MAYORS GRAND JURY
PLAN GIVEN SETBACK
Governor Refuses to Instruct
Attorney-Gene to Indorse
Proposed Petition

After listening for several hours "a
what purported TO be reasons for call
ing "A grand jury in Wayne county I'M
mediately, but what In reality was q
violent attack on Prosecutor Shep-
herd by Attorney o. +. Hunt, repre-
senting Mayor Thompson, Gov. Os-
born refused, Saturday. to do the bid
ding of the mayor and instruct Atty
Gen. Wykes TO indorse q petition for
grand jury, which would virtually
take the graft probe out OF the hands
OF Mr.. Shepherd.
The governor, before whom the
hearing was conducted In the execu-
tive office In Lansing, could not un-
derstand the mayors motives In the
face of the fact that Sheppard and
his special assistant, Chas. t. Viii
kins. are lawyers, with better under
standing of the situation than Thomp-
son, and have shown no inclination to
shirk their duties.
All the principals In the graft probe,
the governor learned, except Thomp-
son. are agreed that the calling Of a
grand jury at this time would In real
ity hamper the work, but the mayor.
urged on by his political henchmen,
could not see 1t that way. Gov. Os-
born asserted that he has confidence
in the judgment and ability OF Shep-
herd and Wilkins, and could see no
reason whatever for supplanting
them.
According to Mr.. Wilkins, the gov.
ernor practically told the mayor that
his unreasonable demand for q grand
jury Immediately. was like firing from
the rear on Shepherd, ,cvand actually
helping the accused aldermen. who
wish for nothing better than the dis
comfiture and embarrassment Of the
prosecutor and his assistants who are
endeavoring to convict them.
