Acting on information they obtained in one of Jack Zuta’s safe deposit boxes, state attorney's agents raided the luxurious apartment of Joe Aeillo, head of the Unione Siciliano, and his brother Dominick. They found a mass of records, several weapons and about 100 keys. Whether the papers contained any mention of financial transactions with public officials such as was found in the records kept by the slain Zuta was not revealed. The Aiello records were being studied carefully, it was announced, and an effort was being made to trace additional papers through the keys found in the broth- ers’ apartments. Neither of the Aiellos was at home when the investigators arrived. Their ee who protested loudly against the search, said the notorious broth- ers left the city ‘soon after Lingle was killed more than two months ago. Police have always considered the gang headed by G “Bugs” Moran responsible for the shooting of Lingle, with Zuta, the brains of the Moran gang, as the probable plotter. The Aiello apartment was described by Patrick Roche, chief investigator, as expensively furnished with Oriental rugs, heavy drapes and modernistic furniture. “But there was not a book in the place,” Roche said. in Aug. 2 ee, “George W.| The law chairman of President sores comic on lew ake ance and enforcement, told members American Bar association yes- the tude of mind abiding but that the individual must abide by the restraints im- Ww. said, “Otherwise,” he |, “lawful gov- breaks down and we have of those who & 5 half pages * * general acceptance of statute ie the selection of prosecutors, court |Emilio Herrera.

Other schools in the county will open from September 15 to October 15, the latter having only the mini- mum term of seventh months, Miss Runey said. Preliminary check of the teachers employed by the various school boards shows that only nine of 133 to be employed this year remain to be ap- pointed. All of the data pertaining to teacher employment has not been {received at the county superintend- ent’s: office as yet, however. Most of the teachers have been reappointed to the jobs which they filled last year and the number of new teachers is expected to be less than 30.

The statistics are a comment on the potential power of food, diet and enlightenment to bring back the Biblical days when there were mighty men on earth, The finding is made at Peabody museum by Gordon T.

These figures are all the more striking because the fathers were more than a year older on the average than them. In the comparison of the last two generations of Harvard men. the boys were 18.5 years old, where their fathers had averaged 19.6 years. The comparisons included 1,461 couples, nearly 3,000 men.

The democratic state convention adopted yesterday, without a dissent- ing vote, an anti-dry plank calling for unqualified repeal of the eigh- teenth amendment and immediate repeal of the Volstead act, the Jones law and the Illinois search and seizure act. “And we shall”, the platform read, “under no circumstances favor any legislation in Illinois that will restore the open saloon.” Pending repeal of the eighteenth amendment, the platform calls for immediate repeal of the Volstead act and substitution of an act permitting the manufacture, sale and transporta- tion of light wines and beer. The democrats also criticized pri- mary expeditures of the republican senatorial nominee, Ruth Hanna Mc- Cormick. Declaring “this debauchery by ex- cessive wealth excludes men and wo- men of moderate means from parti- cipation in elections”, the platform said precedent in Newberry, Vare and Smith cases “indicated the republican nominee from Illinois would not be seated even if elected.” The platform also denounced the republican party “for saddling addi- tional burdens on the farmers of Am- erica by a vicious tariff measure d as a session primarily called for relief of the farmer.” f Is This Rabbit, or | Cat or Rabbit-Cat?
