"You we're quite impatient that he had

Woods, were you"
~ reminded him that he had not men,

"Didn't he tell you he would rather

Officer Burns, Officer Shafer and Joseph
Larkin were the informants on whose
word the charge that the Mayor had been
seen at late and unseemly hours with loose

thought the Mayor ought to have gone TO
other citizens
"Didn't the police have more to do with
these women than With other citizens?"
The laughter and pounding for order
which followed drowned the witnesses re-

"When you charged that the Mayor Wis

prostitutes at late and unseemly hours, you

"Three OF your officers had to resign on
