Liquor Corruption Less
: Under a State Authority
NEW YORK. Oct. 11. (AP)
The dangers of political Influence
and corruption the Rockefeller
liquor study said today are much
less under a state alcohol author
ity than under a license system.
"politics and corruption enter
ed the license system," the survey
pointed out, primarily because
liquor dealers attempted to main
tain and expand their sales.' . . .
"Licensed liquor dealers, driven
on by the struggle for existence,
endeavored to manipulate votes
through, every means, legitimate
fcnd otherwise. Corruption was al
most Inevitable. The license ays
ienv turned. loose a large number
of individuals, each the center of
a continuous endeavor, open and
secret to protect and extend his
business. This was especially twe
in regions Where the pressure . to
establish dry areas by local op
tion was strong." ' '
-A' state - liquor- authority, -the
survey said would present a dif
ferent picture. . - . . .

: Pending Account Audit -
Albert G. Maizels, 22. 'Salem
youth in charge of the collection
department of the state board of
control, at 3:30 p. m. yesterday
pleaded guilty before Judge 'L. H.
McMahan on an information char

state funds. The amount thus far
shows as missing! is $2052. A
greater shortage may.be revealed
when state auditors, summoned
by William Elaxig, secretary of
the board, to check the records,
make their report..'
Maizels appeared without Coun
sel and waived a preliminary
hearing and grand Jury Indict
ment. District Attorney Trindle
asked that the Judge suspend sen

port. The court granted the re
quest and released Maizels on his
own recognizance, subject to his
leporting daily to Trindle, Maiz
els' father, in the courtroom, ot
tered his dwelling and a garage
building in West Salem as a bond
that Maizels would appear when
time came for his sentence. The
court said he released Maizels so
he could assist auditors In their
check.
Mr. Trindle said Maizels would
probably ask for a bench parole
when he appeared for sentence.
The youth's wife, whom he mar
ried September 10 of this year in
Portland, was in the courtroom.
Tears came to her eyes as her. hus

somewhat distraught while in the

started a quiet investigation and
found numerous discrepancies in

"They are not being endangered

more than 250,000 applications

Jugde Vaught said. ,
At 5:45 p. m. (Central Stan
dard time), he ordered the Jury
to deliberate until 9:30 o'clock to
night, if, necessary," and report to
him whether a verdict has been
reached at the opening of court
at 9:30 o'clock tomorrow morn
ing. !
"This court will not hesitate to
tell you that Kathryn Kelly's tes
timony concerning her removal of
the little girls from the Shannon
farm near Paradise, Tex., the day
Mr. Urschel was brought there,
did not 'sound convincing'," said
Judge Vaught.
The Jurors leaned forward and
listened more closely.
"Her conduct at the Coleman
farm near Stratford, Okla., not ,
only is a strong circumstantial
point but is convincing to this
court that Kathryn knew , about
the kidnaping and knowingly par
ticipated. Other testimony from
this defendant is utterly convinc
ing to this court that Kathryn
Kelly had criminal knowledge ef
the abduction conspiracy'
Brief arguments ot Counsel
were climaxed by the appeal of
Herbert K. Hyde, district attor
ney, for a conviction.
"How can you believe lost this

hearing that she roamed the coun

or wife, buying machine guns! "
Hyde thundered.
"i nis s w e e 1 smeiiing geran

she schemed with George and oth- V
ers under threats? I tell you she
was the arch-conspirator!"
Hyde's attack was levelled at
the woman alone.
