BLOOMINGTON, Ind, July 81
Despite an al-night search by state
police and county officers, no trace
had been found today Of two pris
oners who slugged their way out of
the Monroe county Jail late yester-
day afternoon.
The prisoners, Marvin Roach, q,

suspect in the Amity filling station
hOldup, and Roy Weaver, %, of 407
Chase street, indianapolis, auto
theft suspect, escaped after smuggling
Walter Gillaspy. 81, a guard.
indianapolis police, notified last
night have been conducting a
search in the known haunts of the
fugitives. Both are wanted in In
dianapolis for questioning IN the
$1,000 Omar Baking Company hold
up July 25.
Both fugitives were CHARTERED in
the bull pen of the jail with several
other prisoners. When Gillaspy
opened the door to place some soap
in the bulIpen, Roach and Weaver
forced the heavy iron door open
enough to allow their bodies to pass
through.
Weaver first hit Gillaspy On the
head with an iron bar and then
Roach struck the guard on the left
shoulder with club. The two pris-
onerS fled out a rear door of the
Jail and down an alley where
Weaver hailed a taxicab. Roach
disappeared after turning a corner
near the Jail.
Richard Eads. 36, cab driver, I'M
suSpectingly drove Weaver north
of the city, where they stopped at
the home of John Baugh, a farmer
Ordering the driver to wait on him
Weaver went into the house. A few
minutes later Baugh returned and
told Eads his passenger was an es-
capped prisoner and had 'scrammed
into the hills" of Bean Blossom
township.
Eads returned to Bloomington,
where he notified officers already
organizing posse.

Powers Asked to Reduce to
Nippon'S Level.
By CHited Press


TOXIC, July 31.-Premier Keisuke
Okada today called on the highly
armed powers to lead the way in
reducing naval ornaments, bringing
themselves eventually 10 "Japan's
level"
The first move in genuine naval
reduction must come from highly
armed powers" Okada told news
paper correspondents. He referred
to Great Britain and the United
States, signatories with Japan of
the present naval treaty.
Okada, who spent forty-four years
in the Nippon navy, said he can not
favor the principle of the existing
naval ratio, which limits Japan to
three ships for every five allowed
Great Britain and five allowed the
United States.

occupied the court building and
machine guns were placed in the
entrances, pointing into the streets.
Newspaper men and spectators
who attended the trial, were forced
to leave.
Holzweber went to the gallows
first. He was hanged at ABS p. m.
Planetta followed him to death al
4:48 p. m.
Relatives we're permitted to see
the men for half an hour in their
cells before they we're taken to this

The court was expected tomorrow
to start trial of fourteen Nazis con-
nected with seizure Of the govern
ment broadcasting station duringj

Everyday Psychology
BY DIR. JESSE w. SPROWLS
Personalities.

PERSONALITIES are not born.
They are made. Blood crops out
in the color of the eyes, hair and other
bodily features. Personality is some
sort of mathematical equation of forces
pounding on you from all sides of
your environment You are what you
a because of where you have lived
and how you got along 1t takes a
lot of living to make a personality.
Some persons grow into well-knit
and rounded forms These are called
adequate personalities. They can
stand lot of wear. Others grow
loosely. The form is correct, but the
weaving is loose and apt to show weak
spots here and there Under ordi-
nary conditions and a sheltered So
ciety they will last lifetime with
out attracting much attention. These
are the shattered personalities.
There is third kind that does at
tract attention. The person possessing
1t does not seem to be the same from
day to day. He is known to be
moody. and should be called such.
Finally some grow the wrong way
Their personalities are twisted. They
are dependable - dependably wrong
Once you know that fact, you can
best get along with them by keeping
your distance. The misfits of any
society are recruited from the ranks
OF those who have only partially
grown up.
