-Webster fines McClung ten dollars on liquor in possession charge
"This man's family needs the money worse than the United States government," Federal Judge J. Stanley Webster said today in fining Albert McClung of Inchelium, quarter-breed Indian, $10 on a charge of having liquor in possession. A bottle was taken from the man but no claim had been made he had sold liquor. The court was told that McClung has a wife and six children and little money. The fine is one of the smallest given in federal court for liquor conviction.
