Helpful, Says Doran

WASHINGTON, Dec. 18-Conf1-
Dental information obtained from
California telephone companies I'M
der a court order there is likely to
prove of considerable value to fed
eral prohibition forces, in the opin-
ion of Prohibition Commissioner
James M. Doran.
Doran said that Throughout the
country generally telephone compa-
MES usually have held that private
numbers and addresses of their pa
irons were confidential. In the Dis
trict of Columbia, he said, there has
been some discussion of the ques-
ton, and congress has considered
opening telephone records to police
and federal authorities.
The California courts decision
was the only one Of its kind that
could be recalled by officials. Doran
said he could not say definitely how
widely the decision could be ap-
piled until he had studied it.
In the case of Roy Olmstead of
Seattle, the United States supreme
court ruled that information OBJ
tanned by dry agents by tapping
telephone wires was admissible as
evidence in prohibition cases. The
California decision was viewed as
further step in the direction OF
making telephone records available

CITY MAN DIES
IN RUM FIGHT
Ex-ConviCt Killed in Battle

BIZ United Press
CAMBRIDGE, Ind, Dec. 49,
Search is being made by authorities
today for the liquor runners who
shot and killed William Kempe Jr.,
%, indianapolis, former convict, in a
hijacking battle near here Tuesday
night.
1t is believed the shooting oc-
Cured when Kempe and an I'M
identified companion attempted to
rob an automobile driver and two
companions OF 100 gallons of liquor.
Two men in the liquor car fled i'm
mediately after the shooting.
License plates on the car Kempe
and his companions occupied were
issued to Roy Piper, 635 Virginia
avenue, Indianapolis. An extra set
OF plates found in the car we're is
sued to Edward Sizomere, 1862 South
Belmont avenue, Indianapolis.
According to information obtained
by police the hijackers passed the
rum car and opened fire and imme-
ditely were answered by shots from
its occupants. A submachine gun
was used by the hijackerS.
The automobile in which Kempe
and his companion were riding car
ried a red light and a siren, which
led officers to believe it may have
the intention to make it appear as
police car in the attempt to steal
the liquor.
The body of Kempe was taken
first to Greencastle and later
brought to an indianapolis nlortu-

appealed to Willis to listen to his
story. Two detectives previously had
questioned the man regarding the
murder.

FORCED TO AID
IN DRY RAIDS
Addresses of Patrons No
Longer Held Secret by

B0OTLEGGERS TRAPPED
Employees of Company Go
With Sponge Squad on
Liquor Drives.

BIZ ScrtppS-Ho1card Newspaper Alliance
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 17-Use
of the Pacific Telegraph and Tele-
phone Company by the prohibition
department has been revealed here
as the latest war tactics of the drys.
William G. Walker, prohibition
administrator for northern Cali
fornia, admitted that the big phone
company, wing of the American
Telephone and Telegraph Company,
has been furnishing dry raiders with
the addresses of confidential tele-
phone patrons and also has been as
Sisting the raiders by removing the
phones of alleged bootleggers for use
in the courts as evidence.
The new procedure has been used
for the last eight Saturday nights
in raids on alleged bootleg establish
ments. Previously, in trapping of
bootleggers through secret phones,
an order of liquor was asked for
over the phone and the liquor de-
livered. This, Walker said, was I'M
satisfactory because it trapped only
the man who delivered the booze.
Under the cooperative agreement
a double affidavit is made out calling
for the cooperation of the phone
company. After liquor has been or
dered, the agents makes an affidavit
that he believes liquor is being
sold at a certain number.
The number then is traced to an
address furnished by the phone
company and an affidavit to this
effect is made out by the Office
manager of the "P. T. & IT,
The agents and an employe of the
phone company then make the raid
together and the latter removes the
phone as evidence for the court.
Phone company officials declare
that they are forced to cooperate
with Uncle Sans agents. United
States Commissioner Arthur Fiske
admitted, however, that the Office
manager of the phone company, E
T. O'Connel, came to his Office in
company of Herman Vandersee, as
sistant United States attorney, and
started reading the information
voluntarily.
The same tactics were attempted
on the Pacific Gas and Electric
Company to force it to notify dry
agents if and when a sudden jump
in gas consumption of any patron
indicated installation of a still. The
gas company refused to inform upon
it's patrons until after the raid had
been effected and arrest made.

IMPEACHMENT
ROW Started
in LYNNHURST
Town Board Moves to Gust
Mayor and Finds Itself
in Legal Tangle.
KELLOGG SHOWS FIGHT
Chairman of Trustees Is
Fined in Weapon Case,
and Appeals.

With a resolution to impeach
Ernest Kellogg, mayor" OF Lynn
hurst, passed unanimously at mass
meeting at school No. IA Tuesday
night, citizens Of LynnhurSt were in
a legal labyrinth today.
Kellogg's impeachment must come
before the town board.
The town board, with the eXcep-
ton OF Kellogg and H. w. Powell
seems to be holding Office Illegally
Kellogg, willing to resign his po-
sition as board chairman and
mayor" in peaceful times, is an
tagonistic toward any attempt to
impeach him or to force his resig-
nation under fire"
He has engaged legal aid to COM
bat efforts to GUST him.
Fined on Weapon Charge
Kellogg, fined 500 and costs for
carrying concealed weapons and
500 and costs for drawing deadly
weapons, at a hearing in Judge
Wetter's court Tuesday afternoon,
as a result of hostilities at the
Lynnhurst town board meeting
Monday night, appealed the verdict
under bond of $4,000.
Meeting at school No. ID Tuesday
night, under auspices of the Wayne
Township Civic League, and the
Lynnhurst Civic League, citizens Of
the town and surrounding territory
considered the situation which has
arisen from annexation of 2,164
acres to the town.
A resolution for Impeachment"
of Kellogg was introduced by F. S.
Galloway and was passed unani-
mously.
Cooler leaders Of the two leagues,
after the mass meeting, met and
decided upon peaceful" campaign,
if possible. 1t was indicated today
that Kellogg's resignation would be
sought.
Means Long Court War
Impeachment proceedings would
be possible only after long court
battle, it was indicated. Kellogg
contends that five members of the
town board of trustees, selected by
himself and H. w. Powell, holdover
board member, were elected lille
gally, because five days written
notice was not given.
The town board would be required
to impeach Kellogg and can not
act unless its legality is established.
Without court proceedings, Powell
alone would be legally entitled to
sit on Kellogg's case.
Kellogg today indicated he had
intended to resign from the board,
because it takes too much time"
However, he indicated he would not
resign under fire" and said any
impeachment proceedings would
be an antagonistic move"
He did not attend the civic meet
ing Tuesday night, at which sixty
district chairmen were appointed to
circulate petitions among lot own
ers for Instrumentation Of the an
nexed territory. Each district chair
man will name three or four helpers.
Board Members Speak
Don Branigin, James MCGUIRE
and Claude Williamson, town board
members elected by Kellogg and
Powell, spoke at the civic meeting.
Branigin presented motion for
reorganization of the town board
Monday night and Kellogg, his po-
sition as president, threatened, de-
clared the meeting adjourned.
When board members protested,
Kellogg drew a revolver and backed
to the door, where he was disarmed
by twenty-five spectators. His ar
rest and fines grew out of the Incl
dent.
