CENTS IN CALIFORNIA

Los Angeles, April Is. The gas

in Southern California when the Pan
American Petroleum company an
nounced a cut Of 2 cents a gallon, its
third reduction since it opened a
campaign against competitors Week
end motorists happily began to fill
tanks with gasoline costing .1215
cents.
One month ago general readjust-
ment lowered retail gasoline prices
Of all companies selling in Southern
California from 1874 to 1611 cents a
gallon A few days later Pan-Amer-
lean undercut its competitors cents
and Edward L. Doheny, head of the
company, announced that it was "a
fierce battle for gallonage"
Pan-American alone enjoyed the
benefits Of the low price for fort
night when its main competitors
came down to the 1415 cents price.
This reduction by Standard Oil Of
California, Shell Union. California
Petroleum and RichfieId, took place
two weeks ago.

INDIANA ADDING
NEW INDUSTRIES
C. of C. Report Shows Gain
Despite Depression.

An unusually large number of i'm
portant industrial enterprises has
been brought to Indiana the first
quarter of 1927, through the equal
ization Of freight rates on furniture,
iron, steel and petroleum products,
a State Chamber of Commerce OFF,
cial reported today.
w. II. Arnett. Chamber manager,
reported an improved condition in
basic industries that warrants an OPP
timistic summer and fall business
outlook despite the apparent depres-
sion in certain lines.
Resistance to increased tariffs on
pig iron, metal furniture, sand, and
other raw materials, have, in the
same period, served to maintain the
competitive strength of factories al
ready operating in Indiana, the
Chamber announced.
With reduced rates on iron and
steel now effective, bringing carrying
costs of both raw material and fin
ished products to the low level that
abtains in competing areas. the mar
kets for Indiana manufacturers have
been conserved and further selling
opportunities opened up.

A quick gasp escaped Charley as
he started back. His right hano
leaned to a holster beneath his left
arm. Don got a glimpse of a heavy
revolver gripped in 1.-THE fingers.
''Beat it, Don-up tn stairs
duick!''
The words shot from one corner
of his mouth. The next instant the
sharu crack of a pistol sounded be-
yond the partition. This was tol-
lowed swiftly by another, a still
sharper report from the gun in
CosteIlo's hand. A stream of fire
flashed before Don's eyes. He heard
excited voices and the scrape OF
rhairs. Then again came the cry
from his friend.
''Beat it, damn it all-get outta
here! Helrs loose! That's Nick
valetti an his gang in there! I
got i'm, guess! C'mon"
He Ieaped as he spoke across to
The door through which they had
entered the basement. Don followed
close on his heels. Almost before the
two reached the top of the stairs a
chorus of shots ratified from below.
Don felt the impact of a sharp blow
lust under his left shoulder blade.
He heard a coughing grunt at his
side. Then:
"Around TIL corner! Make for
Bino's fruit store. TIL gangn fol-
low us-sure!'
The two dashed through the rear
exit. AS they turned into k
street Don saw Teddy standing In
front of the store at the alley. He
tried to shout to her-to tell her
to 20 back to the office. Costello,
running at his side, was breathing
heavily. They reached the entrance
to Bino's.
I'm herew gasped the young
gangster and signalled to Teddy. She
followed them instantly into the
store. A slender, darkfaced man
dropped a bunch of bananas he was
carrying and stared.

briefly and waved his hand toward

The basement in which they found
themselves was dimly lighted by an
incandescent globe. Staggering
drunkenly across the cement floor,
Costello grasped the bottom of what
appeared to be an iron ventilator set
in the wall. He jerked it toward him.
With the motion a section of the
cement floor some four feet wide and
six feet long swung on a pivot re-
vealing an opening leading to regions
