 Baker and Bunk were routed from bed in their homes before dayn by a detail of state police led by Deputy Attorney General J. Edward Barce. They were taken out of town, supposedly to some isolated spot, for further question ing.
 "Payoff' For His Escape
 Barce has been in Lake County for several months obtaining evil dence which he claims will prove that Dillinger's sensational escape was made possible by a "payoff.
 Barce was said to have been threatened twice by the same un- dcrworld mob that killed the two witnesses,
 The deputy attorney general came here under the guise of in- vestigating poo relief administra- tion and selected Detective Ser geant Sandor Singer of the Ham, mond police department to aid him.
 Singer was with Barce and the state police when Baker and Bunk were taken away to-day.
 Not Arrested As Yet
 Technically they were not under arrest but Barce said arrests would be made shortly.
 The payoff of $1,S00 for Dillin- gers break after his return to In- diana from Tucson, Ariz, was ar ranged through the same syndicate that controlled bootlegging in Lake County before repeal of prohibi- ton the investigators claimed.
 Bunk and Sam Cahoon. a guard at the jail, were arrested last spring after a grand jury investi- gation. Bunk was acquitted on charges of having aided Dillinger and the charges against Cahoon were dropped for lack of evidence.

MOTHERS DAY

Sunday, May IS, is Mothers Day
Since 1917 1t has been the custom to
observe the second Sunday in May in
honor of mothers. The wear ing of
a carnation is a symbol of the day
white if mother has passed on; red,
or other color, if mother is living.
Mother stands for the very best
things in life, and it is with full rec
ignition of that fact that the obser-
vance of Mothers Day should be a
general one.
1t is fine impulse that prompts
to this concerted recognition of the
worth and glory of honorable moth
erhood.
Special sermons, messages. flow
ers, help to this end. but the finest
tribute any person can pay to moth
err is to live life worthy of her.

DAIRY PRODUCTION CONTROL
NOT TO BE ATTEMPTED
AT PRESENT
AT PRESENT

Dairymen of the county will be
interested in the statement by the
Agricultural Adjustment admins
tration that a program of production
control will not be attempted at the
present time, according to J. q. Mil
Ter, county agent for Cecil county
This decision, he states, was arrived
at following a series of nationwide
conferences at which proposed
program of reduction was presented
to dairymen. He has been advised
by officials of the AAA that the dairy
industry as whole is not agreed
upon acceptance of the proposed
program or any other plan Of pro-
duction adjustment and that it is
not considered advisable to under
take dairy production control until
such time as the industry is sub
stantially agreed upon production
adjustment.
That continued effort will be made
to determine the attitude of milk
producers toward the problem is evil
dent from a statement by Chester G.
Davis, administrator of the AAA.
He states, "acting under our express
sed policy to follow the wishes of a
majority of the producers regarding
the desirable method to adopt, and
insisting that the program must be
a voluntary one, we have not in any
sense closed the doors to further
consideration of production control
in any logical way by which it can
be secured under the terms of the
Agricultural Adjustment Act.
.'The Administration joins the Ex-
tension Service at this time in a re-
newal and a reinstatement of our po-
sition which is that we welcome sug-
gestions and ar eready to furnish in
formation and cooperate with dairy
men at any time when conditions
warrant action or when they desire
to avail themselves of any service
we can render"
Reduction in number of diseased
cattle and relief buying OF dairy
products will be continued, as will
the development of milk marketing
agreements and licenses for the
benefit of fluid milk producers.
