SLOT MACHINES
CASE IS HEARD
Taken To Superior
Court From Recorders
Judgment

J. Reid Crawford, of Wilmington,
was found guilty in recorders court
yesterday morning of possessing,
storing and maintaining illegal slot
machines and was fined 5000.
He noted an appeal to superior
court.
Crawford is one of four men for
whom Judge Alton A. Lennon had
capiases issued back in September
after city and county police seized
more than 100 slot machines in
raids on warehouses in the city.
In an effort to speed the appear
ance in court of the other three de.
PENDANTS, none of whom has been
taken yet, Judge Lennon yesterday
signed an order calling for the sheriff
to confiscate and destroy the other
machines seized in the raids unless
the owners in person or through
counsel come into open court to
claim them prior to 10 a.. m. Mon
day.
Trial of the cast in court yesterday
morning was brief. City Patrolman
L.. E. Skies testified that Crawford
gave him the keys to a warehouse
at Third and Castle streets where
Is Of the machines were stored and
Sheriff c. David Jones testified as
to a conversation he had with CraW-
The Wilmington morning star., 1940-11-15

ford relative to the seizure OF 70
machines at the P. and F. Motor
express depot. Jones said he gained
the impression then that Crawford
owned the machines but did not at
any time testify that Crawford had
admitted ownership of them.
Other men for whom capiases
have been issued and are outstand.
ing in connection with the seized
slot machines are Harold Laing,
Clyde Leonard, and Jimmie Edwards.
Crawford's attorneys said yesterday
morning it is their hope the case
can be tried in superior court at the
current term.
Crawford came into court to sur
render yesterday morning.
Previously attorneys for Fred
Morris, of Richmond, Va, had
claimed ownership of the machines
and had secured an order in federal
district court ordering the sheriff
and city officers to show cause why
the machines should not be released.
This week Judge l. M. Meekins, who
signed that order, signed another
dismissing the show cause order.
The warrant on which Crawford
was tried alleges that he did own,
store, keep, possess, rent, let on
shares, maintain and keep in his
and/or it's possession for the purpose
of operation in a certain building
owned, leased, and occupied by him
under his management and control
certain slot machines and/or de-
vices to wit: slot machines, appara.
tus and devices adapted or readily
converted into: ones that are adapt.
ed for use in such a way a piece of
money of coin, or other objects the
machines caused to be operated in
such a manner the user was entitled
to secure or might secure additional
chances or rights to use such ma
chimes, apparatus or device, and up.
on which the operator or user had a
chance to make varying scores or
tallies upon the outcome of which
Wagers might be made"
The only testimony offered yester-
day morning tending to show the slot
machines are illegal was that Of
Patrolman Skies who testified that
he had seen machines of the same
type as those seized which rave
varying cores.

that you are a very ingenious per-
son. This persuasion by limited diet
and comfort is The most effective
thing of its kind I've struck yet.
1t weakens a mans will, and loosens
his principles, as no amount of mere
physical torture would. And"
mo doubt" Trent interrupted,
roughly. but I didn't bring you
here to tell me that - I know it
already. Now, out with it, what
have you got to propose?'
Il was about to say" Gun per-
sisted, gently, that, although it is
excellent in its way, it has rather
defeated its w object in my case.
But only temporarily, of course. By
which I mean that such small amen.
tiles as food, drink, washing and 50
on have now assumed so much i'm
portance to me, that I find I cannot
say a word-or if you prefer it, 1
WILL not say a word-until I have
had a meal, a wash and at least two
hours sleep on a real bed. After
that, as your countrymen say, I shall
be ready to talk turkey!"
Trent sneered.
"Oh, no you don't. Talk first
grub afterward-and all the rest
Gun appeared suddenly to lose his
temper. 1t seemed obvious that his
nerves were completely u%nstrung!
Look here, blast you! With
your devilish cunning, you've made
me lose grip on my principles. I'm
going to turn lousy traitor, just be-
cause I can't stand it any longer.
But by God, I won't say a word
until I've had what I've asked for.
Give me that meal and a wash and
a bed, and you a wake me In two
hours and I'll talk. Refuse - and
you can damn well take me back
to your bloody hen-coop. But you
won't get a cluck out of me, now
or at any other time-not If You
starve me to death twice over.
See?"
Trent eyed him narrowly.
Look here, my friend, YOU'RE
not trying to pull my leg, are you?
You've really got something to say,
haven't you? Because I don't like
being made a fool of, and you'll be
mighty sorry later if you try it."
Gun shrugged.
You'll have to take your chance
of that. But I've got something to
say, all right. Look here, I'll be
quite frank with you'll put my
cards on the table, Trent! I can't
tell you much myself - Hazeldeane
keeps his secrets very tight, and I'm

And when he's done that, maybe I'll

Federal Men Keep Sharp Eye On
Airplane Plants, Local Man SAYS

Exhaustive investigation is made
of every employe hired in the large
airplane factories on the west coast,
according to a letter written to The
Bluffton News by A. T. Worthington,
former Bluffton movie proprietor.
The letter follows:
"Here we are, way out West, and
in the airplane business up to our
ears. They have four or five big
airplane factories here, all expanding
constantly. | am working at the
Douglas Santa Monica plant, which
has $4,000 employees.
'They surely are strict on hiring
men-birth certificate, interviews, re-
ferences, finger prints, photographs,
physical examination, including eyes,
teeth and throat. They furnish you
with badge with a number on it,
also an Identification card with your
picture on it. You must carry both
all the time.
"There are F. B. I. men and cops
everywhere, and they constantly
check everything in sight. / hope
they don't fall down on the job. It's
really wonderful thing to find prac-
tically all the employees are Ameri-
can citizens.

it looks from here that we will soon
be ready for Adolf and his wrec.s-
ing crew if they want to come this
way.

Deluge Flag Makers

Flags are at premium in the
United States at the present, it was
learned when placing orders for
patriotic colors to decorate the down.
town area during ceremonies Incl
dental to laying of the cornerstone
for Buttons new post office last
Sunday.
Firms which make our country's
flags are from four to six weeks be-
hind orders, local purchasers were
told, and there was quite a bit of
trouble in obtaining all the flags
needed for the celebration.
Recent patriotic trends and the ma
tional defense program are credited
with the increased demands for flags
thruout the entire country.
