Witnesses Sent Abroad by Wards Says Prosecutor
Albany April 25 The state's inquiry into the slaying of Clarence Peters of Haverhill Massachusetts by Walter Ward of New Rochelle advanced as Attorney General Sherman disclosed new information from an independent investigation. The probe suggests attempts to bar the state from calling certain witnesses, and alleges the Ward family arranged for passage of Peters’s sweetheart and others to England, with steamer tickets handed to a purser. Radio Corporation of America officials refused to surrender cablegrams as subpoenaed, provoking Sherman to threaten warrants for their release.
