TAPPING GRAND JURIEs MUST

Tapping grand juries for political
purposes must end" This is what
States Atty Hoyne said yesterday
when he asked Judge Burke to cite
E. J. Davis, secretary of the Anti
Saloon league, into court for con-.
tempt. An attachment was issued for
the arrest of Davis. He was taken
into custody this morning.

matter how far it may reach-it will
be successfully proved that nobody
can make use of the grand jury for
private purposes"

JUDGE HEAP WAS WILLING TO
GIVE COUPLE EcHANCE

The Boston Store lost yesterday.
Young John Fitzgerald, who told
the stores detectives that he and his
wife Mary-only 1S-were hungry
when he was stopped with a Boston
Store overcoat on his arm, was freed.
John told Judge Heap the same
thing in the S. Clark street court yes
terday. And Judge Heap, not re-
sponsible to the Boston Store or any
other State street interest, let John
out.
The Fftzgeralds admitted to the
Judge that they were trying to steal
an overcoat from the Boston Store
last Saturday. Their excuse was
hunger. -
In spite of the testimony of the
Boston Store cops, the boys admis-
sion and his apparent guilt, Judge
Heap saw a good way to satisfy JUS
tice even though the interests Of the
Boston Store might be sighted. So
he freed Fitzgerald on parole.
The young pair left the courtroom
for the plant of the Mercury Manu-
featuring Co., where George Bulley,
the president, has job for the hus-
band.
