private detective who figured in the
recovery of valuable jewelry stolen
from hotel in this city Warren was
last reported at Los Angeles July 4.
He had told his wife he was going to
Oakland. Since then there has been
no trace of him. The fact that valu-
able jewels. which were a part of the
hotel loot, were found in his office
safe after he left the city, at first
aroused suspicion that he had abscond-
ed. But detectives now incline to the
theory that Warren met foul pIav.
+ They cannot understand why, if he had
reasons for flight, he should leave the
jewels in his safe.
