SILVER AND GEM
THEFTS REPORTED
VaIuabIes Missing From
Home of Justice Proctor.
Others Victimized.

Police pressed today their search
for a discerning thief, or thieves. who
stole sterling silver and valuable
jewelry from the homes of several
prominent Washingtonians, including
Justice James M. Proctor of District
Court.
The home Of Justice Proctor, 46l5
Lnnean avenue, was robbed Septem-
Der IA Of silverware valued at about
$500 and of several rings and watches,
including a dinner ring set with dia-
monds. The burglar entered through
a side window while the residents
were away.
Similar burglaries in recent weeks
led police to believe the thief, or
thieves. was the same. The home Of
Attorney Seton Darr. 1915 Stephen
son place, was robbed last month Of
jewelry and silverware valued at
$500.
Few of the stolen articles have
turned up in pawnshops, and police
believe the thieves are disposing of
their loot in nearby cities. This be-
lief was strengthened by the finding
Of Justice Proctor's car, which was
parked near his home and was stolen
the same night the house was en-
tered. The car was recovered at
Union Station plaza.
After burglarizing Justice Proctor S
home, police believe the thief took his
car, drove to the station and boarded
q train.
In many cases, only silverware with
the mark Of solid silver has been
taken. and considerable judgment
has been evident in taking the most
valuable pieces of jewelry, police said.
Other robberies reported today were
from:
John E. Buff, night attendant of
a filling station at Second street and
Massachusetts, avenue, robbed of Sl8
by q white man; James Crawford, Is,
colored newsboy, 1900 block of Four
teenth. street, So cents by another
colored boy; Gust Buehl, 1912 Sew

OSHKOSH. Wis, September 26 up.
Gov. ALI M. Landon, pressing his
campaign for Wisconsin's IL electoral
votes, headed for Milwaukee and an
exposition of his views on social Sc
curity today.
En- route for his address tonight at
the biggest city of this progressive
dominated State, Gov. Landon sched-
uled rear platform appearances from
his special train at Fond du Lac, Wat
ertown, Madison and Waukesha.
Having completed presentation Of
his farm program to protect the
American market for the American
farmer" in addresses at Des Moines
and Minneapolis. Landon turned to
consideration of social security as a
second major campaign issue.
Backs Security Plank.
Although on record with a pledge to
"amend the social security act and
make it workable" Landon has not vet
detailed publicly his views on the prob
lem. He has Endorsed the Republican
platform which said, in part:
I'VE approve a pay-as-you-go policy
which requires of each generation the
support of the aged and the determin-
alton of what is just and adequate.
Every American citizen over IS
should receive the supplementary pay
ment necessary to provide minimum
income sufficient to protect him OF
her from want" ...
Pledged Aid to Aged.
In his acceptance address, the Kan
san said: I'VE recognize that society
setting through government, must af-
ford as large q measure of protection
Is it can against involuntary unem-
ployment and dependency in old age
We pledge that the Federal Govern
ment will do its proper share in that
task.
But it must be kept in mind that
the security of all Of us depends upon
the good management of our COM
mon affairs. Mounting debts and in
creasing taxes constitute a threat to
al of these aims"
Gov. Landon finished his social
security address upon his special train
yesterday between eight rear plat
form talks in which he praised Wis
consin's progressive conservation pol
1cies as IAN inspiration" to other
States and assailed the administra-
tons farm trade policies as an eco
-nomic crime"
