Ordered To Serve Suspended Sentence On Old Liquor Charge

Dalla Jones, 56, Hull avenue SE, was ordered to serve a three month suspended sentence on an old liquor charge after an affidavit by Deputy Sheriff Dick Payn alleged weekly complaints about liquor sales at Jones residence. The original six month sentence, begun Dec 21 1935, saw three months served with the rest suspended until the suspension was revoked by Judge H C Ring. Deputies found beer and a gallon of store whisky at Jones home, and Cecil Phelps admitted beer ownership and showed a liquor purchase log. Phelps faces possible revocation of his liquor permit. Jones was taken into custody Saturday afternoon by Sheriff James Smith.
