HALED ON CONTEMPT

PROCEEDING

Liquor Conspiracy Cases Find Echo in Federal Court Yesterday. INTER NATIONAL NEWfc SERVICE INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., May 11. The Muncie liquor conspiracy cases, in which two score of persons from all -walks of life In Muncie were tried in Federal court last November, were echoed yesterday when Delberta "Williams, 19, long sought as an important witness, finally was haled by Judge Anderson on contempt proceedings. The girl's testimony was wanted against Thomas V. Miller, Muncie lawyer, and John C. Sullivan, owner of underworld real estate in that city in the November trials but the case against MUler was dropped because of lack of evidence when she could not be located. The Williams girl "was arrested at Anderson Saturday by a Federal operative and was brought into court today after spending three days in jail. At first denying any knowledge of the Muncie cases, she finally said: "Judge, there Is one thing I am

sorry for. I lied .before the grand Jury to shield Tom Miller. He asked me not to tell on him and when he was drunk he threatened me and said he could get me locked up if I did tell. He lied about a lot of people In the cases here and made them out worse than they were." "Tes and everyone In the courtroom knew he was mixed up in it," Judge Anderson answered. "And it was such people as you who let him get away.' After a second talk with the girl, Judge Anderson allowed her to go without sentence.
