EAGLE BUILDING Desirable office space at lowest rentals in Borough Hall section Renting Agent ROOM 506 Main 4-6200 Ixl. 64 On the theory that ther? was insufficient evidence beiore the Nassau grand jury to justify the indictment charging Frank Frankel, former Mayor of the City of Long Beach, with a violation of the Penal Law in diverting for city purposes tax money collected for the county, John J. Curtin, Frankel's counsel, today asked Justice Peter P. Smllfi in Brooklyn Supreme Court for leave to read the grand Jury minutes. The indictment was handed down in Mineola more than a year and a half ago and Curtin obtained a change of venue to Brooklyn on the ground Frankel could not get a fair trial in Nassau County.

Money I'sd In Long Beach Witnesses had told the grand jury that the county treasury got none of the $221,797 collected from Long Beach taxpayers for county purposes. It was used for capital improvement in Long Beach and unemployment relief. Assistant District Attorney Martin W. Littleton of Nassau opposed the motion, saying the indictment alleged a specific violation, based on willful omission, that the tax bills listed the percentage of tax for county purposes and that no unskilled labor was used in the public improvements. Justice Smith reserved decision.

Court Voids Check In Leather Deal A deal in leather that turned out disastrously was described to Justice Peter P. Smith in Brooklyn Supreme Court today when the Warner Shoe Corporation, Van Sinderen asked for an order to prevent the Manufacturers Trust Co. from paying on a certified check for $900 issued by the Warner concern. Murray Kafka, president, said on Jan. 8 his firm bought a cargo of leather from the Rio Evporting Co.

for $1,700, paying $800 in cash and giving the $900 check, which a Rio representative had certified immediately at the bank. In the afternoon of Jan. 9, Kafka declared, the police came and took the leather away, saying it was needed as evidence in a criminal case and that lt had been obtained from a tannery by the Rio outfit on forged certified checks. The officers of the Rio concern have disappeared, police told Kafka. It is not listed in the directories.

Justice Smith granted the plea as there was no opposition. AntiCrime Bureau May Be Abolished Police Commissioner O'Ryan said today that the Crime Prevention! Bureau, established by former Commissioner Grover A. Whalcn in 1928. would undergo rigid sent-I tiny next week to determine if results justify the heavy expenditure it entails. The commissioner said he had heard praise and condemnation, in equal parts, of the bureau, both outside and inside the department.

Many practical "cops," he said, had been especially emphatic in stating that the bureau had little or no effect in reducing juvenile delinquency through baseball leagues and playground supervision. Suffolk PWA Job Contract Unsigned Special to The Eagle Riverhead, Jan. 12 Although contracts and agreements providing a $16,400 grant to Suffolk County for the construction of the Fort Pond Road were forwarded to Riverhead last November, they haven't yet been signed and returned, it was learned today. Failure of the county authorities to sign and deliver the necessary agreements was given as the reason for Secretary Ickes warning that the grant would be rescinded unless action was taken. If plans and specifications for the road have been drawn and contracts let as claimed by County En-srlneer Smith, the PWA hasn't been officially notified of the fact yet, it was said.

Commander 'Never Sleeps' Commander McGinnis appeared the least tired of any of the squadron's personnel as he stepped from his plane.

His first request was for a cigarette. most of the other airmen went to sleep early last night, the pommander accompanied Commander Wayne Tod, in charge of the fleet air base, to the latter's Waikiki home. "He never sleeps," Commander Tod commented. "He's fresher than the rest of us who merely watched the planes arrive."
