I The petition was granted a few ' days ago. after most of the petition ' ers had died. Cc’ft of the proposed road was es- I timated at $7,798.60. It will provide an outlet for a large number of Fin- ‘ ley township residents in a district ! where unimproved roads have been . praupcally impassable to vehicular ; traffic during long periods every ; yesrr. The long delay was due to the | fart that after the filing of the petitionfa change in the law governing road building bytownships i educed the debt limit to a point where it required many years for the township to retire exi-.tin toad bonds in sufficieftt amount to again comt within ’he statutory limitation. i —«■> ——■ ■ .

i Wickersham Dry Law May Indicate Change in President Hoover’s Attitude Qggßlßa "WSiiWI > wWwIK ~ - will si W-' i M n fIHM Andrew xx ■. President CoM>nssfoM. Hoover>

George W. Wi'-kersham, former" Attorney-General of the United states, appointed by President doover as chairman of the Law enforcement Commission, has riven the “die hard” drys a staggering blow in his recent criticism

Washington, June 17. —The na-i don's "die-hard" drys have not yet | recovered from the staggering blow given their cause by George W. Wickersham's sharp criticism , of prohibition administration. When during a recent speech in ' Boston, the chairman of President 1 Hoover's Law Enforcement Com- , inittee. denounced 'the Jones 5i and-10 law as dealing "excessive ■ ' penalties' to offenders, he tossed I i an unexpected bombshell into the | dry camp. The Prohibitionists and their op-1 jXHients are now both wdndering , whether Wickersham made his I astonishing attack on enforcement as President Hoover's spokesman or as a.private citizen. Even the most steadfast of drys believe that Wickersham must have told the President of his , view's before airing them publicly i and this has started the rumor

In charging the grand jury, Justice Normoylc said: “Public anger is at its highest pitch. It is ridiculous that disorganized mobs should try to run j this city. If you cannot complete the investigation in your term of. service I will see that succeeding grand juries tarry on your work.”! State's Attorney John A. Swansou placed at the disposal of thel inquisitorial body today his staff I of'.assistants and investigators fori 1 purpose of gathering evidence! jli'the Lingle murder. Deputy Commissioner Alcock, in

i that Mr. Hoover has greatly alter-i I ed his views on what he once term ! ' ed ‘‘a noble experiment’’ since his inauguration. But even if he spoke without his Chiefs sanction, the ideas of Wickersham, as head of the com-i nr'ttee which has investigated every angle of prohibition, wield a powerful influence on the public. In his Boston speech, the emi- j ■ nent lawyer said that the United ' i States might profitably follow the example of England in-the matter 1 >f insuring temperance. In England ,he pointed out, druukedness I has steadily declined because the public was being educated against the evils of drinking. In contrast to this. Wickersham branded our Jones law a« being "in the nature of vengeful reprisals upon those who question the legislative wisdom.” He recommended systematic education in law observance,

taking over temporary control of the police department, Immediately rescinded an order .by which Russell had transferred a number of subordinates to new posts, Alcock intimated that whatever transfers are made will depend on the situation he finds after a survey of the department. The resignation of Russell and his chief of detectives;, John Stege, both of whom assumed the ratings of captain in outlying districts, failed to halt tile investigation of the department started yesterday by the city council’s committee or> police. New evidence that gangland still was carrying on its wars and taking its victims for "rides.” was seen in the discovery of the headless body of a- man in a drainage canal not far from where the bodv of Eugene "Red" McLaughlin, notorious gangster, recently was

Less than three months ago he told the Senate Judiciary Committee that the dry law could be "measurably ' enforced, although human appetite ’ is widespread.” At the same time he declared that "the quality of the people en■l gaged in enforcement is greatly improved." t Wickersham at one thne was I Attorney-General of the United i States.
