It was shown by this investigation that there had been: “A general disregard of the law among all classes of people, including those who made the law. “Creation of thousands of moonshine- ers among both country and city dweil- Creation of an army of bootleggers. n amazing increase in the traffic in poisions and deadly concoctions and drugs. n increased rate of insanity, blind- ness and crime among the users of these concoctions and drugs. “Increase in unemployment. “Increases In taxes to city, state and natlonal governments amounting approx- imately to one thousand million dollars per_year.

It was planned to begin tomorrow by assembling data for handills to be sent throughout the country, to supplement the information regarding the missing man already distributed broadcast. Herman Cline, police detective, pointed out that while no reward was offered for the location of Sands, against whom a felony charge is on file here, rewards to- talling $4,500 have been offered for in- formation leading to the arrest and con- viction of the murderer. “We have run down tip after tp with- out results” sald Cline. ‘Now we will concentrate upon finding Sands, with the hope that we shail either prove correct our first suspicions that he has informa- tion bearing on the crime, or eliminate him.” Absence of anything approaching what they termed a “foehold” in the way of a clue caused sherift's deputies and district attorney's agents to take an enforced holiday in the investigation today. Police Sergeant Jack Stelzerelde was reported tonfght to have gone to San Francieco to search for a woman to whom three telegrams bearing on the Taylor case were said to have been sent on the night the director was murdered, and one the next day.
