The Arkansas senate has passed
a bill prohibiting free lunches in sa-
looms and the sale of whiskey to
drunk men. 1t must have been

that which HAS made him drunk;
but it is RIGHT to sell d sober man
that which WILL make him drunk
There are but two stands a man
may take on the whiskey question
for the sale Of it or against it.

Assistant Attorney General Nc
Ghee argued for the state. He char
acterized Senator Andrews as "coy"
and "shrewd," saying that he wanted
the 5000 bad enough. but that he was
too shrewd at first to walk into the
"lions mouth" Diegel. McGhee said,
led his friends into temptation.
Declaring that If Diegel had aided
anyone it was Detective Frank Har-
rison Smiley, not Senator Andrews,
Attorney John A. Connor made
plea for Diegels acquittal
"The state legalized crime when It
gave Smiley commission TO entrap
these men," declared Connor.
Then, with a telephone instrument
before him, Connor went over the tel,
phone conversation alleged to have
been held between Smiley, talking
from room 317, Chttenden hotel, and
Senator Cetone, at the senate cham,
bcr
IT'S a frame-up by Smiley to dupe

ing room into believing he was talk

eted the 5000, he charged.
