Writ Stays In Swift Packets Vault Case
Chicago February 13 Attorneys for Henry Veeder general counsel for Swit & Companys filed a writ of error and obtained a super sedeal from the United States circuit court of appeals in the government search warrant case. The filing protests delay in further search of the Packers vault for evidence in the federal trade commission investigation.

He added the men sought will not get away and this may test how far a search warrant can go in felonies cases.
