Two Escape in Second Car Of Confederates After ~ Abandoning First.

CASHIER ALONE AT TIME|

. Forced to Lie on Floor While Till Is Opened; Circle Hat Shop Held Up.

1 » MACKEY, Ind., Jan. 26 (U. P).—

The State Bank in this small Gibson County town today was robbed of cash and negotiable securities totalling approximately $11,000 by two armed thugs aided by a pair of confederates who used two agen. biles to escape.

A complete check by bank officials shortly, before noon revealed that

the bandits made off with $453 in|:

cash and $10,818 in bonds, all but one of which, worth $500, were ne- - gotiable. The crime was Indiana’s first bank robbery of 1939 and evidently was committed by a well-organized gang which had perfected plans for the, theft and the getaway. ] Two of the thieves, one tall and the other short, entered the Mackey State Bank shortly after 10 o’clock this morning with drawn pistols. Victor Lemme, 65, the cashier, was alone in the small building at the time, . Turn Guns on Cashier

As they covered Mr. Lemme with their weapons and ordered him to lie on: the floor, one of the men pped ‘the bank’s telephone wires. | Then while they covered ' Mr. | Lemme as he lay prone on the floor, the bandits scooped all the money | from the till, seized the bonds from the vault and rushed outside, where they leaped into a new 1939 Buick driven by a_ third confederate. Several boys in a nearby filling station noticed the'hew car and its hasty flight and were able to supplement Mr. Lemme’s description. he machine drove south to the intersection of Routes 57 and 68 where it skidded to a halt at the side of the read. The three men — climbed out, changed the license plates to ‘a Chevrolet ‘which was following them closely -g@nd drove rapidly ‘away.

Farmer Watches

They were observed by Jack Ebrecht, a farmer who lives on a hill about 100 yards from the infersection. Mr. Ebrecht at first believed the ¢éar was wrecked and so reported to officers. The abandond car later -was . found to have been stolen in Evans-

ville last night from Dr. C. E. Gil-|

latt of Allendale, Ill : Mr. Lemme sounded an alarm as soon as the bandits had fled the bank and State Police at Evansville were notified. They hastily organized blockades of all roads in the Indiana “pocket” area, but early this afternoon no trace of the car in which the thieves escaped had ‘been found.

‘Astor Millinery Shop On Circle Robbed

A tall, dark complexioned bandit who kept one hand in a coat pocket, held up a clerk in the Astor Millinery Shop, 56 Monument Circle, today, and escaped with the contents of the cash register, estimated variously at from $30 to $60. The clerk, Miss Mae Ladin, 25, of 2444 N. Delaware St., said she was - alone in the shop when the bandit entered. “Don’t look in the lobby (of the Test Building next door) or Till shoot; just pretend you're seiling hats,” she quoted him as saying. ‘Another clerk, Miss Orpha Kiefer, 319 N. Euclid Ave., whe was not in the store at’ the time of the holdup, said that after she turned out the lights at closing time last night, a man attempted to open the door.

Circuit Court of Ap'peals in a 2 to 1 decision ruled today that Mayor Frank Hague was prohibiting “peaceful assembly upon terms repugnant to free speech” in Jersey City and upheld with. a strengthening modification an injunction restraining him and his - Administration from banning pub--lic addresses, “parades and assemblies. Mayor Hague had asked the court . to vacate the injunction.

The actual capture of the city of almost two million population—former Loyalist capital which Gen. Franco will make his own—was completed almost without the firing of a shot after Rebel troops had smashed through the last line of defenders and cut communications leading northward. Cheering crowds swarmed out on the streets to greet the Navarrese, the Italian legions and the Moroccans of Rebel Spain as they followed tanks and armored cars into the heart of the city, where bread was distributed to the population. The Rebel bands played martial tunes.” Red and gold Rebel flags waved beside white sheets which the residents of Barcelona ' displayed before the incoming troops. The Loyalist Army, northward toward Gerona and Figueras, was pursued by Rebel columns which had circled the city. It was uncertain how long resistance of the new republican lines could be continued.

LEAVES GIVEN 34 BY BARNHART

State Excise Division Head Seeks to Stay Within Year’s Budget.

Hugh A. Barnhart, State Excise division head, announced today he has granted indefinite leaves of absence to 34 members of his department “in order to Stay ! within this year’s budget.” Those involved are 24 excise policemen, six good-will squad members, the publicity deputy, one field auditor, and two clerks. Two police officers were reduced in the ranks. In announcing the changes, Mr. Barnhart said in part: “Naturally such a drastic reduction will require a reorganization of

the remainder of the excise force. Furthermore, it will place practically the entire responsibility for enforcement of the alcoholic beverages act on local law enforcement agencies. “The law contemplated joint enforcement by local authorities and the state but there has always been a noticeable trend on the part of some local authorities to consider that the whole responsibility belonged to the state. It might be well to recall in this instance that last fiscal year the state returred a total of $1,406,578.53 to city, town and county treasuries out of the revenue derived from'the alcoholic beverage industry. “This money, by law, goes into the local treasuries to be spent as are other funds. It is presumed, of course, that a certain amount of this money goes for law enforcement and that is as it should be. Such being the case, I hope that local authorities will enforce the alcoholic law with the same spirit

they have shown in the enforcement of other laws. |

Charges of “steam rollering” were hurled at the Republican House maJority as the Democratic members of the Elections Committee “claimed |

five G.O,P. election reform measures, ‘Another 'split- in the House rants

also developed today with the State Wage and Hour Bill appearing as a wedge ‘separating the usually solid farmer-labor front. Farm opposition to this measure reportedly has been increasing in the lower chamber. In the Senate, the Public Safety Committee reported favorably on a bill to prohibit sale of fireworks to persons -under 21 and require the licensing of manufacturers and dealers. . Meanwhile, retail merchants continued their campaign for gross income tax changes, while organized farmers prepared.to oppose tampering with the present tax system. The Senate also received three measures to make Indiana’s criminal code. conform in several respects with those of other states.

Controversy Develops

The fight over the G. O. P. election measures developed on the action of the Republican majority of the Elections Committee in preparing in advance majority and minority reports on five G. O. P. election measures. When the majority returned its report to the House the Democrats refused to make a report and notified the House that the “Democrats had been deprived of the right to read -and consider : the election bills.” Rep. Winfield K. Denton (D. Evansville) declared: “Let me say a word about steam rollers and rubber stamps. In our heyday when we had an overwhelming majority in the House I never heard of a case when the minority was deprived of the right of reading a bill. #On only one issue have you Republicans had an independent vote in this session. And this is ffom the party that attacked the Democrats for voting for administration measures and calling them rubber stamps. In answer, Rep. C. Y. Foster (R. Carmel), committee chairman, said

Eyewitness Says; Few Buildings Remain.

By CHARLES SERRY (Copyright, 1939, by United Press) CHILLAN, Chile, Jan, 26.—A wild-eyed man, his facial muscles twitching, ran through this earth= quake-wrecked city and dashing up shouted in my face: “1 lost four chilaren!” His voice rose to a piercing scream: “But I'm alive. . , . I'm alive.” Streets were filled with debris. Buildings were ruined. The roofs of the two theaters had collapsed and the walls had fallen in on top of them. Both were filled with men, women and children Tuesday night when the quake rocked the earth. I was informed that there were 200 dead persons buried in the ruins of each one. A man was poking distractedly in a heap of ruins, now and then pulling out a board. He was asked what he. was doing. % pointed to a partly finished xX, crudely con-

Girl Killed In Flight

Looking through a broken wall, I saw the body of a girl. A falling timber had crushed her, It was obvious that she had been running across the rocking floor of the room, trying to escape, because her dead hand still clutched the knob of a fallen door. Near her was & head

“less corpse. Everywhere, men and women were

wandering about in the ruins. Most of them seemed out of their heads. Some prayed. Some wept. Some merely stared, blankly and stupidly, A thick yellow dust—from the smashed adobe houses—still’ hung heavily in the air. It covered everything. The faces, the hands, the clothing of the survivors were thin with it and my eyes and pores were choked with it. Every street was clogged with debris. Entire blocks were uneven masses of ruins with not a building standing. Bodies were everywhere, in the streets, in the piles of rubbish, arms and legs showing through crumbled mortar and shattered timbers. There were so many bodies and so few living that dead bodies seemed more normal than living ones and soon I hardly noticed death. ’

10,000 Believed Dead

I was told that of the city’s 40,000 inhabitants, 10,000 had been killed and 10,000 more were wounded or|¢ missing. Most of the missing, presumably, were dead men and women buried under debris. - From what 1 saw, I believe these estimates to be approximately correct. Only one of the buildings around Chillan’s plaza remained standing. The hotel, the police station, the cathedral, the postoffice, and the telegraph building were all In ruins!. and fire still raged in some of them. The hospital had remained standing, though a great crack was visible

They begged me to get word to Santiago that they needed gauze, ether and other medieal supplies most urgently.

A. number of conscripts were injured. The Colonel in command had marched the surviving members of the regiment to the ruined plaza (Continued on Page Three)

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26 (U. P.) — The Senate Civil Liberties Committee today proposed that Congress enact legislation prohibiting employers from hiring agencies or |P. individuals as strikebreakers. In the first of a series of six reports on its extensive hearings into alleged civil liberties violations, the committee told the Senate: “The focal point of remedial action should be the market for strike services. Federal jurisdiction over industrial relations in or affecting interstate commerce is now clearly established. “The committee recommends legislation to forbid the employer to engage agencies or individuals who will engage in the customary prac-
