“ANTHONY ADVERSE”
IS CAUSE OF WOE
TO NOVEL READER
BAYONNE, N. J., July 11 (TP).—
Merril J. Liberty is going to have to
pay, and pay dearly, for reading the
voluminous novel “Anthony Adverse.”
Despite the length of the book, Lib
erty took a copy of it out of a
Bayonne rental library. That was
way back in 1933.
Today the rental library owner.
Max Rudolph, hailed Liberty into
court. He charged that no rent has
been paid on the booh and that it
has not been returned.
Judge Melniker decided that Lib
erty owed just $43 in rent on the
huge volume and $5 in costs.

POLITICAL ‘HI-SPOT’
HUBBY RELATED TO F. D.
R.; WIFE IS RELATED
TO LANDON
WASHINGTON, July 11 (TP)—Mr.
and Mrs. Ephraim Lillard found them
selves in a peculiar position today—
as regards politics.

work in the copyright division of the
library of congress. Looking up some
geneological records, Lillard found
that he and President Roosevelt have
•ancestors in common —John and Dor
othy Tuthill of Colonial Boston. Mrs.
Lillard’s great grandmother was Eliza
beth Landon of Ohio, a sister of Alf
Landon’s great grandfather.
The Lillards are going home to vote
this fall. By another coincidence, Lil
lard hails from Danville, Ky.. while
Mrs. Lillard comes from Danville, 111.
“We don’t think it would be right
to tell who we’re going to vote for,’’
Lillard said. “We think that both Lan
don and Roosevelt are fine men But,”
he added, smiling: “No matter who
wins we’ll have relatives in the White
House ”

LAWYER PRAISES
SUPREME COURT
LAKE WAWASEE, Ind., July 11
(TP) —The Indiana Bar Association
President, Fred Gause of Indianapolis
believes there should be no attempt
to limit the Supreme Court’s author

Lawser Gause told the fortieth

that lawyers should make it their
duty to explain to the public that the
national high court is necessary under
our Constitution.
“If we are to limit the court’s power
because we disagree with its deci
sions,” Gause declared, “then we
should clip congress’ wings if it passes
an unwise law.”

MOVE OF TELLER
POLICE SENT AWAY BY
IGNORANCE OF
CLERK
HARRISON. N. J.. July 11 (TP)—
An outlaw who tried to hold up the
Harrison National Bank came near
succeeding today because bank em
ployes who didn’t know about the
robbery sent a policeman away.
The would-be robber stepped up to
the cage of teller Thomas Sheridan.
He shoved a $3,000 draft under the
greating. With the draft he shoved
a letter ordering Sheridan to turn
over all the bank’s cash if he didn’t
want the bank blown to bits with
nitro-glycerine. The note said the
intruder had a whole bottle of the
deadly explosive in his pocket.
Sheridan moved his foot enough to
step on the burglar alarm. The
alarm rang outside the building. Traf
fic Patrolman Chatterall heard the
bell and came runnnig.
A teller who didn’t know about
Sheridan’s predicament told the po
liceman the alarm must have rung by
mistake. The officer went back to
his traffic post. The would-be rob
ber, however, noticed the confusion
and saw the policeman. He demand
ed an explanation. Sheridan told the
man that the burglar alarm had call
ed police. The intruder was so dis
concerted that Sheridan took a chance
and summoned the back watchman,
who was in the room. The watchman
made the arrest and held the prisoner
until Patrolman Chatterall could ba
called back.
The prisoner said he is Walter Hill
of Brooklyn. Police found an empty
.32 caliber pistol in his pocket. He
had no nitro-glycerin.
