Shelton attorney John C. Ragan, who represented Herbert E. Johnson, who had petitioned for the hearing on the department action, told the court he had notified Johnson of the hearing date twice but had not heard from him. One witness was called by Deputy Attorney General Elsa Kirscher, former Police Patrolman Robert Trail. Trail testified he had stopped Johnson April 26, 1973 after observing his driving in the city of Shelton. He testified Johnson had performed some physical tests at the scene of the stop and was then arrested on a charge of driving while intoxicated. After being taken to the Mason County jail, Trail said, Johnson had refused to take the breathalyzer test or to perform any further physical tests. Trail said a video tape had been taken of Johnson in the jail, but that it had been erased after the case against Johnson was dismissed in District Court. The video tape, which was shown to the judge, was the basis for the concen el on dismissal action, Trail said. After the testimony by the officer, Ragan asked the department action be dismissed on the grounds that the video tape, which had been erased, was not available to be used as evidence in determining if there was basis for the arrest of Johnson on the charge. suspens,on Ms. Kirscher told the court under the law the officer had only to have probable cause for the arrest and, according to the officer's testimony, there was probable cause. Judge Hewitt Henry, who heard the case, refused to dismiss the department action in suspending Johnson's license.

Kind of loyalty My kind of loyalty was loyalty to one's country, not to its institutions or its officeholders. The country is the real thing, the substantial thing, the eternal thing; it is the thing to watch over, and care for, and be loyal to; institutions are extraneous, they are its mere clothing, and clothing can wear out, become ragged, cease to be comfortable, cease to protect the body from winter, disease, and death. To be loyal to rags, to shout for rags, to worship rags, to die for rags - that is a loyalty of unreason, it is pure animal; it belongs to monarchy, was invented by monarchy; let monarchy keep it. I was from Connecticut, whose Constitution declares "that all political power is inherent in the people, and all free governments are founded on their authority and instituted for their benefit; and that they have at all times an undeniable and indefeasible right to alter their form of government in such a manner as they may think expedient."
