FIND PARTS STOLEN
FROM MANY AUTOS
Sheriffs From Eight Nebraska
Counties Make Arrests at
Kearney and Grand
Island.

Kearney, Neb., June 27,-(Special
Telegram.)-A roundup of auto
thief suspects ended in this city to-
day with the location OF evidence in
the way of stolen tires, auto equip
ment, plates for changing auto en-
gine numbers and parts for altering
cars. William Faser was arrested here
and at the same time Frank St. Clair
was arrested at Grand Island, and
Sheriff Condit ordered the detention
OF two men at Fremont. Six stolen
cars were located in the roundup, all
at Broken Bow, and four of the max
chimes were identified.
Many Officers Take Part.
Sheriffs representing eight counties
arrived in the city during the night
and concluded their Investigations Of
weeks. Those taking part in the
roundup were Sheriffs Benton of
Lexington. Sievers of Grand Island,
Wilson of Broken Bow, Condit of
Fremont, Peterson of Fullerton, Pot
ter of Osceola, Howard of Aurora,
Deputy Sheriff Thompson of Broken
Bow and Sheriff Funk of Kcarney.
Raids ct the St. Clair home here
revealed a fine set of steel dies, emery
wheels and the like, a complete outfit
for grinding numbers off car engines
and punching in substitutes.
In addition many auto parts, taken
from various makes of cars, were
found. At the William Faser home
many new tires and castings were
found and search of the George
Faser place revealed additional tires.
These were all identified as having
been stolen at Aida.
Say Parts Were Bought.
The Fasers claim that all were
bought from transient autoists. The
belief of the officials is that cars were
stolen in all parts of the state,
brought to Kearney or Broken Bow
and overhauled and then disposed Of.
Disclosures locally would indicate
that kearney has been the switching
point for the stolen cars. Others are
suspected of implication in the theits
and more arrests are ANTICIPATED,
