GREAT crime ring
IS new CHALLENGE
TO CHICAGO POLICE
New and Powerful Coalition
Seen as Touhy and Di||enger
Gangs Merge

Chicago, Dec. 16.-(P,-The menace
Of a new and powerful crime ring
gang hung over the middlewest Sat-
urday, the police said. as they sought
the perpetrators Of two major crimes
in Chicago.
One was the brutal Staying of a po-
lice officer by desperate he ap-
preached to question. and the other
was the daring daylight footing with
Sledge hammers of almost 100 safety
deposit boxes in a closed bank.
In both the name OF one man
John Hamilton-stood out as the con-
Meeting link between heretofore I'M
related gangs, the Touhys and the
Dillingers.
Police said Hamilton had been
identified from photographs by wit
nesses and others as the man who
shot down Detective Sergeant William
Stanley Thursday afternoon in a
North Side garage when the officer
approached him and woman COM
panion. who was captured.
At the same time Joseph Kinch,
custodian of the safety deposit vault
Of the Unity Trust and Savings bank,
identified Hamiltons picture as one
Of the seven desperadoes who spent
most of the afternoon the day before
pilfering the contents Of boxes.
Hamilton. reputed confederate OF
John Dillinger, paroled convict of the
Indiana state penitentiary who was
delivered by pals in q raid on a Jail
Ia Lima, O.. during which a sheriff
was slain. was one of the prisoners
who broke out OF the Hoosier prison
at Michigan City last September.
The link between the Dillinge1
forces. accused Of series Of bank
robberies in three states since the
prison break. was established, police
said. when Tommy Touhy. Basil
Hugh Banghart. Charles Hce Wagon)
Connors and Frank (Porky> Dillon
had been partially" identified al
members Of the bank robber gang.

the hand off. but to show partner a
strong five-card suit or better.
When North goes to three dia-
nonds. he is, in a way, making a mild
slam try. He is asking South if he
has fit in that particular suit.
When South holds fit in the suit,
he should show it with a bid of four
TO trump. With this information,
North goes to six no trump.
The Play
Against six contract, am not
inclined to open the fourth best of
my longest and strongest suit. If you
are a fourth bester" and open the
seven of hearts, the declarer will make
his contract. while if you open either
Of your doubletons, the contract will
be defeated.
When the seven of hearts is open
I'd. the declarer wins with the king,
runs off five club tricks and four dia-
,nonds. forcing East to bear down to
the king and jack Of spades and the
ace of hearts. The jack of hearts
then is led.
J, East is thrown into the lead with
the ace and now must lead away from
his king and jack Of spades into de-
clarer's tenace-the queen and seven
being on the board and the ace and
nine in the declarer's hand.

T0WNLEY'S PROGRAM
OUTLINED IN THEORY
AT CAPITAL HEARING
Chief Question Raised So Far
Is That Of Satisfactory Sc.
curity for Loan

Washington, Dec. 16-(AP)-The
North Dakota plan Of economic self
sufficiency was outlined in theory to
public works officials Friday. but the
practical aspects remained for q pro-
per formal application for funds.
The chief problem presented was to
provide satisfactory security for q re-
quested loan Of IS .000, 900. This sum
Is wanted to set up a chain Of mills.
factories and processing plants owned
and operated by the state, to convert
the states farm products into food,
clothing and fuel.
The delegation Of North Dakota
farmers was not prepared to submit
plans and specifications for the pro-
posed plants, nor was 1t in a position
to pledge officially the security Of the
state. A. G. Townley, Nonpartisan
League leader, who sponsored the
plan and marshalled the delegation.
confined his plea to what he termed
the principle" leaving the details
Of application through legal and Of
fetal channels for later discussion.
The delegation was handicapped by
the lack Of official state representa-
ton. Gov. LANCER had sent word he
would try to be present, but. just be-
fore the hearing. telephoned from IL
linois that speaking engagements had
delayed him and he would not be able
to get here until Saturday or Sun
dav Until he arrivAs Tnwniev told
