THAN IN 1925 WHEN KING
OPERATED

and his former official associ
j ates were described by the de

and group of felons’’ in the final
defense argument to the jury.
Hubbard’s story was devised,
he charged, “to have Lyle’s dirty
hide” and said the government
case was “surrounded by suspi
cion and conjecture and that
| the defendents are paying the
; penalty of honorable service to
the United States.”

are as bad, if not worse today,
as in 1925 when the Olmsted
ring was operating.

tice took over enforcement in
July, not a single boat has been
1 seized, he said, and described

tramp of a parade from McNeil

ernment witnesses came from.
