T FIGHT ON JUDGE LINDSEY GOES
TO GRAND JURY
Denver, Col., March 18. The bit
ter fight which has centered about
Judge Ben B. Lindsey of the juvenile
court for years is to have a complete
airing. This was the assurance from
District Attorney Rush today- He is
preparing to call witnesses from both
sides who have been prominent in
the-fight, and in addition will welcome
any other testimony that may be of
fered. Judge Lindsey today declared he
was anxious for the inquiry to get un
der way and expressed the belief that
some of his enemies would be under
indictment before the matter is
closed. Dr. Mary E. Bates, head of
the Women's Protective league, and
one of the leaders in the long fight
which has heen waged against the
judge, also expressed her pleasure at
the prospects of a grand jury probe.
She insisted that evidence will be pre
sented to back up charges made
against Lindsey.
Perjury, libel, falsifying records,
theft and forgery are only a few of
the charges vwhich have been hurled.
