A YEAR IN
JAIL FOR
H0VLEY
Singing Verbal Castigation
Given Brawley Banker by
Federal Judge in Passing
Sentence for Mann Act
Violation.
Especial to The Press.)


LOS ANGELES, March S.-Pete,
B. Hovley, Brawley banker and
rancher was sentenced to IL months
in the Orange county Jail, with fine
of $1,000, by U. S. District Judge Bled-
soc yesterday afternoon following his
plea of guilty to the charge of violat-
ing the Mann white slave act in hav-
ing brought his niece, Mss Barbara
Phillips, now Mrs. William Staaldynen
from Chicago to Los Angeles in the
fall of 1919 for an immoral purpose. A
Is Gays, stay of execution was al
loved the defendant, who is at liberty
OH bond Of $4,000.
When the case was called before
Judge Bledsoe, Assistant u. S. Attor-
ney Green. who has had charge o. tie
case from the beginning, made state
ment of the circumstances surround
ing the bringing of the young woman
from the east to this city, supplement-
ed by number of dispositions signed
by citizens and public officials OF Wau-
sau, Wis, the former nome Of the com
planning witness, to the effect that
the reputation of the woman was not
of the best. An exhaustive investiga-
tion was made along this line by
agents of the department of justice
and legal representatives of the de-
covering some time, was involved in
these statements made under oath.
Hovley's attorney, George H. Wood
ruff, followed with long statement,
declaring that many of the charges
made by the complaining witness were
not true, especially as to the charge
that Hovley had paid her way to Los
Angeles. This denial was made the
subject of question that Judge Bled-
soc later on put to Hovley. Hovley
had said that the girl had made a
very fine table cover, for which she
asked $1O0, that he had bought it from
her, and that she had used that money
to come to California with him.
"Have YOU ever seen the table
cover?" asked the court.
"No." replied Hovley.
"Did you ever get it ?" followed the
court.
"No,' said Hovley with a shamed
face.
The court intinated that the table
cover story would hardly stand the
tect Of inouirv.
Hovlev. while admitting his immor-
nj relations with the girl, asserted
that she had told him in hotel in
Chicago that she had been guilty of
acts of indiscretion before. He admit
tod that he knew Of the Mann white
slave act. but stated that he though
he was not guilty if he did no pay her
wav to this city.
A number of the friends. and busi-
ness acouaintances of Hovley. living
in the Imperial Valley, wrote cdanmun-
ications to the court calling his atten-
lion to the high place that the de-
fendant has occupied in valley COM
runity. The court remarked that
these friends of Hovlev must hang
their heads in shame when they under
stand the crime he is charged with
and to which he has pleaded guilty.
"To bring a pure Young girl from
the East here in violation of the Mann
white slave act, is one thing; to bring
q matured woman who is not new to
the game is another" said the court
"but society must be protected. The
court then discussed the relations eX-
