THE 'PROBE IS ORDERED Prince Georges Judge Directs, Grand lury to Make | Inquiry. By » Staff Correspondent of The Star. | UPPER MARLBORO, Md., October 6. | ~A thorough investigation of charges that gambling laws are openly violated In Prince Georges County was asked of the October grand jury by Chief Judge W. Mitchell Digges when Cireuit Court convened this morning. Dealing at length with “rumors and accusations” concerning gambling, Judge Digges “declared: “The people of this county are entitled to have the situa- tion, such as has been publicly repre- sented to exist, ‘thoroughly investigated {by the grand jury ‘The court, therefore, with all the force of which I am capable, i charges you solemly to leave nothing | [ undone in your investigation.” Violations Not Unnatural. Citing the material increase in popu- lation of Prince Georges County, Judge Digges told the jury it was not unnatu- ral to have a cosmopolitan population Pproduce many types of law violation. “You will find in every county certain individuals who make a business to vioiate the law; who do not do it on the spur of the moment, but who know- ingly and deliberately make a business of law violations, and there has been some unsavory comment on such in- | dividuals in this county. But the question of how much a hold such an individual and the insti- tutions operated by them, if they do | exist, are going to get upon the county— and Jet me say to you that this affair | is_insiduous and reaches out into the affairs of the county—depends upon your investigation. You will find these men getting into politics when they want aid of various character, all for the purpose of having the general public look with more acquaintance upon their operations than they would otherwise do. Of course the court has no infor- mation directly in respect to any of these violations. “So I charge you at this time, in order that this sort of insiduous in- fluence may not spread and become a real vital force in your country, that you investigate it carefully, completely and fully at this term of court. Sum- mons all those who ought to know and undertake to say that they do know of the violation of the gambhng laws of the county.” To Get Attorney’s Complaint. Charles B. Calvert, Mount Rainier at- | torney, who filed a written complaint on the county commisioners several ‘weeks ago, charging the gambling laws ‘were being violated “through general corruption of enforcement officers,” was present when court opened and hoped to go before the grand jury. State's Attorney J. Frank Parran promised the county commissioners that he would present Calvert's complaint to the in- quisitorial body. Members of the grand jury as drawn by Judge Digges and Assoclate Judge Joseph C. Mattingly were: L. L. Gray, foreman; Allan T. Perrie, Thomas Mat- thews, William B, Boswell, Thomas W.
