BERKELEY, CAL, Jan. Clown Mar
shal Lloyd has made vigorous and bitter
statement of his position in the linda
case in the testimony of which it was
stated that he was drunk at the time he
arrested linda.
(Which is the most likely to be the
truth. the testimony of linda and Nelson
and Mathews that was very drunk, or
the testimony of myself, Schramm, Raw
son, Deyine and league. one of their own
withe SEES, ieave for decision to the peo-
pie have endeavored to serve" said the
Marshal.
II think that they will appreciate that 1
have nothing in the way of friendship to
expect from one or two West Berkeley
whisky-sellers and not much more than
hatred from those who try to sell whisky
in West Berkeley"
Lloyd charged that George Schmidt,
who Is a cand Idate for Marshal in the
coming election, has been instrumental
IN circulating the reports regarding the
alleged drunkenness, and SAID: 81 have
done more during my administration to
eradicate the sale of whisky in East Berke-
lev and Strengthening out certain whisky
sellers in West Berkeley than was done
during the previous nineteen years incor-
poration of the town, and 1 take drink
when | feel like it, TOO, and l have no
apology to offer to my constituents for
anv OF my acts"
linda was arrested by Lloyd for keeping
his saloon open after midnight. He was
acquitted of the charge and the Board of
Trustees are con sidering whether to allow
him license or not.
