Robber 01 Two Loan Companies Sought Two Indiana Firms Are Robbed Thursday Logansport, Ind., May 26—(UP) —Police today sought a man in a brown raincoat and sunglasses who they believe held up loan firms here and in Lafayette yesterday and stole $630 after forcing employes of both companies to get down on the floor. State police said descriptions of the bandit at both places tallied. The Signature Loan company of Lafayette was held up first and S4OO taken. A few hours later, the Leavall and Bates Loan company here was burglarized. In each case, the bandit applied for a loan before pulling out a gun. At Lafayette, his reply when asked how much money he wanted was “all you got.” He forced clerk Gordon F. Gaylord and a girl clerk onto the floor and fled with the cash. At Logansport, the bandit walked upstairs to the loan firm, applied for a loan and asked the requirements. “That’s a little rugged,” he said and walked out. A few minutes later he was back, a gun in his hand. He ordered employes on the floor and instructed one of them to hand him the cash drawer. “Don’t stick your head out the window or someone will get his head blown off,” he said as he ran. Police said they were unable to get an adequate description of the auto used in each robbery. More than half of the farm land in the United States is in farms with more than 500 acres, compared to only one-third that much in»farms that sizze in 1920.
