Motor Bandits Active
In Gary, Indiana

Gary Ind, Dec. 19.-An unidentified
negro was shot and killed and Mike
Binzen, a saloonkeeper, was seriously
wounded by four motor bandits this
afternoon, who escaped with $4,000
which the men were carrying from a
bank. The bandits overlooked an
equal amount which the negro was
carrying.
The negro and Binzen were carrying
the money in two satehels to Binzen s
saloon, where it was TO be used in cash
ing pay checks for steel mill workers.
The bandits drove up beside them
in the heart of the city and demanded
that Binzen turn over the money. Bin
zen and the negro started to run and
were shot down. Two of the bandits
leaped from the machine, gathered up
Binzen's satchel, climbed back in and
the automobile sped in the direction
of Chicago.
A big crowd witnessed the shooting,
but was cowed by the bandits re-
volvers.

Many dyspepties, however, have tried
so many highly praised remedies with
