Citizens Spokesman
Sees Court Power
Too Broad"

George E. Sullivan. representing
the Federation Of Citizens Associ-
alton, appeared today before a
special House subcommittee as the
first witness to oppose passage Of
the new Juvenile Court bill.
Mr.. Sullivan read into the rec
ord a resolution recently passed
by the executive committee of the
federation. 80
He said that the bill was de-
signed to give unlimited powers to
the Juvenile Court judge, that it
was very broadly drawn and pro-
vided only a reciew Of the courts
decision by special appeal.
Hits UnprOtectiOn
During his testimony, he ex.
planned several technicalities that
he charged would arise in admin
iStration, Of the act that he de-
clared would not give the children
proper protection.
Following Mr.. Sullivan's testi-
mony the subcommittee adjourned
until Friday morning, when others
in opposition to the bill will be
heard.
Mr.. Sullivan was preceded on
the witness stand by Walter s. Uf.

the measure. Mr.. Ufford stressed
the provision which provides for

Congressional leaders today
called on the Cabinet to sift re-
ports that Post Office inspectors
had hampered Justice agents in
their efforts to track down no.
torious outlaws.
Acting on q resolution intro
duced in the House by Representa-
tive Short (R.) Of Missouri, Chair
man Mead Of New York, Of the
Post Office Committee, requested
Postmaster General Farley to in
vestigate the accuracy Of the re-
ports.
Shorts resolution demanded
that Farley and Attorney General
Cummings submit their versions
Of the controversy to the House.
Under legislative rules, the resolu-
ton must be acted on within seven
days. It is expected Chairman
Summers Of Texas, Of the Judici-
airy Committee, will ask the At
torney General to make an inquiry
in his department.

officials last week following the
capture of desperate Harry Camp
bell and Sam Coker, mail rob-

According to the officials, sew
eral postal inspectors were in
Toledo at the time Hoover's men
were preparing to trap the out
laws. A request by G-Men for help
in making the capture was re-
fused by the postal agents, they
added.
