FIRE SUSPECTS
BROTHER SUES
Asks $4,000 From Mar
ShaIS After Arrest,

Deputy state Fire Marshals
George w. Myers and Rollin Gran
ger today were charged with hav-
ing exceeded their authority in cauS-
ing the arrest of Bertram Libo-
witz, 80 N. Jefferson Ave, in suit
for $4,000 damages filed against the
officials in Superior Court -Four.
Libowitz was arrested Wednesday
night at Methodist Hospital and
held in city prison until early
Thursday morning, when the fire
marshals complained to police that
Bertram Libowitz prevented them
from entering Methodist Hospital
room of his brother, Harold, %. Har-
old is charged with arson in connec-
ton with the Traugott clothing
store explosion. He is suffering
from burns received in the blast,
Aug. 26.
The Libowitz suit filed by Attor-
ney Ira NJ. Holmes, attorney also
for Harold, charges the fire mar
shals had no more authority than
ordinary citizens to force their way
into the sick mans room. because
the law provides that they can not
make arrests. and if they desire to
question any one. they must sub
poena him. In case the witness fails
to respond to the subpoena, the only
way they can get action against
him is through a court order.
Libowitz was discharged on the
charge of resisting an officer when
the deputy marshals failed to ap-
pear against him in municipal court
Thursday afternoon.
The suit alleges his arrest was
"false and malicious" and his credit
and reputation" have been injured.
