THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, O a POSTAL INSPECTORS RECOVER $500,000 | = IN RAID AT CHICAGO One Arrest Made In Relentless Effort to Break Big Band of Robbers Chicago, Oct. 26.—(4)—One man was under arrest Thursday and $500,000 of $613,000 in mail loot was in posses- sion of the government as federal agents continued their relentless search for the robbers. The man under arrest was George W. (Red) Kerr, seized in a hotel Wed- nesday along with allegedly stolen securities valued at $100,000 or more. Kerr will be extradited to Califor- nia and tried there for a mail rob- bery last Feb. 9. Chtef Inspector Walter Johnson of | the postal department said the half million dollars in securities recently recovered represented $200,000 of $237,000 taken in a mail holdup here last December; $100,000 of $126,000 taken in a robbery of the liner Levia- than in New York harbor last year, and $200,000 of $250,000 seized in a Sacramento, Calif., robbery last Feb. 9. The agent said government men working on the case had discovered that Chicago was the center used for disposal of the stolen securities. Linked in the investigation are sev- eral members of the notorious Chi- cago Touhy gang. Roger Touhy, the leader, and s¢veral members are now in jail in St. Paul, Minn., under fed- eral indictment for the kidnaping of William Hamm, Sr., St. Paul brewer. The government agent said one of the men in custody, “Gloomy” Bus Schafer had been identified as a par- ticipant in the Sacramento robbe: 5 O | Weather Report | — — FORECAST For Bismarck and vicinity: Fair tonight and Friday; somewhat warm- er Friday.

McKENNEY (Secretary, American Bridge League) The gentlemen from Kentucky — [and the ladies, too—have expanded their list of pastimes beyond horse- racing to contract bridge. Their first annual state championship tourna- ment was held recently at Fort Thomas, and I was thoroughly pleased with the fine exhibition of contract bridge played in this tournament. Mr. Louis Weber and Mr. Charlton ‘Wallace of Cincinnati, after a close 1ace, captured the contract pair championship and today I present one of the hands that helped them win. In this hand I believe South’s dou- ble bad, because if East and West are in a bad contract South is bound to have a good score without the dou- ble, while the double may disclose valuable information to the declarer. The Play North’s opening lead was the eight of clubs, Mr. Weber in the West win- ning with the king.

If he trumped with the ten of hearts, Mr. Weber would overtrump with the jack, South, however, trumped with the queen and Mr. Weber won the last trick with the jack, making his contract of a small slam doubled.

Langer’s wheat embargo had little or no effect in Dickinson and Stark county this week as elevators | announced they would continue to buy grain at least until storage capacity was exhausted. Sheriff John Lish, upon receipt of the governor's embargo order, noti- fied 28 elevators in the county they were not to make shipments. He said all elevator men had promised to comply with the order. Local elevator men reported pur- chases as usual and in some cases said farmers were bringing in more! wheat than usual, anticipating the date when storage capacity would be exhausted and they would be unable to sell. No wheat had been shipped from the local station. F. D. Cooper, Northern Pacific agent, said he in- formed elevator men his road would three _assistants—Thomas Boutrous, Bismarck; Leo O'Leary, Minot, and Miriam Onstad, Grand Forks.
