EIGHT DEAD AND 10
INJURED IS TOLL OF
new MEXICO WRECK
Board of Inquiry to Investigate
Plunge of Crack Train
Into Arroyo

Tucumcari, N. NJ, Aug. 30.-(R)-1n
flooded arroyo, usually dry, the
Golden State Limited lay Wednesday,
mute evidence of the tragedy which
took eight lives and injured more
than tWo-score.
Repair crews waited for abatement
1t the torrent to salvage the wrecked
cars and repair the bridge while a
board of inquiry was called to investi-
gate Tuesdays early morning wreck.
The board will be composed of rail-
load officials and members of the New
Mexico state corporation commission.
Physicians cared for about IS of
the injured here in hospitals or hotel
rooms. Most of those able to travel
left Tuesday night for the East on a
special tran made up here and routed
via Dalhart, Tex. Two of the VIC
TINS still were unidentified.
The train was proceeding slowly
about five miles from here in heavy
rain. Then, as survivors tell it, there
was sudden lurch as the engine and
five cars of the 11-coach train toppled
off the trestle and piled up in the
torrent. The engine was buried deep
in mud and water.
Chauncey Depew, conductor of the
train, escaped from one of the rear
coaches which had remained safely
on the track and made his way
through the storm, over rain-soaked
roads. to summon aid from Tucum-
carl.
The concrete and steel bridge, 100
feet long, spanned the arroyo at q
point where the bed is approximately
40 feet deep. Residents of the vicinity
said wall of water about 80 feet high
had swept down the arroyo, after a
cloudburst in the "Malpais"-
lands-upstream. Unknown to the
engineer, the eastern section Of the
bridge had been carried away.
Railroad officials said the line
probably would be opened to traffic
about 10 a. m. (M.S.T), Friday. They
said the coaches in the arroyo would
lave to be cut in half before they
could be removed because their loca-
ton IN relation to the remaining
track made it next-to-impossible to
lift an entire car.

IN view of the actions of our state

the mass movement to re-employ job
less workers and create billions Of new
purchasing power under the sign OF
NRA's Blue Eagle.
Hugh S. Johnson, after being tied
to his desk for days on end by critical
problems Of the industrial control
movement, himself took the field to
deliver at Boston major address OF
this weeks windup campaign for
plastering the country's store windows
with the red, white and blue poster
of cooperation.
I'VE can scarcely realize that per-
haps 1000. 900 have been removed from
the ranks Of the unemployed and are
again self-supporting citizens" was
Johnson's estimate as he spurred on
the door-to-door work of the volun-
teer army of million and more men
and women busy up and down the
land explaining the NRA agreement
and obtaining pledges of support.
Using the 100000 figure, Johnson
said it represented at least 30,O00, 900
more in pay envelopes each week. But
not until after Labor Day, with its
objective OF 5000 900 new jobs. will the

johnson told newsmen regarding the

tolls were used In the spectacular raid,
which took place in front of the local
postoffice.
AS the bandit car swept to a quick
stop In view of the two officers and
the bank messengers, Joseph Hamil-
ton and Herbert Cheyne, a huge
cloud of black smoke came from the
rear of the car.
Witnesses said the smoke obscured
the movements OF the bandits as
they alighted. They were unable to
tell whether it came from the inte-
rior OF the car through explosion of
smoke bombs, or the exhaust. due to
something having been placed in the
gasoline.
Messengers Fl Years Old
The bank messengers, both 81 years
old, had been at the local railroad
depot to receive the money for the
Stockyards National Bank. It had
come from the Federal Reserve Bank
in Minneapolis for distribution to
Swift g. Company employees.
Accompanied by Pavlak, Hamilton
and Cheyne went from the station
to the postoffice, less than a block
away. Yeaman had gone down the
street to park his automobile, and
returned later.
The bandit car pulled up to the
curb as the messengers and Pavlak
came down the postoffice steps car
rying the money in satchels. AS the
smoke came from the car one bandit
shouted, stick 'em up"
Hamilton said Pavlak threw up his
hands without attempting to reach
for his gun.
Two or three men hurried toward
the messengers, who were ordered to
throw down those bags"
Hamilton said they dropped the
satchek and threw up their hands.
One raider held shotgun against
Pavlak and another took his gun
from him.
Uses Machine Gun
In the meantime 'Yeaman hurried
toward the postoffice and shooting
began. One bandit, who jumped
from the sedan with what witnesses
described as q machine gun, stood
in the center OF the street in front OF
the postoffice and pivoting 1t, held
observers at bay. Police said they
believed his weapon was a sub-ma-
chine gun.
The street was raked by gunfire as
shooting went on and nearby win
dows were broken. Pavlak fell,
wounded fatally, and Yeaman suf-
fered serious slug wounds.
Firing continued as the bandits
hurried to their car and sped away.
Witnesses said one of the bandits
may have been wounded. They saw
him stagger during the shooting, and
be helped into the car by another.

Dor Is alive to the times, that they
are intensely concerned about efforts
being made toward unemployment by
national recovery officials.
incidentally, it may be stated that
morale OF the unemployed and par
tally unemployed is undergoing mark
ed improvement; men are taking a
greater interest in their own welfare
than was the case a few months ago.
Business and industry must not
fail them now. Such failure on the
part Of business and industry in North

the national recovery act might re-
suit IN serious reactions.
1.-The North Dakota Federation of
Labor stands pledged to do everything
in Its power to aid and assist in this
national recovery. It's members are
now serving on all important state

foes in Louisiana, the senator de-
manded that photographers in the
hall be elected, and they were.
I'm Louisiana" he shouted, 1--WE
don't stand for thieves, rascals, and

Turns To Patronage
He said he was not at all worried
about the question OF patronage con-
