IMMUNITY

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 20
Abe Ruef is trying to secure as
much as he can, with as little in
jury to himself as possible. He
Is as bright as ever.
This was the statement made
here today by Assistant District
Attorney Fred L. Berry, who has
been conducting negotiations with
Ruef in relation to Ruef's reward
for appearing as a witness in the
trial of former Mayor Eugene e.
Schmitz, charged with bribery.
"Our negotiations are at an
end" continued Berry. Il will
have to take the matter UP. with
District Attorney Fickert for his
decision. For myself, I would not
trade with Ruef on any PROPOSE
tion. Ruef wants complete i'm
munity from further prosecution
before he will even tell what he
will testify to. He wants all in
dictments against him quashed.
There is a prison board rule that
prevents a prisoner from being
paroled II there are indictments
standing against him."
Can't BE Compelled.
Ruef cannot be compelled to
testify against Schmitz, District
Attorney Fickert thinks. Fickert
Is not inclined to dismiss the in
dictments suspended over Ruef
If the ex-boss doesn't testify the
case of the former mayor under
the gas rate bribery indictments
is "in a bad way"
