U. S. Government Ac- cused of Prosecut- ing Case to Avoid Paying Destruction Penalty.

, La... June 6—-(A.P.) -The United States Government was accused by defence counsel to- day of prosecuting Dan Hogan for no season save to prorve the Can- adian schooner I'm Alone was a rum nnuggler and thus avoid pay- ing the Canadian‘ Government a. penalty for her destruction by the coast guard.

The charge was made in a peti- tion to quash Hogan's indictment ls he went on trial here under sc- cusation of participating in oper- ations of the I'm Alone which was sunk off the Louisiana coast in March, I929.

The motion was denied by Fed- eral Judge Ben C. Dawkins.

Hogan is already under convict- ion of conspiring to violate the prohibition laws in the operations 0r‘ an international syndicate en- gaged in shipping liquor ' inland from the Louisiana coast.

u:

Double r '

Seth Lewis, defence attorney. charged he was being placed in “double jeopardy" in view of his previous conviction; A

‘The present trial charges viola- tion of the tariff laws in connec- tion with the operations of the “I'm Alone" which went down under coast guard fire with the loss of one life. Its Canadian reg- istry led to international exchang- es and the appointment of an arb- itration commission. "They must show the Canadian Government that liquor was actually carried on the boat to Justify the shilling of the ‘I'm Alone‘ ". Lewis said.

Cover Long Period

On the plea of double Jeopardy. the defence claimed. ~the other conspiracy conviction covered al- leged offences from April l, 1929 to July 1, 1039, and that the pres- ent indictment was drawn to cover a period earlier in i029 in order to bring in alleged operations of the Canadian schooner.

Judge Dawkins ruled that the trial evidence would show whether the two Josecutions covered the same ground.

Selection of a jury was completed late today to try Hogan and the three others charged with conspir- acy to violate the tariff laws.

Defendants with Hogan are Frank Allen, of New York; Sidney Schaub- hut and Louis Bchaubhut.

iTxBiniis BESTRDYED BY Lin:

A destrudtive fire reduced to ash- es six barns, three large ones and

er Monday night and yesterday morning. The buildings destroyed were the property of Mr. John Jewel, a prominent farmer of North River, and with their contents were valued at several thousand dollars. The framework of a barn under construction was also bum- ed.

The greater part of the contents of these buildings went up in flames, including 20 tons of hay, 400 bushels of oats, 80 bushels of wheat, 2 tons of fertilizer and all the machinery. Six calves and four pigs perished, but fortunately the horses and poultry were saved. The neighbors quickly gathered and rendered every possible assist- ance but as the buildings were all close together it was impossible to save them. The dwelling house, however, was saved, although it was in imminent danger.

The cause of the fire has not been ascertained. The blaze started in a straw stack and was first no- ticed at 8.30 Monday evening by one of Mr. Jewel's sons, who at- tempted to stamp it out, but find- ing it impossible, ran for water.

The flames spread so rapidly, however, that in a comparatively short time the buildings were ablaze. ‘

African Chiefs Now Economise

NEW YORK, June c.-(c.P.)- 'I‘riba1 chiefs in South Africa, es- pecially those in Basutoland, must know their economics nowadays to hold their jobs. It seems members of the numerous tribes are thirsty for knowledge of the intricacies of the gold standard, currency stabili- zation and other economical prob- lems now confronting most parts of the world.

Osvvin B. Bull, director of techni- cal education in Basutolnnd, has recommended to tbs British gov- ernment the tribal chiefs of his territory be given vocational train- ing. .

Describing conditions in this lit- tle known piece of the British Em- pire befors the Race Relations de- partmeni; of the Federal Council of Churches here, Mr. Bull said the 600,000 blacks live in peace under their chiefs and under tho British Colonial oflice commissioners.

The position of chief, he pointed out, is hereditary "and we have found they have a tendency to take advantage of their position. ‘They must be instructed in civic duty, must have a smattering of book keeping and economics, a little of agriculture and knowledge of their own tribal laws.

More and more members of the various tribes are going to their chiefs for explanation of various problems and the chief unable to explain finds himself in an embar- rassing position, the speaker said. Mr. Bull, in addition to other duties, is principal of the Iorotholi Technical school at Maseru, where msflllsl arts and native crafts are taught. With the development of 800d roads he has organized a foot- ball league and is now looking for- ward to arranging a schedule of games for the championship of Basutoland.

Chief Justice's Address

In addressing the Grand Jury His Lordship said they had be...‘ called upon at this term to deal with several criminal cases. The most serious, is that of Edmund Arsenault. His Lordship reviewed very briefly the evidence of the chief witness at the preliminary hearing and spoke of the serious- ness of the charge.

In referring to the charge against Avard Jelly, His Lordship said that he had never had a case oi‘ that nature in all his experience; but although the case was without pre- cedence in this Province, it was an llldlfiliflblg offense and a serious one. ' His Lordship then reviewed the Sheriff's report of the prisoners 1n the jail and spoke particularly of the number imprisoned for driving to the common danger. This mat- ter has been before Grand Juries time and again and they have brought in resolutions, which have sometimes been acted upon and sometimes ignored.

You are here to consider these things regardless of how they are received. From the earliest times in this Province it has been the custom for Grand Juries to bring down reports on conditions dealing with the public service; many times these reports have brought immed- iate action of an important kind. You as the Grand Jury should not hesitatg to express your un- biased opinion on any matter deal- ing with the public service.

His Lordship also commented upon the satisfactory condition of the Court House and asked the Grand Jury to inspect and report on it.

The jury then retired.

Grand Jury's Report

About 5.30 pm. the Grand Jury brought in their report, after in- specting the jail, which was as foi- lows: » To His Lordship, the Chief Jus- tice, may it please Your Lord- ship. We the Grand Jury of Prince County at the June 1933 sitting of the Supreme Court beg leave to re- port as follows: Have visited and inspect d the lower cells, find the walls newly whitened and cells in good condition, the ceilings in the corridors are in bad condition and need repairs. Floor in upper pris- on is in bad order. Would recom- mend hardwood floor on this room and the hall, the ceilings are also in very bad condition, the plaster being in need of repair. The wiring in this room looks defective and should be inspected. The window sills in the upper prison are in bad order. They have large holes in them that we consider fire traps. In the mens toilet we find the floor 1n bad condition and should be repaired. We also wish to report that the ceiling in the lower kitch- en is all down and would recom- mend the plaster being replaced with a. metal ceiling and the floor coated with cement.

The women's department we find in good condition and the changes recently made are very commend- able. We would however recom- mend better ventilation. We would recommend some means provided in a way of a fire escape on the fourth floor which is used by the jarutor and his family who would be shut off in case of a fire in the lower flat.

In regard to motor traffic we wish to report that there are many cases of reckless driving, especially through country villages, and would recommend strict enforcement of motor laws and also that signs be placed at the entrances to villages drawing the attention of motorists to the speed limit.

We would also recommend the use of reflectors on all horse drawn vehicles as a. safeguard. Respectfully submitted by the Grand Jury, Thomas E. Gillespie, foreman, for self and fellows.

Jury Report Commended

His Lordship on receiving the re- port expressed his appreciation of the excellent way in which the jury had discharged a large volume of business with every care and con- sideration. He said the report show- ed a careful and thorough exam- ination cf the jail premises and their recommendations were prac- tical and would no doubt be acted upon in due course. The remarks dealing with reckless driving o! motor vehicles an; to the point and would no doubt tum ihc tide of

public opinion in that direction.

It is a danger ic both the driver of the carriage and of the automobile. Not only may i‘. cost th¢ life cf those in the car- riagc but also those in tho car. Moreover. a perfectly innocent
