JUDGE TURNS
RISER LOOSE

The Indictment against Michael
Riser, charging him with resisting
and with Gssaulting an internal reve-
nue. officer, there being two ssparabs
counts, was dismissed IN the federal
court at Great Falls, Friday by Judge
G. NJ Pray as stated IN the dispatches
but the grounds for the action are not
given fully. IN the first count Of the
indictment, Riser was charged with
resisting E. z. Koehler, an internal
revenue officer. This indictment was
challenged by the defence on the
ground that the record in the murder
case, tried here, showed that the
state, elected 70 charge Riser with
resisting and assaulting KoehIer as
federal prohibition officer.
AS a prohibition officer, the de-
fence contended, the right Of search
without a search warrant could be
exercised, but as an internal revenue
officer, KoehIer had no right to under
take a search Of residence under
any circumstances. This was sus~
aimed by the court, the indictment
dismissed and the sureties exoner-
tied.
The federal attorneys have in
imated that an appeal from the
uling might be taken, but this is not
Ooked for, though q new indictment

Yet that is exactly what the Easy
Washer will do. The Easy's famous
Vacuum Cup Principle is what accom-
plishes the magic. This principle con-
sists of flushing air, soap and water
back and forth through the fabric by
means of air pressure and suction.
Though the Easy's Vacuum Cup
method of washing is the only method
that will get the clothes clean and do
it SO gently, the principle behind it is
not new. Your grandmother made use
of the same idea when she washed
clothes with funnel-on-a-stick. Years
ago the first Easy Washer adopted this
idea, which is used today in a highly
perfected form.

OFFICER finds
BANDITS AUTO

Continued From Page y
57S-105. Indiana license plates on
the bandit auto were stolen from
Frank Ketchum, II +. Orange St., a
month ago.
Late Friday detectives searched
the apartment OF a woman of the
underworld when they received in
formation that local man was seen
driving an auto bearing the license
number of the bandits auto. PO-
lice believe they have valuable
clew in an initial found i'm the front
OF the book. Handwriting experts
were working in an effort to de-
cipher it.
[. b. Jacobs, filing station at
tendant a. Eastern Ave. and Wash
ington St, said he filled the gas
tank OF an auto similar to the one
used by the robbers. Four men
we're in the auto, he said.
After the holdup the bandits
turned north in Harding st. from
Washington St, police were told and
at Harding and Ohio SITS. a trunk
fell from the rear of the auto. Suit
Of clothts and other wearing apparel
were in the trunk. Papers found In
the trunk lead police t. believe the
robbers might haye-- been in Kan
kakee, H., recently.
Lieuttnant Winkler and squad
said they tracked the auto north in
Harding St. to Michigan St., but lost
trace Of it there.
Police believe the robbers had been
in the city several days before the
robbery. The occupants Of an auto
similar to the bandits car engaged
in a gun duel with Patrolman Carter
in the 1000 block on f.. Market St.
late Wednesday. when the officer
gave chase to the auto after the
occupants had attempted to abduct a
woman.
Reward Of $400 has been posted
for recovery Of ;he money and arrest
of the bandits.
Officials of the Duesenber plant
we're furnished a police guard to-
day to take a duplicate pay roll to
