Sullivan Offer of Prosecution Aid Is Scorned
In a northern Arizona gambling and bribery case, five men have been arrested including Attorney General John L. Sullivan. Special prosecutor Greer predicts multiple slot machine operators will be arrested soon as Sullivan faces triple conspiracy charges. Signatures for a venue change are sought, with Sullivan aiming to move the trial to Navajo County. Greer rejects any prosecution aid by Sullivan, insisting the attorney general cannot join the case as a prosecutor. Arraignments are set for Sullivan and co defendants in St Johns with multiple counts each.

House Would Slash Navy Appropriation
The House Appropriations Committee recommended a 1 per cent cut in the Navy budget for 1848, potentially trimming the planned strength of the Navy and Marine Corps by 40,000. It reduced 377.6 million from the President's request of 3.513 billion, but said the smaller total should remain adequate without sacrificing fleet efficiency or essential naval activities.
