Feud Continues
Meanwhile, in New Castle a feud continued today between city police and Sheriff Robert Padgett following the latter's raids on five cigar stores. City officials charged the sheriff with ‘playing politics” but Sheriff Padgett declared the “lid was on to stay.” { He charged Henry County Prosecutor Robert Brown was unwilling to file affidavits against the store operators for fear the action might lead to closing down gambling in local clubs and lodges. | Prosecutor Brown earlier had refused to file affidavits against the merchants om the sheriff's evidence, but said he would take the cases to the grand jury the first of the year. | In answer to city officials’ demands that he clean up Henry County first and leave New Castle alone, Sheriff Padgett declared, “The gambling lid’s on and will stay on if I have to deputize half the men in Henry County to enforce it. If there are any gaming devices in the! county outside New Castle they, must be well hidden, because I haven't found them and have had no complaints about their exist-! ence.” |
