DEWEY TO ACT NEW YORK, Jan. 3 (UP)—The gangster Louis iLepkp) Burhalter, already condemned to 14 years federal prison, falls today into the hands cf the racket-busting District Attorney Thomas E. Dewey, who has boasted that he has enough evidence to “put him away for 500 years." The contest between Dewey and Attorney General Frank Murphy in Washington for the privilege of imprisoning the dreaded industrial mob leader ended last night when Murphy announced, a few hours after Lepke had been sentenced in federal court, here, that Dewey could have him for trial. It was a timely decision. Three of Lepke's alleged henchmen, William Goldis, Max Silverman and Samuel Schorr, were scheduled for trial today on flour and bakery trucking racket charges. I-opke had been indicted with them and he may go to trial with them immediately. Aside for a moral and perhaps a political victory fob Dewey, another conviction of Lepke would mean little. Murphy specified that Lepke would be turned over for state prosecution only on condition that any state sentence imposed would be withheld until he had serve 1 his federal term. In addition to the 14 years federal sentence, Lepke was given a 10-year probationary period during wliich he would remain under federal supervision, and in passing that sentence, Judge John C. Knox said the 24 years covered the full life expectancy of the gangster, who is 43 and unhealthy.

Which Way

in 1940?

• Several roads lie just ahead. One is labeled “Indifference,” and it will he taken by those who care nothing about the future. Another is marked Incompetence, and it will he traveled by those without the foresight or the character to practice thrift. But one road will lead to Security, and this is the one we hope you Avill take.

• Milestones along this road are the opening «»f a hank account, and the making of regu-

lar deposits.
