' Describes Scene
} Perkins described from his
hospital bed how members of the
gang entered the gambling casino
land ordered approximately 50
patrons to hold up their hands.
Then, he said, shooting started in
‘;the dining room and' one of the
bandit crew, a small man, seized
him and used his body for a shield
until he shot him. Police said
this man was Meyers, who was
shot a few minutes later.
While patrons attired in dinner
clothes and expensive jewelry
clustered about gaming tables and
on the dance floor, the bandits
entered the kitchen of the club.
Oakford and Smith, the police
men, were in plain clothes and
were eating their supper.
Yarbrough, holding a sawed-off
shotgun under - his home-made
false arm, ordered kitchen em
ployes and the policemen to march
into the main dining room.
While three of the band at
temptcd to close and bar the
heavy kitchen doors, Yarbrough
and two others advanced with
drawn pistols, or. shotguns toward
the gambling casino. Oakford has.
tily drew his pistol and emptied
the chamber at the leaders while
the attention of the rear guard
was centered on closing the doors.
Yarbrough returned the fire, but
a bullet from the gun of one of
the two policemen wounded him
and he called to his companions
to “get out of here,” He fled amid
the panic.stricken guests, leaving
his companions inside. i
Eckman and Meyer were“
wounded during the ensuing gun(
batfle.
One member of the three-man‘
rear guard was wounded as he|
left “the building with the other
two, but escaped. Police failed toj
find him Saturday. 3

iattacking - Tammany Hall and
‘taking what all New York papers

In many political -circles the

Presidential nomination for which
Roosevelt is now the leading con

Assemblyman Louis A. Cuvil

Hofstadter committee, was among
those who took this view.
“There is no dount in my mind
that Judge Sedbury has set out to
make trouble not only for Govern

I “Judge Seabury has served no

unless the governor does what he

that ‘“for some time now several

Henry Ford Plans
To Place 400,000
Men Back on Jobs
DETROIT.— (AP) —Henry Ford
Saturday announced plans which,
if they can be carried out, will
provide employment for 400,000
men and require the expenditure
of hundreds of millions of dollars
during the remainder of 1332.
“We're going to put up every
thing we've got,”” he said, “to help
start the wheels a-turning.”
Declaring huge stocks of mate
rials have been brought into the
plants here or have been contract
ed for, he said he was pointing
at a possible production of the
recently announced new eight and
the improved four cylinder mod
els to begin probably next week
aud that he hoped to run the
output up to an average of from
5,000 to 6,000 units a day “before
very long.”
It was disclosed that Ford’s ef
fere to eliminate parts in the new
cars had delayed their presenta
tion. a 8
“Every time an engineer wants
to stick something on, I study
how to take something off, to
make it simpler,” Ford said.
“That’s the way we’ve been
working for weeks,” said one of
the engineers. “Otherwise we
would have been out weeks ago.”
Fora reiterated his previous
statement that he had no posi
tive assurance that a market ex
isted for 1,500,000 cars during the
remainder of the year. “We are
going to try and find oum,” he
said. “We are going to deo our
utost, risk everything if necessary
to see if we cannot make what
the country needs most—work—
jobs,” he said.
Of the 400,000 men to whom re
sumption of Ford activities is ex
pected to provide employment,
Ford said 100,000 would be on the
company’s payroll in the Detroit
area alone while the remiander
will be recalled by the 5,500 firms
throughout the United States that
supply it with parts and raw ma
terials.

The burly gangster has been in
the county jail since Oct. 24 when
Federal Judge James H., Wilker
son gave him the stiffest penalty
ever recorded in an income tax
case, 11 years imprisonment and
350,000 fine, For four months he
ha¢ been awaiting the csuteome of
the appeal and getting no credit
on his sentence.
l The appellate court found no
basis for Capone's contention that
!the indictments against him were
insufficient: and that he had been
deprived of his constitutional
rights.
The appellate court wusually
,waits 20 days before ordering a
defendant to prison, giving his a7~
torneys time to file a petition for
| rehearing. It was announced at
lthe district attorney’s office, how
ever, that “because of the unusual
nature of the case” the high court
would be asked Monday to dis
solve the writ of supersedeas now

SCIENTISTS WARN
CIVILIZATION TO
PUT END TO WAR
PASADENA, Cal—(AP)— Three
authorities of science and history
warned Saturday night that civi
lization will destroy itself by its
own progress .if nations fail to kill
forever the danger of war.
The men, Albert Einstein, Robert
A. Millikan and Charles A. Beard,
speaking over a natlonal radio sys
temm at a program “in the interest
of public opinion,” sought to point
out the ways to peace through the
ordered functions of sober govern
ments. {
Said Einstein: *“The creation of
an International court of arbitra
tion is not sufficient. Through
agreement, the assurance must
also be present that the decisions
of this court will be enforced by
all the nations acting in comon.”
Millikan kzld for “participation
of the United States in the World
court as the next rational step to
ward world peace as recommend
ed by every President since the
war and by ninety-four per cent
of a most intelligent and informed
group of American citizens, irre.
spective of party . . .
Beard said: “Herein, it seems to
me, lies the only hope for the fu
ture—the steady and unremitting
insistence upon a domestic policy
which reduces all the chances of
war and a cooperative policy with
respect to all foreign relations.”

rious candidates ran well into the
millions, The utmost accuracy
was sought by the judges in tally
' ing each contestant’s vouchers and
votes and to say that was a most
difficult and tedjousrtask is putting
it mildly. Very fortunately the
gentlemen who served as judges
were all accustomed to handling

' great exactness and this fact made
‘lt possible to complete the count

take this means of expressing its
thanks and its sincere gratitude to
everp contestant in the list for the
part in making the campaign the
' most talked of subject, not alone in

It is doubtful if there was a
home in the entire territory that
was not interested in the success
of some one of the candidates.

ballot box and every individual
“candidate regardless of his stand
ing in the list, should feel proud
today of the hundreds of friends
who supported him in this electior.

in the election by one of its most
popular ecitizens.

than were the ladies and gentle
men who competed in The Ban

To the very competent judges
who worked so faithfully and _ so
carefully in the task of countng

dry, and advocated a new amend
ment to the Constitution to give
each state the rignt to determine
its method of liquor control by
popular referendum.
His address was made before the
forum of the National Democratic
club.
“To say that prohibition is not
an dssue is stupid,” he declared,
“and I don’t believe the men that
say that believe it themselves.”
He cited the Wickersham report
in support of his contention that
prohibition cannot be enforced.
Of Hoover he said:
“I claim that he made himself
the dry leader of the United States
because he rejected the only plan
that was suggested in the Wick
ersham report. If it isn’t an issue
why did he have to talk about it
in his speech of acceptance? If
it isn't a political issue why did
“he have to bring the commission
into existence?”
“Leaders” Dry
Mr. Smith said that in the
south only the political leaders
were dry, and they because they
depended upon the direct primary
for nomination. He claimed the
primaries -are participated in by
the drys, neglected by the wets.
“Relief, if it is going to come
to this country, can only come
tarough the agency of the Demo
cratic party,” he continued. “There
is no use of looking to the Repub
licans. The door of hope and of
opportunity there has been closed
vears ago.”
Mr. Smith endorsed the Raskob
home rule plan for liquor control
saying that, “if Kansas wants to
be dry, I want it to be dry. If
Texas wants to be dry, I am with
Texas. But I want to say to Kan
sas that if New York wants to be
wet, you will be kind enough to
take that same kind of an atti
tude.”
! BORAH STILL DRY
( WASHINGTON —(AP)— Confi
dence that the Republican national
convention’ would adhere to previ
ous dry pledges was voiced Satur
day by Senator Berah (R., Idaho)
in the face of eastern demands for
a reépeal plank at the Chicago
meeting in June.
The action of New Je - sey Re
publicars in recommending that
its delegation work for a. repca!
declaration drew no comment from
the Idahoan, but he recalled thal
8 similar effort failed in 1928.
Senator Borah was a member of
the resolutions commlittee at the
Kansas City convention four years
‘ago and was largely responsible

New Jersey and other eastern
Republicans appear determined to
fight for a repeal or modification
plank. Some have attempted to
lobi:aln President Hoover’s sanction
for a new -declaration on prohibi.

executive - has made no promises.

Adolph Hitler Now
German Citizen;
Warns Hindenburg
BERLIN.—(AP)—AdoIf Hitler,
a man- without a coutry for 18
vears, made his debut as a Ger
man citizen Saturday ' night - by
opening his campaign for the
Presidency of Germany - before
15,000 frenzied Fascist followers
that packed Berlin’'s sports pal
ace.
The Nazl leader -promised the
present républic would fall and
with it the international treaties
that 'had “humiliated, degraded
and made Germany ridiculous.”
Declaring that the Nazis honor
ed hig rival, President Paul Von
Hindenburg, and <wanted his
name respected in posterity, Hit
ler addressed words of warning
to the veteran incumbent.
“Old man,” he said, “those be
hind you want to destroy you.
You must step aside. They want
to fight and we do, t 00.,”
Hitler was admitted to German
citizenship Friday by his accept
ance of an appointment as coun
géllor to the Brunswick legation
in Berlin.
There is a superstititous belief
that the amethyst will dispel
sleep, sharpen the intellect, pre
yex&t,, intoxication, give yictory to
soldiers and protect from sorcery.
