AID FLORIDA FARNS, PRESIDENT URGES Tells Jardine to Use Every Facility to Helo Rural Rehabilitation. By-the Associated Press. President Coolidge vesterday in- formed Secretary Jardine that “it is| my desire that you use every possi-| ble facility” of the Agricultural De- partment for the aid of farmers in the Florida stricken storm, area. The President expressed this wish in a letter to the Secretary in reply to & report on the Florida situation by Mr. Jardine. The report said about $300,000 was needed at once by farmers in the storm area. Mr. Coolidge wrote that it Congress “were In sesslon it would authorize tmmediate and substantial reilef for this class of sufferers,’ 2nd that it was his desire that “vou use for this pur- pose funds of your appropriations as will not interfere with your current operations.’ Need Called Urgent. The President’s letter to the Secre- tary read: “The reports which you have furn- ished me from vour agents in Florida with regard to the destitution which is | facing the farmers in the stricken area of that State indicates clearly the urgent need for prompt and effective assistance in the matter of furnish ing them with seeds and fertilizers. 'he Federal ( rnment has al ways been quick to respond to an emergency of this nature and I am confident “that if the Congress were in session it would authorize Immedi ate and substantial relief for this class of the sufferers in orida whose needs can not be met from other sources. “The reports set forth that the farmers must grow crops this Winter as their only source of living and that it will require approximately $300,000 to furnish them with the seeds and fertilizer necessary to enable them to get started. Would Give Full Aid. “It is my desire that vou use every | possible facility of vour department fmmedia to meet this crving need of the destitute farmers in the stricken areas of Florida and that vou use for this purpose funds of vour appropria tions as will rot with your current operation “A detailed account <hould he kept of all expenditures made to meet this emergency o that a full report may be made to the Congress MRS.

It was believed that another week would see the goal reached, if th: | contributions continued to pour in as they did last week. No New Tabulation. Yesterday's gifts, however, were small and national headquarters of the Red Cross made no new tabula- tion, leaving the grand total to date at $3,024,081.78. W n is lagging behind the a whole in climbing of ,000, having half of that sum yet to be Yesterday's total receipts amounted to $321, bringing the total raised in the District to $25.365.31.

Replying to a letter from a Govern- ment worker asking that he and his fellow employes be asked directly to contribute to the fund, Gen. Barnett pointed out that subscriptions could not be solicited in the Government departments and said that already the Government clerks had provided = large sum through their membershi; dues since the last annual roll call | of the Red Cross Thirteen thousand dollars of these membership fees, Gen. Barnett ex- plained, went into the National Red Cross budget and from this budget the national directors were able to appropriate $100,000 for immediate relief work upon receiving the call for aid from the scens of the disaster. Gen. Barnett also pointed out the hundreds of pieces of new garments and made-over clothing which had been gent to needy ones in Florida by members of the local Red Cross chap- ter, and told of aid given to refugees from Florida who passed through Union Station here.

BALTIMORE, October 2.—For the .| first time since the robbery when five armed bandits held up the paymaster of the Henry Sonneborn Co. in front of the company’s plant yesterday morning and escaped with $46,678, police tonight admitted they know the names of the men who staged the hold-up and expect to have them in custody within 24 hours. Police learned today that the auto- mobile used by the bandits was stolen in Chicago on September 21 and driven from there to Philadelphia, and that the Ohio tags found on the car Dempsey-Tunney fight. Captain of Detectives Burns refused to reveal the name of the owner of the car, but said the police are beginning to see light. General Alarm Sounded. A general alarm for the arrest of Leo Brown, known as “King of the Greeks,” has been sent out, and three other men, sald to be Greeks, but whose names police refuse to divulge, are being sought. A_fifth bandit, identified as James W. Danko, was found shot to death in the abandoned auto a few blocks from the scene of the. robbery 15 minutes after the hold-up. Oscar Johnson, an employe of a garage, identified the dead bandit as one of five men who stored the car about 2 o'clock Friday morning and returned for it about three hours later. Johnson identified the car and sald the men inquired the way to Philadelphia when they left. New York and Philadelphia detec- tives today searched for the persons who wrote letters that were found in ARGONNE| apartment homes to appreciate the many advantages offered at very reasonable rentals.

One of the letter read: “When are you going to send me that money? I need it for that deal.” The missive was written in code and came from New York. The letters also gave New York‘and Philadelphia telephone numbers, which are being investigated. Detectives and police = watched every steamboat pier and railroad station, and every road out of the city. The detectives also are working on the theory that Danko, or some other member of the band, worked at the Sonneborn plant. Death Blame Fixed. Dr. J. Howard Maldels, city post mortem expert, and Coroner Blades decided today after a post mortem, that the shot which killed Danko was accidental. This was held true be. cause of the direction the bullet ha taken. They denied a hammer ha been used to make away with the man. Maldels expressed the opinion Danko was killed when the bandit car, leaving the Sonneborn establish- ment, struck a parked car and lost one of its doors. This jar, Maldeis holds, would have been sufficient to set off the gun. The theory is verified by storles of evewltnesses, who said a shot was fired a5 the bandit car was driven way. The United States Fidelity & Guaranty Co. of Baltimore, which car- ried the insurance on the pay roll, today offered a reward of $2,500 for the “arrest and conviction of the bandits.
