In the January 7, 1958 edition of the "New York Daily News an article appeared stating that the E.

They 13,- were -rti qua. oned concerning their= efforts to intercede 29 ' with the New York State Police in October, 1956, on the speeding arrest of CARMINE GALANTE. It was 30. alleged by the New York State Police that Captain 1!? GLEITSMANNrffered a $1,000.00 bribe to Sergeant EDGAR 5 4- -_a- CROSWELL to keep GALANTE from jail on a traffic charge.

3 In connection with this bribery attempt, an g article appeared in the "New York Herald Tribune", dated January B, 1956, which is set out as follows:

"District Attorney LOUIS GREENBLOTT, at the § behest of Acting New York State Investigation 1* Commissioner ARTHUR L.

"Captain GLEITSMANN, in his account of the _ alleged bribery offer, said it was his impression L that there was "kiddin; on both sides. The transcript of the story told by GLEITSMANN quotes him as in- sisting that Sergeant CROSWELLtold him that the "offer' was not enough to keep the state trooper's . tar in gasoline.

"The West New York captain, in his account, readily admitted that he went to see Sergeant r53.__ CROSWELL in an effortw to get GALANTE free.
