Jury to Get
Vote Fraud
Case Today

Prosecutors today battered at the
defense of John L. Benz, Coffin
henchnlan and primary poll official,
on trial before criminal court jury
charged with marking ballots for
himself after the polls closed.
Grilling Benz, who sat in the wit
ness chair more than an hour this
morning, Prosecutor Judson L. Stark
attempted to show jurors Benz
marked ballots in favor of himself
while illegally occupying chair
with poll officials during tabulation
of votes.
A politician for more than thirty
years. Benz vehemently denied he
voted" himself into Office by using
a blue pencil.
The state in closing arguments
this afternoon will ask the jury to
sentence Benz to the state prison
for five to ten years.
Bolstering Bienz's denial, E. w.
Hoover, official at the same poll,
against whom Stark indicates he
also will file charges, told jurors
Benz was framed by political
enemies" Hoover declared none of
the tabulators with Benz had blue
pencils during the tabulating-a di-
rect violation of election laws.
Benz told jurors he did not
know it was a law violation to par
ticipate in counting of votes cast
for him as candidate for precinct
committeeman.

CLERK, FIRED,
DRAWING FEE
Roland RhoadS, Discharged,
Still Gets Public Money.

Roland Rhoads, former city license
clerk and precinct worker, dis
charged last summer by City Con-
troller William L. Elder for alleged
shady circumstances surrounding
handling of license fees, still is
drawing a salary at the expense of
taxpayers, it was learned today.
County Treasurer Clyde E. Robin
son, Seventh district G. o. P. chair
man, admitted Rhoads is working
in the treasurer's office as a delin-
quent tax collector.

coded to be a knock down" racket
in discounting city license fees,
Rhoads to date has escaped any
criminal action.
Robinson did not disclose Rhoads'
salary, although it is known the dis
charged clerk is working on a fee"
basis, regarded as a political plum. y
At the time RhoadS was fired
from the city position, he had been
assigned to the city hall by Robin

CIVIC GROUPS OPPOSED
BY CHARLES E. CARLL

Irate over the recent secret action
of the city plan commission to per-
nit operation Of a creamery of the
Benner Farms Dairy, Inc, at 1011
North Gladstone avenue, residen-
tial section, residents in the territory
today organized to battle the city
boards move.
After refusing the company per-
mission to use a building at the To-
cation Sept. %, the board voted
secretly to allow the company to
operate for a year provided bona
f1de effort" to find new site was
made in six months, The Times
learned.
The board, in denying the first
petition, declared a dairy in the
district would be menace to
health" and not in harmony with
the city coming law.
Permit Not Assured
That neighborhood protests may
force the commission into its orig
inal position denying the permit
was indicated today when H. B.
Steegs, secretary engineer of the
city plan commission, made a state
ment preparing the way for such
action.
THE Times story erred in CIV
ing the impression that the commits
sion's action in consenting to re-
ceive the petition was equivalent to
its being granted" Steeg said. THE
new petition is an entirely new &C
ton. 1t asks only a temporary per-
mit-for one year. The original
petition was for permanent permit"
Civic League Target
The commissions action was the
target of members of the Sherman
Emerson Civic League Tuesday night
and resolution, opposing the move,
was adopted. Members agreed to
inform persons in the district of
the commissions step to permit
location of the creamery and attend
the session Oct. 81 when the COM
mission is scheduled to approve the
petition.
Albert Neuerburg, civic league
director, declared residents will
fight this matter to the end, carry
ing it to the courts, if necessary.
Property owners in other parts
of the city, where the board has
failed to change its rulings on sim
liar matters, are incensed over the
east side action, it is reported.
Samuel o. DUNCAN, president of
the Polk Milk Company, but said
not to be connected with the new
firm, owns the structure.
