Link Slain Banker To Huge Shortage Leon Marcus' Name Crops Up In Probe m CHICAGO (UP> — A possible link between the mystery slaying of a Chicago banker and an estimated multi-million-dollar shortage in the office of the Cook County treasurer was investigaged today by authorities. The name of Leon Marcus, wealthy banker who was shot to death in a gang-style “ride" March 31, cropped up in the probe Wednesday when his initials were found on an allegedly fraudulent check issued by the county treasurer’s office. State's Atty. Benjamin Adamowski said the check for $3,654 was cashed at the Southmoor Bank and Trust Co., which Marcus formerly headed. It was the same bank where Illinois' ex-State Auditor Orville E. Hodge cashed phony state checks in his $2,500,000 embezzlement, “If we keep digging, we may even learn who killed Marcus,” the state’s attorney said. Adamowski has estimated the total loss in the treasurer's office may reach three Million dollars. The state's attorney said he

“susMctad” that another apparently bogus check for |7,4M drawn against county funds also was approved by the bank with Marcus' knowledge. Marcus was kidnaped and shot by gunmen who dumped his body in' a vacant lot on Chicago's Southwest Side. Adamowski said his investigators were seeking Lionel Ives, one time South Side bookie now believed living in Florida, for questioning about the two checks from the treasurer's office. He said checks in the same amount were issued to Ives by the bank Shortly after they were presented to the bank. 19-Year-Old Youth Is Killed In Mine SHAMOKIN, Pa. <UPJ - The body of 19-year-old Frank Pufnock, trapped Tuesday beneath tons of debris in a shale slide at his father’s independent mining operation, was recovered Wednesday night by a weary rescue crew. The youth’s body was found 80 feet inside a tunnel extending from the bottom of a. sloping mine shaft almost 38 hours after he was buried under 50 tons of rubble.

Reply Received On Skip-Trace Letter Reply Received By Local Postmaster <w A reply was received recently by postmaster Leo Kirsch from the federal trade commission concerning the “skip-trace” letter received May 4 by a Geneva resident. The letter appeared to be from a government agency, but was actually from an agency interested in finding the address of a person who owed money to a collection agency. i Kirsch sent the letter to the federal trade commission, which had ordered the company to cease and desist from sending out such forms. He received a reply from the compliance division thanking him for his interest, and informing him that the matter was under consideration to determine whether corrective action was warranted in the case. The National Research company, which sent out six types of forms,, was ordered June 1, 1956, to stop using the forms. At the time of the original order it was sending out six different kinds of forms from different addresses. The company’s headquarters is in Los Angeles, Calif. ■ But it maintained mail addresses in Washington, D. C. and used official looking cars, with the eagle on them. One type, called the “Claims Office" form, was addressed from the Claims Office, 100 Barr Building, Washington, D. C., and asked that certain information, including debit’s name, address, present employer, and address, and bank reference be returned. These cards said that a certain amount of money was collectible, and that the identification was needed by the office to pay the money. Actually,- of course, the address of credit reference was wanted to collect an unpaid bill. The FTC points out, in the decision against the company, that while it is a fine thing to help merchants to recover losses to merchants due to the deceit of the debtor, it is just as wrong for the assisting agency to use deceit in its collection, and two wrongs do not make a right. . The FTC held that it was in the public interest to require that creditors not use dishonest methods in collecting debts.

The type of letter received in Xlcupva was not one of the six originally used by the company, but was of the same type, leading the receiver to believe that the form had been sent by an official government agency. The company also used “reverification office” forms, credit control bureau forms, “new employment status” questionnaires, “disbursements office" forms, "cigarette" forms, and “gasoline" forms. The cigarette form purported to
