "I want to declare this hearing a farce," Joyce shouted as Moses reminded him the time for hearing had expired. Arthur Gelston, representing the Brooklyn Real Estate Board, registered his organization in favor of the amendment. Mr. Dougherty, In his statement In behalf of the Associated Railroads, told the hearing that the- responsibility for accidents now was primarily on the automobile.

He cited huge outlays made by the railroads as their share of the cost, under the AS I DO PERSONAL EXPERIENCE present law, to wipe out crossings at grade. Said Railroads Need Protection "It is almost unbelievable what some automobile drivers will do," he said. "In New York State, 37 percent of the accidents are due to the automobile striking the sich of the train." He said that Supreme Court Justice Brandeis, in an opinion, had held that "it Is the railroad which now requires protection from dangers Incident to motor transportation." The Osborne amendment, which would authorize the Legislature to provide for regulation of outdoor advertising, met with sharp protests when It came before the committee for a hearing. Sees 2,700 Jobs Periled William E. Beehan, attorney of the Outdoor Advertising Association of New York, which includes 40 companies, assailed the amendment.

He protested that It would open the door for an invasion of the rights of companies which have a heavy Investment in outdoor advertising and would tend to jeopardize the employment of 2,700 men, He contended it was entirely unnecessary and asserted the Legislature now possessed adequate power to provide for regulation. Vincent Ferris, president of the Allied Printing Trades; John Benson, president of the American Association of Advertising Agencies, and Kerwin Fulton, president of Outdoor Advertising, also protested against the proposal. Support for the proposal came from Capt. Arthur W. Brandt, commissioner of highway under the Department of Public Works, and Pierrepont E.

Twitchell of Setauket, chairman of the legislative committee of the Long Island Association's roadside committee. The afternoon session of the committee was devoted to a hearing on the proposed earmarking of State motor vesicle revenues for highways purposes after 1941. A brief supporting the proposed amendment, which in effect would prohibit diversion of motor revenues for other than highway purposes, was submitted by William J. Gottlieb, president of the Automobile Club of New York and vice chairman of the New York State Automobile Association Constitutional Convention committee.

86th Manhattan. I'VE LEARNED FROM THAT CAMEL BUYS FINER TOBACCOS SURE MAKE For street, sport, afternoon and evening! Staying out all night Saturday literally got Tony "out on a limb," Tony being a Mexican double-head yellow parrot owned by Mrs. Olaf W. Anderson of 11 Slocum Place. The limb was the branch of a tree In front of 11 Matthews Place, a block away, where Tony, bored with life in a cage, took refuge and led radio patrolmen, a police emergency squad and sympathetitc neighbors a merry chase, hurling invectives at them as they attempted to catch him.

Tony's "rugged Individualism" asserted itself Saturday -afternoon when, gaining freedom from his cage, he strutted out of the kitchen door and, after screeching "goodby, Ella," to his mistress, walked down the street and flew into the tree at the Matthews Place address. After efforts of Mrs. Anderson and several neighbors to coax the bird from the tree proved futile, radio patrolmen were suj moned. Realizing their inability to cope with the situation, the patrolmen summoned Emergency Squad No. 12, but even with these reinforcements Tony managed to retain his 'Dixie' Grand Jury Finally Dismissed Supreme Court Justice Pecora In Manhattan today granted a formal motion by Assistant District Attorney Sol Gelb to discharge the special jury drawn to try an indictment against J.

This action leaves the way clear for trial of the superseding indictment which named not only Davis but also James J. Hines, Tammany district leader accused of being overlord of the policy racket in the city.

Shapiro, held to be one of the most feared underworld leaders in the city, disappeared a year ago pending an appeal from his conviction in another racketeering case. He recently surrendered himself.
