CLAYTON HITS .sNooPERs"
Tells Grand Jury to Ignore Liquor
Charges Without Search Warrants

Montgomery. Ala, Dec. 8.Snoop-
ers have lost caste in the court Of
Judge Henry D. Clayton, federal dis
trict judge. The soft-treading spies
who obtain evidence against persons
without taking the time and the trou-
Bile to obtain search warrants car
not give testimony against defendants
in the federal court.
Judge Clayton today not only re-
quested the grand jury not to bring
judgements against persons when
there is evidence to show that search
warrants were not obtained. but in
structed a jury to bring in a YER
dict of not guilty against Ma k ca
pells Of Crenshaw County, charged
with illicit distilling. Federal agents
testified that they found still and
! a path leading from the still TO Ca
lpell's house. They also admitted that
they made their search without q
search warrant. Judge Clayton told
the jury to turn the defendant into the
open air without mark against
him.
Following UP this ruling, Judge
Clayton later mol pressed the cases
against Henry Culverinouse Of Pike
County and ANGUS Burgs Of Coving
ton County, because the evidence had
been obtained without search war
rants.
Lige Campbell Of Crenshaw County,
an ex-service man, was acquitted Of
Illicit distilling. His honorable dis
charge from the army was presented
to the jury by the defense.

IMPROVEMENTS
AT PRUNTYTOWN

The State Board of Control has
recently let contracts for the con
struction Of five new buildings at
the West Virginia Industrial School
for Boys at Pruntytown, which are
to cost in the neighborhood of
$500, 900.
According TO the plans now made
the largest amount of money will be
spent on new school building
which will be constructed on one of
the best sites OF the Industrial
School property. The school will
cost approximately $150,000. The
new school will accommodate hun
drsds Of students OF the institution
and will provide much better and
more convenient means for their
education, the present school build.
ings having been filled to capacity
during past years
The remaining sum OF money
will be spent on a new residence
for the superintendent of the school
which will cost In the neighborhood
OF $4,000, a barn at $4,000 and
other buildings $4,000. The super
intendent's home will be a very at.
tractive structure with every mod
ern convenience.
Owing to the employment of most
OF the boys OF the school in agri-
cultural pursuits a large barn has
been necessity and the institution
has been handicapped for years be-
cause OF the absence OF modern
building of this kind It is thought
that $4,000 will build a very large
and modern barn that will answer
every need OF the institution.
