Removal Of Stock

John Wiley, for the past six
years manager of the State Lii
-qHef- store in Mount Clemens,
has been removed, John p. Aar-
on, chairman of the Michigan Lii
uqor Control Commission said
today.
Wiley, the liquor commission
head said, had admitted remov-
ing two cases of state-owned
whiskey from the store, in the
Monitor-Leader building, after
the official closing hours.
The eX-manager, who told the
Monitor-Leader that he did not
care to make a complete state
ment until after having been &C.
corded a hearing by the Civil
Serv ice Commission, pointed
out, however, that rather than
having been discharged he is in
effect merely under suspension.
FOR SICK DEALER
He said that he had removed
two cases of liquor from the
state store on the night Of Mon
day, Jan. Is but insisted that he
had done so merely in order to
make delivery to a sick licensee
who had been unable to call for
his stock.
Aaron said that even if Will
ey's statement were true he we'll
knew it was in violation of Ii
Quor commission rulings for any
employee to make deliveries TO
dealer Aaron likewise point
ed out that his department and
the governors office have from
time to time received anonymous
tips Of supposed black market
liquor operations in Mount Glenn
ems.
Aaron said that Wiley's custer
followed complaint by two citi-
zens who had seen man remove
two cases of whiskey from the
store and had followed him for
some distance in their car. They
reported the mans automobile
license number to authorities
and Wiley's identity as the man
who removed the whiskey was
quickly established, Aaron point
ed out.
