Blood From Parent Fails to
Save Farmer, Shot
in H0idup.

Gift of quart of blood by his
feeble father failed to save Gordon
Yarling, 81, farmer bandit. He died
at city hospital Sunday night,
twenty-four hours after five bullets
had been fired into his body when
he attempted to rob filling station
at Delaware street and Fit. Wayne
avenue.
The robber had expressed desire
to die. His father, Jacob Yarling,
SO, Shelby county farmer, was with
him when the end came, fearful Of
the effect the tragedy might have
upon the wife and mother, suf-
ferer from heart disease.
Shortly after 10 Saturday night,
Gordon Yarling, described by his
father as a model son, entered the
filling station with the command:
Stick 'em up. I want everything
you've got in the safe"
Shot Five Times
Alvin Schellschmidt, ST, Of 2244
North Talbot street, father of the
operator of the station, was on
guard with a revolver, concealed be-
hind newspaper he appeared to be
reading.
At the bandits command, Schell-
schmidt fired, and Yarling fell. He
shot once, the bullet grazing the
other mans foot, and Shellschmidt
fired four more times. Every shot
took effect.
Yarling was shot once in the
abdomen; twice in the left shoulder
and the other two bullets struck
him in the mouth and neck.
TRANSMISSION was resorted to, owing
to the heavy loss of blood suffered
by Yarlirg, whose intestines were
punctured.
Earlier Saturday night Yarling
robbed filling station at New
Jersey street and Massachusetts ave-
nue., taking $25 from the attendant,
Charles H. Martin, %, of 1049 South
State avenue. A few weeks ago he
robbed the younger Schelschmidt of
$65.
Ambulance Is Wrecked
Removal of the wounded man to
the hospital was delayed when a
city hospital ambulance was
wrecked. The driver, Michael Davis,
suffered slight injuries.
The three robberies were the only
ones in which he participated,
Yarling said in a deathbed state
ment. He asserted he had no &C
completes.
AS the son lay dying, the father
recalled that three years ago he
gave up a position in Shelbyville
to return to the farm and help his
father, whose health had failed. The
son went to Shelbyville Saturday
morning to sell eggs, according to
the father, leaving word that it
might be late when he returned.
Nothing further was heard from
him until the father was called by
telephone to the hospital, following
the shooting.
Police exonerated Schellschmidt
Of blame in the tragedy and praised
him for preventing a robbery.

GERMANS RIOT
OVER DOOMED
BROWN SHIRTS
Five Hitler Party Members
Sentenced to Die for
Staying Red.
BV United Press


BERLIN, Aug. 22-Five members
of Adolph Hitler's Brown Shirt mi
litia were sentenced to death for the
murder of Communist today by a
special anti-terrorist court at Beu-
then, Silesla.
The death sentences were the first
under the emergency decree, ap-
proved by President Won Hindenburg
Aug. 8, to curb political rioting, and
caused a sensation throughout Ger
many.
The Communist, named Peitzruch,
was killed early Aug 9, the day the
decree became effective, at the viii
lage of Potampa, Silesia.
The Hitler storm troopers sem
fenced to death were Paul Lach-
mann, condemned as the instigator
of the murder; Reinhold Kottish,
August Graupna, Hans Muller and
Ruin Volunteer.
Another defendant, George Hop
pou, was sentenced to two years
Imprisonment, and three others
were acquitted.
Fire or Clear Streets
News of the death sentences
spread quickly throughout Beuthen
and an angry mob Of Nazis gath
cred at the courthouse, threatening
TO storm the building, and hberate
the condemned men.
Police, equipped with rifle and
steel helmets, encountered resist
ance and fired to clear the streets.
The Nazis were dispersed, at least
temporarily, at the courthouse,
but ran through. the streets smash
ing windows of Jewish stores.
They attacked the plant Of the
local Socialist newspaper and the
leading Catholic newspaper of
upper Silesia. Windows were bro
ken and other property damaged.
Heines was taken to Jail. Before
he was removed from the court
room, he shouted, Hail Hitler, ?"
the Nazi battlecry, and shouted with
wild gesticulation, these sentences
will signal Germany's liberation"
Lynching Is Prevented
Police prevented a crowd of Nazis
from lynching a Jewish fruit seller,
who was dragged away from his
cart.
The police rushed through the
streets shouting clear the streets
and shut your windows, or we will
shoot"
The anti-terrorist court hereto
fore had enforced penalties against
only Socialists and Communists, and
had not decreed the death sentence.
The fact that the first death SEN
fences were returned against Nazis
was expected to produce widespread
demonstrations among their fellow
members of the storm troops.

Striking farmers have begun halt
ing trains in their efforts to keep
produce of the market and boost
prices.
Using flares and red lights, farm
ers brought a passenger train on
the Chicago, Milwaukee, st. Paul g.
Pacific railroad to a stop near JEFF

cream in the baggage car, but the
doors were locked and the farmers
made no attempt to force them.
The train was allowed to proceed,
after only short delay.
At Neville, Ia, a freight train
on the Chicago Northwestern rail-
road was held up for an hour while
striking farmers milled around
eleven carloads TO livestock. The
stock was not molested, however,
and the train finally was permitted
to continue.
Meanwhile, an appeal was issued
by Mayor w. D. Hayes of Sioux City
for a conference of Governors of
midwestern states to seek some
means of aiding agriculture. The
farmers, he said, are fighting with
their backs to the wall"
Farmers picketing the highways
searched every conveyance that ap-
peared, including touring cars and
all trucks. One of the trucks was
allowed to pass when search dis

jugs of liquor.
1t was reported that no other

age was caused, because the OUTPUT

LEVIES ON MANY
KINDS OF GOODS
NOW in EFFECT
Increase Of One Cent On
First Glass Postage VIII
Go Into Effect On We'd
mesday, July 9th.

Many Of the new federal taxes went
into effect Tuesday, June II. The re-
vision of the first-class postage rate,
requiring ; cents instead Of 2 cents
on a letter, will go into effect July s.
Among the provisions Of the new
law that became effective Tuesday are
those which place a ; per cent con-
sumers' tax on electric current, 2-cent
tax on bank checks, and a ; per cent
tax on automobiles.
THE law provides ; per cent be
added to eyerybody's bill for current,
whether for light, heat, or power.
Monthly bills carry a water charge,
and sometimes charges for merchan-
disc repairs, so that the additional per-
centage will not apply to the entire
bill. For example, a family may have
a bill for $3.50 for the month of
July; $40 of it may be for an electric
range and lights, and the other $3.50
for water and merchandise; in that
case, the tax added to the bill will be
80 cents 6 per cent of $10).'
Cashiers of the various Salisbury
banks had not received positive infor-
nation yesterday as to the way in
which the 2-cent tax on bank checks
was to be collected. One way is for
concerns and persons that have bank
accounts to buy stamps from the bank
and affix them when the checks are
written; another is for the bank to
charge the tax to the accounts of de-
positors. This last method might lead
to complications; for instance, a check
might pass through several hands and
then, when it reached the bank upon
which it was drawn, there might be
no funds to cover it.
The method Of collecting the 3 per
cent sales tax on automobiles will be
simple. The tax will be added to the
purchase price.
The tax is 2 per cent or automobile
trucks.
The new law imposes excise taxes
on lubricating oil, brewers wort and
malt, grape concentrate, toilet prepa-
r%ations, furs, jewelry, automobiles,
trucks, tires and tubes, radios and
Photographs, mechanical refrigerators,
sporting goods and cameras, firearms,
shells, cartridges, matches, candy,
chewing gum, soft drinks, gasoline,
telephone toll calls for above a GER
tain amount, kilograms by wire or ra-
do, theatre admissions, safety deposit
boxes, and bank checks.
'These excise taxes" says Gillian
Grissom, collector Of internal revenue
in Raleigh, in an information bulletin
issue this week, "are imposed upon
manufacturers or producers, and be-
come effective June IL"
Return forms for the use of new
taxpayers will be sent out in a few
days. All retail dealers in jewelry and
furs should procure forms, since they
may be manufacturers within the
meaning of the law.
