Justice is investigating a system of | bribery in federal prisons, whereby || prisoners were shified to more com- the county. ‘The system, as described, has been practiced mainly in Atlanta and | Leavenwerth, and affects liquor law violators and men convicted | of stock fraud chiefly. The in- vestigation started when a watch| smug@ler admitted he paid $1,000 to be shifted from Atlanta to the Army Detention camp at | Wadsworth, N. Y. His two ass ciates were transferred after paying $800 and $500. John Edgar Hoover is conduct- pected to be difficult because 1,500 or more prisoners have been shift- | ed to Army camps recently to ayold congestion in the regular prisons. Only a small part of that number paid bribes, if such a sys- tem flourishes. 4 FRESH FOODS BROUGHT HERE gi ie Motorship Has Z4 Passen- gers for This Port School Sermon, {Sunday School metes Corner Fourth and Franklin Sts.
