Triple Defense Aims To Halt
 Pilfering Here
Many Caught Past Several Days and Let GO After Being Reprimanded By PrOprietOrs

Somewhat incensed over the brazen efforts of "shoplifters" to carry away merchandise to dis pose of later as gifts or to sell for a profit Waterbury merchants have not only adopted secondary de- fense" against petty theives, but have announced that future cases of theft would result in prosecu- tion.
 Members of the local detective bureau, special policemen employed by department stores and trained investigators provided by a detec- tive agency have joined forces with the merchants in making war on shoplifters.
 Within the past few days nearly a score of women and young chil- dren have been caught in the act of pilfering merchandise. In each case they were taken into the of- flee of the manager of the store and reprimanded. They were asked to leave the store and never patronize it again under threat of arrest.
 Evidently feeling that this act of kindness has not been sufficient deterrent to some women the mer- chants have decided on drastic &C., tions for the remainder of the holiday shopping days. If the clerks fail to detect the parties re- sponsible the merchants expect that detectives, special policemen

JACK DIAMOND TO BE BURIED JUST
 AS HE LIVED
No Church Funeral and No COnsecrated Ground for the Dead Gangster- Search for Killers

New York, Dec 22-CUP)--Bur- ial of Jack Legs" Diamond was planned today without @ church funeral or interment to consecrat- ed ground.
 The widow failed yesterday in her plea for religious services and early today no order had been ob- tained for burial in Calvary ceme- tery as she had hoped.
 Mrs Diamond made tentative plans to remove the body from Diamonds sister-in laws home by noon today. The body may be placed in a vault temporarily.
 Additional floral tributes were received yesterday for the slain gangster. However. the lavish fu- neral display usually associated with & gangster's burial still is lacking. Diamond remains in the $500 coffin. surrounded by flowers estimated to have cost less than $1,0O0.
 Anbany, N. Y, Dec 22-(UP)- Search for solution of the killing of Jack Legs" Diamond today turned to the strangely assorted personnel of the crowd that helped the gangster celebrate at the &C., quitall party in speakeasy here.
 The presence of at least one per- son whom Diamond distrusted was revealed by Frederick M. Broder- ick, sergeant of Watervliet police. The odd link between Frederick and Diamond also puzzled police.
 The sergeant has admitted that he arranged for Marion "Kikf' Roberts to come to Albany upon Diamonds order. and even rented the rooms where "Kikf" lived.
 According to Broderick's story, the man representing himself as 8 New Jersey motor vehicle inspector at the drinking party was unknown to Diamond. Another mysterious character for whom police are hunting Is a man who attended the party dressed as a priest.
 On the heels of these disclosures it was reported that man and woman had been seen entering the rooming house where "Kiki" lived a few minutes before Diamond ended his tryst with the show girl and started on his last ride home. Injection of this mysterious couple into the case served to contradict testimony of witnesses concerning events which preceded the shooting
 Meanwhile police continued the search for Sylvester Hess, compan- ion of Diamond on the ride from Miss Roberts apartment to the | address. Hess and Jack | Storer, taxi-cab driver for Diamond, are the last two known men to | have seen Diamond alive.
 An abandoned automobile, strip | ped of license plates, found near Sullivan county, may | be the one in which Diamonds | killers escaped.
 The machine was reported by | Edward Bernstein, 8510 21st St., | Brooklyn, to have been stolen |
