Bandits Who Wounded Girl

Salt Lake City, Utah, Dec. 20
William A. Farr, 10. and Rex Aylett,
21. confessed last night that they
were the two bandits who shot and
probably fatally wounded Miss Roy
lance Fitzgerald. on a road south OF
here Saturday night as the culmina-
ton of a series Of highway robberies
that have terrorized motorists for
months past. Farr fired the fatal
shot from Al calibre pistol. He
led the officers tonight. following his
confession, to barn near n smelter,
where he had hidden the weapon.
Fairs confession greatly cleared
the situation for the investigators.
Aylett had told his story earlier in
the day. Farr said that he was
standing on the running board of the
stolen automobile, and fired the shot
which doctors say will at least cause
permanent paralysis of Miss Fitz-
gerald's limbs. 1t was Farr. accord.

the shot which narrowly missed an
other motorist. when the two motor
bandits accosted him on the state

Bank Bandit Dressed
as Woman Wounded

Dyer, Ind. Dec. 29.-By A. P.e
Three bandits this afternoon held up
the First National bank of Dyer and
escaped with $1,000.
One bandit, who was dressed as a
woman, was shot by John Keilman, q
grocer, and apparently mortally
wounded.
The bank was robbed a year ago
in the same manner by bandits who
got $12. 500.
William Gettler, a bookkeeper, was
alone in the bank when the man in
woman's clothes entered and covered
him with a revolver, then signalled
to the other two. who came in and
cleaned out all the money in the
vault.
AS the trio turned to run to their
automobile, Gettler stepped on bur-
glar alarm uder the counter. In
answer, merchants along the street
armed themselves and opened fire.
The bandit in woman's clothes fell
with blood squirting from wound
in his chest.
The other two paused long enough
to throw the mans body into the
tonneau of their touring car and then
sped west, with quickly organized
posse in pursuit.

Los Angeles. Dec. 20.-Roscoe Ar

of his encounter with the law, was

against the actor were to end jan

The Famous Players-Lasky corpora

be made at present to market some
films that were shown or others that
were never released. Joseph Schenck,
producer, said he would employ Ar
buckle and the latter said he was
thankful for the chance TO work and
would strive TO make good.
Mr.. Hays issued a brief statement
saying he felt every man was entitled
to his chance and that film industry
not only wanted to live and let live,
but 1t wanted to live and help live.
W SudHCt.
Mr.. Hays said: Every man in the
right and at the proper time Is en-
titled to his chance to make good. 1t
is apparent that Roscoe Arbuckle's
conduct since his trouble merits that
chance So far as I am concerned
there will be no suggestion now that
he should not have his opportunity

1T became known apart from the
brief formal utterances that certain
definite features figured in the action
that will allow Arbuckle another OPP
portunity to make good.

First. perhaps, was the fact that
he seems completely chastened and
that his conduct since he was barred

believed that fullest cooperation in

industry would be best advanced by
clearing the slate as far as possible.
Made Clean Pictures.
Again it is known that Arbuckle
never made a picture to which any
exception could possibly be taken, and
he never will. His pictures were not
high art, of course, but they were
always clean and they brought laughs
to millions.
still against it was felt that in as
much that a jury acquitted him from
the charges upon which he was tried.
he is constitutionally entitled to the

right of working at anything he
knows how to work at.

Washington, Dec. 20.-Acceptance
of bid of the Sinclair Crude Oil Pur-
chasing company for purchase of all
royalty oil accruing to the govern
ment in the next five years from the
Salt Creek field, in Wyoming, was an
nounced by Secretary Fall Of the De-
partment of the Interior.
This transaction. he said. marks the
successful completion Of his program
to place Salt Creek crude oil on price
parity with similar oils from the mid
continent field and will bring the gov
ernment 70 to 80 cents more a barrel
for this royalty oil than was received.
under a contract with the shipping
board.
The price differential between the
two fields, which has averaged 81
cents a barrel for the last five yars
and now amounts to 20 cents a barrel
in oil of less than 81 degrees gravity
and 80 cents a barrel on oil of better
than 81 degrees, Is wiped out, as far sa
the government is concerned. by the
Sinclair contract, Mr. Fall declared.
The price range in the midcontinent
field is from 81 40 to s1.60 barrel,
and at the present rate Of produc-
ton, the government receives 10000
barrels of royalty oil daily from the
Salt Creek field. This oil will be sold
at midcontinent prices to the Sinclair
company and the proceeds devided,
as provided by law, 521A per cent 60
ing to the reclamation service, 371s
per cent to the state of Wyoming and
10 per cent to the United States trea-
eury. The secretary said he expected
the production from the field to in
crease materially during the life of
the contract.
Thirteen firms competed for the con-
tract. The Sinclair Crude Oil Pur-
chasing company was described as
one Of the largest purchasers of crude
oil, in the midcontinent field and the
acceptance of it's bid was said to mark
it's entry into the Wyoming field on
