What did he say the meeting was about?" are to meet 0'Dwyer." After reading the testimony Newmark said: "You mean you heard that these bookmakers were going to meet O'Dwyer?" I heard it," Gross replied." Called a Philanthropist Earlier the pudgy bookie, who is now serving a Rikers Island term for his gambling activities, was depicted not only as a bigshot bookmaking tycoon, but a philanthropist as well. Gross was asked by Newmark: Dave Soden have a party there?" Gross said yes, he had. "There" was the Dugout Restaurant in Flatbush, headquarters of Gross' bookmaking business. David F. Soden, former transfer tax appraiser in Brooklyn, sponsors periodic free parties for orphans.

"Did Soden ask you for money?" Newmark continued. Yes he did, Gross said. "And did you give him any?" "I gave him $200. For children and orphans, why not?" Before that Gross, led by the lawyer, repeated his story of much more substantial payments to police and said "we had a pretty good idea what the standard price (meaning bribe) was." He never "touched" a gambling spot that produced less $1,500 a day, double that on Saturdays. Today's session looked as if it might be the last one for some time.

Third Deputy Commissioner James A. Delahanty, presiding, was informed at the outset by Herbert B. Sansom, head of the stenotypist firm which has been officially reporting the proceedings, that he would leave the trial at the closing of today's session, because of the difficulty of collecting from the city. Should the trial continue until Christmas, Sansom said, his firm would be $20,000 "out of pocket" and would have to wait 18 months to collect. So he gave up.
