(CONTINUED FROM PAGE I) enior can appoint who would be totally free from any suspicion of partizan ship.M Although not going quite so fat a Sheriff Taylor in the suggestion of outside investigation. District Attor ney John Medley declared that should any cases growing out of the tangle be presented to the grand jury he would ask for a special prosecutor to handle them. "1 don't want to conduct a news paper trial, and I have nothing be fore me on which to base a criminal case. But those involved or any titi zens who are interested should know that they have the right to present to the Brand jury any matter growing out of this situation which they lw- lieve the grand jury should take up. "And should any surh matters be presented to the grand Jury, I would feel it desirable to ask Judge Hkip worth to name a special prosecutor to handle them. I think this would be ad visable because of mj- past association with at least some of the people in volved." Widespread demand for an exhaus tive and relentless investigation of the Lane county law enforcement tangle became evident Monday morn- terly resentful of the manner In which the charges were brought about and in particular of the part which Mark Broom, serving a sentence for boot legging, had In the arrangement. Last spring when Lewis bile t ring, former stat operative, was a candi date for the republican nomination for sheriff he made sweeping charges of abuse of the "trusty" privilege in 4he handling of the prisoners at the coun ty jail and these criticisms were be ing renewed. There was a complaint also of the alleged misuse or misappropriation of contiscated liquors, of the abuse of s,elul county expense accounts and enforcement funds by various enforce ment officials, of gross inequalities m enforcement. From Oak ridge and Westfir came a complaint that when deputies made raids there recently the only persons affected were some loggers who had been drinking whereas the proprie tors of known speakeasies and gamb ling establishments were allowed to go untouched. One mnn charged that a known gambler greeted tho deputies at the train when they arrived for their raids. What people say: 'The situation is horrible, I have i'ust returned from my vacation and uve only glanced at the head lines in tue newspapers, ana cannot make uny statements at this time," said Kev. (.'. K Trnwin, pastor of the First Baptist church. Charles Kmery, local business man, stated that off-hand he would say that a special grand jury investigation should be made. "I think that this whole affair has commenced at the wrong end" he said, intimating that in his belief there was more behind the accusations than ap peared on the Biirface. "However, a grand jury Investiga tion 1b the only way to get at the truth of the matter," he addvd. Mr. Kmery also cnid that he laid the blame at the door of certain other persons and that he believed It w,as a "frame up." "I have known Gordon Wells for a long time and have had a high regard for him. This man Griffin is bitter. I don't believe he had anything to do with a 'frame up' hut he has entered into the thing willingly." Rev. J. Franklin linns aald that in the light of all the rumor that had been going around the streets, that he believed a grand jury Investigation would disclose the truth in the mat ter. "In the light of all these mmors, the accusations and counter-accusations, leaving much to be incurred, it is just as well for the parties con cerned, particularly the Innocent par tics. All the facta should be brought ont. The man who is Innocent In this has nothing to fear." Jdart Broom, convicted in on two liquor chargva, one of which dated back to liO, was to be released from the county Jail Monday afternoon or TuMtlay, having completed his fen- , tences which ran concurrently. Broom stated that Judge G. P. Skip worth had advised him Umt he i was to be released. "The sheriff has given one-third of ! my sentence off on good behavoir sml I'm a free man," said the ex-prutiier. Broom's record dales brtok to when officer made a raid on his place up the McKeniie. Liquor was (omul in a potato house which Broom claims belonged to another man. He va not arrested thnn. On June 1. 11 he claims to hare cen "framed" by an ex-convict "who got $2U1 for the job" and he was arrested and niviiKed of possession of liquor. The lit t cj.se was revived and he was tried on both. For the llfctii rase he received a sen tence of three mouths in jail and a fine of 300. In the W2t caw, a sen tence of mix months and $,"0. His cur was confiscated, lie appealed, and in the next few months was arrest nl near Salem for driving a car while in toxicated, and sent to jail. He es caped from the Salem jail. Judge Skipworth and Mr. Medley toU me that they h.ui talked with the sheriff in Marion count.- and flint I he was convinced of my innoc - e 'that time. The sheriff snt word . r me to stop ami we him tho next time I came through Salem. "When I was arrested I was not driving a car. It was stopped- at the side of a road and I was alone. I had liad a few drinks, but had not beeu driving," Broom averred. Harold Lee, county jailer, will leave the dty in a day or two on a vaca tion, the first he has had in four years, since hla appointment to that position. Mr. Ie had no further comment to make on the case Monday, snjing that for the present he wished to keep his silence, lie is seeking an ex service, man now to take over his post while he U away. R, D.
