FUGITIVE BANDIT AND GIRL-WIFE CAPTURED HERE Man Wanted in Two States Run Down by Police Squad Here. Without an attempt to use the two guns with which he was armed, Hunter B. Watson, 31, fugitive bank robber, surrendered Friday night to police and today is awaiting removal to the south, being wanted in two states as a bandit and prison breaker. Watson's 17-year-old wife, Loletta, a curly haired blond, also is in custody. Arrest was made shortly before 8 Friday night at Twenty-first and Harding streets by Lieutenant Dan Cummings and patrolmen Walter Baase and Edwarh Quinnette, whose automobile forced that of the bandit to the curb. With a sawed off shotgun and two revolvers pointed at him, Watson raised his hands without a word. In his belt he carried a .38-caliber revolver; in a pocket he had a .25caliber automatic pistol. Both weapons were loaded. Details Criminal Record The girl wife sobbed as the arrest was made. The only participant in the drama at the curb remaining calm, was Teddy Bear, the chow dog of the girl. Today Watson detailed his criminal record in a statement to police. It includes conviction fox' auto theft, bank robberies and three jail escapes. Specific charge on which Watson was arrested here alleges robbery of a bank at Olla, La. The arrest ended two days of intensive work by Indianapolis officers, who were asked to seek Watson by Louisiana officials, who had been informed * that Mrs. Watson *had gone to Indianapolis from Baton Rouge, La., to join her husband at an apartment on North Illinois street. Close in on Apartment Early Friday, several police squads closed in on the apartment, but the Watsons had moved. However, papers were found indicating anew car had been bought. Later in the day it was seen in the 2000 block Koehne street, but was driven away before police arrived. It was learned after the capture that the couple had occupied a furnished house at 2026 Koehne street. License number of the car, bought in the name of Mrs. J. J. Thomas, the name without the prefix having been one of Watson's aliases, were broadcast by the police radio for a time, but this was stopped when it was learned Watson had equipped his car with a radio set. Telephones then were brought into play. Harry Smith, motoroycle policeman, was ordered from his mount to his home near the Koehne street address when he kept vigil with opera glasses. Three times he sighted Watson’s car. Most of Loot Gone Cruising on Twenty-first street, Cummings and his squad saw the car and a few minutes later Watson was a prisoner. The bandit, said to have had $5,000 in bank robbery loot when he came here, had 150 when arrested, and his wife, slll. Besides purchase of the car, Watson bought the radio set, a large stock of clothing and paid for tonsil operations for himself and wife at the Methodist hospital. He paid several hundred dollars for dental work for himself. Watson decline to sign extradition waivers to either Texas or Louisiana. “I’ll fight,” he announced. Watson, held on a fugitive warrant, will be given a hearing Sept. 20 before Municipal Judge William H. Sheaffer. His wife, charged with vagrancy, will be given a hearing Monday in the same court. POSTAL RECEIPTS KEPT SECRET MAIL CHIEFS Comment in Washington Aroused by Withholding of Information. By Seripps-Howard Xewspapcr Alliance WASHINGTON. Sept. 10.—Failure of the postoflice department to make public the postal receipts for July and August has aroused comment here. The monthly compilation of postal receipts is regarded as a business barometer, and suspension of publication is unusual. Inquiry of Third Assistant Postmaster Tilton today elicited the information that on orders of Postmaster Brown, the statistics will be withheld indefinitely. Publication is discretionary with the post-master-general. “The operation of the new rates can not be determined by the results of one or two months,” said Tilton. “It will not be until Christmas that a comprehensive idea can be obtained as to their efleot upon revenues.” The new rates went Into effect July 6 and the statistics for two months under the increased schedules therefore are available now for comparison by the department with postal revenues under the previous rates.

TRAGEDY MARKS JEAN’S PATH

First Marriage Goes on Rocks , Suicide Ends Second

This is the last of four stories on the life of Jean Harlow, the famous platinum blond of the movies, whose second husband, Paul Bern, recently committed suicide. , BY- DAN THOMAS NF.A Servire Hollywood Correspondent Hollywood, sept. io.— when screenland's foremost blond, Jean Harlow, 21, became the bridb of Paul Bern, 41, the movie citadel's most eligible bachelor, Hollywood gasped. It was not that the cinema world was surprised that its platinum pride should wed again, or even that she should select for her second partner a man twice her age who, besides being an executive of the company which had just signed her to a starring contract, was one of the wealthiest, most influential, and perhaps the best loved men in the picture making industry. What caused the residents of the celluloid capital to breathe excitedly was that the silver-tressed ex-wife of Charles F. McGrew 11, the mil lionaire Chicago sportsman, should be conducted on both her wedding marches by men who, broadly speaking, “could give her everything.” So, no one was much surprised when the word got around that Paul Bern's wedding present to his 21-year-old bride was a deed to the $60,000 home in Benedict Canyon, Beverly Hills, where he had lived as a bachelor. a a a THEIR marriage on July *2 climaxed a friendship begun almost three years ago, shortly after the premiere of "Hell's- Angels," Miss Harlow’s first starring vehicle, and her separation from her first husband. The meeting occurred at a party given by another studio executive, David Selznick. It was a case of friendship at sight. They began going places together, not as sweethearts, but as congenial companions, almost platonic friends. Though Paul Bern often was seen in the company of the blond star from Kansas City, the school celebrity just out of Ferry hall, none of his friends thought much about it. For years "Little Paul” had been the devoted escort of a score of screen “first ladies.” Moreover, he long had been recognized as "the understanding friend” of the misunderstood women and men of Hollywood. Joan Crawford, during- the first heartbreaking days following the smash-up of her romance with Michael Cudahy, Estelle Taylor, after Jack Dempsey left her. Barbara La Marr; when ill health had begun to extinguish the flame of her genius; Mabel Normand, Jetta Goudal, Rudolph Valentino, Ramon Novarro and John Gilbert —all had known the full meaning of his friendship. And at that time Jean, the victim of a whispering campaign aimed to establish her as a vamp and home-wrecker off as well as

ARREST ENDS 4-YEAR HUNT Joe Hunter, Indicted in ‘Hot’ Car Case, Is Caught. Arrest in California, Friday, ended a four-year hunt for Joseph G. (Kentucky Joe) Hunter, who was indicted here in 1928 by the federal grand jury in connection with the •‘hot car” case, which resulted in the .serving of a prison term by Eddie Traugott, Indianapolis merchant. Hunter, an alleged bootlegger, was charged with being implicated in the sale and purchase of "hot cars,” which resulted in indictment of twentylsix persons, among them several Klan officials, on a conspiracy charge. Hunter has been a fugitive since indictment. LEGION POSTS PIMOFFICERS C. V. Cross and R. B. Moore Named Commanders.

Paul Bern, the melancholy movie director whose helping hand lifted many stars out of their troubles.

on the screen, was in dire need of a friend. n n A YEAR and a half ago, about the time she was securing her divorce, a disagreement temporarily halted her friendship with filmland’s mos£ eligible bachelor. Then she went on a vaudeville tour of the country. When she returned to Hollywood it was noted that she once more occupied the seat of honor at the elaborate dinner parties given by Bern at his Benedict Canyon home. Early last winter Jean departed on another show-herself expedition. Before she left, however, she is reported to have confided to a few close friends that Paul had mentioned matrimony to her. She returned from the trip to make “Red-Headed Woman.” Hardly had she gotten back, though, when Bern left on a holiday, his first in several years.

Public Works for Relief Are Ordered by Hoover

Program Provided in Aid Act Will Be Started at Once. By Scripps-Howarrl Newspaper Alliance WASHINGTON, Sept. 10.—The long controversy as to whether the federal government should construct public works as part of its emergency relief program was ended today, with announcement by President Herbert Hoover that the building program provided in the relief act will be undertaken at once. This means that an additional $120,000,000 for road building, some $200,000,000 will be spent for construction of public buildings, army housing, river and harbor work, flood control, construction of Boulder dam, air navigation facilities, construction of lighthouse tenders, engineering work of the coast and geodetic survey and construction work of the navy department's bureau of yards and docks. Half of the $200,000,000 will be spent for public buildings. Most of the departments, which will direct these expenditures, expect to announce specific plans for building in different communities by Monday. Some delay in preparation of project lists has been caused by Comp-troller-General J. R. McCarl’s ruling that 10 per cent must be deducted from all relief construction under the economy act. Immediate construction of these public works was optional w-ith the Pxesident and treasury secretary. The act provides that the work should not be undertaken if amounts necessary were not available and could not be obtained upon reasonable terms. Hoover announced that funds are available, and that department heads have been directed to proceed with the work. 20 Beacons Bought WASHINGTON, Sept. 10.—Department of commerce has taken delivery of 20 of the world's largest airway beacons.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES .

IT was shortly after his return last June that they appeared together at the marriage license bureau and filed notice of their intention to wed. Meanwhile, “Red-Headed Woman” had been finished and was packing the neighborhood houses. It firmly established the platinum-thatched Jean as a celluloid star. That success is attributed by somq of her friends for her sudden decision to remarry. “Paul has asked me before to marry him,” she told one of her friends a few days before their marriage. “But I never accepted until the other night. I wanted to make good first.” They were married July 2 in the Beverly Hills home built for Jean by her first husband and now occupied by her mother and stepfather. One of screenland’s leading col-

Reading Down—Joan Crawford, Estelle Taylor, the late Barbara La Marr. They knew Bern's friendship. umnists, commenting on the wedding, wrote that it was a tragic commentary on the gratitude of the film colony to know that only 150 of the 500 persons invited to the nuptial festivities of Hollywood’s “good Samaritan” managed to get there. Those who attended the quiet ceremony, however, were quoted afterward as saying they “had witnessed the culmination of a perfect Hollywood romance.” Yet that romance already has witnessed its own culmination. The kindly little man who renounced his title of “Hollywood’s most beloved bachelor” to become the husband of the screen’s blondest charmer ended it with his own hand the other day in a small dressing room off the honeymoon chamber.

Declaring he would make a personal investigation today of an alleged gambling and drinking resort at 6400 North Harding street, Municipal Judge William H. Sheaffer branded two deputy sheriffs who raided the place early Thursday as “dumb bells not fit to be deputy sheriffs.” Cases of four men arrested in the raid in which officers said they seized liquor and gambling devices were called today in Sheaffer's court, but not one of the twentythree men and women said to have been found in the place by Elmer R. Dailey and Gilbert H. Thomas, deputy sheriffs, appeared. Hearing was continued until Sept. 17. “I am sick and tired of police and deputy sheriffs making arrests and bringing their cases into this court with nothing to make a case,” declared Sheaffer. He then vented his ire upon Dailey and Thomas, who were before the bench. Recalling a statement Friday by Russell Dean, deputy prosecutor, that the twenty-three persons the officers mentioned gave fictitious names and addresses, Sheaffer said: “Somebody out to be able to remember and recognize at least some of them.” The four awaiting trial are John Earls, 121 East Twenty-third street, alleged proprietor, charged with blind tiger; Henry Lewis, 36, Hotel Edward; Henry Walters, 52, of 2851 Southeastern avenue, and Charles Burke, 38, Richelieu apartments, all charged with operating a gambling house.
