GiDen Long Prison Term

Roy Gardener, notorious train
rObber Of the West, was imprisoned
six years ago In the Arizona state
penitentiary. Shortly after that he
was pardoned by the governor, then
captured again and imprisoned on

of Washington. After six months Of
confinement he, with several other
prisoners, made one Of the most dar-
Ing escapes ever attempted by swim
ming to the mainland. He was later
caught In holdup and, preferring I'm
prlsonment to being guilty Of murder,
by which means he could have escaped,
he was sentenced to % years in an
other federal prison which term he
Is now serving.

 This Morning

Hartford, Dec. UP,-With the sanction of the state board of finance and control received this
 morning. the reorganization Of the state banking department goes into effect today, Lester E. Shippec, of East killingly taking his place as
 state bank commissioner. John E. Byrne who has filled this position since September 2, 1922 began his work today with the Hartford Con- necticut Trust company as it's first vice-presidert. R. Gordon Baldwin of Bristol assistant chiet examiner of the Trust company division in the department since early in 1926,
 was appointed deputy bank commits sioner by Commissioner Shippee this
 morning. The offices of commis- sioner and deputy commissioner, eX- cept for salaries. remain the same under the reorganization plan. but beyond that the set-up is consider ably more epartmentalized.
 The office of chief examiner is dDOllSlleu duu W lllldln IN. NCOtI Ol Hartford, who has held that office since 1924 is promoted to the new office of field director. in charge of all field operations of the depart ment.
 The two offices of assistant chief examiner are also abolished. Harold
 P. Splaine of New Haven. assistant chief examiner in charge of the savings bank division is promoted to assistant to the commissioner, an- other new office.
 The great increase In the business which the department is called upon to handle has made necessary this reorganization. the commissioner explained.

 The responsibility for the routine duties will not accumulate upon the commissioner. In the last year the capital of the banks in Connecticut has increased by four millions. The department is examining more than one bank day.
