FOR FAILING TO KEEP Col TERRY
DRUGGAN AND HIS PAL, COL.
FRANKIE LAKE, THE TWO HEAD
BEER LORDS OF CHICAGO. CON-
FINED IN THE COOK COUNTY JAZZ,
HOUSE.

Wednesday afternoon Hon. James
H. Wilkerson, United States District
judge for TIE Northern District Of
Illinois, in his court rooms in the Fed
eral Building, handed down his long
to be expected and far-reaching con-
tempt of court case in connection with
Col. Terry Druggan and Col. frankie
Lake
Judge Wilkerson, the TACT that Wes-
ley Fl. Westbrools, warden Of the
Cook County Jail, for a long time really
permitted Messrs. Druggan and Lake
to roam the streets at large at their
sweet will and it was proven for be-
yond a reasonable doubt thar many
thousands OF dollars belonging to
Messrs. Druggan and Lake found their
way in the pockets Of Warden West
brooks and his army Of assistants who
closed their eyes real tight at every
thing that Coils. Druggan and Lake
wished to do for, with great pleasure
they were allowed almost their full
freedom in the way OF splurging around
taking auto rides with their lady
friends instead Of being locked up be-
hind prison bars and doing time for
violating the established laws of the
land.
It IS safe to say that never before
in the history Of Chicago have the
criminals become SO bold like
Coils. Druggan and Lake, who have
entertained the idea that with their
vast sums Of money that they could
easily override the laws, trample JUS
tice under their corrupt feet and de-
bauch and buy public officials when
ever they were disposed to Do 50.
Notwithstanding the fact that as
warden of the Cook County Jail Mr.
Westbrooks very badly managed
everything in connection with it and
with his eyes wide open he permitted
money to flow through it much more
freely than water; and riots and fight
ing among the prisoners was the order
OF the day.
Mr.. Westbrooks, for all Of his fall
ures to maintain order and his other
short comings only received SEN
