FIVE ROB BANK
OF $4,000

PATERSON, N. j., Nov. 8
UN.SJ. - Four robbers, two
armed, today held up the Pros
pect Park National Bank in sub
urban Paterson, looted the cash
ier's cages of $4,000 in currency
and escaped in an automobile in
which a fifth confederate waited.
The quartet marched into the
bank shortly after it opened. One
OF them carried a sub-machine
gun, another a shotgun. The
man with the Sub-machine gun
swept it in a half-circle and
shouted:
This is a stick up Keep quiet
and stay where you are"
A companion leaped UP on the
grill separating the cages from
the bank lobby, clambered over
and quickly gathered up the
money bags that had just been
brought from the vault. He
tossed them over the grill to his
companions, then dashed out Of
the cages.
After gathering up the money
sacks, the robbers hurried out of
the bank, the leader with the ma
chine gun acting as rear guard
and warning that anyone leaving
the building or raising a alarm
would be shot.
The four ran across the street,
leaped into the waiting car and
sped away.

This time he was accompanied

Sir Charles was thought to have

The one hope lay in a report
that he had been seen over Akyab
on the eastern side of the Bay

forced down over land.

This, however, conflicted with
