DEKING SNOOPING' - HITBY PROSECUTOR State’s Attorney Frowns on “Indiscriminate Raids” on Families. By the Associated Press. GENEVA, TIL, April 24—A new code of prohibition enforcement, frowning upon indiscriminate raids against “fam- illes with a gallon or two for their own consumption,” was announced today by State's Attorney George D. Carbary. “I do not approve,” said the State's attorney, “of the kind of ‘snooping’ done by Eugene Fairchild in the De King case, and I had no idea anything like that was being done.” Carbary made known his new en- forcement program as the grand jury began its second day’s inquiry into the | death during a dry raid of Mrs. Lillian | De King of Aurora, “‘After the Big Fellows.” “No more search warrants shall be | iasued unless liquor has been purchased by a representative of the State's attor- ney's office, and no one else, he said. In the De King case the purchase of liquor near the De King home was made by a man with no official connection, acting at the suggestion of the county own consumption,” Carbary said. A general overhauling of c-rurn staff of investigators was understood to be under way. 400 Raids Have Been Made. More than 400 liqllor ralds had been made prior to the De King killing in Carbary's campaign to dry up Kane County. Smrels of members of the De King family—accounts of the visit of the llx depu!y sheriffs the night of March 25 and events following—were to be heard by the jury today. SENATE MICROPHONE BILL IS INTRODUCED Senator Dill Urges Broadcasting of Important Debates From Chamber. ‘The movement to have the Senate chamber equipped witn mézrophones for the broadcasting of important debates was revived yesterday, when Senatsr Dill (Democrat) of Washington intro- duced a new resolution on the subject. Senator Dill announced at the same time that he hoped to have the com- mittee hearings on this resolution broadcast at as early a date as he can induce the committee on audit and control to arrange for such hearings. “I have already discussed the subject with one of the chain broadcasting | companies and_am assured that it will be glad to broadcast these hearings. If we can arrange to hold the hearings in the evening, I believe there will be a tremendous listening audience, because I am sure there is a great demand for the passage of this resolution in order dry agent, Fairchild. “It's the big fellows we're after, not | families with a gallon or two for their ' that it may be possible for Senate de- bates to be heard throughout the country.” .
