P. DRAFTED HIM ENDING OF LUNACY NEARLY Banton Sha Up Staff to Conduct Trial of McManus TO GET HOOVER IRIS AND A QUARTER VOTE, SA YS SHE ARE. His Balloon Victory Challenged by Army HURRICANE SWEEPING DOCKS AT MIAMI, FLORIDA COMMISSION EVIL Tells Baumes Board That Testimony at Peacox Trial Was Disgrace. Dr. Edward Everett Hicks, psychiatrist, appearing before the Baumes Commission today at the first session of fi two-day meeting at the Brooklyn Bar Association Building 123 Remsen told the Commission it should take steps to correct the lunacy commission evil in Brooklyn.

Dr. Hicks commended the stand taken by The Eagle against the appointment of such commissions by the county Judges at great and unnecessary expense to the taxpayers. He was backed up by Warden Harry Honeck of the Raymond st. jail, who pointed out that Queens Judges had solved the problem by committing accused persons suspected of defective mentality directly to the Kings County Hos pital. Sees Return of Loan Shark.

Leon Henderson, a reoresentative of the Russell Sage Foundation, who has been making an Investigaion of the loan shark problem, asserted that loan sharks again are coming back and ave charging higher usury than ever before. He recommended that a sub-committee of the Com- mision be appointed to study appropriate legislation in connection with the Russell Sage and other inter ested organizations. George H. Chatfield, director of attendance in the public schools, discussed Juvenile delinquency, par ticularly inrelation to truancy, and Magistrate Jeanette Brill suggested a broader study of the problems presented by wayward girls. Dr.

Hicks Hits High Costs. "The city is maintaining two psy chiatric dvisons," said Dr. Hicks, and yet the cost of lunacy comms- sions have mounted from $14,000 to $140,000. You should go into this matter and try to correct it in some way. 'Suppose I had a son suffering from appendicitis, would I want him entrusted to a skin specialist or an eye specialist? A person suffering from a mental disease needs a diagnosis by a competent, trained alienist and should not be left to the consideration of a piano tuner.

And to get a trained alienist it wouldn't cost the city $140,000 a year as it does under the Brooklyn lunacy commission system. Dr. Hicks branded the expert psychiatric testimony at the Peacox trial as a "disgrace." "I am beginning to wonder if the psychiatrists don't need examination and overhauling themselv There ought to be some provision whereby psychiatrists, both for the prosecution and defense, could examine a prisoner at the same time and have a stenographic record of all questions and answers made. Then when the experts disagreed the facts on which they based the con filcting opinions would be matters of record. Alienists to Examine Alienists.

"When alienists testify that a man can be sane up to the moment of a crime, Insane for a lew moments while he commits it and then become perfectly sane again, it is time to appoint a board of alienists to examine alienists. If Juries listened to that bunk nobody would ever be convicted. "Some have advocated the appointment of a State Board of Psychiatrists to handle such cases. Please Turn to Page 2.

Buildings wrecked at Goulds, MAUREEN ORCUTT Brooklyn Rise and Queens Building Gains Taxable real estate in New York City should be worth $17,851,721,827 in 1930, or $1,253,702,357 more than it is on the 1929 assessment rolls, the opinion of the tax commissioners. This was revealed today by the Department of Taxes and Assessments, of which James J. Sexton of Brooklyn Is president, as the tax books were thrown open In the Manhattan Municipal Building and in the boro offices of the department for public Inspection.

According to Albert W. Reiners, Deputy Tax Commissioner, the books will remain available to the public for the balance of the year. The assessments carried on the books, he explained, are tentative and subject to challenge by the persons assessed. In the event of the protest of any taxpayer, he said, which might be allowed, the assessment will be altered to conform. To Allow Ample Time, After ample time has been allowed for protests, it was announced, the books will be ad-Justed to conform with allowances and will be closed.

To the assessed valuations of real estate must be added special franchise assessments which will not be made up until the early part of 1930, but which It was estimated will amount to and for personal property assessments, making a total tentative assessment of real and personal property Of $19,632,561,302. The special franchise and taxable real estate figure added together make $18,386,721,827. When the $398,858,500 for the real estate of corporation figure is added, this brings the tentative real estate record for 1930 to $18,767,811,022. Exemptions under the New Building Exemption Ordinance amount to $916,089,195. This must be deducted from the total real estate figure, leaving $17,851,721,837.

Total Increase $1,344,68,382. The 1929 total was $16,593,019,470. The 1929 total for personal estate assessments was $1,154,873,450. The real estate increase of $1,253,702,357 and the personal estate increase of $90,966,025 make the total 1930 increase for both real and personal estate $1,344,668,382. These figures are tentative and subject to review.

The thousands of taxpayers who will Inspect the books from today on have the right to de mand hearings on claims for re adjustment of their assessments. Controller Charles W. Berry, dis cussing the subject, said that in view of the billion and a quarter tentative increase in the 1930 assess ment over that of 1929 he did not think that the tax rate would be appreciably higher for 1930 than it was for the current year, although next year budget total would prob ably from $20,000,000 to $25,000,000 more than tne total for 1929. New Rate Estimated. Mr.

Berry believes that the new basic tax rate will be between 2.55 and 2.60 for each 100 of valuation. The basic lax rate for 1929 is 2.55 and the tax rate for the various boros, including local assessments for 1929, are as follows: Brooklyn, 2.66; Queens, 2.60; Manhattan, 2.68; Bronx. 2.62, and Richmond, 2.67. It was learned at City Hall that an extraordinary effort was beliy made to keep the budget for 1930 at somewhat less than $560,000,000. The budget total for 1929 was $538,000,000.

Brooklyn's shape on the real estate list is $4,554,369,585. Of this. 494,700.735 is for real estate proper and sav lor real estate of cor poratlons. The boro stood second highest in the number of new build lngs having 3,736 to 9.207 new struc tures erected by Queens.

THE EAGLE INDEX CUBA SUGAR FIRM District Attorney Recalls Marro From Court Duty to Be Titular Head of Homicide Bureau He Is to Work Under Brothers. Because of the impending trial of George McManus, for the murder of Arnold Roth-stein, District Attorney Ban-ton today gave the homicide division of his office its second material shakeup In six months. P. Francis Marro, an assistant, sent to General Sessions in the last shakeup, vai returned to head the bureau. Banton said that change was made because, before the last transfer, Marro was one of the chief Rothstein case investigators, and his presence is now required for the trial.

Assistant District Attorney James T. Neary, who had been in charge of the Homicide Bureau, was sent to General Sessions Court. Brothers to Be Real Head. The real head of the bureau will be George N. Brothers, however, Banton said.

With First Assistant Ferdinand Pecora, Brothers will prosecute McManus next week. Although Marro will be titular head of the homicide department, he will actually work under the direction of Brothers and Pecora. Banton said that the changes were of "no great importance," although, he added, they were brought about at this time because of the decision to try McManus on the Rothstein indictment next week. Martense Story Ignored. Meanwhile Banton insisted that the story made public by former Police Commissioner Enright that a drug addict named Heinle Mar-tense murdered Rothstein would not influence him in his prosecution of McManus.

"If that story is offered at the McManus trial next week," said Banton, "we will be able to break it down quickly." Banton spent today preparing for the Grand Jury. which indicted McManus last November and which la to be recalled for a session tomorrow. Banton refused to state who would be witnesses and wHether any of the candidates in the present political scramble who have made Rothstein charges would be summoned. Silent ob Cantor. The District Attorney was asked if Maurice Cantor, the former Assemblyman, who as Rothstein's attorney, drew up and had signed the will of the gambler Just before Rothstein died, would be called.

AFTERNOON RALLY IN Small Traders Hard Hit in Early Break as Selling Causes Big Drop. i liquidation of stocks by dis- traders and active tie short selling by professional bears carried prices down to new low levels in the forenoon but by mid-afternoon a sharp recovery was under way and many leading stocks were up two to five points. The morning decline was probably the most disastroas for the speculative element for it came at a time when thousands were being told by brokers that they would have to put up more money or sell their holdings. Thousands sold and the declines ranged from fractions to more than 20 points.

Banking support was evident In a tew issues like General Motors, Radio, United States 8teel and General Electric. They declined relatively little and were the first to rally. International Combustion was thep rize bust of the day. It dropped over ten points, which was large movement for a low-priced stock selling near 50. The rally followed announcement that operations of United States Steel had increased again.

Steadily declining activity in steel and other major lines had generated fears of a big business recession. Call money rates were high, bankers condemnation of Increased brokers loans and further disturbing news from London were unsettling items. Most of the real trouble, however, was in the condition of the market Itself and the necessity of speculators to sell stocks. The decline and recovery covered broad list of Issues. Utilities which had held up fairly well scattered throughout the list and only a few were able to hold their own.

Washington, Oct. 1 Th Senate investigation of the activities of William B. Shearer, arch-propagandist, disclosed today two important new facts, one of which brought the Republican National Committee into the picture, the other of which involved William Randolph Hearst. The following was brought out at today's hearing: 1. Shearer's employer, after th shipbuilders got rid of him, was William Randolph Hearst, who paid him $2,000 a month to "or-ganire" American patriotic sm-l-rties against American participa-pation In the World Court and the League of Nations.

Mr. Hearst dismissed Shearer the moment tha present Senate Investigation was authorized. 2. The Republican National Committee, In the rampaign to rlert Herbert Hoover President, used Shearer's antl-Britlsh naval material to whip up pro-Hoover sentiment among "the simple Irish" In Massachusetts. The Republican end of the tal provided the real sensation of today's hearing.

Shearer testified that Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia University, commented on Candidate Hoover's speech of acceptance at Palo Alto. C'ttl, In August, 1928, in a sen.se adverse to adeqtiRta national defense. Shearer attacked Dr. Butler.

Archer were inucri Impressed with his attack on Dr. Butler. Shearer tesllied. and wanted Shearer to '0 to Massachusets, where his anti-British material might do some good among tha Irish-American voters. Shearer went to Boston.

He vat used by the Republican National Committee, he testllled, while ha was still In the employ of the shipbuilders. His anti-British arguments were mulled out In large quantities. The Republican National Committee. Shearer said, furnished the en velopes. The postage was contributed by Laurence Wilder, former president, of the American Brown Boverl Corporation, which paid one-third of Shearer's $25,000 fee at the Geneva Conference of 1927.

Didn't Pay Shea nr. The Republican committee did not pay Shearer, he said. Ho was still in the employ of the great shipbuilding Interests. Senator Henry J. Allen of Kansas, who Is a member of the Sonata committee now investigating Mr.

Shearer, was director of publicity for the Republican National Committee during the oliover campaign. Shearer had an Interview with Allen, he testified, ot the Plaza, Hotel, In New York, during the campaign. Allen said that Shearer ought to go out and make speeches. The Senator from Kansas, in cross-examining Shearer, denied the Interview, but did not go into the political end of Shearer's activities. Just before the hearing adjourned for lunch.

Senator Allen asked: "Who has employed you since you were dismissed by the sh''iuilders? "William Randolph vst," Shearer replied. i "Officials of the American Leiioil introduced me to Commander Paul McNutt of the Legion." shearer explained.

Van Orman, civilian pilot, or Capt. William E. Kepner, Army balloonist, is the winner. The air board of the St. Louis Chamber of Commerce, on the basis of its calculations, unofficially gives the race to Van Orman, who piloted the Goodyear VIII from St.

Congressman Florello H. LaGuar- dia will make further sensational disclosures in his expose of the alleged "tax racketeering" by the Tammany administration, he prom ised today. At his headquarters in the Hotel Cadillac in Manhattan, it was announced that the list of prominent persons alleged to have enjoyed the favor of the Municipal Tax Commission at the expense of the less fortunate property owners and rent payers will be added to tomorrow. The Republican candidate for Mayor dropped the assessment issue long enough to hammer an ay at Tammany Hall for its selection of a Judiciary tickec last night. Among the candidates picked were Irwin Untermyer, son of the noted lawyer, and Justice Albert Cohen, who comes up for re-election.

Criticizes Judgeship Nominations. "Compare the present ticket with the type of men that Smith forced on the Bench at Tammany Hall." said LaGuardia. "Why, shades of Cassidy, you have got to be a rich man's son to get a nomination from Tammany Hall. "Now we have Untermyer, the son of Sam, and Colin, the son of Banker Marcus. Why, Cassidy was a piker." "Curley Joe" Cassidy, the former Democratic boss of Queens, was sent to Sing Sing Prison for selling a Supreme Court nomination to William Willett.

LaGuaidia caused a sensation last night when he declared that more than $75,000,000 was Involved in improper tax reductions and listed more than a half dozen prominent persons and corporations as the alleged beneficiaries. William II. Todd Mentioned. William H. Todd, close personal friend of Mayor Walker and former Governor Smith, was the only Brooklyn person on the list.
