KLAMATH FALLS, Oct. 8. (AP)
Mayor Willis Mahoney, who declared
it had been his policy to give Klam
ath Falls a liberal administration,
this afternoon ordered the town
"closed."
The proclamation came after the
stirring instruction to the grand Jury
delivered by Judge Ashurst In con
nection with, the gambling and graft
Investigation here.
"Circumstances of the past week
or so have brought to the attention
of the district attorney and the cir
cuit court Judge and the grand Jury
of certain violation of the law," the
mayor said.
"Therefore, I have directed the
chief of police to Immediately stop
any and all forma of gambling, any
and all forms of prostitution or any
and all forms of violations of the
local and state laws."
KLAMATH FALLS, Oct. 8. fl'
spue wiae open loiiuwuig n, w-nto vi
almost unprecedented events at the
courthouse, Klamath county was
seething with excitement today after
Circuit Judge Aahurst's instructions
to the grand Jury in connection with
the gambling Investigation.
H. I. Jackson of radio station KPJI
indicated he would swear out a com
plaint against At Brandt, former
court reporter, for allegedly cuttng
broadcasting wires while the Judge's
instructions to the Jury were on the
air from the courtroom.
Ejected from Court.
Brandt, who campaigned against
the Judge at the last election, was
dismissed when Ashurst took office
On several occasions In the past he
has been ejected from the courtroom
when he appeared as a reporter In
private work.
Direct charges of Irregularities
were made against the district attor
ney's office in connection with gam
bling and bad check cases by the
Judge as he sent the Jury Into Its
secret session. Charges were also
made against other county and city
officials.
The governor was attacked for re
fusing to dismiss Hardin C. Black
mer, district attorney, and for his
refusal to appoint a special prose
cutor. Deputy District Attorney Kuyken
dall accompanied the grand Jury as
it went into the Jury room to begin
Its deliberations.
Judge Flays Governor. .
The wrath of the Judge, who last
week ousted District Attorney Black
mer from the probe, was this morn
ing turned on Governor Martin.
"The governor had the courage to
write me and say 'you have not told
me conditions are getting worse.'
"How could they be worse?" the
Judge demanded.
Speaking before a Jammed court
room, he said:
"I will not sit on the bench sur
rounded by graft and corruption."
He charged the Jury to make a
thorough investigation In an effort
to expose the charges he had mode
against city and county officials.
"If I can get no help from the city,
county or state," he said he would
personally "carry the message to the
people" to reveal conditions . as he
round them.
Savs Officials Robbers.
He cited public officials as "bad
as highway robbers t the points of
guns" in the manner of conducting
public business.
Recently the governor wrote to the
judge, asking him to give Blackmer
a "fair opportunity" to present the
fscts to the grand Jury.
The prosecutor was not In court,
but his stenographer was present to
take down Ashurat's remarks.
Charles Pray, superintendent of
state police, is In the city represent
