RAPS SYSTEM0 OF
LIQUOR DEPUTIES

Declares Murray.

Politicians today wondered whether
the barrage Of Raymond F. Murray,
Democratic candidate for Marion
County prosecutor, against employ
ment of three deputy attorneys
general to prosecute liquor cases for
Prosecutor William H, Remy, Re-
publican candidate, forecasts in
lection of a wet and dry battle as
the dominant issue of the county
campaign.
Addressing the Democratic Pro-
gressive League at the Indiana
Democratic Club Monday night,
Murray attacked the fee plan. under
which the deputies are paid, as ex-
travagant.
There is no reason" he declared
why the many deputy prosecutors
nov employed by Mr.. Remy anc
paid by the county should no en-.
force the liquor laws and the fees
now paid to the deputy attorneys
general be retained in the county
treasury"
Murray pointed out the deputies
already have received $4,000 in fees
for services since Jan. /, and
estimated they will get more than
$36, 900 before the year ends.

and you just naturally follow suit"
the travelling salesman told the man
across the aisle. "Why, one day l
went out with something less THAN
500, and spent exactly half of all
the money / had with me, in an
hour. Funny thing about it was that
1 had just as many pennies left as
l previously had dollars, and only
twice as many dollars as 1 previous

The stranger across the aisle
