There is suspicion that the police

There is suspicion that the police
committee fund provided for at the
meeting of the town council. Monday,
is to be used in the liquor spotter
service. or kindred purpose. This sus-
picion is based on the fact that in the
latest liquor seizures case, the actual
sale which formed the basis for ac-
ton was obtained OIL the spotter plan.
The story is in effect that a resident
of Westerly who knows the ropes
fairly fell was engaged as the detec-
tive or liquor spotter. He met an ac-
quaintance whom he asked to go with
him to get a drink, and the invitation
was accepted. The drinks were pur-
chased and the detective also bought
a flask of whiskey.
After the evidence was secured, the
friend of the detective was forced to
become part of the spotter service,
regardless of his personal wishes. He
was called upon to certify to the cor
rectness of the statement Of the de-
tective and also summoned into court
to give evidence for the prosecution,
very much against his will.
