LOCAL COMMENT ON BECKER'S CONVICTION When asked his opinion of the verdict of the New York jury that found Lieutenant Charles A. Becker, guilty of complicity in the murder of Her man Rosenthal, a Richmond police official said. "He got just what he deserves, but I am surprised that they ever convicted him. He deserves the sentence passed upon him, not especially for murder but because he is a crooked police official. A dishonest police official is one of tho worst men the public has to deal with. Of course if he was convicted on Rose's testimony the source ought to be taken into consideration, as he is as bad as Becker.
