That S. W. Strauss, the financier, has been ill for three weeks was learned Friday with the arrest of a motorist by a traffic policeman stationed beneath the windows of Mr. Strauss’s suite at the Ambassador to prevent unecessary noise. The driver was charged with disorderly conduct for unecessary use of his auto horn.
Mr. Strauss, inquiry at the hotel revealed, underwent a minor operation, but is now recovering rapidly.
