Bedding Professor Files Papers Against Attorney General in
 Grade Crossing Fight
SAYS DELAY EVASION AND
 EFFORT TO SLOW JUSTICE
New Maneuver Again Puts Official
 on Defensive-Courts Already Have Ordered Him to Begin Ac- tion to Remove Public Utilities
 Commission Members - Answer Tiled on New Trial Plan.

Hartford, Oct. 27 P)-A petition to the superior court that the at- torney general of the state be cited to show cause why he should not be adjudged in contempt of court was filed by Prof. Albert Levitt of Redding of Superior Court Clerk Lucius P. Fuller here today. The petition sets out the issuing by the judge on February 6 of a peremp- tory writ of mandamus directing and enjoining the attorney general moval from office of the present commissioners of the public utilities commission for material neglect of duty.
 It also mentions the appeal of the attorney general to the supreme the supreme court on July 9 against the attorney general, holding that there was no error in the issuance of the writ and that the attorney general should proceed to file the complaint as directed by the su- perior court.
 Four Months Pass
 "Nearly four months have gone by since the decision of the supreme court was given" says Prof. Levitt in his petition. During that entire time the mandatory writ has been in force and effect. But the attor- ney general has refused and is re- fusing to obey that mandatory writ"
 Prof. Levitt has also filed a mo- tion that the attorney generals ap- peal from the recent decision of Judge Allyn l.. Brown be not all lowed. Following the supreme court decision on the peremptory writ, the attorney general filed 8 petition for new trial or rehear- ing on the ground that the attor- ney general should be given oppor- unity to show that some of the all legations of Professor Levitt's or ISlIldl ColnpldlHl were 1nanlleStly un- true.
 A motion that the petition be dis missed as res adjudicata and for other reasons was filed and urged by Professor Levitt. and Judge Brown granted his motion and dismissed the attorney gen. erals petition. Then the attorney general filed an appeal alleging er- TOTS in Judge Browns rulings.
 Claims Delay Sought
 Prof Levitt now moves that the appeal be not allowed because it is taken, he alleges, to delay the pro- cesses of justice, and presents no question which calls for revision by the supreme court. The motion will undoubtedly be taken under consid- e"ation by Judge Brown.

INDIAN CLAIMS
 MADE BASIS OF
 SUIT BY JONES
Suit Against Power Com mission Negatived by
 Interior Department

The claim of hereditary rights cf an Indian chief residing in Ketchi- kan forms the basis of the suit just filed in Washington, D. C., by J. T. Jones, Tacoma, for an in- junction preventing the Federal Power Commission from issuing a final license to the zellerbach in- terests of California to water power project at Carol Inlet, near Ketchikan.
 Local officials of the United States Forest Service, pointing out that this claim of Jones has been rejected three times by the Fed eral Interior Department, are con- fident his present suit will likewise fall to the ground. The only pos sible effect it can have, they be- lieve, would be to delay the issuance of the Zellerbach permit which is the next step in the establishment of pulp and paper industry at Ketchikan.
 Due to Act Soon
 The Power Commission, it is un- derstood, is ready to consider and act upon the Zellerbach application for a final license as soon as cer- tain data on the dam construction has been supplied by the engineers who represent I. and J. D. zeller- bach, applicants.
 That the Jones' suit can serve to delay the Commissions decision is readily apparent. But it is hoped that the Commissions legal coun- sel will urge immediate considera- tion of the matter by the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia. All phases of the matter are dealt with in a case relating to the Jones' claim which was initiated before the local United States Land Office in Alaska, and carried d through the Commissioner of the General Land Office and, as a last resort, to the Secretary of Interior.
 Rules Out Jones
 The local Land Office held against Jones. Its decision was up- held by the Commissioner of the General Land Office, and, upon appeal by Jones to the Secretary of
  Interior, that official, in a ruling made by Joseph Dixon, First As- sistant Secretary, affirmed the Commissioners action.
 The original hearing before the local Land Office was held in Ket- chikan in May, 1928, United States Commissioner J. w. Kehoe acting
