Sheriff Farley is :
Taken From Office
By Gov. Roosevelt
{Continued Irom Page One.)
banks between 1925 and 1930, al
though his highest salary during
that period was $15,000., He ex
plained some of the daeposits,
showing that they were reé.depos
its of the same money, withdrawn
to make loans. But the bulk of
the great amount remained un
explained, Farley only saying that
he took it out of his tin hox.
Wonderful Box
“That must have been a won
derful tin box,’ Seabury exclaim
ed.
“A wonderful tin box,” Farley
agreed, but had no.expianation to
offer as to the gource of its sup
ply. * : . .
Farley flatly denied profession
al gambling had been carried on
mm his Tammany district club
house. Confronted with evidence
of a raid on the <club in' which
several arrests were made, he
gaid that far from gambling, the
occupants of the club on that oc
casion had been winding Maypoles
for a children’s May day party.
Seabury publicly branded Far
ley as a grafter and acting as a
private citizen gent a copy of the
Farley testimony to Governor
Roosevelt with a demand for the
sheriff’'s removal. While the sher
iff was framing his reply to Sea
bury’s charges both Farley and
former Sheriff Charles W. Cul
kins, Farley's predecessor were
indicted by the grand jury in New
York for grand larceny- Trial is
pending. '
Last week Governor Roosevelt
held a public hearing and at that
time indicated that he considered
Farley's exvlanation of his large
income unsatisfactory.
As soon as Farley returned to
New York from that hearing he
entefed a hospital and his doctor
announced he was suffering from
arm and shoulder burns which
qad caused him intense pain dur
ng the two-day examination be
fore the governor. Farley, ine
loctor said, had - been suffering
‘rom a painful kidney complaint
wd shortly before coming to Al
bany had fainted in his home and
‘allen against a bhot radiator.
Improper Practice )
Although he did not base his
-emoval order ou Farley's per
sonal appropriation .of interest on
unds of litigants, the governcr
writicized this “highly improper
practice” which had been “long
continued.” -
The removal of the Tammany
Hall man was construed by some
{o mean that Mr. Roosevelt had
thrown down a gauntlet to Tam
many chaflenging it to oppose his
candidacy for the Democratic
Presidential nomination at next
June's national convention. Others,
however, believed the governor’s
action had no political significance
and that his dismissal of Farlay
was an action entirely against
the gherift and bad no connection
with his feelings toward Tam-.
many Hall. . \
The Hall had Deen expected by
some political observers to Te.
taliate for the removal by throw
ing its stremgth to some anti.
Roosevelt unit. .
| Farley, on ' his . part, said b~
would give his support to Roose
velt's candidacy regardléss of
what actioh the governor might
take in his case—if the Tammany
Hall organization itself turned its
convention -support to Rooseveit.

- Short Selling on
1
~ Exchange Necessary
WASHINGTON, —{#)— Richard
Whitney, president of the New
York Stock Exchange, told a house
judieiary sub-committee today that
“if there was no suort selling, I
am confident our market. would
have closed months ago,”!
He said that short selling is a
“necessary and useful practice.”
Whitney opened’ his testimony
with a general discussion of the
mechanics of pteek | exchange
transactions. The judiclary group
is, considering bills both to regu
late and prohibit short selling.
“Because the exchange |, has
stayed, open,” Whitney said, “the
huge total of loans based on secu
rities in this country has remained
IHiquid, Had they become illiquid our
entire banking system would have
been devastatingly affected.”
