AUTO OF BANDITS
 IS DISCOVERED
They Robbed Bank in Mass. of $O,OOO and
 Got Away Yesterday

Quincy, Mass, Dec 5.-UP)- The automobile used by the five bandits who robbed the Wollaston branch of the Quincy Trust com pany of $2O,000 yesterday was found abandoned in the Hyde Park section of Boston early today. The machine, bearing stolen license plates, and fingerprints on the tell CTS desk of the bank were the only clues authorities had to the iden- tity of the robbers. Timing their movements with precision, the men, armed with revolvers and shotguns, entered the bank yester- day while only a teller-a stenog- rapher and one customer were there. The fact that the front windows were frosted prevented passersby from seeing the robbery.
 The suddenness of the holdup caught Warren MacPhail, the tell CT, off guard and he was unable to sound an alarm. Miss Esther An- derson, a stenographer, fainted. A customer, Ernest Martin, was in the safe deposit vault. While the bandits were taking the money from the teller's drawer, Assistant Treasurer Melvin A. Weeden re- turned from lunch and also was lined up. When Attorney John A. Duggan of Wollaston, a customer, entered shortly afterward he either misunderstood or failed to comply with the bandits command to raise his hands and was knocked to the floor with 8 revolver butt.

FIRST MORTGAGE LIQUIDATION BY
 MERCHANTS co
Considerable Amount of Those Bonds Have Been {
 Paid Off By Company

The receiver for the Merchants Trust company has Hquidated $129,37O.98 worth of first mort gages through acceptance of Home Owners Loan Corporation bonds, during the month of November, according to the monthly report filed in superior court today.
 At the beginning of the month the first mortgages totaled nearly g. million and a half but that fig ure is descended by the Home Loan bonds taken in. The re- ceiver will not be able to liqui- date all of its mortgages that way, because the Home Owners Loan of- flee here will only grant loans up to a certain amount, about $15,OOO or S20,O00, while the receiver has mortgages as high as $1O0,00O.
 The receiver also has a motion filed in superior court in which 1t proposes paying depositors off with these bonds by granting the depos- itors 90 per cent value on thefr balances. That motion will some up for hearing on Friday.
 The receivers, expenses for the month were $3,860 in the commer- cial department and $2,076 in the savings. Included in the expenses were tax payments, salaries and the payment of the real estate ac- count to D. T. Harrington, Jr,. for his services rendered the receiver. The report shows the receiver has about $1800,000 in cash on hand at tn end of the month.

 THE ANTI-SALO0N
Westeryille, O., Headquar- ters of League Had
 One Satisfaction

Westerville, O., Dec. 5-(UP)- Peace and quiet reigned today in Westerville, headquarters city of the Anti-Saloon league where the first ting of repeal had been eased by a local option election sclosing the lone beer parlor.
 To Dr William Hyde Russell, aged founder of the league, today's swan song of prohibition signaled only the renewal of crusade.
 The community, by repeated votes on questions involving alcoholic drinks, has affirmed his stand.
 If there is any celebration, it will be locked securely in the privacy of some rebellious house. hold, but citizens do not anticipate even this recognition of liquors re- turn. Since Ohio's enforcement laws have not yet been repealed, officers are fortified against any breaking of the peace.
 pr Russell expressed no interest in today's national formalities. Prayers will be continued here for temperance, the city's ministers said.
 And tonight, Westerville will ob- serve Flights out" many hours be- fore laughter and gaiety have got ten we'll started in wet centers of the land.

NEW YORK SPREE
 TO BE CURTAILED
Legal Liquor Will Be Shut Up in Warehouses By
 Utah'S Delay

New York, Dec. 5.-(UP).-The supply of legal liquor for celebra- tion of repeal in New York will be strictly limited tonight because of Utah's delay in ratification.
 The city's two large bonded warehouses, which will not be al- lowed to move liquor to retailers until repeal becomes effective, will close at 5 p. m. Government ware houses will close at the usual time, 4:30. Liquor from these sources will not be available until tomor- row morning, according to present indications.
 The delay indicated many cele- brants would be forced to use drug store and bootleg spirits, as the supply in private warehouses was limited.
 Liquor stores licensed by the state must close by 8 p. m., an hour before repeal will be effective, New York time.
 At the city's leading hotels. where arrangements had been per fected to get supply of liquor re- gardless of the time of repeal. reservations for celebrations were mainly evening affairs.
 Oscar of the Waldorf said the delay meant simply that i've will wait for word that its all over. We will follow the law to the last letter. We hope that it is over as soon as possibe."
 Victor Eckstein, president Of Luchow's. famous German restaur- ant, deplored the delay and said that repeal seemed to be one disap- pointment after another.
 T don't know what to say, he commented sadly. "After all these years! We have been waiting ana waiting and now they keep putting it off. Watchful waiting, that's all I can say.''

RADIO! SPEECHES DID NOT PLEASE
 REPUBLICANS
Claim That It Is Muzzled By Roosevelt Regime
 to Favor NRA
BY RAYMOND CHAPTER

United Press Staff COrreSpOnOentI
 Washington, Dec. 5 - (UP) = The republican national commit tee, in a formal press release, has charged the administration Is seek ing to establish a dictatorship by muzzling hostile opinion, the press and the radio. In support of its as- sertion, the committee said that there was documentary evidence that radio broadcasting stations had been threatened with loss or licenses unless they censored the use of their facilities in behalf or MIRA. It added that NRA had for two months resisted writing Of re-affirmation of constitutional free press guarantees into the news paper code.
 The assertion concerning the al. legged attempt to influence radio broadcasting in favor of MIRA brought denials from several quar- ters. The national committee did not go into particulars and rested on it's assertion that there was documentary evidence in hand. One republican member of the Federal Radio Commission. Harold A.. LaFount, said: '"That is not cor rect. There has never been any threat or suggestion of it." The committee asserted that supporters of the administration were com pairing the situation to wartime and were demanding implicit obe- dience.
 ."The president is not acting in his capacity as commander-in- chief of the army and navy but as civilian" the committee continued. "The American people thoroughly understand this. That is why they object to the attempt upon the part of this administration to conduct itself along the lines of a dictator ship, stifiing as far as possible all criticism, cracking down on any business or industry which asserts it's right to question the wisdom of certain economic policies, purely political in their origin without be- ing threatened with economic death.'
 The republican national commit tee asserted that prominent Amer jeans had been libelled with epi- thets by high administration off, cials when they branded critics as "tories' "chiselers'', "dead cats, "bankwreckers" and traitors"

 IS CAST ASHORE
Over 100 Feet Long and Was Left on Beach
 Near Chatham

Chatham, Mass. Dec 5.-(UP)-- One of the biggest whales ever to come ashore on Cape Cod-de- scribed as more than 100 feet long was discovered by coast guards high and dry on Monomoy Point today.
 The lookout at Monomoy Point coast guard station who first espied the marooned mammal mistook 1t for a stranded schooner. His spy glass soon told him however that the black object. perhaps mile and a quarter northeast of the sta- tion, was a whale of record size.
 He and other coast guards has tened to the spot. The whale, dead from being out of water several hours, had been washed onto the peninsula by a flood tide whipped up by an easterly gale. It lay per- haps 300 yards from the ocean and several yards beyond the highest normal high tide line.

Chase Bank Official Helped To Beat Glass
Charles s. Mccain, Chairman of the Chase Board, Joined With Senator Long in the Famous
 Filbuster to Beat Senator
BY LYLE c. WILSON ,ited Press Staff COrreSpOndent

'
 Washington, Dec 5- UP) = Charles S. Mccain, chairman of the board of the Chase National Bank, was, linked today in testimony be- fore the senate stock market com mittee with the 21-day filibuster by which Senator Long, democrat, La. prevented passage of the Glass bank reform bill in 1881.
 Senator Glass, democrat, Va, made the complaint against Nc Cain. Winthrop w. Aldrich, chair man of the banks governing com mittee was the witness.
 Tt was at the end of 1882" AL drich said, "that I was convinced you were right and from that time on I have fought the use of aft1l- iates," Aldrich said, referring to the Glass bill provision requiring divorce of. national banks from their security affiliates.
 This is commendable," Glass replied, ''hut nevertheless, MT Mccain came down here-"and threatened us and was offensive"
 He attributed to Mccain and other banking opponents of the bill rart of the responsibility for the 21-day filibuster led by Long. It all but killed the Glass bill but the legislation was revived and finally was passed in the last week of the special session of this year.
 '@The American Bankers Associa- ton and the advisory council of the federal reserve board also took a position against the bill," Glass said. That's the kind of fight we had on our hands down here."
 Banking opposition was directed largely against divorcing security affiliates.
 Charged today in statement to the senate stock market committee that Chase Naional Bank directors violated New York state law in voting a $100,000 annual retire. ment pay to Albert H. Wiggin.
 Glass charge was made in the midst of sharp opposition to pro- posals by Winthrop w. Aldrich, present head of the bank, for strict CT banking legislation.
 Glass said Aldrich was proposing a strait jacket for the banking community"
 Aldrich challenged Glass.
 II venture to say" Aldrich said, "that the $100,00O voted to MT Wiggins was within the law"
