unfairly treated In what was thought

FIRST NATIONAL INSTALLs
NEW LOCKS

G. C. Moutray of Clinton, Mo-, a
representative of the Dillin Lock
Works, Fort Dodge, Iowa, this week
installed the Dillon Burglar Proof
Locks on the vault doors of the First
National Bank of Monett, Missouri.
The device is automatic and abso-
lutely locks the vault door as soon as
the regular locking mechanism has
been destroyed by punching, blowing
or burning out with acetylinc gases.
1t relocks all the locking bolts so that
the door is as securely locked with the
regular lock completely destroyed as
it was before the burglars attempted
to force entrance. The lock is so ar
ranged that it can be located in an
infinite number of places on the door
SO that the burglars cannot determine
at what point it is located.
A large number of Missouri bankers
are adding the "Dillion Lock" to their
protective equipment. Several banks
have beer attacked which were equip
ped with this lock and in every case
the lock operated successfully and
held the door,. The Dillon Lock is re-
garded as particularly desirable on
Safety Deposit vault doors as an add
ed protection to the many valuables
deposited there by customers of the
bank. The Insurance Underwriters
covering the entire United States
have recognized the protective merits
of the Dillon Lock and have granted
a reduction of 10 per cent in burglar
insurance rated wherever the vault
doors are equipped with this pro-
lection.

MISSOURI BREEDERS RAISE $780,
900 FOR PROMOTION PURPOSE

The recently organized Missouri
association of Poland China swine
breeders is this week closing up a
campaign for $4,000 with which an
office will be equipped, and an exc
cutive secretary employed for three
years, according to Jumps Cautborne
of Kansas City, VINO is working
among the breeders of Barry county
and vicinity. He reports a spirit of
optimism prevailing among them and
a hearty response to the promotiona
project. Ten other parties are work
ing in other sections of the state.
"This is an effort on the part of the
Poland China men to keep the lead
which they think they now have in
Missouri" says Mr.. Cauthorne. The
1920 census shows that there are 74,-
139 pure bred animals of this breed
on Missouri farms, while the next
breed in point of number has 47,986
according to Mr.. Cauthorne.
A similar organization, perfected
six months ago in Illinois, has been
able to organize ten county breeders
association, distribute carload of
pure bred hogs in the undeveloped
section of southern Illinois by auction
sale, induce eleven parties to fit a
carload of hogs for the coming Inter
national Live Stock Exposition, and
has arranged for the shipment of
View herd to the National Cattle
Show at Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, to
be held in connection with the Centen-
nial Exposition next September which
will celebrate one hundred years of
Brazilian independence.

HEAVIER SENTENCE
GIVEN BOOTLEGGER
Judge Henson Sets Aside Verdict
When Prisoner Testifies For
Relative.

Mount Vernon, Mo-, May 18.-A
ninety-day sentence for bootlegging
given Allie Hadlock by Judge Charles
Henson in circuit court here this week
was set aside by Judge Henson today,
and sentence of twelve months. in
Jail administered to Hadlock as re-
suit of testimony he gave in liquor
charge against his brother-in-law, B.
E. Biddlecome.
When Hadlock's case was heard by
Judge Henson, Hadlock testified in
substance that he had been an Gin
nocent tool" in bootlegging activities,
and Judge Henson was, lenient he
sentenced Hadlock to serve three
months in Jail. But when Biddle-
comes case was heard yesterday,
Hadlock testified that he was the
principal character in the manufac-
ture of liquor that brought about the
two mems arrest.
Hadlock said he operated a still
found on a farm owned by Biddle-
come and that Biddlecome was not
aware of its presence.
The conflicting statements of Had
/ lock.in the two trials was too much
for Judge Henson. With Biddlecome's
case completed and he sentenced to-
serve ninety days in Jail and pay
fine of $1,000, Judge Henson today
ordered Hadlock brought from Jail to
the court room.
"You have either deceived this
court or have perjured yourself.,'
Judge Henson told Hadlock. 'When
your hearing was held, you said you
had been an innocent tool in this
matter. Now you testify that it was
you who was most active in the illicit
liquor traffic, and not Biddlecome.
Had ] known previously that you
were so guilty, I would have sentenc-
ed you to twelve months in Jail. And
that's what am going to do now;
your previous sentence is set aside.
Il want you to know that no per-
son can trifle with or deceive this
court"
Biddlecome is wealthy Lawrence
county land owi.er. He appealed his
case to the supreme court, but was
remanded to Jail in default Of appeal
bond.
Charles Mcdonald Of Joplin, a I'm
tied States deputy marshal, attended
the trial here. He said he holdsAa
federal warrant for Biddlecome's arS
rest. charging him with violating the
Volstead act, and will arrest him as
soon as he is released on the appeal
bond.
