COURT DECLARES RUFF
ELIGIBLE FOR PAROLE
Editor Who Aided in Convicting San
Francisco Boss Wins Fight Now
in His Behalf.

SAN FRANCISCO. April li-By n de-
cision today OF the state supreme court.
Abraham Ruef. former political boss of
San Francisco who is serving fourteen
years in the state penitentiary at San
Quentin. under conviction OF having ac-
cepted brihes. becomes eligible for i'm
mediate parole. The decision. however.
although making it mandatory that his
application be considered by the state
board of prison directors, in no way di-
rects them to grant it.
A persistent campaign in behalf OF
Ruef has been waged by Fremont Older.
managing editor Of the San Francisco
Bulletin. who was one OF the foremost
his prosecution. Although only one OF
many indicted in connection with graft
in San Francisco Ruef alone was con
victed. and 1t has since been argued in his
behalf that to keep him in Jail while
his alleged associates walk free is an in
justice.
Regulation Violates Statute.
Since the law establishing paroles went
into effect the board of prison directors
has ruled that no application would BIT
considered by 1t until the applicant had
served at least one-haif of his net term.
The court held today that this regulation
is in violation of the statute and tina
any prisoner becomes eligible to apply
for parole after he has served one yeaa.
Ruef already has served a little more
| than three years.
| This construction of the statute also
| makes eligible John j. Mcnamara
| former secretary of the International
Brotherhood of Bridge and Structural
Iron Workers. convicted in Los Angeles
of an attempt to dynamite the plant OF
| the Lewllyn Iron Works. His brother
James B. Mcnamara, who wrecked the
Los Angeles Times building with a loss
of twenty-one lives. was sentenced to San
Quentin for life, and is not eligible for
parole.
