Rex Beach "Money Mad" Is the title of Rex Beach’s new novel, which will be published by Cosmopolitan Book Corporation next Friday. By WALTER D. HICKMAN SOMETIMES a piece of real literature concerning life is written by a high school student. One is to be found in the 1931 Shortridge Annual.Leon Frisch was born in Zaleszcyki in southeastern Europe, “where Poland, Russia, and Rumania meet,” and "this peaceful looking town is enclosed on all sides by mountains, and on three sides by the beautiful, meandering Dniester river.” Frisch tells of his ten years spent in his native town before coming to America, in “Borderland Sketches.” Frisch has caught the spirit of the people of his former home and he has painted a living picture of the bandit who stole horses; of a prize fighter, who returned from America and got knocked out by Ivan, a stoker in a bakery, and of Russians sacking the town. The entire annual is a credit to the class. a u a ACCORDING to Brentano’s they are reading the following fiction in New York: "Father,” by Elizabeth (Doubleday-Doran;) "The Road Back,” by Erich Remarque (Little Brown;) “The Good Earth,” by Pearl S. Buck (John Day;) “Call Her Savage,” by Tiffany Thayer (Claude Kendall;) "Years of Grace,” by Margaret Ayer Barnes (Hough-ton-Mifllin), and “The Square Circle,” by Denis Mackail (HoughtonMifflin.) a u a IF you want to get the low’-down on our war with Spain, read “The Martial Spirit,” by Walter Millis (Houghton Mifflin Company). It throw* a lot of clear light upon Roosevelt, McKinley and the way the atrocity stories were worked up.

RAibERS~POUNCE IN BLOOMINGTON Federal Agents Launch War on Speakeasies. By Timet Special BLOOMINGTON, Ind., June 12. —Speakeasy operators and owners of stills in Monroe county today were in a state of near-panic as Charles A. Britt, deputy prohibition administrator, and* sixteen federal dry agents, continued their raids over the city and county. It is understood that nineteen places are on the raiders’ lists and handlers of bootleg liquor are making frantic efforts to be rid of their stock. The United States’ prohibition officers’ visit to Bloomington came as a complete surprise to local authorities. Two federal agents, serving as undercover men, have been in Bloomington for several weeks making preparations for the raids. It is said that the two detectives made “buys” of liquor at all the places which are to be raided. This is the first federal raid which ever has been staged in Monroe county and it is believed launched by the desire of Prosecutor Vern Ruble to clean up and control the local crime situation. No raids have been made in downtown Bloomington and none will be made around Indiana university, according to present information. Building Code Is Studied Indianapolis’ present building code and the new code for Detroit were discussed and compared by the building code committee of the Indianapolis Real Estate Board in conference with William F.

JUST A NIGHTMARE
Dream of Crime Empire Ended
By United Press GARY, Ind., June 12.—Ferdinand K. Daum, 54-year-old bookkeeper, whose dreams of a life of crime were so vivid that he believed himself on the threshold of becoming a second Scarface A1 Capone, was under arrest today in connection with a kidnaping plot against two wealthy men. With him in jail were James Clayton, 28, and Ted Hartman. 30, whom Daum enlisted in schemes ranging from extortion through armed robbery and stock market demoralization to counterfeiting. None of the projects progressed much beyond the stage of fantasy.
Daum explained his possession of Various weapons as being due to the fact that he “thought—perhaps I only imagined it—tnat some day I would take up a life of crime.” it tt u COUNTERFEITING, he said, was his big ambition. As he explained it, his story went as follows; Daum was tired of sitting on a stool and writing figures in books. He planned to embark in crime to free himself from the monotony of his work. Asa bookkeeper, he had the respect of his employers, the Tittle Packing Company. Asa prospective raffles, he bungled. The middle-aged clerk took Hartman and Clayton into his confidence on his plans. He intended to flood brokers wich forged stock share certificates. He visioned himself directing a gang making cunning counterfeits of United States money. He saw his hirelings seizing rich business men for ransom. Daum went as far as to send Clayton to consult a Chicago engraver and obtain samples of his work. He instructed Hartman to go to Joseph Tittle, president of the • Tittle Sons Packing Conipany, and j demand payment of $4,000 extortion | money. He told the two sharers of his dreams to get ready to abduct L. J. Kelly, wealthy packer. tt tt u CLAYTON has ambitions of his own. Fearing Daum would fail anyhow, he went to Kelly with an offer to expose three men plotting to kidnap him. He declared himself a disinterested party, and to make his story better, divulged hints of a mammoth counterfeiting scheme. Captain Thomas J. Callaghan of the United States secret service was enlisted by Gary police at this point Daum’s room at the Washington hotel was raided and yielded masks, a pistol, a blackface and fake stock certificates. Daum, Clayton and Hartman were arrested. * Because Daum only dreamed, and didn’t act, he and his friends may be freed. Callaghan decided that government couldn’t prosecute Daum for “thinking” about counterfeiting, Gary police booked the trio on charges of conspiracy to commit a felony, but were uncertain about pressing the case.
