Board of Supervisors seek state funding for Havner case
The Montgomery County Board asks Governor Harding to appoint Clyde L. Genung of Glenwood to prosecute Attorney General H. M. Havner in the State vs Havner case at Logan. They argue the state should cover prosecution costs and that the attorney general’s office funded by a special account should not name the prosecutor. The letter urges using the fund for a fair, impartial prosecution by Genung and to pay bills to Hess and Genung.
