The ambassador declared his be-
lief that when America understands
the healthy development" of the
new state of Manchoukuo, and
Japan's purposes in Manchuria, the
United States eventually will recog-
nize the new state.
"Manchoukuo is undergoing a
healthy development" he said. "The
American people in time will realize
that Manchoukuo is contributing to
peace and security in the far east.
/ believe that recognition will come
naturally when this development IS
appreciated in the United States"
He scorned press reports of an
imminent Japanese Russian war
and said decidedly:
There is no such danger. We do
not want to fight the Russians and
I don't think they want to fight us.
The political situation does not war
rant a conflict. Moreover, the latest
news from Toxic, foreshadowing re-

He emphasized Japan's desire to

new state.
I'VE understand that Manchoukuo
meticulously will observe the open
door policy" he said. Japan is
entirely in agreement with that and
has no intention of monopolizing the
Manchoukuo market We want
that part of the world stable, or

He dismissed suggestions that
japanese trade competition, which
created serious tension with Great
Britain, is or will became an acute
question between Japan and the
United States.
1T is true" he said, that at one
time there was some talk in Amer
lea about Japan's competition in
minor fields such as rubber goods,
electric bulbs and bric-a-brac, but
our trade relations are complement

Four bandits robbed the PennS

capped with $4,000, state police re-

Four youthful bandits held up two
employees of the bank.
The bank employees, Harold An

money from the postoffice to the
bank for the bi-monthly pay roll of
the Du Pont plants at Deepwater
and Carney's point.
AS they neared the bank a small
sedan swerved toward them and two
men leaped from the car.

the bag containing the money.
Covering the bank employees with
revolvers, the two bandits rejoined

Reports that John Hamilton, gang
member, was dead were laughed at
by Captain Matt Leach and Chicago
police today. The statement that
the gangSter was killed during the
holdup of the East Chicago bank
was made by Pierpont and Makley
during the long ride from Tucson to
Michigan City.
Merely a "cover-up' to take the
cheat off him." was the way Captain
Leach regarded the story which the
prisoners told of having thrown the
gangster's body in the Calumet river
when he died following the holdup.
Some day soon," Captain Leach
added, I'VE will arrest Burns and
Hamilton and thus end the whole
gang. Meanwhile, you may be sure
the terror mob as gang is
through. No reprisals will come
from Hamilton or Burns, who are
just couple of "punks."

smile and the undying love for her

With John Dillinger, Harry
I Pierpont, Charles Makley and
Russell Clark imprisoned and
facing execution, police today
expressed little fear that
John Hamilton or John
Burns, bandits still at large,
would attempt reprisals.
Police based their claim on the
admissions of Pierpont and Mackley
that the planning and execution OF
all the Jobs" perpetrated by the
terror mob were done by the four
men brought back from Tucson this
week.
To use the words of Captain Matt
Leach, the rest of the mobsters
were merely small fry" Dilling-
err and Pierpont, according to Cap
tain Leach, were really the brains,
with Pierpont taking precedence over
the much-publicized Dillinger as
the actual leader of the mobsters.
Today while Pierpont, Makley
and Clark languished in solitary
confinement behind the red brick
walls of the state prison at Mich
igan City, John Dillinger waited Tor
the Lake county grand jury to re-
turn the "air- tight" indictment
which will bring him into the very
shadow of the electric chair for the
murder Of patrolman Pat O'Malley
during an East Chicago bank hold
up.
Pierpont Labeled Killer
Tall, blond Harry Pierpont of the
cold, piercing blue eyes, soon will
be taken to Ohio to answer for the
murder of Sheriff Jess Sarber in
Lima, o., when the gang went to
the small prison there to release
Dillinger, under arrest for the Mas
sachusetts Avenue bank holdup.
Although Makley, Clark and
other gangsters we're present when
the aged sheriff was killed in cold
blood in the small Ohio jail, IL was
Pierpont, according to Captain
Leach and Philip Lutz, attorney
general, who fired the fatal shot
and kicked the PROSTATE body of
the old man as he lay dying on the
floor
And so Pierpont, the acknowl-
edged leader of the gang which
created a reign of terror in a score
of states and looted ten midwestern
banks of more than $250,000, like
Dillinger, stands veritably in the
shadow of death today.
There is a possibility, according
to prosecuting attorneys, that
Makley and Clark may beat the
murder rap" as the mobsters so
neatly phrase it, when the Ohio
Jury celebrates on the Staying Of
the sheriff.
But there also is distinct pos
sibility that these men also may
perish, according to state and coun-
ty officials, because of the recent
unwillingness of both courts and
iuries throughout the United States
toward allowing desperate criminals
of the terror mob type to circum-
vent the law by legal loopholes.
