DIJON YOUTHS FORM MAFIA TO LOOT ANO ROB Young French Criminals Finally Captured After Terror Reign By Richard D. McMillan 1 United Press Staff Correspondent Dijon, France. Feb. 8 —(UP)— When the dreaded Mafia secret so- , clety di/ d in Italy it came to life . again in tills pleasant university town in the heart of the burgundy wine district, with 15 young rascals ; belonging to good families as the guiding spirits. . Thirsting for excitement, these boys of the Dijon Mafia kept the city in terror on and off for two . years before they were finally trac- ( ed to their elaborately protected lair , in the heart of Ihe town and carted off to prison. The chief lieutenant of the newborn Mafia was Ihe son of a local magistrate and he knew as many crooked tricks as the wiliest old offenders whom his father had sent off from lime to time to Devil’s Island. He was the brains behind the 3rgairizgtion, although only 15 years old, and it was principally under his direction that hold-ups were taged, houses burgled, autos stolen n or ler to provide a flying squad for the secret society, blackmail extorted and various acts of vengeance carried oitt. While the ringleaders are lying in jail awaiting trial, the police nave been busily cleaning up their headquarters in an underground 1 wine cave in Lijon. The cave was discovered to be a veritable arsenal with weapons of all kinds stacked ■ in assorted piles ready for use when 1 the bold bad boys crept from then beds at night, while their parents ’ slept, and set out on their moon light deeds of daring. Rich men, friends of the boys’ families, were held up in tlie shad i owy streets and robbed of all they carried and often next day the Imai I hospitals leceived donations which apparently came fiom the Mafia, i thus indicating that the young cavaliers of the round table had not forgotten the usages of chivalry. I After they had organized their I auto flying squad, the boys got to > gelher a river patrol fleet with I which from time/to time, they stacked shipping on the river, or lent i aid from the water in midnight at . tacks upon fashionabl villas built on the riverside. i So secretly did the boys work tha' mon lis passed before the police began to get on the right track and . when that happened the boys lai.l low. The towhsfolk then heaved a sigh of relief, believing that tlie lacing gang of criminals had passed o another hunting ground. When •alm had been restored, the society would hurst into full activity again Sim ■ the break-up of the gang it has been shown that all were bound by ;.n elaborate' oath not io betray the organization. Once or wire traitors had appeared, but vengeance was carritd out quickly. Once as a gesture against tlie maltreatment of one of the gang by a uhoolma.-ter — the gangster was still attending school—the society wrecked the schoolhouse without leaving a Jrace. Since th- ariest of his son, the magistrate has resigned and other local potentates have been equally 'mbaTyassel by revelation of th? identities of other youths in the gang. WHEELER PLANS RESOLUTION IN CONGRESS SOON ((■ONTINIT.D I'l’JiM PAGE ONE) the Williamson bill proposing transfer of enforcement from Lite treasury to the justice department.
