jDEER HUNTERS READY TO WAR ON GANGSTERS Maine ‘Dead Eyes' Reach Gotham; Out to Get Child Killers. BY JOHN M. COOPER United Pres* Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Sept. I.—A twoman anti-crime army sauntered off the Bar Harbor express today, looked around for gangsters to kill or police to help, and finding neither wondered if New York wanted its crime wave abated. Fred Belmore York, a dead eye at seventy rods, and Allie Whitney Deming, who can shoot deer ‘‘as fur as I can hee,” recalled that the hunting season in their Maine woods didn’t open until Nov. 1, so they came down to New York where they heard there was an open season on shooting gangsters. They wrote Police Commissioner Mulrooney they would be here, their deer guns all greased for action, they said. Apparently they expected the commissioner and some cohorts or a gangster barrage as they stepped from the train. They were fooled. Only newspaper men with flashlights and snapping cameras welcomed the two deer hunters as they arrived from Oakland, Me. They came in surrounded by school children—a returning camping grdup—unlimbered their trusty guns, posed for pictures, and Allie talked. Fred stood back and nodded assent. “We got purty good and sore when we heard about those kids getting killed down here,” Allie said. He is the father of five children. Fred has two. They were motivated, they said, by reports that police were afraid to shoot into a crowd,

through fear of killing an innocent bystander. ‘‘l can kill a deer as fur as I can see,’ said Allie, while Fred figured he could ‘‘kill a deer at seventy rods.” ‘‘Did you ever shoot a man,” Deming was asked. “Nope, but I could.” “Do you have any prejudices against shooting a man?” “Nope.” “Did you ever shoot out of a moving automobile?” Deming was asked, the reporter explaining that hunting season on gangsters here consisted of whizzing through the streets at high speed, taking a pot shot whenever a gunman’s left ear appeared from the tonneau of another moving car. “Why, sure,” he replied. “The common thing up our way is to shoot deer while speeding at forty miles an hour.”

“What do you think of gangsters?” “I don't think much of them,” he replied tersely. “How about the gangster problem in Maine?” “There ain’t no gangsters,” he responded. There was a report the two might be arrested for carrying weapons. They carried two dandy rifles and posed in the Grand Central station aiming at everything from the information kiosk to the progress of the railroad, a stirring exhibit on the Mezzanine floor. But no police arrived either to arrest or greet them. The two guides were bronzed. They wore rough knickers, moccasin like shoes, open khaki shirts and carried packs on their backs. “Why the packs?” Deming was asked. “Oh that’s ammunition—and our good suits.”

WARNING GIVEN ON WAR DEBTS Blight Is Put on Business, Says N. Y. Bank. By United Preen NEW YORK, Sept. I.—Recovery from the world-wide business depression is blocked by failure to dispose of the war debts and reparations problem, the National City bank warned today. It declared disjtosition of that problem was the chief action needed to restore the confidence that would result in an upward swing in world business. Further, it warned, if the war debt and reparations problem is not disposed of before the end of the Hoover war debt holiday, the worldwide depression will be more severe at the end of that holiday than it was when the holiday began.
