Clyde men held on cream felony charge
Gilbert Watson, his brother Ray Watson and George Parry were arrested in Clyece Monday and will be charged with willful and malicious destruction of property a felony. The state dairy office began the probe after cream operators statewide refused to buy oil preparation from Percy Shivvers who traveled the state as a salesman. The oil was meant to adulterate cream to raise butterfat but produced worthless butter. Over 3,000 tubs of butter are tied up in Chicago due to the oil. Percy Shivvers is building a barge to move a sand pump and engine into the stream to improve pumping. Dallas Cady plans a cream station in the Preble building connected to Phillips 66.
