Share of City '
Fees.
NEW YORK, June .
Evidence which Samuel Seabury
said constituted grounds for the
removal of Mayor Walker was
presented to the Hofstadter Leg-
islative Committee today.
'The committee counsel charged
Walker had violated the City
Charter by holding bonds y in a
compapy whihh received a City
contract for $43,556 worth of
traffic lights.
"And I say it is grounds for re-
moval and has been so held and is
so provided in Section 1533 of the,
City Charter," Seabury told the in-I
quiry board in stern tones.
Walker himself, in Detroit, has
charged Seabury with "unfairnes "
and said the lawyer "well knew"
that the bonds "came into my pos-
session without any knowledge on
my part of the company's bust-
ness."
Removal Demandedk
Seabury's statement to thoe com-
mittee was the first in wWch he
has given any intimation he will
file charges against the Mayor and
the first time he has said the Mayor
should be ousted.
It also was the first time Sea-
bury had followed up the introduc-.
tion of evidence againt the Mayor
kith a charge that a violatton had
tbeen committed for whlch -apc-
cific penalty was pr'ovlded.

Among the day's witnesses was
Dr. William H. Walker, the mayor's
brother, to whom William J Scan-
lan, who sold equipment to thee City,
said lie paid more than $2,500 for
medical services.
Dr. Walker had been sought by
Seabury's aides since shortly after
Scanlan testified.
Included City Fees.
After first denying that the fees
he shared with four physicians enm-
ployed- by the City to handle work-
men's, compensation cases included
any fees paid by the City, Dr.
Walker testified that in the case of
one of the physicions he did share
fees paid by the City.
Dr Walker said he formerly
shared an office with Dr Harris
Feinberg, one of the four physi-
cians; that lie and Dr. Feinberg had
been shown a considerable number
of eieks dawn by the City to Dr.
Feinberg ad endorsed by both him
and Dr. Walker.
The Mayos brother acknowl-
edged he had received about $50,000
inthe last five years by serving as
a consultant on the call of :Dr.
Thomas J. O'Mara, oneof a group
of physician's designated to treat
injured City employees under the
Workmen's Compensation Act.

The plan that Prof. Daniel L.

preclude conflict at examination
time, but will not enable them to

when the examinations will take

Dublin Writes htroduction
to Anual Book.
By Kenneth T. Rowe
Assistant Professor of English
This year's book of University of
Michigan plays has the distinction
of an introduction by Mr. Lennox
Robinson, director of the Abbey
Theatre in Dublin, now the Irish
National theatre, and, author of
"The White Headed Boy," "The Far
Off Hills," and other well-known
plays. Mr. Robinson has made
many friends in Ann Arbor through
several visits here in the past few
years, as lecturer, to direct the stu-
dents of play production in a pre-
sentation of "The White Headed
Boy" and this year is bringing his
company from the Abbey theatre in
a repertory of Irish plays. ~
Mr. Robinson appraises in his in-
troduction the growing place of col-
leges arnd universities in the the-
atrical life of the country. From
his experience of successive .visits
to America since 1911, on'lecture
tour and with the Abbey theatre
company, he has viewed the situa-
#tion of the drama and theatre in
cities and small towns, and in col-
