Maclay Hoyne's public statement
yesterday is a smash at the real gov
eminent of Chicago, the newspapers.
They are above the law and the
courts.
Judges and grand juries ere bossed,
browbeaten and intimidated by the
trust press. Not only does the trust
press hire sluggers and murderers
and protect them from punishment
in the courts, but when they want
to the newspapers can throw a scare
into judges and grand juries to pro-
tect a criminal taxdOdger.
If there Was any man who ought

to have been singled out by States
Ats Hoyne for indictment it was
Julius Rosenwald, exploiter and fake
philanthropist. ROsenwald is hand
in hand with the State street stores
and other big business interests.
Hoyne hit the best pet Of the news
paper trust when he hit Rosenwald.
The public statement Of Hoyne that
the newspapers are openly backing
a notorious criminal ViOlator of tax
laws was the boldest challenge any
public official in Cook county has
ever thrown at the newspapers. 1

the big corporations were lining up
their dummy organizations and their
lawyers yesterday, Chicago Fedora
ton Of Labor officers told what they
think about States, Atty Hoyne's
stand against newspaper govern
ment:
BY JOHN FITZPATRICK,
President C. F. of L.
One way or another the newspapers
get what they want. If a man in pub
lie Office don't yield to them they
discredit him. And, if necessary for
their ends, they go farther and dis
grace him and even destroy him.
They use grand juries and judges
in their. business when that is nee
essary. They protect their sluggers
and murderers. They assist their
millionaire advertisers.
The State street stores paid over
four million dollars in advertising
money to the daily newspapers in
seven months of last year. When
julius Rosenwald, the friend of all
State street, is indicted under Grim
inaI proceedings for violation of tax
laws, they spring to the defense of
ROsenwald.
States Atty Hoyne is the first
public official of large powers in Chi
cago who has dared to face the news
papers and openly stigmatize them
as lawbreakers and hypocrites and
coTUptionists.

Though newspapers set up a glad
cry that Hoyne has abandoned
plans to indict Well-known rich men
for failure to file tax schedules, there
has been only one change in his
plans.
Instead Of trying to indict these
WeIl-knoWn rich men under the GRIM
inaI law they will be prosecuted in
the municipal courts and possibly be-
fore County Judge Scully for mis-
demeanors.
Tax officials who have used their
places on the board Of assessors and
on the board of review to help their
friends in lodging taxes on many
million dollars worth of property will
be Investigated.
Inquiry may be made as to why
real estate owned by Rosenwald has
been let OF with low assessments. On
March IL, 1912, Rosenwald bought
State street lot of the Columbus
Safety Deposit Co. According to the
Tribune and other real estate news
sources, the price paid by Rosenwald
was $2;75O,000. The valuation fixed
by the board Of review was $685.
900 under the actual cash value of the
property as set by the price paid.
When Hoyne started the probe in
to tax frauds he announced he would
not try to get convictions in the &c.
