Alvey Believed to Have
Promised to Shield His
AbductorS.
~ the Associated Press.

ny tue ASSoClatcu EiSSS'
LOUISVILLE, KY. December T.
Belief that a gamblers word rs as
good rs gold" and that Ed Alvey,
wealthy bookmaker and gambler, held
captive So hours this week by kidnapers,
viii keep a promise made TO his abduc-
tors that he would not seek them TO-DAY
looned as a strong barrier to the ofnciaI
Investigation by Louisville police.
Soon after Alvey's return Col. Roy w.
Easley. chief OF police, announced that
the department would ctrtinue the IN
vestigation and that ai.estS were IN
prospect.
Nothing New" Announced.
Yntimates of Alvey yesterday declared
she bookmaker'S word to be good as
gold" and this was partly substantlated
late last night when Col. EaSley admit
ted that Alvey had failed to come to
police headquarters to aid investigators
The chief, apparently chagrined over
Alyev's indifference. announced there
was nothing new" in the case and
declared that unless the bookmaker
comes to police headquarters or shows
a disposition to aid by Friday he would
write Alvey formal invitation to do
SO lin order to get the matter in the
police records" This declaration was
construed as an indication that unless
Alvey aids. police may suspend the
investigation.
Pay RumOrs Renewed.
Meanwhile, the assertion today by the
Courier journal that Ed Alvey paid or
promised to pay a ransom of between
$4,000 and $4,000 to his abductors"
focused additional interest on the case
and renewed rumors that king Ed
had paid Off"
The newspaper added that "a man
high in oficial police circles declared
that one of Alvey's ,kidnapers, known as
Harry, had been identified by police.
The Courier Journal said that
Harry" was known as leader of gang
and was in charge of a raid several
months ago on a. suburban gambling
house. In which $4,000 was taken after
several rounds had been fired by q
machine gun.

Fal.e Economy

It would seem high time to put less stress on the word careless" and more emphasis on the fact that Americans are practicing false econ umy but not erecting fire-safe build ings. A search of the records will disclose that 1t has been not so much earelessncss Us poor building cons structi0n which has caused serious loss of life in this country ia the last two years. In many of the recent large fires a few hundred dollars spent on equipment or construction would have prevented the loss of hu- man lives and thousands of dollars.
 As an illustration of this, report of a recent large fire in New York read that ''the fire was of small pro portions and ordinarily should have caused only a moderate amount of damage" Further on there were re- ferences to unprotected cast iron columns, open vertical shafts, unen- closed stairs and elevators. The fire had spread from the basement to the eighth floor before it was discovered. This fire means a loss of S400,000; {; present estimates indicate some such figure The average dwelling can have fairly serious fire without cost ing more than $400. It would take 1 900 such dwelling fires to equal the loss of this one building.
