DRUSGAN WELCOMES U. S. AGENTS WHEN THEY VISIT FARM Declaring that the ouster of Mrs. Myrtle Tanner Blacklidge, internal revenue collector, from his estate on Wednesday was "all a mistake" Ter-- ry Drugzan, renowned Chicago rack-- eteer, proved himself to be a £Al lant and genial host in welcoming Mrs. Blacklidge and three other re presentatives of the United States government in their visit tc{ his Declares the OQuster of Mrs. Blacklidge in Previous Visit Was a Mistake. Sanola farm Thursday. The four visited the estate to in-- spect th¢e property on which the gov:-- ernment bas placed an attachment in an effort to collect $300,000 which they claim as being due from Drug-- gan in unpaid assessments on in-- come tax. Seize Funds in Waukegan. While Druggan represented the utmost in politeness in greeting the representatives of the federal goVv-- ernment he and his attorney, Capt. William F. Waugh are not so keen about the tactics of the government. They contend that the government has placed an attachment on money Cue Druggan from a Waukegan Milk company and that as this money was to be used in feeding the coWs on the farm, the bovines naturally will go hungry. Mrs. Blacklidge was accompanied to the farm by Robert Neely, her chief deputy; Dwight H. Green, as-- sistant U. S. district attorney and J. C. Mitchell, collections supervis-- or. While the four drove into the farm. a couple of husky gunmon drove a retinue of newspaper re-- porters and cameramen ont. Druggzan, always the gallant, com pletely ignored his fine raiment, pat-- ent ljeather shoes, graYy suit, gray hat, black top coat and red necktlie. Commends His Gallantry. "He was a perfect gentlemen," Mrs. Blacklidge asserted as she departed "HMe showed us all over the build-- ings and grounds and was very nice about it. "Of course, there were only 43 cows in the sheds and we had been told there would be 51.' But without our asking the eight others were brought in from the pasture. Really I can't say 'how much they are worth. I'll have to bhave them ap-- praised." Capt. William F. Waugh, as at-- torney for Drugga nand Frank Lak®, had previously discussed those cows with Mrs. Blacklidge. They are blooded Guernseys, at least 35 ot them are Wangh said, and he es timated their value at 0_5000 No Money--No Feed. "I asked her to please take the cows,." Capt. Waugh stated, "or to let us sell the milk. She had served a distraint warrant on the milk com-- pany at Waukegan which prevented near Lake Zurich, on it from paying for milk from Drug-- gan's cows. That money goes to feed the cows. No milk money, no feed, so Mrs. Blacklidge is welcome to "She can have the brewery in Chi-- cago, too, and if there is one bid-- der for it at auction I'm crazy. She thinks it's worth a lot of money, and it might have been back in the foamy days, but let her try to sell it now and sh'll see." As a gentleman and a scholar Capt. Waugh admitted that if the output is as good as it has been ro-- puted to be Mrs. Blacklidge might get enough out of the brewery to pay off the national debt. Bift as a lawyer he would admit nothing. "I'm trying to conduct a business deal with the sovernment," he ex-- plained. "I'm trying to arrange for Druggan and Lake to pay whatever they can to the government as in-- come tax, but if the government wants a beer business and a milk business it may have them. "Druggan and Lake were indicted for failing to file income tax returns inin 1922%, 1923, 1924 and 1925. The government clltmeil- Druggan own-- ed something over $300,000 and that Lake owed $200,000. Each of them offered to $50,000 as a settlement and it seemed that this would hbe accepted. But then the government claimed they made false statements regarding their possessions and in-- dicted them again. "Now the <government wants to levy on them. Druggan's mother owns the farm and they can't take that. from her. Theoretically Terry owns the cows and Uncle Sam is welcome to them.
