In concluding his remarks Dr. Oxnam presented a parable and analogy. He showed how entirely possible it is for men in the mountains to erect a dam which will enrich thcmaelves while depriving the men on the desert below of even the neeessary amount of water. But after a time *he population on the desert would
realize what we are saying in our Christmas worship service,” said President G. Bromley Oxnam. speaking to the student body Tuesday morning at chapel services in Mehai - ry hall. The services this Week are being preceded by the singing of venerable hymns and carols by the student boy led by Dean McCutchan. Dr. Oxnam opened his remarks on the brotherhood of man with a brief treatment of the historical aspect of the Christmas attitude. He pointed out how impossible it was for the commoners at the time of Christ s birth to accept the fact that the Messiah possessed none ol the characteristics of temporal power —he sat on no throne, wielded no rod of iron. In the end it was the inability of the people to grasp his true significance which led to his death on the cross. Nor is this understanding confined to a particular historical period- down to the present day many of the strict-

only reasonable solution, the speaker brought out, is that the mountaineers shall voluntarily share the benefits from the dam proportionately with
the men on the desert.
And so it is with the disposition of interest in the modern financial world. There is nothing fundamentally evil in the system which permits a sum of money earned in one generation to provide an income in the next. But there is a basic maldistribution. And thus it becomes the duty of the intelligent few in power today to affect a more equable distribution of the national financial income if we arc to escape the inundation which must necessarily follow the impending destruction of the dam.

DEPUTY ATTORNEY GENERAL GIVEN CREDIT FOR CAPTURE
INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 18, ‘UP)— J. Edward Barce, Indiana’s gangster chasing deputy attorney general, is c-xpected back in Indianapolis today with a first hand account of his experiences in trapping Joseph Burns, escaped Indiana prison convict. Barce’s first action probably will be to report to Gov. Paul V. McNutt. Burns, one of the few surviving members of the John Dillinger gang, was trapped in his south side flat at Chicago. His arrest, it was learned, was made possible by Barce who learned Chicago underworld secrets by posing as a gunman. In a brief report to the governor, Barce named Bums, Dick Day, another former Indiana convict, and Tom Touhy, of the Touhy gang, as ringleaders in the $427,000 Brooklyn N. Y., armored car robbery. Revelation that Barce had posed as a gunman to meet the gangsters was denied late yesterday by Capt. John Stege of the Chicago "Dillinger squad.” Stege later reversed his story, however, and credited Barce with posing as an Indiana hoodlum. But this version was in error, it was learned from a highly authentic source here today. Barce actually took the role of a gangster “on the lam” from St. Louis. Because of the fact that there were numerous telephone calls between Chicago and St. Louis following the Brooklyn robbery, it was understood the gang believed Barce was the St. Louis contact man. Earce spent almost two months in Chicago, reporting his activities frequently to Governor McNutt, Captain Stege and postal officials. It was on Dec. 5 that Barce learned of Burn’s hideout from an Indiana woman who was a member of the old Touhy gang. Members of the gang visited the woman’s home frequently and she unwittingly gave Barce the information about Burns, it was learned. Barce also was reported to have learned much about affairs at the In-
diana state prison from the source. Burns was one of ten convict, escaped from the Michigan Cit stitution in September, 19.TJ q serving a life term imposed J tluako circuit court in 1921 charges of murder in connection a Culver bank robbery. Tom Touhy was paroled fron Indiana state prison in June He pleaded guilty in Marion « circuit court Dec. n, ^ charges of second degree bur and was sentenced to two to 14, Considerable pressure, poi and otherwise, was reported to hen brought to bear to c Touhy’s parole.
