By Paul Mallon Pressure WASHINGTON. Oct. 9 All denials to the contrary notwithstanding. It wis Mr. Parley who got Mr. Pecora Into the district attorney race In New Torlt. Those who were In on the deal say the pressure exerted by the postmaster general waa very, very strong. He In sisted that Pecora accept, and finally broke down the sales resistance or the prosecutor lor the stock market In vestlgatora. Parley's enthusiasm la supposed to have been purely political. He wanted popular Italian to take the Musso lini men away from the La Ouardia ticket. , That sounds like a logical explana tion. But there are ramifications. Hope Walking The truth la that Mr. Pecora Is In vestigating Wall street and running on a political ticket backed by wau atreet all at one and the same time. The bankers and brokers he exam ines dally are going to vote for Joseph MoKee aa mayor. Unless they scratch the ticket, they are also going to vote for Mr. McKee's running mate, pecora aa district attorney. That makea a very embarrassing situation. No matter how conscien tious Mr. pecora Is, he will find him self on the apot In the senate Investi gation from now on. Any slight slip he makea will lead busy-bodies to murmur: "Aha. I thought so." Skinning? The best answer to that la the fact that the senators behind Pecora ap proved hla move. Pour were consulted, all Democrat. Senator Glass was not, and he has been grumbling. A major ity, however, had complete confidence In the entthuslasm of their prosecu- tor. They did not give a thought to the ramifications. pecora's friends say hla actions from no on wlll spoak louder than words on that subject. -"" They all ask critics to wait and aee how he skins the Wall streeters alive. Riding . The best Inside market Inquiry yarn Is the one about the missing motorist. Pecora is responsible for It but names cannot be used because It is not yet a matter of official record. It concerns the head of a certain large public utilities outfit who has been pursued by Pecora for more than a month. When Pecora first went to the power man a otfice. tney saio. He la out riding." Pecora said he would wait, but was told to come back n nt dav. He did but the fellow was still riding. That went on for two weeks. Pecora became so angry he threat ened to prepare a police circular bear ing the man's picture and stating: "Missing witness wanted." He was per suaded, not to do it. , When the hearing started, the gen. i tleman was still out riding. Rooks Almost as good Is the one about the former bank board chairman who rirf tn keen the committee rom ses Ing his books, for three months he told Pecora the federal Income tax people had the books. Pecora became suspicious. He went to the tax peo ple. There he found that the banker hui Hun teiimir them the same siory, .ui he could not furnish the t.r rnni. with the books because tww. hirf them. Pecora and the tax examine went to the banker together. They gov books. Forfeiting if lb.
