DILLINGER HUNT COST $500,000, OFFICIALS SAY Millions More Expended in Improving Enforcement Machinery. BY DANIEL M. KIDNEY Tinrs SUB Writer WASHINGTON, July 26.—Cm<?s, states and the federal government spent $500,000 in pursuit of John Diilinger. it was estimated here today. Indirect expenditures, public and j private, were estimated in the millions. Because of the desperados career, congress added $1,500,000 to the budget of the investigation division of the justice department and passed a whole series of “crime bills ’ increasing federal powers. The number of field agents was almost doubled. latate and city police forces added nirn and equipment costing thousands of dollars. jßanks Installed the latest type dglenae mechanism, adding many tflousands more. tlhe entire police policy of the i is modified because of the ci|ree r of the Mooresviile youth who ' ttp-ned against society. Yet that cireer was spent for the most part m flight, hiding and perpetual fear. It ended ignominiously by death in avxity alley. how much the federal govelbment spent, before its agents shot to death m Chicago last atmday night, can not be stated accurately, according to J. Edgai Hoover, investigation bureau chief far the justice department. Airplanes and high power automobiles were used in the various pßrsuits, making each chase extremely costly. No separate account was carried for the Dillmger case, so definite figures can not be obtained. But *IOO,OOO to $150,000 represents the consensus regarding federal costs. And the federal government didn't enter the case until after Dillmger had wooden-pistoled his way out * of the Crown Point jail and was ; charged with crossing state lines in a stolen car. This interstate sea- i ture was necesssary for federal participation. All that is changed by the new crime laws and any Dilling*r imitators can count on the •*4rds'* being on their trail. .Lake the Canadian mounted police, j the “feds" also have a tradition of gatting their man. -Ten states were actively after Htllinger before the federal participation. All were spending money finely. Chicago had a special, heavilyarmed Dillmger squad. The justice agents’ budget was

Dillmger's body was viewed, for the most part, only by relatives and simple folk of his hometown. Many who strove to remember Johnny as the roustabout youngster who had played pranks and stolen apples with their own boys in Moorsville were among the mourners. Mary Kinder and her sister, Mrs. Margaret Behrens, and two garishly dressed “show-girls" from Chicago were the only representatives of the life which Dillinger had chosen in

preference to the simple existence of his own people. Miss Kinder said she was’at the funeral because she “really had an affection for Johnny.” “He was a grand guy,” she told The Times. He always was swell to me and he sure was loyal to Harry Pierpont and the rest of the boys.” She sobbed as she dictated her exclusive story to this newspaper. While the funeral service was read in the Hancock home, a Times airplane droned low overhead with a photographer. Hundreds of people who could not get into the home braved a burning sun for many hours during the wake. The tiny lawn ia front of the Hancock house was jammed w’ith relatives, friends and policemen. Photographers and reporters attending the funeral on assignment were subjected to the abuse of a corps of self-appointed “guards” around the house. These village bullies, swelled up with unaccustomed importance, attempted to break cameras and chase reporters. Suddenly, in midaftemoon. one of the “guards” stopped the line of mourners and curiosity seekers. Relatives and a few carefully chosen friends jammed into the living room. The Rev. Charles M. Filmore, retired Disciples of Christ preacher, raised a hand for silence. Sonor-

She was carried into the kitchen amid a slight pause which gave someone time to open the front door and admit some air. The Rev. William J.

During a momentary lull In the sudden storm at the cemetery, the minister and a few of the chief mourners managed to rush across the grass and gain the shelter of a brown canvas tent over the grave. Undertaker's assistants' finally managed to get the coffin over to the rain-soaked grave. Tears streamed down Mr. Dillinger's seamed face. Mrs. Hancock cried loudly and Mary Kinder daubed at her eyes.
