MARKET JUMPS
TONEW HIGHS

NEW YORK. July l 0N.S).
A new crash in the dollar today
sent the stock market surging for
ward / to nearly II points to new
1888 highs.
Dealings were on a tremendous
scale and the ticker trailed
virtually the entire session. Heavy
profit-taking was absorbed
throughout and closing prices
were around the highs of the day.
The new uprush was accom-
panied by sweeping gains in COM
modities. Wheat scared cents
bushel, while cotton retained IS
cents of an early 81 a bale rise.
Bonds were buoyant, led by the
speculative rails.
The days stars were Allied
Chemical and Central Railroad
of New Jersey, both at their highs
up nearly II points. Allied re-
tanned IA points of it's gain and
Jersey Central 11l2. The sudden
settlement of Allied's row with
the stock exchange was behind
the stocks rise as the shorts were
trapped.

Revenge Seen Motive as Mob
of 10 Seizes Promoter; Gems
of Wife Not Disturbed

CHICAGO, July l (I.N.S.).
John ("Jake the Barber")
Factor was kidnapped by a band
of gangsters today, and was
being held either for ransom or
revenge.
Police Immediately linked the
abduction of the millionaire stock
promoter with the kidnapping of
his 19-year-old son, Jerome, last
April.
Didn't Pay Ransom
Factor, through his relentless
search and his friendship with
members of the AL Capone gang,
secured the release of his son
without payment Of the $50,000
ransom.
Police believed that the kid
snapers, piqued at the manner in
which the. financial viva d had
outwitted them, sought retribu-
ton by seizing Factor himself
and demanding an even larger
ransom.
Their theory was borne out by
the disdain of the abductors for
the jewels worn by the women
in the Factor party when the
erstwhile barber was seized. The
jewels were valued at more than
$4,000.
Further, Murray Humphries-
successor to AL Capone as public
enemy No. i, and overload Of the
remnants of the Capone gang,
who organized the underworld
hunt for young Factor, is under
indictment for income tax viola
ton, and is ION the lam'-is in
hiding.
A band of from 10 to IS gang
sterS, riding in two cars and
armed with shotguns and ma
chine guns, seized Factor as he
was leaving a roadhouse with his
son, his wife, AL Epstein, wealthy
lawyer, and a party of friends
early today.
Within an hour of his abduction
Epstein and Jerome Factor had
formed board of strategy" with
headquarters in a luxurious for
tieth-floor Loop hotel suite.
Police Check Gang
There, the wan, spindly, be-
spectacled son, Jerome, his eyes
blood-shot and heavy lidded from
lack of sleep, directed the search
for his father even as his father
had directed the search for the
son four months ago.
Meanwhile, police pushed an in
tensive search for the kidnapers,
concentrating their activities in
the territory dominated by the
Touhy gang-the northwest sec
ton of Cook county.
The Touhy gangsters are arch
enemies of the Capone hoodlums,
ruthless and defiant of both law
and other underworld organiza,
tions.
Since the imprisonment of Al
Capone, the TouhyS have en-
croached on the Capone syndi-
Gates lucrative liquor traffic with
utter disregard for the once all.
powerful Capone machine guns.
