YEGGS FOILED INATTEMPT T0 LOOT A VAULT Employe, Working on Holi- day, Finds Hole in Floor Leading to Tunnel Chicago, May. 31—(AP)—Tun- neling for 50 feet beneath an alley to the vault of a suburban bank, bandits found their plans frustrat- ed because an employe went to work on a holiday. Opening the vault Sunday morning, Anton L. For- macek, assistant cashier, found a | hole’in the floor of the stronghold in which $2,000 in cash, securities and jewels were stored. Police, delving-into the excava- tion, pursued their way through a narrow tunnel into an aljacent garage. On the garage floor were found money bags containing $6,830, all but nine dollars of the loot missing from‘ the vault. The thieves had planned’ the robbery elaborately and the owner of the garage said they had leased the structure two months ago. Mysterious truck loads leaving the garage were explained by the police as sacked dirt removed from the tunnel. The bank at which the Bi ~was directed was the Marskell Sqdar State Bank on the north- : le. Officers believed culmination of the plot had been fixed for today, a holiday, and that only the un- xpected coming to the bank of Formacek to post some checks pre- nted complete loot: of the vault. The tunnel was timbered and electrically lighted, with pads to keep out the damp.

Witnesses taken across the country have receiv. ed travel allowance not quite cient to pay their railroad S and Pullman berth and have thercfo not only lust their time, but have been compelled to pay for their meals out of their own pockets. The result has heen that many witnesses have become embittered at the treatment given them by this government, and prosecuting officials feel that such treatment has often conscious unconsciously colored the testimony given in court. 8 Candidates Initiated Into Local K.
