FEDERAL MEN
HUNTING FOR
BANDIT PAIR

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Jan. Il.
U.P)-Federal agents and police con-
centrated their search for Alvin
Karpis and Harry Campbell in the
New Jersey and New York City
area today in hope that the license
plate of a stolen automobile would
lead them to the two midwestern
outlaws.
Karpis, most sought of the ma
tons fugitive gunner and kidnap-
ers. and Campbell shot their way
tout of an Atlantic City hotel with
blazing machine guns on Sunday
and fled through a downpour OF
rain in an automobile stolen from
nearby garage.
They left behind most of their
ornaments, Campbell's clothes and
two women, one of whom was
wounded slightly in the fight at the
! hotel from which the two outlaws
cleared path by pouring barrages
of machine gun bullets at police
armed only with pistols.
Federal agents supplied machine
guns for the search. arriving here
with travelling bags loaded with
arms. They spread their search
from the midwest to New England,
but they concentrated on the At
lantic City area and then spread out
over New Jersey and to the Holland
Tunnel, which leads to New York
City.
The license plates of the stolen
car offered the chief hope of the
agents for an immediate capture
but shortly before noon, Capt. EN-
anuel Eckstein said there had beer
no trace of the car This indicated
the outlaws may have hidden ir
New Jersey.
"These men have to get clothing
somewhere" Eckstein added. "Bott

only house slippers. Campbell hac

raincoat. Karpis had no shirt"
He said Karpis, whose sweetheart
is expecting the birth of q chile
next week, had planned to rent al
apartment here and hide out
abandoning criminal activities fo
the time being.

pecially clothing merchants, to ad

answering the descriptions.

Sarah thought Of her Mortified queS-
tioning of friend under somewhat
similar circumstances.
She remembered herself saying dis
gustedly You don't mean you really
want him back after that other wo-
mans had him for months?" And
the friends shamed nodding Of her
head. Now she knew that she
wanted John Graham no matter
what he had done; no matter If he
was admittedly in love with another
woman.
She looked at him as he sat, quiet,
euiltily twisting his fingers.
OF course, since it had happened
they had both said bitter things;
things better left unsaid but never
theless true.
In a fit of anger he had flung at
her: You've always been so darned
dictatorial. I tell you a man gets
tired of woman who's always right
and tells him SO. Our marriage has
been one of those misfits-it hasn't
clicked from the first, and there's nc
use carrying on the comedy"
After that she had inquired of a
friend about the "other woman" and
had been told: "Shes all that you
aren't, Sarah; soft, cuddly. with that
oh, you big he-man!' look in her
baby blue eyes. Hasn't brain in her
fluffy head"
That had settled it.
The next day she started packing
tearing up the home which it had
taken 10 years for the two Of them
to build. In businesslike manner she
tagged the boxes to go to John and
others to be sent to a small cottage
on the city's edge.
The cottage wasn't much to look
at; but it was compact and COM
Portable. For week she cleaned and
Strengthened it. And then one after
noon John called to say that he was
leaving on a permanent transfer for
the West. He wanted to come out to
say good-by to Johnny.
Sarah tried to feel relieved.
There was just this one evening to
live through-and he'd be gone. Gone
forever! And Sarah pricked her finger
with the pin which she was using
to fasten the ruff1ed curtain to the
frivolous glass tie-back holder. She
didn't notice the tiny splotch of red

to belong to the small oak table. To

DEBUTANTE PARTIES
MORE SUMPTUOUS
More Money Declared Being Spent
Than ANY Time in Last
Five Years.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December '26.-So-
ciety has loosed the purse strings for
its debutantes this year and the gay
young people of Mayfair are in the
swirl of the holiday seasons round OF
elaborate dances and parties.
One woman who recently introduced
her daughter to society expressed the
belief today that more money is being
spent this year on debutante parties
than at any time in the last five years.
1t is nothing, she said, for the par
ents of deb" to spend from $4,000
to $4,000 on a party. On Long Island
they are still talking about one affair
reputed to have cost the father Of q
debutante $4,000.
About 800 debutantes are making
their VOWS in New York this season.
slightly above the average number
and the result is that on some nights
three of four big parties are in prog
ress.
Whether the towns eligible young
men go to the deb parties for free
liquor and food, as Medora Roosevelt,
a subdeb, asserted last week, it Is
nevertheless difflcult to crash"
party without an invitation.
One hotel was the scene of three
debutante dances the other night, but
that didn't mean guest at one party
could drop in at another. Some had
invitations for all three. The others
had to stay at their own party.

Hugh WalpoIe Says Change

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
HOLLYWOOD, Calf, December rs.
Hugh Walpole. English writer, looked
into 1886 today and expressed skep-
tical hope that war will cease forever
and economic disparities would be ad-
justed.
The noted novelist, who came here
to aid in production of Charles Dick
ems pictures, predicted an imminent
struggle between the "haves and have
nots"-only a universal change OF
heart, he ventured, would solve the
difficulty.
with millions of Others" said Wal
pole, my wish for 1886 must be that
war should cease in the world forever
more.
"How vain and helpless such wish
seems at this moment, for undoubtedly
we are beginning a period in the
worlds history of universal strug-
gle between the haves and have nots.
Nevertheless, one may dream of a
meeting Of all the worlds great lead
ers, and the haves say to the have
nots, This shall be yours, and this
and this The have nots say to the
haves, And now having given equity
to. the world, having given justice to
the world. we will combine together
for peace in all eternity
"Such dream needs a change Of
heart in every human being alive to-
day for its fulfllment. And such q
change of heart seems simple thing
and such a simple thing seems at the
end Of 1885 an irony.
But one day it will be a fact"
