Col. Austin Killian denied today that an eight-months’' delay in the

wanted to see the defendant prose- |.
cuted,” recalled the state police head. “There was no attempt made to stop the arrest, as far as I know.” However, a Gary attorney charged that high political figures delayed until yesterday the arrest of Bert Sieb, 49, an insurance company representative. . .

Burns, Porter county“prosecutor, filed the charge shortly after the accident, but no attempt was made to arrest Sieb until yesterday. Mr. Moore ' blamed “state and ‘county officials and a congressman” ‘for the delay. He said he knew who was responsible, but would make no ‘public disclosure at this time. The attorney also declared that a high American Legion official reSeBUy had prevented the arrest of a person involved in a similar. accldent on U.- 8. 41, in northern Indiana;
