Efforts are being made to secure
pardon for Earl Loveday and Carl O..
Carlson, now serving life term in the
state prison at Waupun after their
pleading guilty-Loyeday to the muir
der of Tony Pingatore, Kenosha police
officer, and Carlson to being an acces-
Sorry to the murder.
The name of August Blank, the third
member of the trio of bandits who
came here to rob and murder, is not
mentioned in the movement for exec
utive clemency. The formal appeal to
the governor to act in the matter has
not as yet been taken, but it is to be
laid before the governor ii the near
future if any erlcouragem can be
secured for the plan. 1t is not believed
that the men backing the movement 30
free the two men will get any encour-
agement from any of the officials of
Kenosha county, but that on the other
hand, every official avenue will be
blocked to prevent its leading to the
release of these two criminals.
Attorney Gets Files Monday
Attorney P. j. zisch of Milwaukee
who has been named to have charge of
the movement to free Loveday and
Carlson, came to Kenosha on Monday
afternoon and asked that he be fur
nished with copies of all the legal pro-
ceedure in the two cases. These copies
have been prepared and he is later
planning to make an appeal to the dis
trict attorney to aid him in securing
the ear of the governor.
Carlson and Loveday, according to
the records of the court, both pleaded
guilty and they pleaded with the I'M
derstanding that they would receive a
sentence Of the full limit under the
laws of Wisconsin The two men have
been in prison for less than two years
It is declared that both of the men are
in serious physical condition. Loveday
was diseased when he was in Kenosha
and Carlson for some time before he
came to- Kenosha with the party of
bandits had been victim of chronic
asthma.
Storm of Opposition.
When word came to the police de-
partment that the movement had been
started to free Loveday and Carlson
there was a storm of opposition. "It
these men can secure their release
from prison after few years of serv-
ice, it is useless to attempt to enforce
criminal law in Kenosha," declared one
of the officials. "These men were gull
ty of one of the most spectacular and
cold-blooded crimes in the history Of
Wisconsin. They came to Kenoshs
with plans to rob and with designs tc
murder, if necessary, to get away. The
county and city spent thousands OF
dollars securing the arrest of these
men Loveday escaped from Jail anc
another thousand dollars was spent tC
get him back and then for these mer
to even suggest communication of sen
tence is nerve Of the highest order"
