NKW YOU K. Oct. 3.') The
mayor of Massena. N. V.. is culled
by Louis Marshall, pr-sident of the
American Jcwb.li committee, eith
er to resign or apologize publicly
for what he terms an "unspeak
able calumny" against the Jewish
' rine.
Mr. Marsha II. through the Jew
ish Telegraph agency, made public
a letter to Mayor W. illbert
i I awes in which he charged that
on Sept. 22, two days before Yom
Kippur, the mayor "arranged" for
the interrogation of a rabbi in
t Massena by a state trouper after
: the'- dl-appearance of 4 -year-old
Itarbaru Oriff ith "on the intoler
able HKKumptfon that the Jews re
quired the blood nf Christian chil
dren fur their holy days."
The child later was found un
harmed in a woods near her home
where she explained she had
strayed.
The letter demanded that Mayor
11 awes make an immediate and
i public written apology to the Jew
ish people "for this wanton attack
upon their religion unit uton their
honor and for the abuse of your
official position in encouraging the
i circulation of this unspeakable
'calumny."
The b tter demanded also that as
further evidence of regret he
; should resign from office. Unless
'one or the other of these two
I courseH are pursued Mr. Marshall
; said, he would Institute proceed
ings for Alayor Hnwes' removal
from office on the ground of offi
cial misconduct.
I Humors of ritual murders are
frequent In certain tan-Monti of
I Kurope Just prior to the Jewish
holy days, two cases having been
reported at the time of the Jewish
holidnys Inst month.
The most celebrated case of
ritual murder rumors was that
whh'h led to t lie arrest n nd t ria I
of Mendel Heilis in Kiev, Russia.
In 1!M3. lie was charged with
murdering a man for the purpose
of blood rituals. Old Jewish docu
ments ii nd' books of the seven
teenth nnd eighteenth centuries in
which the charge of ritual murders
was made were Introduced as evi
dence in the trial. Iteills was
acquitted.
BANDITS HOLD UP

( N K W YOUK, Oct. n. )--Mae
; West, actress nnd author, who
served 10 days in jail last year for
; taking part In an indecent per
, fonnaiice, was again arrested Tues
j day after police raided the Hroad
i way premiere of her latest play,
"Pleasure Man."
Kitty-five men and women com
'prising the play's cast were loaded
In patrol wagons at the close of
the evening's performance and tak
en to a police station a block away
where after several hours they
were released on bail.
Miss. West, who is author of the
piny but not a member of its cast,
was arrested at another t heat re,
where she is starring In "Diamond
Ml." She posted J'.Oo hail for a
hearing. AH were charged with
producing or taking pnrt in an in-de.-ent
performance.
The raid caused considerable ex
citement anions the crowded Kroad
wuy throngs. Traffic was jammed
nnd cheers, boos and hisses greeted
the performers on their short ride.
Police In Audience
Acting on reports from suburban
(owns, where the play was given
preliminary showings, the police
department had a half dozen offi
cials in the audience. At 10: Ku
o'clock, while the play was still In
progress, a signal was given to a
score of plain clothes men stationed
outside and nil exits were placed
under guard.
Patrons, however, were unaw.irr?
of the police activity until they
began to leave the theatre. No ef
fort was made to Interfere with
them, but at the conclusion of the
show the entire cast was confined
hack stage to await patrol wagons.
Audiences from nearby t heat res
also were leaving at the same time
and the streets soon were packed
with humanity. The crowd became
so dense that police reserves were
called out to open the street to
traffic.
Miss West, after being taken Into
custody at her- theatre, was de
tained at the police station several
hours. After a statement hy her
had been taken down hy a police
sleinvrnpher she was released un
der ball furnished by n professional
bondsman. Hull for the members
of the cast was furnished bv the
Actors' Kqnlty nsHnctat Inn. Frank
till more, secretary id the associa
tion, declared (he arrest of the cast
was n "digrace."
Miss West, who gave her age ns
L'S, was appearing In n play railed
"Sex." of which she also was the
author, when she was arrested lust
year. She carried her case to trial
nnd was convicted, being sentenced
to serve. 10 days in the work house
and fined J". 00.
