COPS SHADOW-BOX WITH LAW, BUTLER fove Kidd Rane Tramckmg‘ Phila. Police Director Says Philadelphia, July 2 (P—The spe- cial federal grand jury, which yes- terday completed an investigation of the illegal flow ef alcohol here, un- covered evidence, according to } ssistunt United States | v, of huge bribes ac- cepted by city policemen who not | only afforded “protection” to a | of alcohol permit holders, but in loading trucks that acted as voy to the liquor laden vehicles, Simultaneously, Director of Pub- lle Safety But) n a talk to his | police inspectors, captains and lieu- | tenants admitted that his previous | crusades against vice, gambling and liquor had falled because the police | had been “shadow-boxing.” At the same time the director inaugurated | another intensive campaign and per- | sonally took charge of a epecial squad of 150 picked men fo clean | up the city “where the other squads | have failed.” | General Butler also lssued a state- ment denouncing as “baseless” at- | tacks on his work by the Da Newns. He declared that Congre: man William 8. Vare was “cons erably interested” in the Dally News and that the attacks had been made | because he (Butler) had ‘“resisted | an invitation given by Congressman | Vare, through Common Pleas Court Judge E. O. Lewis, to purchase the silerce of the News by instructing policemen to boost the circulation of | ‘ that newspaper.” | Congressman Vare early fodav declined to discuss the statement “T have read the statement,” he sald, | “and you can say this for me: I| have made it a rule not to discuss | General Butler, and T shall carry out that policy as long as he re- mains as director of the depart ment of public safety.” Regarding the grand jury investi- gation, Assistant District Attorney Friedman it had revealed the “biggest pol candal in the his- tory of the city.” He declined to| state the number of policemen in- | volved, but sald thelr names and | all the information gathered by 1‘ secret squad of 100 “under cov agents from \ashington would be turned over to Director Butler. | Friedman declared the investiga-| tlon would lead to the indictment of | more than a score of incorporations and forty individuals on charges of conspiracy, illegal transportation and sale of alcohol and bribery of policemen. Friedman sald the government would enter suits not only for the ! revocation of the licenses of these | corporations and individuals, but also for the forfeiture of thelr in- demnity bonds. Forfeiture of these bonds, he stated, would net the gov- ernment hundreds of thousands of dollars, and the revocation of the licenses would cut down the outflow of alcohol from this city 500.000 gallons a month. This aleohol, he declared, had been going (o all sec- tions of the east. “This huge outflow of #aid Friedman, “has been supposed | to be used in the manufacture of | hair tonics, barber supplies, goaps, | pertumes, disinfectants and other supplies. Most ,or all of it, accord. | Ing to testimony brought out heforc | the grand jury, has been sold and diverted to ‘cover up' houses which | are establishments working to gel | lthe aleohol into the hands and places | of fllegal redistillers and finally on | bhe market for bev PUrposes. he whole business is a huge or- anized effort of individuals to break the law. Tt is a mase of Intersoven conspirators. In other words, vir- tually every person investi found to he operating flleg: place and with one concern was also found to be mixed up in combina tions with others which have been breaking the law.” Tndictments will be asked when the grand_ jury reconvenes on July 1" aleoho!," ¢ Personals George F.
