WEINBERG EVIDENCE PROVOKES HINES TO

SCENE IN NEW YORK TRIAL

New York, To-day. The witness, George (Rosy") Weinberg, continu- ing as the State witness against James J. Hines, alleged that in November, 1933, "Dutch" Schultz ordered him to help Hines with money in order to secure the election of Mr. W. C. Dodge as District Attorney of Manhattan. Mr. Dodge was the predecessor in office of the pre- sent District Attorney, Mr. Dewey, who had named Dodge as one of the public officials, "in- fluenced" by Hines.

Weinberg also stated the gang gave Hines altogether about $32,000 before the election and between

The defendant, who had hitherto given quiet attention to · Wein- berg's evidence, jumped up outrag- ed and called the witness a liar at one point during the cross-examina- tion.

NEW EUROPEAN

PACT PLEASES ITALY

Rome, To-day.

"The Messagers" sees in the con- ference of Bled one of the most momentous meetings of the repre- sentatives of the Little Entente since it terminated its quarrel with Budapest.

The paper goes on to say that the question of National Minorities still remains to a certain extent M.
