Plea for the local unemployed.
voiced to state highway department
officials by county officials and 9TH
ers Wednesday afternoon, fell upon
rather deaf ears.
The most promised was a survey"
of Marion county roads, upon which
maintenance might be undertaken
by the state, and increased hope for
hurrying to completion of plans for
the proposed 100000 North Meri-
dian street bridge on United States
Highway 81.
Chairman Albert J. Wedeking of
the state highway commission
pointed out that Marion county
roads taken into the state system
must lead somewhere" preferably
being part Of the long projected
circle-urban route.
The route construction has been
abandoned by the state at present,
because it would mean much over
head construction for the railroads,
which are in no condition to pay
for such projects at this time,
Wedeking declared.

 Members of the detective bureau were engaged this afternoon in searching for a youth, who was seen in the armory last evening about g o'clock. The "job" had all the trade marks of his work. It is apparent that the party responsible conceaieu himself in the building early in the evening and after Sergeant James O'Donnell, caretaker, left for the night. ventured forth to make the raid. Sergeant O'Donnell left the building at 11:3O and everything was in order. He discovered the break this morning. The arsenal is located in the basement of the build ing. A paddock on a steel meshing was actually ripped off. poker taken from the boiler room had been inserted in the lock and twist ed around until it gave way. The poker was bent in the effort.
 It was then found necessary to smash a lock on the case where the short arms are stored. Another lock holding secured a rack or tire of twenty revolvers was broken before the guns were freed.
 The thieves emptied cardboard box containing small pieces of cloth used for cleaning purposes and packed thirteen of the revolvers in it. After walking out of the front door of the arinory they placed the box in a little niche of the entrance. 1t was not visible to passers-by on the street and one entering the building would never notice It. me police found it as they were leaving the place. .,.,
 A nasty check-up showed that seven of the guns have disappeared, The police were expected to be in possession of the official registration numbers this afternoon and VIII broadcast warning to the police throughout the state.
