L e 10 GANG WARFARE ON AGAIN IN PHLA Gangster Shot to Death From Automobile Philadelphia, Sept. 171 UP—While the federal government had joined hands today with District Attorney John Monaghan in an effort to rout the Philadelphia liquor ring, under investigation by a special grand jury, the police professed to see in the shooting to death last night of one alleged gangster and the wounding of another a renewal of the gang warfare that brought about the investiation A unit of the inteligence depart- ment of the Internal Revenue serv- ice, headed by George E. Golding was here today under orders from Dr. J. M. Doran, federal prohibition administrator, to aid in the investi- gation, which the district attorney declares has revealed bribery of po- lice by the bootleggers and murder by hired assassins To Appoint Deputy Golding informed the local prosc- cutor that it necessary a special deputy attorn:y general would be appointed and that they would work in cooperation with the county au- thorities to hreak up the rum ring. The federal agents, described as the star “clean-up unit” of the pra hibition forces will conduct their zc- tivities here under the direction of Mrs. Mabel Walker Wijlebrandt. as- sistant attorney general in charge of prohibition cases Police attribute the slaying last night of Amelio Scaramo and the wounding of James Flora to a re- sumption of the gang feud which culminated in the death last spring of Vincent Cocozza and his cousin, Joseph Canghi. The two men were shot by Pasquale Livoy, proprietor of a bottling plant, after they were alleged to have held him up in his establishment and robbed him of $48 in cash and some jewelry. Livoy was held on a technical charge of manslaughter Fire From Automobile A girl and two men, who were waiting in an automobile, opened fire on Livoy when Flora staggered from the place and tried to re the car, witnesses said. The sweep- ing fire failed to halt Livoy, who| rushed from the door and sent a fusillade from his pump gun in the direction of the automobile. The girl and her companions then leap- ed from the car and fled on foot. District Attorney Monaghan pro- mised more startling revelations to- day in connection with the grand jury investigation. He declared that his investigators were hot on the trail of avidence that the bootlex ring had tried to cover up many of its major activities through women. who had been induced to lend their nameas to the ‘business. FATHER BELIEVE REDFERN ALIVE Thinks That Aviator, Lost a Year, Roams Southern Jungles (BY EDWARD W. LEWIS) (United Press Staff Correspondent) lanta, Ga, Sept. 11 (UP)—A young American with heavy black beard and mottled hair is alive in the jungles of tropical South America, awaiting an opportunity to journey down some great river to civilization, his father believes one year after Paul Redfern left Bruns- wick, Ga, on a flight to Rio de Janeiro. It was a year ago last month, that Redfern, 24 year old aviator left a wide stretch of beach in a gold and silver monoplane and pointed the craft southward towards the Bahamas, and the continent of South America, way beyond. But for the crew of a freighter, the Kris- tian Krogh, no one has reported sight of the plane since. Redfern circled the Kristian Krogh,, miles off the Venezuela coast, some 24 hours after he sped away from Brunswick, and then disappeared southward. Dr. Frederick Redfern, president of a negro Baptist college at Colum- bia, 8. C. and his wife, now na- tional republican committee woman from the state, continue to hope their son is alive. They think there is ample reason to believe he lives in some fastness in the interior of Brazil or far up the reaches of the Orinoco in Veneziela or Columbia. Had Complete Equipment Redfern cautiously left with full equipment for a forced landing in the jurgles. No single item that a man might necd in the tropical fast- nesses was forgotten He knew the prevelance of terrific electric storms in the region he must pass through on the wav to Rio and took precautions for such a landing and for a six months' sojourn the wilder ¥e had & parachute, ed leap overboard should his plane give out of gas The equipment he was packed in a dunnage hooked to the parachute rords 1 pl o5 as tackle | tropical n and beasts e chocolate, on to kil its to s of 150 | in | dean slopes, where his plane might have been forced down—west of the course to Rio.

The rugs can be simple or intri- | cate in pattern and color, she says. | and for this reason offer an excel- | {lent medium for the exercise of originality by the patients, Fur- ther, they are useful and available and some of the patients have been | able to dispose of enough rugs to | pay for the warp used and then supply their homes and friends. | developiug their pride, self-respect | and self-reliance while restoring | their muscles usefulness. In| some instances, men discharged | from the hospital have been able | to buy or make looms and become | partially or wholly self-supporting. | Citing an outstanding case, Dr.| Zoller tells of the progress toward rehabilitation made in eight months by a man who was referred |to her department with his right {arm and hand almost totally para- Iyzed and his right leg and foot partially disabled. He soon be- came interested in weaving rugs. “He has woven dozens of Tugs which he has either sold or given away,” she relates. “He is a non- compensable patient, and with the money which he has made from his weaving he has managed to re- tain his self-respect in many per- sonal ways. He no longer feels that he might as well commit sui- cide, as he did when he first re- ported to our department. “He can now comb his hair with | his right hand, to say nothing of having been the station gardener's assistant ever since the first signs of spring. . . .

NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1928, CHILDREN TAUGHT DINCING FREE Cleveland Offers Instruction to All Youngsters New York, Sept. 11 (—Cleveland may become the heart of “dancing America.” That is if the training of its chil- aren has any influence on the Ohio | city's terpsichorean prestige. For the municipality each year offers free dancing lessons to all its youth, rich and poor, and from 400 to 500 pupils receive the expert instruction of Miss Helen Jeanette Wheeler. dancing master employed by the city. So far as Miss Wheeler knows. Cleveland is alone in operating such a plan. The instructress, here for the fiftieth annual convention of the American Society of Teachers of | Dancing, believes the city's funds are well,spent in affording the chil- dren an opportunity to learn the graceful art, and that the resultant benefits more than compensate for the expense | “The children dancing together | help to build up a unified eivic, spirit” she says, “Children on the cast side, children on the west side, | receiving the same attention and working together in the project, cannot help producing a better The municipal instruction, given | in various gymnasia and other cen- ters, also frequently “finds” out- standing talent among the children who without this aid might never be “discovered” or developed.
