Liquor Industry Drawn
Into House Probe Of
Justice Department
BY George Beveridqe

Milton S. Kronheim, Washing
ton wholesale liquor dealer, prob
ably will testify next week at House
hearings on whether the Justice
Department has enforced anti
trust laws involving the liquor in
Idustry.
The inquiry, it was understood.
is closely tied in with campaign
contributions made in 1948 by
major liquor firms.
Mr.. Kronheim told reporter he
has testified in closed session be-
fore a House Judiciary subcommit-
tee, headed by Representative
Chelf, Democrat, of Kentucky,
which is investigating the Justice
Department.
Questioned on Contributions.
Mr.. Kronheim, long a major
Democratic Party supporter here.
said he was questioned about his
contributions. He said he told
the subcommittee he did not know
exactly how much he has given
during the last two decades.
While he has volunteered to
testify, Mr.. Kronheim said the
inquiry does not directly concern
either him or his firm. Mr.. Kron-
helms son.. Milton S. Kronheim.
jr., is Municipal Court judge.
The younger Kronheim previously
was a law partner of District
Commissioner F. Joseph Donohue
and their firm represented the
Kronheim liquor interests.
The hearings are expected to
involve secret testimony given by
Ernest Branham, a department
antitrust lawyer. After his testi-
mony, subcommittee heads said
Mr.. Branham apparently had
been mentally horsewhipped" by
his superiors and that his advice
had not been followed regarding
the prosecution of certain cases.
Involved in Earlier Probe.
The Antitrust Division in 1943
presented evidence involving large
liquor firms to grand jury, but
the inquiry died without an in
dictment being returned. At about
the same time. a Senate Judiciary
subcommittee also conducted ex-
tensive hearings on liquor industry
practices. However, the commit
tee apparently never filed a report
on the sessions.

Senators and $4,000 for Repre-
SentativeS.
Senator Hayden's proposal was
in a bill designed to prevent cor
rupt practices and set up new
regulations governing campaign
expenses and contributions.

Dear Mr.. Editor:
Now that ex-sheriff Stewart
Harland has been exonerated
I wonder what some of the
tax payers are thinking. Do
they realize that this whole
thing has cost their county
thousands of dollars, and for
naught?
/ konw / am safe in saying
that a great many of them
are aware that they will never
get a sheriff more honest,
capable and conscientious than
the one they lost last November.
It just goes to show how
newspaper reporters can play
some small incident up to the
nth degree and malign a good
mans name until it reaches dis
gusting proportions.
One reporter even went so
far as to run down to Florida
to photograph two houses then
owned by the Harlands. The
second house, in which they
had added a second bedroom
was, fortunately for the re-
porter, built before the first
one was sold. 1t was stated
that these places were built
with money gained dishonesty,
(This reporter has since tried
to make amends. No mention
was made of the fact that the
Harland's had owned a home
long before he was connected
with the sheriff's office.
Up until 1852 there were nc
funds available to repair the
antiquated sanitary system ir
the Geauga Jail. When thi:
scandal started there was ap'
parently no opposition. 1t wa.

the proper ones had backed ur
Stewart Harland he would still
be our sheriff besides having
saved the overburdened tax
payers additional expense.
Some of the people that read
all that front page scandal
last year didn't know that
Harland had been elected by
the largest number of votes
ever cast for sheriff in Geauga
county. Also that he had been
connected with the office longer
than any other previous sheriff.
You still have a lot of friends
in Geauga county, Stewart, and
we got a tremendous amount
of satisfaction when the news
came out that you had been
cleared. Congratulations, for as
the old adage goes, "He who
laughs last laughs best"
May I say in closing, that
perhaps sheriffs, like old SOL
diers, just fade away. (Please
note that I didn'e say old sher-
ifs, because after all, he is

In loving memory of our dear
Mother, Elsie M. Mills, who de-
parted this life one year ago to-
day, August 2, 1851.
We watched you slowly fade away,
God was watching from above;
We prayed so hard for you to stay,
But God took you home to share
His love.
God took you first and we remain
To walk the road alone;
Happy are we who today can say,
We loved you and did our best.
No one knows how much we miss
you,
No one knows the bitter pain
We have suffered since we lost
you,
This is the day God called you
away.
Your loving husband, daughter,
and sons: Hazel, Raymond, Ralph,
Donald, Preston and grandchildren.
