Other Gangs Refuse To Join Surviving Members Of Dillinger’s Notorious Terror Moh CHICAGO, July 31 (UP)—The remnants of John Dillinger’s tdoody gang have separated and are wandering the Middle West looking for new underworld connections, the United Press has learned. Other gangs, finding the Dillinger outlaws “too hot to handle,” are refusing to have anything to do with

them.

The United Press informant, a character never directly involved with Dillinger in any of his murderous raids but nevertheless on intimate terms with the desperadoes, said the survivors of the gang are broke. When Dillinger was executed in a north side alley by federal agents and police a week ago he was a “lone wolf” deserted hy his trusted lieutenants because they feared his arrest or death was near. Dillinger, who had only $7.80 in his pockets when ho was shot down, was the paymaster of the gang and those who survived him are without

funds.

George Gillis, lietter known as Baby Face Nelson, fell heir to the title of Public Enemy No. 1 when Dillinger died but is without the cunning and daring that made his predecessor the nation’s most frantically hunted criminal since the days of Jesse

James.

John Hamilton—like Nelson he is wanted for murder—was hunted by a squad of government agents in the Northwest several days ago. He elud ed the trap, however, and was reported to l>e heading toward Indiana ox Illinois. Nelson, reported to have been seen around northern Wisconsin resorts over the week-end, was said by the United Press’ informant to be heading toward a hideaway in northeastern Indiana. The hideaway is believed to he in the lake region around Warsaw, where Dillinger and Homer Van Meter once staged a daring raid on a police arsenal. Van Meter, a paroled Indiana convict who joined with Dillinger in having his face altered hy means of plastic surgery, was said to lie hiding out in or around Chicago. Nelson is wanted for the slaying of W. Carter Baum, a federal agent, when Dillinger’s gang slipped thru a government ambush at the Little Bohemia resort in northern Wisconsin three months ago. Hamilton is charged with the killing of John Shanley a Chicago policeman. No killings have been carged to the account of Van

Meter.

Melvin H. Purvis, the government’s nemesis of Dillinger, refused today to comment on a report that four doctors suspected of having performed the plastic surgery operations were

in custody.

He also maintained an attitude of strict silence as to the whereabouts of the two women who accompanied Dillinger to a movie on the night of his slaying. The women, Mrs. Anna Sage and Polly Hamilton Keele, were in Purvis’ custody, according to persistent reports.

BRITISH FIGHT MOONSHIMSG LONDON, (UP)—The British customs authorities have begun a strong campaign to combat the increasing activities of illicit spirit distillers. Their attention i- being directed to districts in northern England, where ilicit distilling on a large scale is threatening to deprive the inland revenue department of a lucrative source of income. For two shillings and sixpence a gallon of “wash" can be made and the spirit of which is usually 8 per cent over proof, is soil at four shillings a pint, compared with the legal price of twelve shillings and sixixmce, of which aproximately nine shillings goes to the inland revenue depart - ment. The disastrous effect of this liquor, which has in many cases led to blindness and paralysis, is another factor which is causing the authorities to renew their efforts t<> stamp out the

sale.

Twenty officers from the inland revenue department have been sent from London to West Reding, Yorkshire, to reinforce the local outhorities and county police, who believe that their district is one of the main manufacturing and distribution points in this illicit trade.

if you can believe what you hear, Ruth Chatterton is lending an eager ear to Harry Cohn's proposals of a Columbia contract. The star is a great pal of Grace Moore and Grace is enthusiastic—as who i -n’t ? over the way her Columbia picture turned out. The most attractive feature of the offer to Ruth Chatterton is -aid to be a story which she likes very much. Ruth actually has turned down 18 pictures since she left Warners, because she couldn't see herself in the

roles.

I si Chatterton will .-have her price —quoting rumor again—if she accepts the Columbia deal. Cohn’s offer is said to total *100,1100 at $25,000 a picture. Know any Bengal l-aneers? Paramount will pay any authentic monilier of the famous British Indian reg-
