ELABORATE H|-JACK|NC
 PLOT F0|LED BY A
 STRING ALARM, FLOOR

SAN FRANCISCO, June IA. - Authorities were delving feveriSh- ly into one of the most elaborate hi-jacking plots in local history. A plot which, if successful, would have removed more than $100,000 worth of high grade liquors from United States bonded warehouse.
 A slender piece of string, stretch ed across the floor of the plant, frustrated the plot at the exa t moment when the hi-jackers had completed their extensive prepara- tions and were about ready to be- gin operations.
 The string tripped a burglar that brought horde of police, prohibi- tion agents and private detectives swarming into the place.
 ,Appar aware that their careful planning had been over thrown, the hi-jackers fled in such haste that they abandoned trucks and equipment valued at approx imately $35,0o0
 A portable lighting system was installed throughout the four story building; field telephone system was plugged in and stretched from the tr rucks on the ground floor through the elevator shaft to the store of liquor on the fourth floor.
 Hundreds of feet of construction hose, connected to two centrifu- gal pumps, were strung beside the telephone wires.
 Then the hi-jackers were ready to transfer more than 5000 gal Ions of brandy from the casks above to more than a hundred 50 gallon barrels on the trucks.
 Before the pumps were set in motion, member of the gang in advertantly set off the burglar alarm, by striking a string which was stretched between the rows of casks. -

HULL sUNKEN LINER
 YIELDS $45,O00 BULLION

BREST, France, June 1.-The stubborn hull of the sunken liner Egypt, clinging to $5,000, ,00O in gold and silver bullion these 10 years, today yielded $45,ooo to Genoese divers. Fifteen lives and two strong ships have been lost in the two year quest for the metal by an Italian salvaging crew.
 Today's haul apparently herald ed ultimate victory. The Egypt was sunk in a collision in 1922 at a point 40 miles off Brest. Two years ago the Italian salvage ship Artiglio gave up an attempt to get the bullion and turned to another wreck in the harbor here.

FEvER|sH ACTIVITY
 TOWARD WET PLANK

CHICAGO, June 14, (P)-Work- ing against time the administration forces frantically hewed the pro- hibition resubmission plank into final form with the Wavering hope 1t will lead the Republican party safely past the threat of the most tumultous platform battle of the century.
 Party leaders are awaiting the unequivocal approval by President Hoover of resubmission of declara- tlon before going into action against a repeal campaign of un- determined proportions. The ad- ministration proposal sane ions resubmission with a call to Con- gress to provide support for the amendment, guarding the wishes of those States desiring to remain dry.
 The presumption was that the plank will be acceptable to Hoover. Several of his cabinet members were in an all-night conference drafting it.

 VICTORY, FIRST ROUND

WASHINGTON, June IA. With 10000 ragged, wet and muddy vet erans here as living appeal for their 100000 buddies of the World War, the House answered Monday, by voting 226 to 175, to consider the $40O, 100000 cash bonus bill.
 The dens of the bonus expedi- tionary forces encamped in the city of shackS on the outskirts of the city went mad with joy as the news reached them that they had won their first round of the battle that brought many of them across the continent.
 While the majority of 51 by which bonus advocates in the House forced the bill to direct vote was impressive, it fell 124 short of the necessary two thirds to pass the measure over the ex- pected presidential veto.

 Max had a pretty good left last year, but he used it most at short range, with a hook. Now he is back from Germany with really educat- ed left, and Jacobs says that left is going to cause Sharkey a lot of grief.
 Max has been using the left on his sparring partners. They are short bouts and each sparring part ner retireS to the showers with a bloody nose and perchance, puffing eyes or two. This fills Jacobs and McCarney with joy.

INVESTIGATION WILL BE MADE INTO PROCEDURE
 0F POLICE METHODS

ALPINE, N. J. June IA. -Reper- cussions, state and international, rumbled in the distance Monday as state police investigation into the Lindbergh ba by kidnapping and murder reached an apparent dead end and Gov. Harry Moore came to the defense of the police hand ling the case.
 An investigation into the police tactics in the case was said to be a virtual certainty by state Sena- tor Emerson Richards, republican leader. He asserted the case has been slaughtered to make a demo- cratic holiday.
 Meanwhile, in london, labor members of parliament, aroused by the suicide of the English waitress, Violet Sharpe, in the Morrow home last week, signified an intention to ask the Britis h government to make representations to the Unit ed States government over the sui eide.
 Newspapers there expressed in- dignation against New Jersey po- lice, some accusing them of driv- ing the girl to commit suicide by their insistent questioning.

HOOVER DESIRES T3
 REsUBM|T DRY QUESTION

WASHINGTON, D. c. June IA. = President Hoover has been convert ed to the idea of a plank in the Republican platform submitting the question of the Eighteenth amend ment to a vote of the people but he is firmly opposed to plank recommending the repeal of prohibi- tion, it was learned.
 The press was advised on unin- peachable authority in administra- ton circles that the president will run for reelection on a resubmis- sion plank if one is adopted at Chi cago.
 The president feels however, it is stated, that the fight now rests between advocates of a repeal of the amendment and those favoring resubmission of the question.

.G. 0.P, CONVENTION STRAINS FOR WHITE
 HOUSE GUIDANCE

CHICAGO, June IA. A raucus Republican Convention, straining for White House guidance on the prohibition and vice presidential issue will open here today to re- nominate President Hoover to bat tie with gusto over it's liquor plank and sing it's best challenge to the Democrats.
 Still wing for prohibition for first place in the quadrennial goS- sip race is talk of dropping the ven erable Vice-President Charles Cur tis. Talk that rises and falls as en- ergy ebbs and flows.
 Monday, on the eve of the con- vention the administration group was supplemented by the last con- tingent fresh from Washington and suddenly busied itself to squelch several little upheavals which the administration does not like and try, if possible, to get the feveriSh crowd of elegates in hand.
 They worked in two directions: First. To check the anti-C urti movement which, despite talk of White House disapproval, seems to be gaining strength. Second: To suppress the noisy uprising of the repealists who gathered M o n day with flags flying about the tall and am Hir 100 NShtnegdsna -amiBr handsome Senator Hiram Bing- ham, of Connecticut. He, the son of a missionary, will be the repeal champion in a floor fight that promises to be a thriller.

HARMONIOUS ON THE SURFACE BUT BELOW,
 |S ANOTHER STORY

CHICAGO, June 14, P-In an orderly and almost solemn mood the Republican Convention began as calm and harmonious on the surface as it was divided and dis turbed beneath.
 It paid a quiet and dignified tribute to the flag, then transact ed, without hitch, the fornlali- ties of getting it's committees to work, then sat waiting patiently for the temporary chairman, Sen ator L. w. Dickinson, to conclude 8 long keynote speech which was cheered but little.
 Senator Dickinson called for the reelection of President Hoover as the dependable means toward res toration of normal conditions. He rapped the Democrats then re- viewed the steps taken against the depression on a hun dre d fronts" but steered clear of the thorny prohibition issue.
 The real convention work begins late today in the committees as the platform makers begin to wrestle with prohibition. It hopes to have that finished by tomor- row night, renominate Hoover on Thursday and be enroute home Friday.
 The convention, as assembled, heard that Hoover was still con- sidering compromise on pro- posing resubmission it also heard rumblings against the renomina- tion of Chas. Curtis and a real boom seemed in progress for c. Dawes. Some still think he would get it and would accept.
 Senator Dickinson talked to the restless delegates and a half-fill- ed gallery about almost everything but prohibition. The passive faces of the delegates testified to the fact they were pre-occupied with other things than party principals.
