ese OSAP IRL OT POI eA EE EEN RENE PR MEE Z = er FOOD SHORTAGE IN RUSSIAN GRANARY BRINGS IRON RULE Ukraine and North Caucasus Officials Removed By Or- der From Moscow Moscow, Sept. 26—(#)—The Uk- raine and North Caucasus, producers of one-third of Soviet Russia’s grain, have seen a general house-cleaning among local officials and dissident Peasants because of a serious food shortage. Political sections were introduced into agriculture to supply a driving force for collectivization of farms, ‘and to place the undisputed control of the key units in agriculture in the hands of new leaders. Outstanding among the changes in the Ukraine was the sending of P. P. Postisheff, a veteran member of the Communist party, to clean up a situa- tion in that area wrought by the mass inertia of the peasantry, at whos& door was placed part of the blame for @ famine last winter. Virtually every regional Commun- ist party official in more than a dozen villages through which the As- sociated Press correspondent passed on a recent motor tour said he had been on the job only a few months. Most of them were brought from distant places to supplant those. whom the central authorities in Mos- cow found too lenient with the in- dependent farmers and were thus held responsible for last year’s scanty crop. Even the native presidents of some collective farms—the administration of which heretofore has been self- elective—were replaced in some in- stances by Communist party members from other localities. Some of those who were removed were transferred to other jobs. Others, perhaps, shared the fate of some sections of the dissatisfied peasantry and were exiled to north- ern regions, “lk pale! | Weather Report ——_____———_-¢ FORECAST For Bismarck and vicinity: Gen- erally fair and not quite so cool, pos- sibly light frost tonight; Wednesday; increasing cloudi- ness and warmer.

Big Rewards Offered Police Chief Lee said there was $10,- 000 reward for Kelly in connection with the Urschell kidnaping and a $5,000 reward in connection with the bank job. Who is entitled to the re- wards has not been determined. The actual arrest of Kelly and the other three was made by Sergeant Raney, Detective Sergeant Floyd Wiebenga, A. O.

The arrest of Kelly and his wife came two days after their third wed- ding anniversary. “And what a swell anniversary,” she said as she was interviewed in a city jail cell. “I had a hunch we would be taken here.” She said she didn't want to “have anything more to do with Kelly,” and that “he got me into this terrible mess.” Chief Lee was taking no chances with his prisoners. The cells in which they were placed were surrounded by officers with machine guns and sawed off shotguns. Taken Without Struggle When they went to capture Kelly, officers surrounded the house in which he was asleep and Raney en- tered. He was standing in the front hall- way when Kelly opened the door of Lous sawed-off shotgun pointed at his heart. “Drop that gun, Kelly,” Raney said he told him. and surrendered. “IT have been waiting for vou all night,” Raney quoted him as saying. “Well, we are here,” was Raney’'s answer. At the police station, Police Chiet Lee said, Kelly ddmitted his identity but refused to talk. “Chief,” he was quoted as saying, “Y'm not talking about anything.” Later, smiling broadly and smoking one cigaret after another, Kelly re- mained defiant in another interview | with police. As Chief Lee walked into his cell, he demanded: “Who are you?” “I'm Chief Lee.” was the repiy. “Give me a light, then,” was Kelly's Hs | response. Noticing the fugitive’s yellow hair, Lee asked: “When did you dye your hair?” his bedroom, pistol in hand, to see a!
