$50 far as we can establish,
the bonds were loaned to Hays
as a private transaction, during
the period of Hays losses upon
the Stock Exchange, due to
trading in Sinclair stocks"
Nye said.
New Deal Shown
"He testified briefly upon the wit
ness stand before us 70 the fact
that he has incurred such losses,
and that as a result Sinclair had
given him outright $85, 900 in Con-
tinental Trading Company bonds,
to cover Hays contribution of that
amount to the c.. o. P. fund.
"This new 100000 worth, how
ever, appears to be a transaction
apart from that.
1.-THE committee has not felt like
probing into Hays private business.
But this new discovery certainly is
pertinent, showing as it does, other
transactions between Hays and Sim
clair"
OF the between 100000 and $780,
900 worth of Continental bonds
which Sinclair received as his share
of the Continental Trading Com
pany's profits, the new discovery
accounts for approximately $493, 900.
Money Is Traced
Sinclair gave $293,OOO to Albert B.
Fall, secretary of the interior, from
whom he obtained the Teapot Dome
oil lease. He gave $4,000 as an OUT
right gift to the Republican nations
al committee at Hays solicitation.
He loaned the committee 100000
of the bonds to be used as collateral,
later returned to him. Then he gave
Hays $4,000 in bonds outright, when
it was represented to him that
Hays had pledged that amount of
his own funds to return to Sinclair
the 100000 bonds which Hays had
obtained for the committees use.
The committee has established,
Nye said, that Hays placed the new
100000 bonds with Thompson &c
McKinnon, brokers, to bolster his
New York trading account. The
$4,000 previously had been placed
by j. P. Connery, Hays partner and
friend, in Hays Chicago account,
which also was in precarious condi-
ton.
Solicited Aid for Hays
Connery told the committee at its
Chicago hearing that he had gone
to Sinclair and solicited the latter's
help for Hays, reciting the fact that
Hays finances we're precarious, be-
cause of his losses in Sinclair stocks.
The story, as the committee has
obtained it, is that the brokers,
both in Chicago and New York, were
pressing Hays account for more
margins. Hinkle G. Hays, brother
of Will, telegraphed the latter iss
New York. Hays was in touch with
Sinclair, and, either at the latters
New York Office or at his home at
Great Neck, Long Island, solicited
the loan.
In response to the plea Sinclair
turned over to Hays the 100000 in
First Liberty Loan bond, bearing
80 per cent interest, which Hays
at once rushed to his brokers.
I'VE have established through the
serial numbers that part of these
bonds at least we're Continental
bonds" said Nye. Further inves-
tigation is being made. The COM
mitee had had some limitations
of this state of affairs, but Cur
ley's information given to our in
vestigator, enabled ii to be put in
such shape as to be made public"

Many American Cities to
Be Visited on Continental
Air Cruise.
BY CARL d. GROAT
United Press STAFF Correspondent

MONTREAL, Quebec, April 90
If present plans carry, many Ameri-
can cities will have an opportunity
to see the doughty Bremen which
spanned the North Atlantic from
East to West.
Maj. James Fitzmaurice at Lake
st. Agnes, near Murray Bay, told
the United Press today that pres
ent plans call for a transcontinental
air cruise of the United States
after the New York and Washing
ton receptions.
At the conclusion of the American
air trip the Bremen probably will
visit Ottawa, Montreal, Quebec and
Toronto.
The States cruise will last prob
ably two months and include nearly
all the important cities in the
United States, going as far as San
Francisco, according to present
plans.
Fitzmaurice intimated that the
Bremen might fly back to Europe as
she came-piloted by Fitzmaurice,
Baron Huenefeld and Capt. Herman
Koehl.
Clothes to Be Welcome
These details were made known
as the Ford relief plane sped on its
way from Detroit to Murray Bay to
pick up spare parts, a propeller and
benzol to take to the Bremen at
Greeniy Island.
The Germans at Greenly Island
have been advised by Fraulein
Herta Junkers, field marshal of the
relief expedition, that landing
gear, propeller, oil, benzol, clothing,
food and tobacco are to be sent up
in the Ford plane.
The clothing part will be welcome
news to the Germans, who are re-
ported out of fresh linen.
A wild scramble to get a collar
big enough for Koehl has been pro-
ceeding. Rumors as to the size Of
his neck are many at Murray Bay
and they run as high as size IS.
Woman Directs Work
Chief interest today centered at
Murray Bay. However, the fren-
zied activity has been Gained. When
Fraulein Junkers, whose father de-
signed the Bremen, arrived she took
control.
Tall, clear eyed and dominating,
the young German woman has be-
come a virtual dictator. She has
a gracious way Of giving orders,
which are graciously carried out.
She announced what parts were
wanted, told briefly how eager New
York was to greet the airmen, ad-
vised her compatriots at Greenly
Island that everything was being
fastened to get them out, and
brought a calm to a little COM
munity that had grown eagerly ex-
cited when first it was learned that
Fitzmaurice would come here for
supplies for his companions.

EAST FAILS TO
GET GOLF GAMES
Chicago Is Allotted Many
Interesting Tournaments.

1t has been many long year since
the eastern section Of the United

tournaments. And practically all OF
the tournaments have been awarded.

international matches for the Walker

G. A.
All of which leaves the metropolitan
district, the largest section in the
United States, with no prominent
tournaments except its own local
events, the Metropolitan Amateur and
open. This condition presages rath-
er dull tournament season In these
parts, but, if it does nothing else, it
means lot of action around Boston
and Chicago.
It is doubtful II any section ever
had as many interesting events as
falls to the lot of Chicago this sum-
mer. The Open, the Walker Cup, the
Western Open, Western Amateur,
Western Women's and flock of other
events-that Is unprecedented. 1t
seems as if determined attempt Is
being made to satiate Chicago golfers.
Or else the solons aim to stimulate
interest to fever pitch. 1t is doubtful
which Of the two is correct. Never
theless, the Chicago district is to be
rich in tournaments.
Thus far the only event on the
horizon in the East is the New York
State Amateur, an interesting affair,
but by no means major event. The
public links championship is to be
played on the famous Cobbie Creek
layout, near Philadelphia, but that
still is not In the metropolitan dis

BANDIT CAUGHT
IN AYRES RAID
DENIED PAROLE
TOuhey, Only Gang Member
Captured, Must Stay
in Prison.

Another year must elapse without
parole for Thomas Toughy, 80, the
only one of five gangsters captured
in the $4,000 robbery attempt of the
L. S. Ayres & Co. store in June, 1924.
Touhy was sentenced Dec. II; 1924
to from two to fourteen years for
his part in the affair. The bandits
abandoned their loot.
Last year during the Christmas
holidays his petition for parole was
turned down by the trustees of In
diana State Prison and it met the
same fate this year, according to
Michael E. Foley, member of the
board.
Leisurely Gather Loot
The gangsters forced entrance to
the store about 10 p. m. and took
their time about gathering up the
$4,000 loot of silks and other mer-
chandise. They forced the night
Waterman to punch the A. D. T.
clock on schedule and bound and
gagged employees in the bakery and
other departments employing night
workers.
Three safes were blown.
AS the loot was carried to a rear
door, Touhy remained in machine
ready to transport it.
One of the store employees reached
a telephone about 5 p. m, and called
police. Upon their arrival, the four
men remaining in the store fled to
the roof by elevator and escaped by
leaping to a roof of neighboring
building.
Caught in Sawdust Bin
Toughy fled with policeman in
pursuit and was captured in q saw
dust bin in yard in Maryland ST,
between Illinois st. and Capitol Ave.
The gangsterS were Chicago
trained and have eXerted all pres
sure possible to win release for their
accomplice. However, he will remain
in prison for some time yet, despite
the fact that his minimum sentence
has been served, Foley said.
