Colden of Queens had caused his arrest and arraignment in court on a charge of bribery. The patrolman, who lives at 151-35 20th Whitestone, and has been on the force seven years, is alleged to have taken money from two peddlers in return for permitting them to operate In a restricted district.

The first move came In the Long Island City Magistrate's Court, where Jacob Hecht of 20-20 74th Brooklyn, and Michael Licb-lich of 20-46 37th Brooklyn, brothers-in-law, were arraigned on a charge by Patrolman Lits that they were peddling without a license. Peddlers on Stand Hecht stated to Magistrate Prank Giorgio that the patrolman had given out the summons because he had quit paying him as he used to. Assistant District Attorney William O'Hare put the two men on the stand and under oath they stated that over a period of weeks they had paid the patrolman $5 a week and in return he had let them alone. District Attorney Colden, assisted by Assistant District Attorney James J. Conroy, questioned the witnesses, and studied the Magistrate's record.

The District Attorney then ordered the arrest of the patrolman and notified Chief Inspector Valentine. "There is an area In Astoria, a business district, where peddlers are not allowed to park in competition with business men who are paying high rents," Mr. Colden pointed out. "These men stated that when they first went there they were chased by Lits until they came to an agreement with Lits. Once a week when Lits would pas's, one or the other would shake hands with him.

A $5 bill would pass from the peddler to the patrolman. Then he would let them stay and would chase the others. "The peddlers claim that on the day they were given a summons they felt no need for protection because they were not peddling but were making wholesale deliveries of cauliflower to local merchants." Pleads Not Guilty Lits was taken to the Hunters College.
