HUGH 0'D0NNELL WINS
SUPREME COURT VICTORY
FLouisiana's Highest Tribunal
Sets Aside Conviction and
Jail Sentence

Hugh A. O'Donnell. Philadelphia globe
uotter lecturer and newspaper business
manager, today won a Louisiana Supreme
Court decision that leaves him victor in a
battle which for months was the sensation
of New Orleans.
The court unanimously reversed a GRIM
inal court verdict which had convicted
O'Donnell of libeling Mayor Behrman and
the New Orleans Commission Council while
publisher Of the New Orleans American
last January. He was sentenced to four
months in prison after trial in which
Mayor Behrman, Commissioner of Public
Safety Newman and other city officials
were witnesses.
During a city Cleanup" campaign
started by the American the paper pub
nshed an editorial which alleged that the
Mayor and other officials had taken part
In race-track deals in New Orleans Mayor
Behrman, Commissioner Newman and the
other Commissioners promptly filed suit for
criminal libel. This step and the subse-
quent moves in the Americans law and
order crusade created a furore in the
city, which was alleged to be honeycombed
with vice and misrue.
When Mayor Behrman was called to the
stand he admitted that he and others of the
city Commission had taken part in race
track chickering's, H. d. ("Curley") Brown
owner of the Havana race track, testified
that ne mad met Mayor Behrman in New
york and Chicago to arrange, in friend
~ way Tor Brown to race in New Orleans
The O'Donnell libel suit is said by racing
experts In New Orleans to have killed horse
racing In that city. ODonneu called as a
witness a New Orleans race-track Official
who made admissions as to the manner in
which gambling was conducted at the track
Following this testimony, the District At
enrney prosecuted the racing officials, ac-
c1sing them OF violating the State anti
Dookmaking statute, known as the Locke
law. Recently the officers were found
guilty with sentence suspended. 1t is be-
lieved that bookmaking at the New Orleans
track Is now thing Of the past and that
It's exodus marks the end Of horse racing
there.
