BANKERS DIRECT
WAR ON CROOKS
Rising Crime Wave and Attacks
on Banks Called Forth In
creased Measures OF
Defense.

Criminal activities against banks
have reached unprecedented proper
lions in recent months, according to
report made to the American Bank
ers Association by It's Protective
Committee, which directs the work of
the Association aimed to combat Grim.
inal operations against banks.
"Sharp increases in crime perpe
trated against banks definitely prove
that instead Of being broken the
crime wave has risen to heights here
tofore unknown to the banking fra
ternity," the report said. strangers
continue to trick or otherwise in
veigle unsuspecting banks into max
| ing generous contributions to their
cause-a terrific toll which defies the
| imagination. Bank burglars and hold
| up men have apparently redoubled
their activities during the last six
months. The number of criminals
plying their trade in this field has
grown to such proportions that there
is now fair sized army comprising
this more desperate type of criminal,
specializing against banks"
Don't cash checks for strangers"
is the warning emphasized by the
Committee in view of the situation
1t adds:
I'VE are gratified to report favora-
Bile results in a good proportion of
cases investigated, which are due to
the nationwide activities of our de-
tective agents through their staff of
specialists in bank crimes. In Mon
tana two fearless, we'll organized
bands of professional yeggmen attack
ed more than score of banks with
such reckless abandon that the situa-
ton seemed beyond control Realiz-
ing that conditions demanded prompt
and drastic treatment, trained crew
of operatives were delegated to con-
duct a special investigation through |
out the state. Nineteen men and two |
women were arrested. Of these four |
already are serving sentences, three |
are on trial, four are awaiting trial
and the rest were freed for lack of
evidence.
"a similar roundup was carried out
in Oklahoma. Conditions in other
otdtSS SllHlldlly Ddu were luFeSll-
gated and with the cooperation of To-
cal, state and federal authorities and
the co-ordinGted activities of men,
hers the parcsntaep of arrests and
has materially increased"
The report pointed out that figures
covering bank burslaries over a Pc
-iod of thirty years showed that 1,609
banks, members of the Association
and entitled 10 its protective services,
lave been attacked suffering losses
lggregating S1,196.000. while non
members to the number of 1887 we're :
and suffered S4.250, 900 in
osses. The point was also brought
tut that there are only half as many
as members, so that
hese losses among them represent an \
high rate as compared
With members.

Want Arraignment
 to De Held Ouer

GREAT FALLS, Mont, Aug. 30 Answering the charge that his action in arraigning Senator Wheel CT for Sept. 1 on an indictment from the Department of Justice using it as an adjunct to the Republican Ma tional comittee, U. s. District Attor- ney J. Is. Slattery said it would be unnecessary for Wheeler to appear on that date but to make the matter clear he was willing to adjourn the arraignment and trial until after election.
 Representative Nelson of Wiscon- sin, campaign manager for LaFol- iette and Wheeler said the attempt to have Wheeler's trial before election when he is planning his campaign was an attempt to prostitute the pro- cess of justice for political purpos- es. He pointed out that Wheeler had been exonerated by the Senate in any oil connection.
