For those who are interested, the phrase Mr. Green seemed to have been
trying to use in his reply to Mr. Martillo was probably

   Hock meir nit kein cheinik

which is Yiddish (loose translation) for 
  
   Don't bang a teapot

Hock means bang, cheinik means teapot.  The
meaning is obvious to anyone who has been in the same house with
a small child who has gotten hold of a teapot and something to 
bang it with.
