CITY WILL CARRY
WHITAKER CASE TO
THE HIGHEST COURT
BOARD OF ALDERMEN PASS REso-
LUTON TO THAT
EFFECT
JUDGE ERWIN MARES TALK WANTS A LACE ATTENDANCE
Explains the Nature Of Evidence Of
fered at the Trial, and Also Judges
charge.-swansburs Makes Short
Speech

Determined to uphold the prohibi
ton law, the Board of Mayor and Al
dermen Thursday evening at the reg
ular monthly meeting at the Cit!
Hall, voted to carry the case Of Cliff
ford Whitaker to the Supreme Court
Whitaker had been acquitted in the
Circuit Court a few hours before OF
the charge of drunkenness.
The motion to carry the case to the
states highest tribunal was made by
Alderman Cherry and was seconded
by Alderman McAllister. Before II
was put to a vote City Recorder Err.
win and Alderman Swansburg made
brief talks pertinent to the subject
Judge Erwin, who had attended the
trial in the Circuit Court, explained
the nature Of the evidence, saying that
a number of thoroughly reliable wit
nesses, including Frank Chafin, Whit
Hight Officers Morgan and Stages,
had testified that the defendant in the
case was intoxicated to the extent
that he reeled in his walk. He said
that the defendant had himself admit
ted taking a number of drinks, both of
coca cola and whisky. He then read
the city ordinance, which provides for
the arrest of any person sufficiently
intoxicated to reel on the streets.
Judge Holding, in charging the jury,
had held that the wording of the or
dinance should guide the jury as to
whether or not the defendant was
drunk, explaining that there are many
men Of many minds, and many shades
of intoxication, so that the city ordi-
nance must determine the guilt or in
nocence of the defendant, he said.
Alderman Swansburg, in a brief
talk, stated that the prohibition law
had as well be annulled If those con-
victed under its provisions we're per-
mitted to carry their cases up to the
Circuit Court and secure an acquittal
from jury with the certainty that
the cases would then be dropped. He
said that as a precedent the case
should be carried to the highest
courts.
