High

Buffalo, N. Y, May 7.-(AP)-
Feeling in western New York ran
high today against two coast
guardsmen held on a charge Of
shooting j. D. Hanson, secretary of
the Niagara Falls Lodge Of Elks.
Hanson is in a Niagara Falls hos
pital in a serious condition. One
bullet entered his head and de-
stroyed his right eye.
Glenn Jennings and Chris Dew,
accused of the shooting, were con-
fined to quarters at Fort Niagara.
They had been detailed to watch
for rum runners along the highways.
Hanson was returning to the Falls
after taking a party of friends to
Lewiston from the silver jubilee
celebration of the north Tonawanda
Lodge Of Elks. The coast guards
men, clad in overalls and sheepskin
jackets, suspecting he was = rum
runner, commanded him to stop.
Hanson apparently thought they
were highwaymen. He tried ia
speed away and the guardsmen fired
several shots. One went through the
windshield and entered the driver
right temple. The car ran into q
rocky bank and stopped.
James Franklin, exalted ruler OF
Niagara Falls Elks, swore out q
warrant harging Jennings and
Dew with assault. State troopers
went to Fort Niagara to make the
arrests, but Captain Beck refused ia
give up the two men.
Plans were made at Niagara Falls
for an indignation meeting.
