Insurgent Headquarters Say Ad-
vances in South Have Cov-
eminent Worried

The Brazilian revolution has gone
into its eleventh day, with available
reports indicating the federals thus
far have the edge in military oper-
atoms.
Federal sources claim victories in
all sectors and particularly on the
200-mile Sac Paulo-P arana front, in
the large state of Minas Geraes and
in eastern Rio de Janeiro.
Government troops are credited
with two victories in upper Rio de
Janeiro which remove a menace from
the federal capital. while troops of
President Washington Luis continue
to march through Minas Geraes, one
of the first three states organizing
the revolution.
Victories in the Sac Paulo-P arana
sector are claimed in more than q
dozen towns, with the rebels gradu-
ally being forced southwark In Par
ana. This removes immediate danger
to the large city Of Sac Paulo, the
first goal of the southern revolters..
Insurgent quarters continue to
make general statements, saying that
advances of the southern revolu-
tionaries have the federals badly
worried. The rebels predict that q
decisive battle In the Sac PAulo-Par-
ana region will be fought today or to-
morrow.

CHEATED

WHO dies IN BED
Notorious Bank Robber and Kill
or Succumbs to Injuries Re-
ceived Yesterday

Springfield, Mo-, Oct. 15.-(R)-
Jake Fleagle, notorious bank robber
and killer, shot yesterday at Bran
son, Mo-, when captured by a posse
Of officers, died in a hospital here to-
day at 9:55 a. m.
Fleagle was the leader of a bandit
gang which obscured its trail by ruth
less murders.
His capture ended a nation wide
manhunt, begun when his band of
desperadoes looted the First Nation
al bank of Lamar. Colo. May, 1928,
In a robbery which has led to seven
deaths.
Fleagle was rushed to the Baptist
hospital here and placed on the oper-
ating table but efforts to save his life
failed. He had asked that his moth
er. living on q ranch near Garden
City, Kas, be rushed to his side.
The wounded outlaw found suffi-
cient strength to plead with H. D.
Harper, chief Of police Of Colorado
Springs, to do something for Fred"
his brother, on trial for a Larned,
Kas., bank robbery. Fred, he said,
was innocent.
Throughout the night officers ques-
toned the rapidly sinking man about
cores of bank and train robberies
with which his name has been linked
In a dozen states.
Just before he died Fleagle ad-
mitted he had been hiding in the
Ozarks for a year, living in an elab-
orately furnished cabin eight miles
south of HOLSTER. In the lake coun-
try near Branson where the bandit
was captured. y
Officers found five guns In the
cabin and a quantity Of ammunition.
Teagle. who was conscious until
about five minutes before he died,
asked that all the furniture and per-
sonal effects IN the cabin go to his
mother. Asked II he had any money
hidden, he declined to answer.
Another OF Gang Captured
Joe Miller. of the Fleagle gang
and close associate of the dead out
law, was captured at Las Vegas, New
Mexico, yesterday. federal officers
here revealed today.
Miller, was taken by officers at Las
Vegas a short time after F1eagle was
shot at Branson. Miller had been
under close surveillance for some
time, the officers said, and Fleagle's
capture was the signal for his arrest.
Federal officers announced here to-
day that DR.. George O. de Moss had
been arrested this morning at
Streator, ILL.,, as a participant In post
office robbery at Tracey. Calf, led
by Fleagle.

After Fifteen Months

Utica, N. Y, Oct. 15.-R)-C. G.
league, a member Of the federal farm
board, told a meeting Of farmers here
today the greatest assistance to asri-
culture that can come from federal
and state aid is the gradual develop
ment Of a system Of grower-owned
and controlled marketing.
This conclusion, he said, was one
of a group of fundamentals" which
the board has laid down for its guild
ance after its is months Of study asri-
cultural problems.
He pointed out that development
of cooperatives cannot be accom-
plished without interference With ex-
isting agencies and expressed hope
the necessary readjustment may be
brought about with as much consid-
Grafton for existing agencies and IN
vestments as possible"
Teaque listed three other conclu-
sions that are becoming even more
clear to the board" That all Of the
problems of agriculture will never be
solved by legislation. That stabiliza-
ton corporations to deal In surpluses
are only warranted in cases Of emer-
gency and must be approached with
the utmost care or more harm may
be done than good. That the law OF
supply and demand can not be light
ly set aside"
In spite Of the suffering caused
farmers by the decline In industrial
stocks league declared. "the organ.
zation OF ~cooperatives has been
Zreatlys1Ccelerated by the very evast-
snce Of this depression.
when farmers are In their great
est adversely" he said, they recog-
nize the necessity Of securing control
of the marketing Of their products
and are much more prone to act col
lectively than they are during more
prosperous times. when their products
meet with a more ready sale at good
prices"
AS outstanding examples Of cooper
alive enterprises that flourish in spite
of depression, he cited the California
citrus and walnut industries and the
dairy industry of the nation. These
three groups, largely controlled by
cooperatives, have been able to mer-
chandise their products as success
fully as In former years, he said.

said the decisive phase Of the battle
along the Parfana-Sao Paulo frontier
would come today or tomorrow.
