Court Orders Touhy
10 Appear tuesday on
Habeas Corpus Writ
Gonester's Attorney
Charges Conspiracy
To Obstruct Justice
By the Associated Press,

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Jan. 2-Roger Touhy's
lawyer charged today there had been
a conspiracy to defeat justice In re-
moving the fugitive convict to State
vile Prison and obtained a Federal
court order. directing the warden to
produce the gangster in court Tues
day.
Touhy "the Terrible" captured
with two fellow fugitives by the FBI
was removed to the Illinois State
Penitentiary New Year eve and
placed in solitary confinement for
81 days.
Claim Obstruction Attempt.
Attorney Joseph Harrington con-
tended Warden Joseph Ragen Of
Statewide, and Spencer j. Drayton,
head of the Chicago FBI office, con-
spired to obstruct justice by trans
ferring Touhy from Federal custody
after Federal Judge Philip L. Sulli-
van had issued habeas corpus writ
The original writ was unserved
before Touhy was taken to prison
Today Mr.. Harrington appeared be-
fore Judge John P. Barnes and had
an amended writ issued directing
Warden Ragen to produce the
prisoner before Judge Sullivan on
Tuesday.
Mr.. Harrington's original petition
for a habeas corpus writ contended
Touhy was innocent of the crime for
which he had been convicted and
sentenced by the State. He also
argued the Federal agents had no
right to arrest Touhy since they had
no warrants against him. no Fed
eral charges were entered against
him and they had no right to detain
him.
The FBI entered the case by
charging the Statewide fugitives had
violated the National Selective Serv-
ice Act by failing to notify their
draft board of change of address
when they escaped.
Banghart Removal Ordered.
j. Albert Woll, United States dis
trict attorney, said he had received
an order by wire this morning from
Attorney General Biddle directing
that Basil (The OWL Banghart
Touhy's machine gunner in liquor
war, be removed to Alcatraz as soon
as his transfer papers arrive from
Washington. He is under 36-year
sentence for mail robbery.
Touhy, Banghart and five other
long term convicts escaped over the
wall of Statewide october 8. Two of
the seven were slain by Omen and
the others recaptured, Touhy in a
spectacular trap at his North Side
apartment early Tuesday.
Banghart and Touhy were in
Statewide for 80 years for the 1888
kidnapping of John Jake the Bar
ber) Factor.

. Get New Type Of Thrill
As Low-LeveI Attack Job

ORLANDO, Fla. May 19.-Army
regulations call for wearing para
chutes at all times-for civilian per-
sonnel at any rate. But you Won
dered, after you'd been knocking the
tips from the top Of few pine trees,
if that pilot of the A-20, the fast
low-level attack job which is turning
out to be one of the prize packages
of the Air Force, wasn't carrying the
matter little far.
First he suggested his two civilian
passengers, part of newspaper
group who attended the first press
showing at the Army Air Force
School of Applied Tactics, should
walk over to nearby C-53 and grab
themselves couple of chutes. He
didn't tell us that we had to carry
those 30-pound chutes in hot sun
a matter of three-quarters of mile.
And chutes are unwieldy They just
don't fit the human anatomy except
on the back and then, with them
banging at your legs, walking is
pretty uncomfortable.
The pilot also didn't say much
except how to get in the pleXiglas
nose of the ship and how to latch
the cover tight.
Cut Tips of Trees.
He picked the ship up from the
runway without much run and i'm
mediately started cutting didoes over
the tips of the trees. Unused to
these ships, we thought he might
zoom up to get into some top air at
any moment In a fast airplane you
feel more comfortable with a lot of
air below you. But after he had
theoretically strafed an airport so
miles up the line and dropped some
smoke simulated gas). clipped the
noses of a couple of dozen turtles
which uncautiously stuck up above
the surface of lake, and scared the
wits out of flocks of those skinny
COWS you see in Florida, you got the
general idea that the A-20 is a low
level attack ship that bursts at high
speed over an enemy encampment.
delivers its fire or bombs and gets
away fast before hostile guns can get
going. That was the whole idea, we
found out later, but they didn't tell
us about it beforehand.
So. sitting up there in the nose,
counting the turtles passing in re-
view from the imposing height of
six feet over the lakes at $50 miles
an hour, clipping the pine tree tops.
we got to wondering why the para
chutes. Probably if the pilot had
known how those chutes weighed
down couple of gents out of condi-
ton, he might have explained. But
he was a fit-looking fellow who
probably never had looked Kentucky
bourbon in the face, never ate
second helping of pie, and kept his
physical wits about him at all times.
Maybe he wouldn't understand why
the trek with those parachutes in
30 degrees of temperature became
chore. And after all, middle-aged
