New Administration Says Liquor
and Vice Must Go on
South Side.

Chicago, ILL.,, May 12.-The cab
arets of the Second and Third Wards,
known in the daily papers as the
"black and tans." are experiencing a
tough time since the advent of the
new administration. Police captains
led raiding parties into the amuse-
ment resorts Thursday night, scatter
ing hundreds of merrymakers and
arresting % men and women on
charges ranging from violation of the
search and seizure act to disorderly
conduct. Liquor was found in most
of the places. while the patrons were
principally white. AS this Is the sec
ond raid since the advent of the new
mayor. 1t is apparent that the pleas
ure palaces which have enjoyed i'm
munity and protection under the
Thompson administration are to be
wiped out. The new administration
likewise has put stop to the wide
open gambling. which. 1t was changed.
prevailed in the district. Things are
as quiet along State street as in a
Sunday school.
The first announcement Of q col
ored appointee under the new Dem
ocratic mayor was that of Atty. Earl
b. Dickerson, who has been made As
sistant Corporation Counsel at 50, 400
per year. Mr.. Dickerson. who is an
able young lawyer and graduate Of
the Chicago and Illinois universities,
is also Commander Of the Giles Post
Of the American Legion. He took an
active part in the campaign. Bishop
|Carey's son, David Carey, who held
an Investigators job In the corpora
ton counsel's office under the Thomp-
SON regime. has been held over by the
Democrats and given a raise in sal
|ary. The former colored Thompson
aids are fading from the city hall
picture rapidly.
The two city firemen suspended 90
days ago because Of Klan affiliations,
after sensational trial which
brought the head of the Klan here to
defend them, were ordered re-instat-
ed yesterday. The reason given was
that the civil service commission had
failed to act upon the charges filed.
