, Peterson Ja now In the county jail serv
i Jng a .one year sentence on . a federal
charge of having- altered War Savings
Stamps in - his possession. He pleaded
guilty June's.- ' v
..-Inspector La Salle Is said to be an
Innocent "victim of the ring. La 5?alle
- Is said to have agreed to sell a few
stamps for Brenner on a commission
bads. - La Salle admitted he sold about
t60K worth and" "wan ' to receive shout
: $43 commission. ' ; .
- When La Salle learned later that the
stamps ' had . been altered federal offl
. dais say he failed to - use good Judg
' meat and for this reason ne is involved
in the - case. Instead of using his au
thority and going out J and . arresting
, those whom he -knew to.be handling
.the government securities. La Salle is
'said to have . asked them fwhat they
. meant by. dragging him in on such a
deal." -:- -'v ---r".
; La Salle denied that he had knowingly
sold the altered stamps. "I admit I did
; something foolish but I didn't do it in-
tentionsliy," he said. "I know, I can
prove this to the' court."
Securing of the evidence which has
; permitted the grand Jury to return these
Indictments is due. to the efforts of As
sistant United States Attorney , John C.
Veach with" the cooperation of William
Bryon. chief of the department of Jus
tice operatives; James Riley, superin
tendent of the Plnkerton .agency, and F.
L Masters of. the W. J. Burns agency.
