ACCUSES OFFICERS OF WIRE TAPPING Chicago Attorney Lays Trap, Plans to Obtain Warrants Chicago, June 6 (P—Louis Juett, former city prosecutor, said today that he would swear out war- rants for the arrest of State’'s At- tornegy John A. Swanson and Po- lice - Captain Wjlliam Shoemaker, charging the two officials and sev- eral aides with having tapped tele- phone wires to his law office. Piquett, now engaged in private practice, said he also would file papers for $100,000 damages against the owner of the building where his offices are, alleging that he authorized the wire tapping. The reason for the wire tapping, Piquett believes, was the state's at- torney's investigation into the slot machine scandal which has result- ed in several indictments. Piquett hecame identified with the case act- ing as attorney for a witness. When he learned that the wires were tapped, Piquett said, he had a friend make several phone calls, the friend each time identifying himself over the phone as “High Pockets” O'Brien, who fled to Eng- land when the state’s attorney sought him in the slot machine case., “Hello, this is O'Brien.” the voice would say, according to Piquett's story. “Meet me right away at Clark and Madison.” - Piquett said he would then stroll over to Clark and Madison where he observed a squad car racing up, apparently on information from the tapped wires. Piquett continued having “O’'Brien” phone him for a week, each time giving a new ad- dress for a meeting. On cach occa- sion, he said, squad cars appeared.
