ASHCROFT QUITS,
 LITIY BECOMES
 MEMPHIS MAYOR
Business Man Named to Succeed Hays As Chief
 of Police Departmnt.

Memphis, Aug. 21.-T. c. Ashcroft, today resigned as mayor of Memphis and was succeeded by Harry H. Lit ty, former railroad man and re- gently engaged in the real estate business.
 William J. Hayes retired from the office of crief Of police, to which he recently was appointed, and the police department of the city was re- organized by the election of J. J. Quinlan, a business man, to the of flee of chief. The appointment of Hayes as inspector, the reduction of two captains and several sergeants, and the dismissal of Chief of De- tectives w. H. Couch.
 Ahcroft, against whom custer pro- ceeding were pending, in a statement given out when his resignation was presented to the commission late today, declared that he was "sick and tired of the job", charged that polit- ical enemies prompted the charges made in the custer suit which he declared were groundless, and de- tended his administration.
 The custer suit was based on al leged non-enforcement of the pro- hibition laws.
 Ennis Dougles, former commits sioner of police, who was named as a co-defendant in the suit, resigned some weeks ago.
 Ashcroft, former newspaper man, was elected by the commission as mayor last year, when E. H. Crump resigned after second custer suit had been filed against him. Crump won the first custer in the state SUI preme court.
