| NEW YORK, Oct. 5—This is a piece written only for my own amusement, and for the passible edification of other country-folk like me, who do nat quite understand the delicate maneuvering of big city politics and the kind of accompanying graft which is shocking a generally unshockabie city. : ' Let us see. The rumblings’ of a graft investigation starts. Our personable mayor, Bill O'Dwyer, cdlls it a “witch hunt.” Then he turns out all the bluecoats for the funeral of a’ police captain who has shot himself, in the face of a “‘witch hunt.”
