ARRESTS BARE HUGE EXPRESS SWINDLE RING Detectives Nab Nine, Watch Eleven Others; Charge Package Thefts. By United Press BUFFALO, Jan. 20.—Robberies totaling several hundred thousand dollars from the Railway Express Agency, Inc., were revealed today as authorities attempted to smash the ring operating an alleged great swindle. Nine men are held in four cities, it was announced, while eleven others are being watched and may be arrested soon. The ring operated in New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio, police said. Most of the men under arrest were railroad or express company employes. Two men were held incommunicado in a Buffalo precinct station, police said, while federal authorities questioned them regarding the extent of the ring’s activities. Police gave their names as John J. Schreiber, Buffalo, and Clinton Hammond, Westfield, N. Y., Pennsylvania railroad employes. Three Held in Pittsburgh At Pittsburgh, believed the headquarters of the ring, three men were under arrest. Two of the men held there were Edward P. McPherson, express company messenger, and Regis U. Doyle, Pennsylvania baggage master. Identity of the third man was not disclosed. Names of four men held at Cleveland and Corry, Pa., were not known here, police said. Morris Newfleld, chief special agent of the Railway Express Agency, chiefly was responsible for the arrest of the men, it was revealed here. The loot consisted mostly of jewelry, silks, dresses, suits and other expensive merchandise. Value of the loot may reach $1,000,000, police intimated. Railway express company detectives worked more than two years on the case before discovering how heavily insured packages disappeared. Decoy packages were sent through the express company, trailed by detectives, but disappeared just as mysteriously. Finally Obtain Clew It was not until the arrest of Schreiber and Hammond here that authorities obtained a clew as to how the ring worked. Packages which apparently contained expensive articles were checked off by members of the ring, usually railroad or express company employes, and then re-addressed with previously prepared paper slips. The new slips completely covered the old addresses, and contained addresses of confederates. Knowledge of the ring’s activities came by chance to the Buffalo police, detectives revealed. Police were notified that a man—one of the two men held in Buffalo—had become rich suddenly and was spending large sums of money. A detective followed the man and learned that almost daily, large packages were delivered to him by railway express messengers. Express company officials investigated, culminating in the arrest of Schreiber and Hammond. DENIES PRESIDENT IN MILLIONAIRE CLASS Rep. Will Wood Thinks Hoover May Reduce Own Salary. Uy United Press WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.—President Hoover’s wealth, having been mentioned on floor of the house of representatives, was a subject of discussion here today. “I am informed the President is not worth a million,” said Representatives Wood (Rep., Ind.) in declaring his belief that Mr. Hoover would reduce his own salary, if the pay of federal employes were cut. The general impression was that Mr. Hoover was worth between $4,000,000 and $6,000,000 when he became secretary of commerce in 1921. It was believed this has been reduced, both by liquidation of profitable investments when he took office, and because of recent large charitable donations and philanthropic enterprises.

head by Witt as he ran into the store, testified again today. It was reported here that defense attorneys may file a motion for a directed verdict of acquittal this afternoon at the close of the state’s case. After a two-day battle, Ira Holmes and Elza O. Rogers, defense counsel, who contested the state’s right to bring Witt’s alleged confession before the jury, were supported Tuesday night by Judge John W. Hornaday. The court held that although Witt might not have been beaten or otherwise mistreated, detectives had no authority to force him to sign any statement which might have been used as evidence against the defendant. The defense case will be based entirely on the alibi that on the day of the murder, Witt was at the lola (Kan.) home of Louis E. Hamilton, alleged “trigger man” in the shooting, who will be tried later. The state has hammered at the Witt alibi with testimony of Milo Stockberger, Indianapolis rooming house operator. Stockberger, whose wife left him to marry Witt, said the defendant had admitted the shooting to him a few hours after it occurred. The rooming house operator also testified that he had seen Hamilton, bleeding at the head, sitting in an auto in front of Stockberger’s house while Witt hurriedly packed clothing and threatened Stockh-’-ger's life if he repeated the defendant’s statement that “we pulled that job.” Charged with murder during perpetration of a robbery, Wit* faces the “all or nothing” verdict under the Indiana law. The jury, finding Witt guilty, automatically would send him to the electric chair in the state prison. The only other verdict to be returned against the Bainbridge (Ind.) suspect is acquittal.

SHOVELS BARE RARE FINDS IN FORTRESS-CITY Mixtec Indian Tomb Yields Valuable Information on Ancient History. In this exclusive dispatch. Csso fires flrst authentic details es his discovery that promises to solve the mystery of an unknown prehistoric American race that bnrled its warrior* surrounded by sold, precious stones and carved human bones, rivaling In splendor the tombs of Egret. BY ALFONSO CASO Discoverer es Mont* Alban Prehistoric Tomb; Areheolorlst of National Museum of Mexico (Copyright, 1933, by Science Service) OAXACA CITY, Mexico, Jan. 20. —For days we had been excavating at Monte Alban, the ancient fort-ress-city, now a mountain of ruins, near this city in southern Mexico. At last our picks and shovels uncovered the entrance to the ancient Mixtec Indian tomb that was to prove so interesting and rich in treasure and archeological evidences. We entered the tomb through an ante-chamber, approached by a pair of steps. As we made our way within we found that there were two rooms, separated by a portal. The first of these rooms has a flat ceiling, but the second is a gabled vault with ceiling like an inverted 5. Find Carved Bones There we saw dead warriors, six of them, seated around the walls, jewel covered, and ornamented with gold and other precious things. The long years had dealt severely with them. We found that their skeletons had practically disintegrated during the many decades since they had been placed there. Near them were many extraordinary objects—gold, silver, copper, jade, turquoise, shell, pearl, coral and other materials. These precious articles were immediately removed under guard to the vaults of the Bank of Mexico for safekeeping. Human bones, beautifully carved, were found in the tomb, and promise to be of the greatest scientific interest. They are carved with a technique not surpassed by fine Chinese work on ivory. History Is Pictured The various engravings upon these portions of human skeletons picture happenings of history. They also have worked upon them details from the ritual calendars used by these ancient Indians. Thus the carved bones are veritable leaves of books, books of human bone used to record information important to this ancient race. A sacred mask that represents the Indian god, Xipetotec, is one of the ornaments of gold. Xipetotec was the god of the flayed, in whose honor a woman was beheaded, and the skin of her body worn as a dress by a ritual dancer. Diadem Is Found A diadem of gold, breast ornaments of gold, bracelets and necklaces, all of gold and beautifully worked, were among the treasures of the tomb. An unusual bowl of rock crystal and several beautiful alabaster vessels were in the mass of treasure. Many pearls also were found, some of unusual size. A human skull, richly encrusted with turquoise and shell, was probably some ancient warrior’s trophy. When it was found it had a flint knife resting in the hollow of the nose. Those who explored this ancient tomb with me were Martin Brazan, second leader of the expedition; Juan Valencuela, and my wife. Washer Motor Stolen By Times Special HAMMOND.

ANTI-HYSTERIA ORDER ISSUED TO SAVE TOWN Mayor Closes Business to Restore Confidence of Urbana Citizens. Reginald C. Harmon, dynamic St-year-old mayor of Urbana. 111., baa declared a Are-day holiday In bis elly to permit the citixen* to recorer from hysteria brought on by bank closings. His action is unprecedented and novel among the many that hare been advanced during the present crises. Mayor Harmon give* his reasons in Hie following article, written especially at the request of the United Press. BY REGINALD C- HARMON Mayor of Urbana (Copyright, 1932, by United Press) URBANa, 111., Jan. 20.—Our community was caught unexpectedly in the worst calamity ever felt here. Sinister influences and malicious rumors had undermined the firm foundations of some Champaign and Urbana banks. When the First National bank. Champaign, and the Commercial State bank, Champaign, failed to open for business, not because of insolvency, but because of lack of cash caused by quiet runs extending over weeks, part of the local citizenry momentarily became alarmed. Runs were started on the remaining twin city banks, which, I believe, if allowed to continue would have brought greater grief and a greater catastrophe to our community. Faith in our fellowmen and in the future must not be shaken. Closed Business Although realizing that to close all business firms here would cost the community more than $75,009 daily, I believed that in the final reckoning two banks will continue to serve Urbana, and faith and confidence would be preserved by closing all business houses. Not until after considering the good of all citizens did I decide to invoke the police powers of the mayor to close business firms, including the banks. Only those firms which dispense food supplies, drugs, transportation businesses, public utility agencies and newspapers now are functioning. For the rest of this week business in Urbana will be at a standstill, while our leading citizens are restoring confidence. I have firm belief and faith in Urbana citizens, as they had in me for two terms, and evidences already show that the hysteria which gripped some, has subsided and turned into confidence. People More Confident Already more than 1,500 persons have pledged their entire deposits to the Busey State bank and the First National bank, Urbana, until some later date when normal deposits and normal withdrawals will be resumed. The Association of Commerce, the Rotary Club, the lawyer, the doctor, the merchant, the laborer, have all expressed themselves as confident for the future. While I have the power to use force to close any business as an emergency measure to preserve peace and order, I have not had to do so. nor do I expect such procedure will be necessary as the proclaiming order seems to be sufficient. Merchants and professional men have united to help Urbana through this crisis. I feel they practically have done so, and at such time as I deem necessary the proclamation closing business firms will be revoked. Girls Allege Attack By Times Special - GREENCASTLE, Ind., Jan. 20.
