Loucks Per forms Good Samaritan Act for Which Acting District Attorney Myers Demanded $25 From Couple Routine police duty was by Chief of Police Harry M. Loucks while he performed a good Samaritan act for a young mill worker and his cickly wife, and thereby kept $25 out of the eager palms of Acting District Attorney W. P. Myers. E. W. Giles, employed on Box factory, has been renting a house at 1433 Fremont street from Mrs. Anna A. Hodgins, for which he paid $15 per month. WIFE IS SICKLY Because of the noise and disturbances about the neigh borhood, Mrs. Giles, who is under a physician's care, could not live in the place, so Giles found another house List Saturday and moved into it. His rent was paid up until possession a rent receipt signed by Mrs. Hodgins. In moving their belongings from the home, Mr. and Mrs. Giles forgot two pictures taken at the time of their marriage. ' Giles returned to the asked permission to enter that he might procure the pictures. Mrs. Hodgins refused his request and locked the door in his face. She told him he had no business in the house, according to his story, in spite of the fact that he was still in legal possession until next Sunday as the renter. MYERS WANTS FEE Anxious to get the two photographs, Giles then went to the court house and presented the case to Acting Dis trict Attorney W. P. Myers. "There is nothing I can do for you,", he quotes Myers as saying; "that is, nothing I can do for you as district attorney. "But if you will pay me will take your case in the photographs for you." But young Giles didn t have the $25. His wife just re cently returned from the hospital and every penny counts with hospital and doctor bills staring him in the face. And furthermore, he didn t think he should be com pelled to pay an acting district attorney $25 for getting two photographs which were rightfully his in a house of which he still had legal possession. MISJUDGES PROSECUTOR Instead, he thought the acting district attorney could give him t search warrant on his statement of facts and get the photographs for him. In fact, he thought the act ing district attorney would be glad to perform this ser vice for a resident of the city. So young Giles told Myers that he could not and would not pay him $25 as a private attorney to get possession of the photographs for him. Chief of Police Harry M. Loucks was told of the affair this morning. - "Sure, I'll help the young fellow out," he gladly as sented. LOUCKS GLADLY HELPS A few minutes later the young mill worker accom panied Chief Loucks to the Hodgins home, and without so much as an argument the Hodgins woman, on demand of the chief, produced the two photographs. Young Giles was wearing a happy smile as he told his story. ' "My wife isn't feeling very good this morning," he said. "But she will sure be tickled when she sees me coming home with our two' pictures. We decided last night if we had to go to the courts to get them we would, although we could not afford to do it. "But, thank goodness, the chief of police got them for us, and it didn't cost us a cent. There's sure a lot of dif ference, in the way people treat you."
