QUILLIN STRIKES AT GILLIOM FOR PARLEYSPEECH Ousting Hundred’ Chief Say He Is Misrepresented. v State Senator William T. Quilltn, president of the Englewood Hustling Hundred, under fire of. Attorney General Arthur L. Gllliom at the ploslng session of the law enforcement conference at the Statehouse Saturday, today accused Gilliom of “deliberate misrepresentation.” A special meeting of the organization may be called to discuss the Attorney General’s speech, he declared. Gilliom attacked the Hustling Hundred, mentioning Quillin by name, for a resolution passed by them, which, he declared, termed the conference “an empty gesture,” before it was held. His speech wai applauded by the 160 county prosecutors, police chiefs and sheriffs who attended. Branded Conference Futile "The resolution passed by the Hustling Hundred did not condemn the law enforcement conference, as such,’ Quillin declared. “It merely pointed out t'<-at if the Attorney General continued to attack Indiana dry laws In speeches throughout the State, such a conference would be futile" The resolution closed by terming these talks “vocal emulations of the genus equus asinus.” Gilliom brought It to the attention of the conference a. c an example of super-governmental Interference, which he roundly condemned. He urged the officers to submit to no dictation or intimidation in carrying out their oaths as constituted authorities. He cited the last eleven or twelve months in Marion County as an example of how a prosecutor’s efforts could be interfered with. Then he dwelt on the Hustling Hundred resolution as follows: “It turns out that the leader of this group is a State Senator, William Quillin. He is the head of that organization that is large, if not altogether, Ku-Klux Klan, whose members belonged to that group that corruptly entered into a deal with the mayor of this city in the last campaign, in which he promised to give them 85 per cent of the public appointments of the city government. “VOlify and Falsify” “They hide under the cloak of a church organization, belonging at the same time to a most vicious and corrupt force, and they saw fit, because you have been called here to consider practical questions of law enforcement, to pass a resolution

Appreciation To Editor of The Times: My best regards go to you in the heroic fight you are putting up for good government. The successful (although, unfortunate ending) of the Indianapolis trial is an evidence of fearlessness. I feel that the outcome of the Duvall case is more satisfactory to the citizens of the city than anything happening here for many years. The desire of the average citizen is not to see vindictive action directed toward any official and it is always regrettable that such trials Include unfortunate and innocent members of families, but the citizen of the city feels he Is entitled to an honest and satisfactory management of municipal affairs. The efforts of The Times has urged that end.” May I congratulate you in the good work. Cordially yours, F. A. HAYWARD, Secretary. Federated Baptist Churches of Indianapolis.

in advance, minimizing it as an ‘empty gesture.’ “You will find In your own communities people who parade under false colors, under the cloak of religion sometimes, who, because you proceed in your own course and under your oath of office, will villify and falsify to put you in a bad before the community.”
