Gets Locksmith to Ald_ In Burglarizing Store Chicago, Sept. 6 (B — Manuel Kulback, 18, conceived the idea of robbing a South State street shoe store but figured it would be too much work, so he got some help. As told to Judge Burke yester- day, the story was that Kulback called upon Andrew Phillips, a locksmith, and said: “I have lost my key to the store. Please un- lock the place for me." Of course young Kulback never did have a key to the store, but the locksmith had no way of knowing that, so he unlocked the door. But Kulback did have the com- bination of the safe. As he and the locksmith opened the store, a customer entered behind them. Kulback waited on the customer, meanwhile giving the combina- tion of the safe to Phillips and telling him to please open the cafe. This done, the his bill was $7. him out of the safe, and when the locksmith had gone, Kulback tool what other money he could find and went away. Now he has heen arrested and held for the grand jury after con- fessing. —_— I locksmith said Kulback paid Mr. and Mrs. Harold Parsons, Alan McKinne, Mr. and M Earl Van Buskirk, Mr. and Mrs. W.

The common council unanimously voted to recommend that the board of finance and taxation prepare the bond issue and immediately after the council meeting the board met in the mayor's office and voted to lave the bonds issued. The final p will be taken when the council will be of the hoard allowing the sale. According to Mavor Quigley it is necessary for the city to effect a peculiar financial arrangement to rovide money for unemployed resi- dents. The funds from street bonds will be appropriated to the board of public works department. This will be used to replace an 886,000 appro- | priztion for street work now public works treasury. This procedure is made necessary by the fact that money can be used in works ~department it ed for any other department through transfer. However it is possible to transfer board of pub- lic works funds to amother depart- ment during the two final months of the fiscal year. In the meantime the city may borrow money for the welfare department in anticipa- tion of the transfer. Mayor Quigley reviewed unem- ployment conditions for the benefit of the poard of finance and taxa- tion. He said the welfare depart- ment is caring for 298 families while last year there were only 98 amilies on the list. The depart- ment allows §2 a week each adult while last year $1.50 and $1.75 were allowed. More than $1.000 is being paid for rent by ment and from now | to the mayor, it will be necessary to pay for fuel and clothing. Mayor Quigley told of a small fund that has been built up through private contributions. He has been | able to relieve suffering with this money but now it is exhausted. There is a higher type of person looking for assistance, according to the mayor. Men who have saved | money while they were working have spent the last of their savings and are forced to seck assistance from the city. The mayor told of where persons were given charity when it was proved they were not deserving of it. His statement was made in answer to criticism that welfare department officials are considered “hard boiled.” the public cannot be two instances | LIGHT SHOCK AT MELFI \mr.
