UNCLE WIGGILY GOES

Fuzzy Wuzzy.
All three were sitting in the hol-
low stump bungalow looking at
Raggie, the jolly tramp rabbit, who
had been visiting them for time.
And the reason they said "Oh,

said he was going to leave.
"Really I can't stay here any

tramp rabbit. 'You have been

Law SCORES AGAIN

Three kldnaperS committed to prison
Tor 50 years. another, whose attempt
failed, dead by his own hand, and his
comrade in custody awaiting trial. was
Yesterdays record in the mid-west's war
against this apparently popular form of
crime
The Roger Touhy gang, charged with
several kldnapingS, but on trial for the
abduction of John (Jake the Barber)
Factor, were found guilty and given the
longest terms possible under the law.
A fourth member of this gang, which
went through previous trial to a hung
jury, ended his life in his cell several
weeks ago.
Fred Mayo, who with James Lacey at
tempted the abduction of prominent
middle-west publisher Wednesday, stran-
gled himself yesterday in his Jail cell,
following complete confession. Lacey
has also confessed. Their plot failed
when their intended victim put up
fight.
Touhy, hard-boiled and merciless when
pursuing his illegal calling, which was
by no means confined to kidnapping but
included various phases of racketeering
broke down and sobbed when the verdict
against him was read. He just couldn't
take It.
Only couple of weeks ago Verne
Sankey, another topnotch kidnaper,
hanged himself in his Jail cell while
awaiting trial, preferring death to GER
tain conviction.
In view Of the success in the Mayo and
Sankey cases, it might be a bit of con-
structive and economical justice to per-
NIT kidnapping suspects to have a rope or
other hanging material in their cells
The kidnapping business is getting
tough for the kidnapers. There is un-
iversal hope among the law-abiding that
It will get tougher.
