Access to More Money Than
Bank Secretary.

CHICAGO. April 30.-willie Dalton,
heralded at the age OF seventeen as
the premier bond thief Of the country,
yesterday was made to look like a
piker, or else a wealcling who could
only carry away $772 900 at one time.
James A. Russell, assistant secre-
tary of the Northern Trust Company,
testifying in the trial Of Dalton. said
that at the age of sixteen Willie was
-the boss" Of a vault in which $4,000
600 worth Of negotiable Liberty bonds

Willie. a few months ago, walked out
with S772 900 worth and was not ap-
pretended for moro than twenty-four
hours.
Yes, he was in charge of more
money than I was" admitted Russell.
The defense is based on the fact
that the bank, in placing such temp
tations before minor, is more to
blame than Dalton.

The Administration today is In Z

Legislative puzzles. Appointments
delayed include thousands OF post
masters, internal revenue collectors,
collectors of customs, prohibition
directors, and enforcement officials.
THREE STUMBLING BLOCKS.
All Jobs in these classes are in
volved in fresh complications which
the Cabinet today outlined under
three headings:
Necessity to readjust Civil
Service rules to permit wider choice
Of postmasters from among avail

sspoils system"
ADifferences over tho proposal to
transfer prohibition enforcement
from the Treasury to the Depart
ment of Justice, leaving to the
Treasury only purely revenue and
tax phases of Volstead law admin
1stration.
3-Difficulties arising out OF huge
sums of unsolicited taxes and other
obligations for which present in
cumbents in tho Internal Revenue
Bureau are responsible. under heavy
bonds, and inability easily to
transfer those responsibilities to
new appointees.

a. most important In these three
problems the question of quickly dis
posing of appointments Of post
masters.

Senators and Representatives in
conferences with Secretary of the
Treasury Mellon declared that with
uncollected items Of revenue and other
tax deficits probably reaching $780,
oO0, 900. a stumbling block has been
put in the way Of selecting revenue
officials. Officials are endeavoring to
remove some Of these difficulties, but
prospective candidates for the new
Jobs are unwilling to assume financial
liabilities Of the old administration.
Appointment Of new prohibition Of
ffcers may be delayed indefinitely
pending settlement OF Legislative
proposals to shift enforcement to the
Attorney General. More than 1000
appointments are involved in this
Issue. including both administrative
officials and STATS Of operatives
throughout the country.
Many months. however. may elapse
before the way is cleared for decision
on these appointment matters. Some
phases of them may be adjusted
earlier. but the prospect today was for

that the monopoly OF such far

upon a company in which foreign

In TINS connection, desire most
earnestly to direct your excel

ABOUT COMEDIANS

Harry K. Morton. the comedian

ed to make 1.-THE Sweetheart Shop"
a big musical comedy success. be-
lieves firmly in the fact that a
young actor in seeking engage
ments finds feast or a famine in
securing one.
He tells of a vaudeville friend
who had an act depending entirely
upon a trained duck. which show
ed remarkable intelligence in per-
forming certain stunts, making the
act novelty and very laughable.
This vaudevillian had been very
fortunate in securing engagements
and the act made quite a reputa
ton until one day there came a
lull and he was idle much of the
time. Then for months he could
get nothing to do until the time
when starvation looked him
squarely i'm the face.
The tragedy occurred on Thanks
giving day Penniless hungry and
remOrseful, he ate the duck. AS
the last mouthful was swallowed n

who is anxious to exploit her
daughters beauty for purposes Of
her own. At Monte Carlo, the

appeared on the scene and after
dramatic incidents love wins the

UNIVERSITY MAN
MAKES SURVEY OF
OIL DEVELOPMENT

Robert w. Ellis, professor Of
geology in the university, and state
goologist has made a survey Of thc
ell situation in New Mexico, which
has been published in the form of
a bulletin Of the university. with
the growing demand for petroleum,
due to the increase in motor vehicle
production, oil burning ships and
home production of dye stuffs, new
fields are constantly being sought,
and because of its proximity TO the
wealthy fields Of Texas, and the
producing districts Of Colorado,
New Mexico has been considered
by many to be the future savior of
the petroleum industry.
One eastern company along is re-
puted to have spent 10000 in
gathering data on the geology Of
the state, and up to the present
time. efforts have failed TO demon
strate the presence of oil in pay
ing quantities, although some
races have been discovered. Be
cause of the steadily increasing
demand for information concerning
he geological possibilities Of New
Mexico, with particular regard TO
nil, Professor Ellis has gathered
lata which is both comprehensive |
md complete. He takes up the
state as a whole, and then county
oy county giving the histories of
many drilling and exploiting ope
'ations. The text is accompanied |
by a map, showing locations of past |
md present drilings, and favorable
structure for oil.
