ton. a sixteen year old clerk. who
stole s772,ooo worth of bonds, was
credited with saying that he was in
iuenced by the lenicncy of Judge
Kenesaw NJ. Lands. in postponing
sentence on an Ottawa, Illinois, bank
teller.
Mr.. Dalton denied the reports that
he had said he was Influenced by
Judge Lands. when they were called
to his attention q few nours after his
capture at Heyworth, Illinois. Febru-
airy 25. The denial was bulletincd. the
same as the first story of the capture,
comments from all over the country
from persons who have read only the
incorrect report that Dalton had
blamed him.
An investigation of the story at its
source, in Heyworth. brought affida-
Wits that Mr.. Dalton had made nc
such statements.
A newspaperman of Heyworth. who
was probab the first news writer to
interview the boy after his capture
made this sworn affidavit:
"Our conversation was about as fol.
lows:
"Reporter-'Did you ever read
about the Ottawa case which came
before Judge IAndis?'
"Dalton--No.'
"Reporter-The two cases resem.

stunt
"Reporter-Then you have read
about the Ottawa case"
"Dalton-'Yes, I have read abou,
it,"
When this conversation was report
ed over the long distance telephone
he questions became mixed with the
answers. with the result hat Dalton
was made to say that he thought the
Ottawa case fitted his own.
This incorrect report was in type
for several hours before investigation
by Associated Press writer's brought
denials from Mr.. Dalton that he had
