levying taxes on motor trucks are
insufficient, members of the North

two men near Dayton, O., and that
they told him they were going to St.
Louis. One of the men rode in the

road in the rear seat Of the sedan.
They appeared to be all right and
there was never any indication on

from Dayton that they had any in
tention of robbing him, he said.
All three men got out at the Ath-

and were getting ready to go back
to the car and resume their trip
when the two strangers set upon
Barton, beating him over the head.
Barton was suffering from several
deep gashes when he was brought to

That the men went through Bar
toms clothes in search Of money on
other valuables was indicated by the
finding of a 50-cent piece and a knife
near where he lay on the ground.
These were identified by Barton as
his property.
Barton was still confined to ST..

was reported his injuries are not Sc
