DECLARES DAUGHERTY
WILL QUIT OFFICE
Senate Told Attorney General Will
Resign Rather Than Embarass
the Administration.
(By Associated Press Leased wire.)

(By Associated Press Leased Wire.)
Washington, D. C.-The declaration
that Attorney General Daugherty
should resign from Office and not
further embarass the administration,
was made in the Senate today by SEN
ator Caraway, Democrat, Arkansas,
during a renewal by the senator of
discussion of Mr.. Daugherty's alleged
connection with the release from the
Atlanta prison of c. W., Morse, New
York ship builder.
Mr.. Caraway charged that the at
torney general had requested Thomas
B. Fielder, former Georgia attorney, to
employ "the governments chief wit
ness" in the Bosch Magnetic investi-
cation as his assistant in defending
the Bosch company. He reviewed
records and documents in the Morse
case and exclaimed:
81 say there is only one decent thing
for the attorney general to do, that is
to resign and not embarass the ad-
ministration any further"

AUTO Is STOLEN
BY BOLD THIEVES
J. Tomlinson's Nash Tour
ing Car is Stolen Off
Busy Street.
HIS SECOND LOSS

"Misfortunes come not\ single spies
but in battalions," wrote the famous
English bard several centuries ago and
John Tomlinson, well known real es-
tate man of Kenosha is just about con-
WINGED that he must have been prophe-
sying the troubles which were to come
with motor cars. Less than three
weeks ago Mr.. Tomlinson had one au-
tomobile burn up while it was being
driven along the street. Now to cap
the climax, some thief comes along
and steals his other automobile right
off busy street.
The theft happened on Saturday
night. Burt and Walter Tomlinson,
sons Of the owner of the car, had been
driving it and early Saturday night
left it parked on Wisconsin street be-
tween Church and Chicago streets.
When they returned less than two
hours later the car was gone.
The automobile which was burned
several weeks ago was insured; the one
stolen Saturday night was uninsured.
Third Robbery in Week.
The theft of the TomllnSon automo-
bile is the third automobile robbery in
Kenosha in the past week. The police
are working on theory that Chicago
and Milwaukee auto thieves are using
Kenosha as basis of operation.
The theft of the Tomlinson car was
reported to the police as soon as it was
discovered Saturday. 1t was thought
for a while that the car might have
been driven away by some one who
intended to play joke on the owners
but this theory has now been discard
ed. The stolen car was fve-passen-
ger Nash touring car.
Need for Utmost Care.
Police officials are repeating the
warning which was sounded earlier in
the week advising automobile owners
to take extraordinary precautions at
the present time to guard their cars
from thieves. If car disappears own
ers are urged to notify the police at
once in order that the search for it
may be instituted early enough to APP
prehend the thieves if this is at all
possible.
