‘Threat to Shoot’Case
On April sth we telephoned
the office of the IT. S. Marshal
and asked if they were ready to
issue a complaint. ThP Marshal
said we should come over and
make tlie statements to whi h
we were supposed to swear.
This we did in the Marshal's
office, after which we went to
Commissioner Bryant's office
where we were asked to swear
to the statements we had madP
in the office of Marshal Metcalf.
We were told before hand as
we stated in a previous article
published on Wednesday April
7th that there was no chance
to obtain a warrant. On advice of
an attorney we were told to
point out tha; so-. 5811 and
5Slt! ((’. L. A. ) lead up to the
, section tinder which a complaint
may bo filed and a warrant
issued. This is section 5817 (C.
L. A.) 1 <t:?:? and it shows that
a warrant may bP issued if
harm is done and recites specif
ically that a threat to do harm
also calls for the issuance of a
warrant.
Expecting to find the complaint
made out in a way a person
could sign with out incrimination
imagine the sttprise of myself
_
and Mrs. Hunt when we were
presented with an instrument us
ing section 4778 and 5814 (CL
A.) 1933 as authority for the
issuanse of a warrant, for the
threat made by Mr. Forrest
Kennedy to ‘‘Gut-shoot" the
editor.
In order to he able to swear
to the iomplaint. we had to see
to the complaint, we had to see
he able to tell whether he was
armed or not.
Television via telephone has
not yet been installed in Seward
so we were unable to sign.
The Judge was quite gruff
and uncordial because we fail d
to do so.

Things are just “sew, sew”—at sea. A Coast Guardsman is a versatile
chap, adept with ropes, winches, paint brushes, and even the needle.
Here, Coast Guardsman Harold J. Adams, seaman first-class, of Ndw
Orleans, La., does some “fancy work” on a piece of canvas while the
curious puppy mascot, aptly named “Nosey,” climbs on his shoulder to
see what goes on. The man and the dog are shipmates on a Coast Guard
manned LST somewhere in the Pacific. Adams’ father is a Coast Guard
a chief machinist’s mate with 25 years in the service. •

Mrs. V F. Heed, with Susan,

Caro) and habv Mike drove out
tit*- highway Tuesday afternoon
to visit Edith Douglas. They
found Edith brooding over a
clothesline that had suddenly
snapped in two that morning,
dropping all her sheet blankets
on ro the soot-covered snow
W hen I saw Edith that same af
ernoon she wanted to know if
the air had been blue as far as
our place. Now 1 wonder if she
siiw any blue coming front our
direction Wednesday morning,
wIimi my clothesline gave 'way,
dropping all my white clothes
onto the ground. I; took Annet
ta and I almost an hour to get
that line ba.k up. With almost
eveyy step we took we stink up
to our knees in the slushy snow
Then when \v<> would brace our
; hands against what looked like
| a linn crust of snow, in order
■ to pull our feet free, th. sup
posed crust would give way and
lour arms would he buried al
most to our shoulders. Oh. for
several days of warm rain!
