Devoted to the Interests ot Eastern Clackamas County EASTERN No. 24, CLACKAMAS NEWS THURSDAY, MARCH 18 l------------------------------------------ r Large Attendance at Mexican Police Sucpected Union of Clubs Meeting O f Killing American Huntington Park, Cal., March 16. — Investigation o f the death at Tia Juana o f Carl F. Reynolds, promin ent resident o f Huntington Park, was demanded today by lcoal au thorities. Chief o f Police Williams, in a tel ephone conversation with San Diego police, ordered an immediate Inves tigation o f Reynold’s death, main taining it was the result o f mis treatment at the hands o f the Mex ican police following his arrest on an intoxication charge. Police at the Mexican border re sort claim he died from “ acute al coholism” according to advices here. “ That is unbelievable,” said the lo cal police chief. “ Reynolds was not that kind o f a man.” “ I want an immediate examination made to determine if he had been beaten up. I consider the facts war rant the most careful investigation,” Ch.ef Williams declared he would appeal to authorities in Washington also. An autopsy was to be conducted in Tia Juana today. The chief witness will be Joe Brown who accompanied Reynolds from here to the border. Another witness will be the vic tim's wife who accompanied the par ty to Tijuana. Reynold’s death is the third tragic scandal at the border involving Americans. Four Mexicans, including Zenaido Llanos, former police chief o f Ti juana, are held on charges o f as sault on Clyde and Audrey Peteet, young American girls, who, with their parents, committed suicide a f ter an “ orgy of shame” at the border village. The death o f T. M. N. George, wealthy Atlanta, Georgia, cotton broker, after his arrest fo r alleged drunkenness, is still a subject of in vestigation by American authorities. United States naval authorities also have under investigation the detention in the Tijuana bastile of Eimo K. Gordon, chief petty officer. He has been held for months, al legedly on trumped up charges of the Mexican police.— Journal. “ FIVE HUNDRED” PARTY Mr and Mrs. Ed Linn entertained a number of friends at cards on Saturday evening, in honor- o f Ed ward Linn who has just returned from the east.
