her head wisely. "And I've got to find

Miami Police Open War
On Gambling And Vice

Miami's Irish-born safety direc-
tor, Andrew j. Kavanaugh, promis-
ed unceasing war last week on
gamblers following in the wake of
south Florida's winter wealth.
He admitted, however:
Gambling and other vices were
here before I came and will be
when I leave"
In any case, vice will not be pro-
tected or condoned by Miami po-
lice, the former patrolman who rose
to become president of the Interna-
tional Association of Police Chiefs,
declared, hard on the heels of two
of the largest gambling raids ever
staged in this resort city.
"You know as well as l." he said
with smile, "that you can't legis-
late people into heaven"
"But," he added, II am opposed
to police condoning crime and as
long as laws remain on statute
books, the police shall enforce
them"

Wilkes Man Has Bad Hour
With Robbers Who Take 1926

Elkin, Jan. 24.-Into Elkin from
the Blue Ridge with broken arm,
Spurgeon Johnson, resident of a re-
mote spot in the Brushes, related
a hectic experience along with the
robbery of 1926 from his person.
He said he was seeking a cab to
convey him to Brooks Crossroads
late yesterday when two men vol
unteered to accommodate him. They
took an opposite direction and COW
cred him with guns.
Johnson was driven to the foot
of the mountain and escorted into
an unlighted room where his mon
ey was demanded. When he remon-
strated, he received a blow that
broke his arm. Next he was taken
to the woods and tied.
Wilkes officers and private inves-
tigators are combing the country in
quest of the two who operated the
automobile from Elkin.

Father Kills Wife And Five
Children In Illinois Murder

The seven members of the Will
liam A. Albers family were found
shot and bludgeoned to death last
week in a flaming farm home in
Danville, Ill.
A posse of Edgar county officials
and residents who trudged to the
snow-bound house in 2O-below zero
weather made the gruesome dis
covery. A hasty reconstruction of
the tragedy led them to believe
Albers had killed his wife and five
children in a demented rampage
week or 10 days ago, and had lived
in the grisly household until in
vestigators approached Thursday.
They reasoned he then made pyres
for each of his victims-mattresses
soaked in kerosene-set them afire
and slew himself.
Apparently the children, four
boys and girl-all clad in night
goWnS-had Deen slain In their
sleep.
Posse leaders asserted the belief
John, IT,, MILFORD, A., and Forrest,
10, had been beaten to death. A
blood-stained baseball bat was
found in their room. Rifle bullets
had ended the lives of Mrs. Augusta
Albers, As, Gene, 4, Shirley Anne, 2,
and Albers, 81. All had been shot
through the head. -.:. .,.--.~ -
Albers' body was sprawled on the
dining room floor. The others lay
in their beds-the two oldest sons
together-in various parts of the
six-room house.
It was the absence of John and
MILFORD from Sideu high school
that led to the formation of the
posse.

Gun Angle Investigated

A theory that a passenger, bent on
self-destruction, may have caused
the crash of the American Airlines
transport plane in an Arkansas
swamp, is being investigated after
inspectors found an automatic
among the effects of the II victims.
A piece of metal with a hole
through it about the size of bullet
was reported found in the plane
wreckage. Department of Commerce
officials said the human element"
and not mechanical defects caused
the crash.

WIFE DESERTER RETURNS
HOME AFTER IA YEARS

Lenoir, January 29.-An Enoch
Arden story developed here last
week, when a stranger drifted into
town, and hunted up 14-year-old
son he had never seen.
It developed that the father had
deserted the boys mother, while
they were living in the foothills
near Lenoir more than ii years
ago. He had drifted all over the
west, and twice had married, but at
present is said to be single, and
holding responsible position in
Scott county, Virginia.
The 14-year-old lad was over-joy-
ed to meet his father, in spite of the
past, and the two quickly became
cronies. After a short visit with his
son, the father supplied him with
clothes and money, and announced
that he would provide funds to
send him through high school and
college. The father has returned to
his job in Virginia.
The boys mother has been sup.
porting herself and the son by do.
ing relief work, and picking ur
other odd jobs. She said she would
be glad for her former husband to
assist the boy through school, but
expects to retain custody of the lad
as a reward for IA years of bitter
struggle alone.
