Shumaker Lie Charged in Gilliam Brief for Longer Sentence

Attorney General Arthur L. Gilliam filed a Supreme Court brief seeking a sentence increase for Rev. E. B. Shumaker, superintendent of the Indiana Anti-Saloon League, alleging perjury and attempts to influence the court. Trial records show Shumaker faced contempt charges with a prior penalty of 250 dollars and sixty days, and Gilliam argues that Shumaker sought political influence over the court by contacting Senate leaders and party figures during 1926. The brief asserts witnesses Watson and Wilson told the truth about a telephonic conversation on Aug. 5 and claims Shumaker falsified under oath regarding those discussions. The case is expected to be decided by Christmas.
