JAPANESE BANK AT

The robbers gained access 10 the

into the bank and thus reaching the
rear OF the safe. They had intended

OF chisels. With these a hole was cut
through the hack Of the safe, a task
that must have required several hours
steady work. Through this hole the
strong box was reached and all the cash
taken out except $3.50, which was
covered with papers. The robbery was
not discovered until the bank was about

lice say I, was the work of expert bur-

When he was told there was no va

though very tired he talked to kugel
for an hour. Kugel made number Of
articles out of this interview, and
later returned TO the playwright man
ager to ask him for his signature as a
guarantee OF their authenticity MIR,
Belasco signed them without reading
