Responsible for Loss of Life and
Property

1t has been definitely established
that the terrible loss of life and prop
erty came as direct result OF Gustaf-
sens failure to act at a time when
bloodshed might have been averted
Rioting which broke out on the
night of June | continued with un-
abated fury until four o'clock the next
afternoon. with little or no interfer-
ence from Chief Gustafsen.
Adjt.-Gen. Barrett, OF the Oklahoma
Guard, was emphatic in his charges
that complete fall-down of the local
police was responsible for the rioting.
Gen. Barrett said that he came to
Tulsa with 100 uniformed men from
Oklahoma City and in short time paci-
hed $4,000 armed, milling men, and
said the chief could have done it with
equal facility If he had used his power.
The General said the presence OF six
uniformed policemen or a half dozen
deputy sheriffs at the county building
when whites, bent on taking from the
Jail Dick Rowland, would have pre-
vented the riot
Other Counts Dropped
Counts OF the indictment which were
dropped included not enforcing the
liquor law, not closing disorderly
houses, and OF having used his city
Office to further the interests of his
detective agency.
