STRIFE DENIED AFTER AID OF LOOMIS QUITS Chief Assistant Rulison Asserts Salary Caused Hardier to Resign. DRY CLASH REPORTED Desire for Anti-Saloon League Position Also Advanced in Discussion. Bu 7'r.tet S penal SOUTH BEND. Ind.. July 29. George L. Rulison. chief assistant United States district attorney for northern Indiana, has denied published reports that disagreement between him and Lloyd S. Hartzler. Ft. Wayn* who resigned as assistant, over prohibition lave enforcement policies, were the cause of the actior. Oliver M. Loomis, district attorney, dented rumors of strife in the office and referred all inquiries regarding the resignation to Rulison.

Newspaper Gives View Penial of strife talk was made bv Rulison following publication of the following by the Ft. Wayne Journal-Gazette: “The young Republican lawyers of Ft. Wayne are not falling over each other in an attempt to get into the race to succeed Lloyd S. Hartzler as. deputy United States district attorney. “They have evidently come to the conclusion that, “all that glitters Is not gold." “Before Mr. Hartzler was named there was quite a raft of candidates. "Hartzler found the position altogether unsatisfactory, it is said. The salary was only S2.WO per year. He had to pay his own expenses in traveling back and forth between Ft. Wayne and South Bend. He had to spend most of his time away from his law practice. Being the junior member of the staff he had to answer telephone and fetch law books, while George. L. Rulison. the chief deputy, copped the glory. Hartzler did not. like it. So he chucked the job and the other young Republican attorneys have lost some of their desire to succeed him. “It. is reported here that Rulison may resign in the near future. Rulison is the pride of the drvs. He used to be a preacher. He believes, it is said, that the prohibition law is almost as important, as the ten commandments. He appears to be sincere about it. He prosecutes bootleggers with vigor. The Anti-Saloon League likes him. “It is understood that Rulison is looking forward to a better job in Washington. He either expects to land on the legal staff of the prohibition enforcement department or on the legal staff of the Anti-Sa-loon League, it is said.” Denies Dry League Ambition It is believed the last paragraph of the Journal-Gazette story refers to a civil service examination taken by Rulison for appointment to the prohibition bureau's legal staff in Washington. Rulison asserts he has dropped that project and never had any intention of becoming connected with the Anti-Saloon League. Declaring Hartzler in resigning said he was dissatisfied with the salary is cited by Rulison with the remark that “I don't see why his explanation can not be accepted and the matter dropped."
