EDITORS ARRESTED FOR

Ohio Legislative Committee Has
No Legal Existence.

COLUMBUS, O, May BE. e,
Cook. editor OF the Columbus Citizen
and Charles j. Pretzman, former
president OF the Columbus Chamber
of Commerce, were today given a pre-
llminary hearing en- the charge OF re.
fusing to testify before the senate
committee that was appointed to in
vestigate boodling in the present leg
islature.
The decision in these cases, II Ia
expected, will govern the action In
the case OF c. c. Lyons, OF the Scripps.
McRae League, A. c. Grouse, OF the
Cincinnati Post, and N. ID. Cochran
and Ralph LeBlonde, OF the Toledo
News-Bee, who are also under arrest
for refusing to testify. The defense
of the men will be that the commit
tee has no legal existence and no au-
thority to take testimony.
The refusal OF the men to testify.
however, was based largely on the
charges that the purpose of the COM
mittee was to give immunity baths to
members OF the Legislature who
might later be indicted by the grand
jury, the senate having insisted upon
appointing the probe committee over
the protests of Gov. Harmon and
Prosecutor Turner and while the
grand jury was already probing the
bribery charges.
