PARIS POLICE ARE
CLEANING UP GANG
Arrest OF American Sergeants Part
of Expose of International Band of
Army Thieves

Paris, March 5--The police of Paris
have arrested two sergeants of the
American army, three Armenians,
two Belgians and three Frenchmen
in connection with the theft of Am
erican army stores. The Americans
arrested are Sergeants Prisler and
Glackson. The Americans are accus-
ed of stealing the goods and selling
them to the Arme1ians, who sold
them to the Belgians who in turn,
employed the F>renchmen to retail
them.
The stores alleged to have been
stolen comprised a large stock of to-
bacco and cigarettes and 5000 pounds
of chocolate and forty cases of pastry.
With these arrests the police believe
they have caught the men responsible
for wholesale dealings in American
stores and army products and sales to
civilians. The thefts played a part in
the foundation of the many reports
sent out from Paris last month con-
corning an epidemic of crime on the
part of Americans in Paris.
IT turns out that the gang is not an
American one, but an international
organization. Large stores of chocO-
late missing from the American ware
houses at st. Denis and stores of
cocoa and tobacco from the ware
house at Clichy have been recovered,
but q considerable amount is still
missing
