Today -100: July 30, 1926: If Catholics, scarfaces, and evangelists


The Mexican government is expecting trouble when the anti-Catholic Church law comes into effect. Catholics are ordered disarmed, newspaper editors are arrested. Vatican officials are discussing putting an interdict on the whole country, although the pope is wary.

The state of Illinois admits that it doesn’t have enough evidence to charge Al Capone with the murder of Assistant State’s Attorney William McSwiggin, so he’s released from prison after one (1) day.

Aimee Semple McPherson, evangelist-extraordinaire, will be investigated by the L.A. County Grand Jury for perjury at the hearing into her alleged kidnapping. Witnesses have been called who saw her on her sex romp in Carmel when she was supposed to be tied up in a cabin in Mexico.
