."We know where these murders were
comnjitted," he said, but be would not
tell where. He believes the bodies were
taken in an automobile to the lonely
spot where they were found.

..Willie Stevens, who by his odd re
mark In tba fire station has injected
himself Intothe investigation, has had

Salem Police Head
k Loses Commission
Granted by State
Salem. Sept. 19. The special agents'
commission held by Verden Moffitt,
.Salem's police chief, was revoked by
Jovernor Olcott Monday afternoon, at
the request of Mayor Halvorsen, based
on the action of the chief in going out
side of the city Sunday to arrest Wil
liam John of lKnaid on a bootlegging
charge.
The revocation of the chiefs state
commission became known as the cli
max of a stormy session of the city
council Monday night, in which Moffitt
was the center of numerous charges
of inefficiency-and lauiess in law en
forcement within -the city.
Mayor Halvorsen contends that the
chief exceeded, not only his duty, but
his authority, in going Into the terri
tory' of the county officials in arrest
ing John.
Chief Moffitt, an elective official,
has been under fire by the city count
cil for some time, Halversen contend
ing that it is impossible to make good
his pledge of law enforcement and
business economy while the chief is
not responsible to him for his position.
A measure on the fall election ballot
would make the police chief and all
other department heads appointive and
removeable at the pleasure of the
mayor.
Defending his action in arresting
John Sunday, Chief Moffitt explains
that information regarding the alleged
violations of the prohibition law- came
to him Sunday morning, and that
prompt action was necessary in order
to apprehend John.
