I for this crisis is on the mine owners.

CRAVING FOR EXCITEMENT IS MOTIVE FOR AUTO THEFTS Lads Held as Car Thieves Confess More Than Thirty Stealings, and Threo Admit Part in Death Car • Incident. BY DICK MILLER. Graving for excitement was the motive that impelled the seven 17-year-old boys under arrest for auto stealing. Three of the seven were held for manslaughter. Their combined confessions listed the theft of more than thirty automobiles. From behind bars in the city prison today they talked of the game they played—the excitement they sought and found. Samuel Wilson, 3932 Washington Boulevard, charged with manslaughter as a result of the death of Miss Josephine Burns, seemed little concerned over the charges aganist him. He was the driver of the ear which collided with the ear in which Miss Burns was riding.

ALI Are Tech Students He explained that the seven boys met at Technical High School, where they were all students and that their meetings there resulted in plans to steal automobiles. Wilson is a tall frail looking boy and he frequently wiped his large, heavy rimmed glasses. He frequently asked for a cigarette and complained of the food and water in the jail. "I was driving about thirty-five miles an hour when I struck the automobile in which Miss Burns was riding.’ he said. He said he learned to drive for a man with whom he lived.

Easy to Steal Cars “I want to tell you something else,” I he said. “Every car we stole was i dtlier left unlocked or the keys were left in it. It wasn’t hard at all to take them. “Gee,” he added, “I hope that jail across the street has some fresh air and some cold drinking water.” Albert Johnson, SOS S. Stale Ave., also charged with manslaughter, dressed in a late model tweed suit, spent most of his time singing. Occasionally he would pull at the tiny knot of his tie or pass his hands over his greased hair, which was rapidly becoming mussed. Interested in Penalty Johnson’s deepest interest seemed to be in whether the penalty for manslaughter was two to twenty-one years or three to fourteen years. Fellow prisoners did not seem to be able to settle the question to his satisfaction. “Luck seemed to lead me wrong.” was his only comment when asked If he did not fear the outcome or his arrest. “The breaks were against me.’ Probably the deepest outwardly af

“Mere Desire for Auto Ride Is Not Alone Cause of Theft ” MBRK desire to take a wild automobile rid" would not alone cause hoys of tender age to steal cars, in the opinion of Dr. E. A. Willis, professor of medical jurisprudence In the Indl ana Law School and an expert in criminology. Such a desire would soon be satisfied, he said, and is not enough to stimulate crime. Either robbery, gain or pleasure, he stated, would be the motive for the wholesale theft of automobiles, and of these Dr. Willis picks pleasure as the one most likely to impel a group of youths. In all probability !>oys do not organize deliberately for the purpose of stealing cars. Dr. Willis said, but when one takes an automobile and finds how easy it is to get away with it he tells his friends and the idea soon spreads. Desire to pick up girls and take them car riding also very probably might be a motive back of much of car stealing by boys. Dr. Wll 11s stated. The sex Impulse and clandestine meetings were blamed by the expert in psychology.

SPEED CRAZY Why do young boys steal automobiles? “The he-flappers of today are speed crazy. That is the only explanation,” John Mullin, inspector of detectives, said. “It is ordinary meanness,” is the opinion of Lieut. Michael Mines, in charge of the automobile squad. "They steal a car and get iway with it and they want to do it again. The more they steal the more they want to steal”

i fected of the three charged with manI slaughter was little Robert Risley, I 751 E. McCarty St. Bob. as the boys call him. cussed the fate that caused him to ride in a stolen car. He craved a cigarette and demanded to i know whether the county jail had a i softer bed. Dad Wouldn’t Help. “It's no use asking my father for help.” Bob said, “for he told me many times if I got in trouble and In jail I would have to stay. I know he meant it. too.” Then he said: "Will you call my mother and ask her to bring me down a couple of handkerchiefs.” A tear rolled down j his cheek.

Thirty-Seventh St., and Harry McQuinn, Rural Routo E. Box 149. Kamp and Johnson have been released on bond. The others are still in jail.

TWO CENTS

Cites Understanding Had "The understanding so had and now existing among the defendant manufacturers results in the control of the price at which ice is sold and the supression of competition amongst themselves and with others in the manufacture, sale and distribution of ice to the people of Indianapolis, and is unlawful,” the court held. The statement of facts included findings that the defendant companies divided the city into zones and did not encroach on each other’s territory, that the maximum prices allowed by Federal authorities were maintained by conjunction among the dealers. War Time Sacrifices Judge Eichhom remarked that “each of the companies seemed to be more prosperous and to have made more money after being called upon to make war sacrifices for their country.” “Many of them,’’ the court continued, “reduced their indebtedness, accumulated surplus and many of them paid dividends.” Petition Not Allowed William C. Miller, one of the attorneys for the defendants, attempted to file a supplementary petition to answer. which the court indicated he would overrule. Mr. Miller pointed to reductions in the price of ice. He remarked that “if it were not for the strike and this” coal business we might put another schedule in effect. Charles Thompson, special counsel assisting Attorney General Lesh in the prosecution, pointed to the use of the term “we” as evidence that a combine still existed, and also showed the court that the changes In price by the defendant companies had been uniform.
