I told him he killed the Mayor and Walsh but he kept on walking up and down, singing, and he shook the bars." (Ryan was assigned to guard Dooley after his arrest.) "Do you think his behavior was rational or irrational?" Leibowitz inquired. "Irrational. I think the man was crazy," Ryan replied bluntly. On cross examination Ryan ad- mitted to Neary that Dooley greeted him in the cell by saying, "Hello 'Bearcat'" (Ryan's nickname). MENTIONS WALSH "Were you approached by any one in the PBA election?"

Those figures, however, represent. ed a saving of about 800 lives and a 1 percent reduction from the 1938. toll. The 1939 accident rate of 71 1 deaths per 100.000 population was the slnfe 19Q0 wltn two ex ceptions 1S21 and 1922, Leading the list were motor vehicle accidents, which accounted for 32.800 deaths, 18 more than in 1938.

M. Hamilton, Republican national chairman, specifically inviting the O. O.

P. to hold Its gathering at the World's Fair in Queens. Referring to the new city Department of Commerce, organized to attract new business to the city, the Mayor said: "Naturally, the city is bidding for all conventions because they help business in the city generally. It would be handled through the convention bureau." HARVEY CITES FACILITIES In his letter Mr. Harvey wrote: "As President of the Borough of Queens and a member of the board of directors of the World's Fair in this county, I am writing you to suggest that you consider Queens and the facilities of the Fair ln selecting the site for the coming national Republican convention, "I have made a survey which reveals that we could afford you all the services and facilities required for this most important of all conventions ever held by the Republican party and I am sure that it would be mast fitting and proper that this convention be held in this county with 1,500.000 residents, where Democrats and Republicans alike have seen fit to elect a Republican Borough President since 1929.

STRESSES HOME SETTING "I know that the convention will concern itself with the selection of a Presidential that will guarantee sanctity of American business and the American home. "What could be more proper, therefore, than to hold this convention in New York City's greatest borough of small homes and ln- dustrial activity? We would provide the most conducive setting possible for the history that will be made our national convention this year. "I hope that your committee will allow men to present it with a detailed report on what Queens, the World's Fair and New York City can provide for you in the way of making the delegates' stay a pleasant and constructive sojourn."

While the band was being led before Magistrate Giaccone, Mayor LaQuardia, at City Hall, denied with a deprecating wave of the hand a report that he would go to Pennsylvania Court himself to sit as Magistrate over the hearing. MUST HAVE INCOME "He Is the kind of punk we don't want around town." said the Mayor, referring to Reles. The Mayor recently set the stage for proceedings like today's when he instructed City Magistrates that pos.sesslon of money was not sufficient defense against vagrancy charges unless the defendants could prove a legal source of income. At the time of the luncheon adjournment onlv one defendant, Alexl Strauss of 2102 74th had been called, and Magistrate Giaccone was Dooley's Son Takes Stand Continued from Tage 1 legislation affecting Civil Service for policemen. "Did you notice anything about Doole'y then?" Leibowltz asked.

"This man Dooley on that trip annoyed me quite a bit by his mannerisms," Aclainson said. "He would interrupt me in conversations, would open his eyes wide, staring, and would purse his lips." While in Albany Adamson and Dooley met Mayor Edwards in the DeWi'tt Clinton Hotel. The Mayor chatted pleasantly with both men, I Adamson said The Mayor asked Dooley why he had opposed him in the election, Adamson said, and Dooley replied that he was friendly with Lorenzo Carlino, attorney, who had opposed Edwards in the Long Beach election.

Albany. Jan. 31 The Legislature's continued failure to empower the Governor to step in and investigate dishonest officials in municipal governmental agencies was rapped today by Governor Lehman. A request for the appointment of a commlssionpr to investigate the affairs of the city of Yonkers was rejected by the Governor, who pointed out in a letter to Horace W. Gray, chaitman of the City Manager League, that he was powerless to act.

Lehman, in his letter to Gray, pointed out that the Governor is empowered solely to name a More-land Commissioner to probe State departments and agencies. He observed that the State Controller, who is head of the Department of Audit and Control, has had power for years to examine municipal accounts. 'But the Governor said, In quoting from his annual message to the Legislature, 'no matter what corruption or dishonesty may be found, the State is helpless to do anything about it. It seems very clear to me that the law should be changed so that, the report of the State Controller be filed with the Governor for whatever action he may have to Governor Lehman said In spite of repeated recommendations which he made the Legislature has failed to agree with his proposals. mtmmr i (A Salt-tea Air it to ilimulatinand Healthful, bpend a glorious day at ASBURY PARK- ROUND TRIP LONG BRANCH principal eutiooe lo Bcr Hd.

The two women, who had virtually been at the lieutenant's side since his trial began a eek ago hurried from a corridor to join 'him in thanking "the many friends who have remained loyal throughout a time of need." On being formally discharged by Justice MacCrate, Behan, who is 44 land had been transferred from the Bergen St. to the Prospect Park station shortly before the disappearance of the records, had lunch in a downtown restaurant and went home to 91-35 87th Woodhaven. MANY CALLS RECEIVED The widespread interest in the case, noticeable ever since Behan was arrested Oct. 21, 1938, and released in $25,000 bail Dec. 12, 1938, was emphasized by some 250 tele-! phonic inquiries received by the Brooklyn Eagle through the night and early morning.

In his charge to the jury, Justice MacCrate pointed out that Lieutenant Behan might be convicted or acquitted on the two counts relating to mutilation of the records, and acquitted or found guilty of grand or petty larceny on the third, In the trial, Murphy dwelt on not only the testimony o' Patrolman Lawlor, but on a transcript of testi-'mony of Patrolman James J. Sweeney, who committed suicide after telling of having seen Behan the Bergen St. station between j.ju ano 4 a.m. on the day the records allegedly were stolen. Patrolman Lawlor bolstered the proserin ion's contention thai Behan had filched the records to (er up illicit baiibond transactions bv testifying that, when he naw the licti-teniur in the Bergen St.

stati. mi that day, the latter warned him tliat. "if Commissioner Herlands ever sees these records we'll all go to jail." On the other hand, Barshay attacked the testimony of both patrolmen with the assertion that 'he Police Department, embarrassed bv the loss of the records, had "in said 'break the case or your necks will be To counteract revelation that he had been fined two days' pav a departmental infraction of bail ootid regulations and that he had had Knowledge that the missing records were under investigation, Behan tons the stand and swore that lie was home and in bed when the theft occurred. He was supported on tna' point by his wife and daughter. While confined to Jail before nian-atiing to raise the $25,000 bail, Lieutenant Behan, who jained the ton 1919 and became a lieutenant in 19111, Lhallenged Commissioner to testify at his trial, asset that, if the challenge was accepted, he would reveal departmental proceedings that "will shock Neu York." The defendant's "dare" was renewed during the trial by Baishav, wiiu maintained that the failure oi the Commissioner and other officials to be called was weakening the praecut Ion's case.

The verdict, returned at 2:40 a.m. after four hours and 50 minutes of deliberation.

Inspired a joyful outburst from relatives and friends- of the accused officer, who now must hurdle pending departmental charges in order to gain complete exoneration. The jurors were dismissed by Justice MacCrate without comment, but came in for cheers of scrubwomen at work in the Court House and left the building smiling in response to the action of an irrepressible Behan sympathizer who tailed to them, "You were swell!" VERY happy: says barshay Former Assistant District Attorney Hyman Barshay, Behan's defense attorney, said today: "We are all very happy. We have no antagonisms against anybody. We have quarrel with anybody. And I hope that Lieutenant Behan will get back into the Police Department very soon.
