Chief Burke Says Prison

Robber Band Leader.
is HARDENED CRIMINAL

Chief of Police Burke says he
does not believe a lengthy term in
prison will conquer the lust for
crime possessed by Robert Stakaway,
Indicted bandit leader, hold-up man
n burglar. He believes a state
prison term will harden in the ban
dit the criminal tendencies he re-
Gently displayed, and following his
release, he will pursue the same tao
tics.
Stakaway was brought before
Judge Lyon yesterday to plead on
the Indictment recently handed
down by the grand jury. He offered
a plea Of not guilty. His stand, the
chief AYERS, will tend to increase his
sentence. possibly making a differ
ence of five years In Judge Lyons
decision.

of leading a straight career after be-
