HUNT KIDNAP FARM: BELIEVE 10 BOYS HELD Lad, Victim of Mafia Gang, Fails to Find Spot From Air. By United Press CHICAGO, Sept. 28.—Search for farm house in which Billy Ranieri, 10, son of a wealthy contractor was held captive for thirteen days has been intensified with announcement by authorities that at least ten other children, kidnaped by Mafia terrorists were believed held captive there. A 200-mile airplane cruise with Billy as a passenger was made over the metropolitan area of Chicago, but he was unable to identify the house where for nearly two weeks he was held captive while extortion letters demanding $60,000 were written his father. Authorities continued to question Angelo Di Meleo, an ex-convict, who said he had been offered a part in the Ranieri kidnaping plot. He said he saw the boy in an automobile with his captors at Joliet. It was through him, authorities said, they learned ten other children were in captivity. Di Meleo is serving a jail sentence at Joliet on a disorderly conduct charge. Billy, in statements to authorities iafter he had been dumped from an automobile south of Chicago, said there were ten more children at the place he was held as their parents “were on vacations.” VISIONS GREECE AS HUB i OF ‘WAR PROOF’ WHEEL I ' Premier Venizelos Makes Whirlwind ' Peace Tour of Europe.

In an interview, Venizelos said his sole mission is peace, and he denied that the treaty with Italy that he signed in Rome this week was designed to upset the Mediterranean balance.

Heir to Throne Weds Commoner

Il ■■ i lii

Princess Setsuka Matsudaira

By United Prbss TOKIO, Sept. 28. Yasuhito, Chichibu-No-Miyra, heir presumptive to the throne of Japan, and Setsuka Matsudaira, daughter of the Japanese ambassador to Great Britain, were married today at Chiyoda castle. The simple rites that united the prince and the little commoner who was adopted into Royalty, culminated a fiction-like romance. The couple were united under the Shinto rites after they had

appealed to the spirits of the imperial ancestors. The army salute of/ljwentyone guns heralded anew princess of Nippon as Setsuka was registered as Princess Chichibu. The dowager empress of Japan will receive the royal

Prince Yasuhito

couple this afternoon. Tonight they will witness a colorful lantern parade of 50,000 reserve troops. As the wedding ceremony started Prince Chichibu, wearing robes designed from those his ancestors wore mere than a thousand years ago, went to the shrine of the sun goddess atop a hill near the imperial palace to ask her blessing on the .marriage. The robes for this ceremony were of black silk decorated with the image of a flying crane and a white cloud. The prince and his bride then exchanged cups of sacred wine, or “sake,” made of rice. The union was proclaimed after the prayers to the spirits of the imperial ancestors. # tt THE costume Setsuka wore was a five-fold obi, designed, go the legends say, hundreds of years ago. She carried in her hand an enormous fan of luminous lacquer, an heirloom of the imperial family. In spite of the ancient rites which united them, the royal bride and groom are modern in almost

every respect. The prince studied at Oxford until the death of his father in .1926 and Miss Matsudaira was educated in the United States while her father, Tsuneo Matsudaira, was ambassador to Washington. Miss Matsudaira, a commoner by birth, was barred from marriage with royalty when the romance began, but her uncle, a baron, adopted her into his family and the barrier was lifted. She returned to her home here this summer to prepare for the nuptials with the prince who may some day inherit the throne. The actual ceremony began last Wednesday when the ancestors were notified of the coming nuptials. Friday was selected for the final rites as it is a day of “great luck” in the ancient Chinese lunar calendar. Before the rites this morning thousands of native subjects of the royal pair cheered them from the streets. LEGION HEADS ENTRAIN Officers Leave Today for Parley In San Antonio, Texas.

PHILLY POLICE TOOK ‘TRIBUTE,’ QUIZ REVEALS Bribes Received From Vice and Rum Interests, Evidence Shows. By United Press PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 28.—A charge that disorderly houses were paying tribute to the police force in return for protection, has been borne out by evidence submitted in the probe of corruption here. Twelve women have testified that they gave money to police for immunity from raids. Thirty-four policemen are under arrest, accused of taking from $5 to $75 each from bootleggers each week. The evidence against them was, found in a “little black book,” which provided an itemized account of the payments to the police force. Probers are seeking to run down a complete elist of payments which, they charge, the $10,000,000 liquor ; ring has been making to'pohcement, j possibly over a period of years. The grand jury will not hold another session until Monday. At that time it will ask Joohn Stuckert, police inspector, to explain how he saved $36,000 in two years on a salary of $2,700 a ayear. Stuckert is head of the police training school and formerly was a district captain. ROBBED: DISAPPEARS Victim of Holdup Fails to Come Home; Suspect Arrested.
