innate of $3.50. .00e. .0o0 for the next
fiscal year On all sides it was ad-
1Ylitted that the drive for a reduc-
ton from tha; figure was gaining
headway. although many leaders
insisted that to cut much under the
DENLY estimate would put the navy
below, the ratio rating fixed by the
arms conference.

mentioned as the most probable to

amount would give the navy an en-
listed personnel Of 10000. or lo.-
600 less than fixed by the last APP
preparation bill. Nobody in author

what the enlisted personnel would
be if only seo0. 900. 900 was au-

COMPLICATED CASE Of AUTO

seemingly complicated and rather

Leslie and George Welborn, Charles

They were brought to this city from
Las Animas county by ]. c. Cramer,
said to be n detective working for an
automobile insurance company. This
was early In this month, and the men
were taken TO the county Jail. from
which several We're soon released on
bonds furnished. The others We're re-
leased on bonds yesterday at the close
OF the first session or the preliminary
hearing.
1t is understood that Cramer worked
up the case and found the autos or
parts of them in possession of these

men or some of them somewhere in
tho Rattlesnake Buttes region in
northeastern portion Of Las Animas
county. After arrests had been made
the sheriff's office there notified the
Pueblo sheriff. and just as officers
from here We're starting after the men.
Cramer showed up with the men.
Cramer was not in court yesterday,
and this Is why the hearing was con-
tinucd. 1t is said that his testimony
is vital. and the district attorney
stated that he would be here at the
next hearing.
Judging from the evidence adduced
at yesterdays hearing there are two
outfits in the tolls, and that each is
trying to pass the buck to the other
in the matter of blame.
District Attorney Hughes represent
ed the state at the hearing. Judge G.
S. Essex represented one group Of the
defendants. and Attorney John A.
Martin the other group.

peared that everybody was cropping
