RUM RAIDERS
CATCH FREED
Federal Judge Opposes Dry
Agents Tactics,

BIZ Times Special
FIT. WAYNE, Ind, April 13.-Even
a man suspected of breaking the
prohibition law has some rights,
Federal Judge Thomas w. Slick held
here when he released William S.
Shearer after his counsel had filed
habeaS corpus proceedings.
1t was shown that Shearer was
arrested by sheriff's deputies and
federal agents a half-mile from
where they found a still, and that
the property where it was located
had been leased by Shearer and
that he had no interest in the liquor
making alleged to be carried on
there. He was held without a
charge being placed.
Judge Slick condemned prac-
tice of agents in arresting persons
and holding them without filing
charges. Every man has right
to confer with an attorney and has
a right to bail unless he is being
held for murder" the court said.
George L. Rulison, assistant dis
trict attorney, asked the court if he
would consider it too harsh to hold
Shearer until charges could be filed,
to which the judge replied:
II consider every minute harsh
when a man is being held contrary
to his rights"

convene here Monday for further
consideration of the county's tragic

ing discussed here again, following
