Worring
(Continued From First Page }

his client had not acted in good
faith and tried honestly to untangle
the brothers difficulties with the In
ternal Revenue Bureau.
Mr.. Rover defended Sadur's posi-
tion that he had right to claim,
in preparing revised schedule for
the income tax returns of 1885,
that the $4,000 which Emmitt had
said he paid for protection was a
deductible item. The Government
contends it was not.
Refers to Appeals Court.
"The Court of Appeals has had
something to say about protection
being deductible," the attorney
added, land maybe the Supreme
Court will have something to say
some day."
He charged the revenue investi-
gators represented to Mr.. Sadur
that the Warning inquiry was merely
tax adjustment matter, with the
books of the numbers business at
issue, and then sprang prosecution
that involved him, based on a theory
of expenditures of which he had not
even been warned.
In the opening argument for the
defense, Harry T. Whelan, counse
for the Warnings, declared they were
prosecuted only because Emmitt re.
fused to name the police officers hi
said he was bribing.
If Emmitt had acceded to the re-
quest of John R. Cox, agent in charge
of the intelligence Office Of the In.
ternal Revenue Bureau, and giver
these names, the attorney declared
no tax case would have been brought
Mr.. Whelan read testimony ir
which Mr.. Cox said he was working
on another case, involving grating
policemen" and in private con.
versation at his Office with Emmitt
suggested it would be helpful If the
head of the Warning business woulC
divulge his alleged police pay roll
Asked If he had promised to drop
the income tax case if Emmitt COM
piled, Mr.. Cox said no, 1--WE didnr
get that far" since it was obvious
Emmitt wouldn't talk"
If Emmitt Warning had given the
names of the policemen to whom he
claimed to be paying bribes," Mr.
Whelan said, you jurors would not
have had to spend IL days here"

Santa Claus Job
Goes Begging in
Leonordtown
srecial Dispatch to the Star.

LEoNARDrOWN, Nd, Dec. A.
Wanted, one Santa Claus, by . local
department store!. Pay 81 per day
until Christmas"
But the above Job has no ap-
plicants, Louis Nathanson stated
here today. All the old men who
have played Santa here of and on
for night onto some IL years have
been taken home by Father Time,
and others just don't believe in
Santa and his long white whiskers
and all his reindeer, it seems. Others
are on relief rolls, and feel that 81
per day is not enough, and its too
cold a job, to play Santa, Mr..
Nathanson has found.
The hours for the job are not 80
very long-about two and one half
in the morning and two and one
half in the afternoon, but, neverthe-
less, the Job has been open q week
or more.
One opinion has been advanced
that the kiddies have become too
sophisticated to believe in Santa
anyway. and that the older folks
are just beginning to realize it.
