But law enforce ment, he said in an editorial, was an anding problem before the city. “The laws have not been enforced.” he wrote. “That is the liquor laws, the gambling laws and the house of prostitution laws. Spasmodic efforts have been made, but only the surface scratched. Who is to blame? Pri- marily the chief of police and the men under him who are beinz paid to pro- n-| tect the city azainst the vices which now are damning Canton.” A few days later, In the same month, charged openly that vice was | rampant in Canton, and he demanded Swart the mavor, and A. | Hexamer. director of safety, were with a | Mellett. Responding to his editorial attacks. they removed S. A. Lengel. chief of police. Lengel appealed his e to the city Civil Service Commis- sion. however, and aftel hearing the Civil Service Commission rein- stated him. Appeal Denied by Courts. An appeal by the mayor from this reinstatement was denied by the courts and the State attorney general. Mellet's editorials became more vitri- is e low gambling at a certain race track. Mellett declared, “the News is not and never has been Interested greatly in what has gone on openly in the way of betting. The public can see and deal with that. Rather the News has been interested in the granting of protection or what amounts to protec- | tion to those forces active in operat- ing under cover in violation of law.” Two days before his death Mellett wrote an editorial commenting on the suspension of Sergt. Jiggs Wise by the chief of police for alleged drunkenness. The editorial pointed out that Wise had been active in his enforcement of the law, and intimated that this was the real reason for his suspension. Today Wise is referred to by newspaper reporters as one of two honest policemen on the force. Received Anonymous Warning. Mellett had recelved warning by anonymous letter and by telephone ft | t- was putting his car in the garage of his_home. The significant thing about hig cam- | patgn was that while it hit the under- | world through the police: while the | campaign deplored the underworld, it a | deplored still more its alleged con- nection with the police department.
