AUTqRPP1NG'
GANG BUSY HERE
ON LARGE SCALE
Band RobS Fifty Cars Of Tires,
Wheels and Other ACCeSso-
ries on Streets and in
Garages in Month.

An organized gang of automobile
accessory thieves have stripped cars
OF thousands OF dollars worth of
tires, inner tubes and other equipment
in the last month.
The work OF the gang reached its
climax last week, when twenty thefts
aggresating approximately $l,5O0
were reported by automobile owners
to the police. Fifty thefts have taken
place in a month.
While the gang apparently seems to
be conhning its work TO cars that
have been parked on downtown
streets, many automobile owners re-
port that their garages have been
broken into and their cars completely
stripped.
The method employed by the
thieves, police say, is to carry jacks
and pry up the wheels SO that the
tires can be removed.
Cars Stripped on Streets.
That the thieves do not stop here
is shown from the fact that many
owners have reported that even their
carburetors, clocks and steering gears
have been removed in broad daylight
on principal downtown streets. The
commonest thefts, according TO police
records, are tires, wheels and tools.
One of the theories of the police Is
that the same gang formerly stole its
automobiles instead of stripping
them, but because of the plan recent
ly adopted for tracing stolen ma
chimes have found it more practicable
to strip them. This theory, police
say. is borne out by the fact that
many cars reported stolen are found
abandoned in a Short time, stripped of
all accessories and equipment.
SO far police have been unable to
find any trace of the stolen goods, de-
spite strenuous efforts made. 1t is
believed that it is being sent out OF
'~ Taken From High.priced Cars.
Reports at central station show that
the thefts are principally from high
priced touring cars.
The following twenty persons have
reported losses from their cars the
last week: R. S. Hart, 17+3 Park ave-
nue.; DR.. F. NJ. Hahn. 1927 Farnam

officers of the United States Ambulance
Corps called for 800 volunteers to go to

DIX SOLDIERS RUSH
HOME. FOR GOOD-BY
General Exodus of Selected
Men From Cantonment
Before Trip to South
URGE RIGID CENSORSHIP

CAMP DIX, wrightstown, N. J., oct. Is.
The longing for a sight Of folks at home"
which. followed the announcement from the
War Department that 5000 selected men
would be removed from this division and
sent somewhere in the South" was graft
fed Sunday in general exodus Of men, who
who were given furloughs until today
Major General Chase W. Kennedy, COM
manding the division, gave the troops this
opportunity of spending Sunday at home.
The order, which will draw thousands from
almost every National Army division to MI
the ranks of southern guard encampments,
caused some anxiety among the soldiers,
who feared they would be sent hundreds OF
miles from their homes without having op-
portunity of saying good-by.
While the men selected, according to the
War Department telegram, have, in many
cases, already been notified, the announce
ment from President Wilson, made public
tonight, has urged even a more rigid censor
ship Of troop movements. In many cases
captains of companies in which men nave
been selected for the southern camps are
ignorant themselves of the ultimate destina-
tion Of the men.
GENERAL REDISTRIBUTION
! Accompanying the departure Of the 5000
selected men is the general redistribution OF
men, mostly OF the 40 per cent QUOTA ilIO

than the announcement from division head
quarters that 1000 Camp Dix soldiers VIII
go to Camp Mcclellan, at Admission, Ala
and 5000 more will leave for the National
Army division at Camp Gordon, Georgia,
nothing has been made public respecting
the quotas. Division headquarters has
again and again urged that publication or
| troop movements be suppressed.
The cantonment wore a deserted look
| yesterday. The Sunday crowds were limited

| visitors. Almost every soldier whose home
is close enough to visit and return by $3.50
