Sankey's Example and
Close Noted Case
SIOUX CITY. S. D., Feb. .-(P)
-Verne Sankey, described by offi
cials as America's "public enemy
No. 1," will plead guilty in the
Charles Boettcher kidnaping, his
counsel announced here tonight,
and Gordon Alcorn, his alleged
lieutenant probably will follow
the same course.
Announcement of Sankey's in
tention was made by Ben B. Las
ka, Denver lawyer representing
Mrs. Sankey and her husband, as
he emerged from a conference
with U. S. district attorney, Olaf
Eidem. Laska was not able to
state when the expected pleas
would be entered but said he felt
"it would be soon."
' He said he planned to return to
Denver tomorrow afternoon or
Thursday morning but explained
his presence here was not neces
sary when the formal pleas were
made.
Sentencing of the confessed kid
napers would place behind the
bars the two remaining members
of the band which abducted Char
les Boettcher II, wealthy Denver
broker last February, and held
him for $60,000 ransom. During
his captivity Boettcher was held
on the Sankey turkey ranch near
Gann Valley, about 160 miles west
of Sioux Falls.
The penalty for kidnaping un
der the recently enacted federal
law may be life imprisonment.
District Attorney Eidem said he
had not definite information re
garding the prisoner's pans.
He said, however, he had been
led to believe that guilty pleas
might be entered.

It's Revenue Measure and
Not Criminal Statute
Says K. F. Counsel
The Knox liquor control act
reached its final court stage yes
terday and rested last night witn
the supreme court for the lattef's
decision on whether the measure
was in harmony or conflict with
the state constitution. The court,
sitting en banc, heard Tuesday
morning arguments of counsel for
both sides in the test case of the
City of Klamath Falls, plaintiff
and appellant, against the state
liquor commission. Case was to
be assigned yesterday afternoon
to one of the justices who will
prepare the decision, expected
next week, after consultation with
the entire court.
Elton Watklns, representing
the City of Klamath Falls, took
exception to the defense conten
tion that the Knox liquor law was
a criminal statute and therefore
takes precedence over the home
rule provision of the state consti
tution. He said that section 2 of
article 11, known as the home
rule amendment, gave to cities
the exclusive right to regulate
liquor, subject to the constitution
and criminal statutes of the state.
"It would first be necessary
to prove that the statute Is a
criminal measure and second that
the act makes the Bale and licens
ing of liquor unlawful,'' Watklns
continued. "Otherwise the crim
inal law would not apply." Wat
kins contended that the act was
a revenue measure pure and
simple.
Watklns also argued that the
act was passed by the legislature
not as a criminal measure but
to raise money for relief purposes.
George Neuner, attorney for
the state liquor commission, de
clared that the intent of the con
stitutional measure and the In
tent of ,the legislature In passing
the law should govern the con
struction of the provisions.
