than any legislation which has passed Congress in the last four years.
 Already reports are current that this most recent decision coupled with the verdict upholding the mini mum wage law may have effect on the status of the Presidents proposal to reorganize the court Some are of the reported theory that the attack on the Court has broadened that tribunals view, and news dispatches today hint of possible voluntary retire ments from the bench in the future by some of those who have reached the 75-year mark If such a course is followed it probably will add weight to the Chief Executives court reorganization bill. It would appear to be an admission of need of just what the President has demanded.

convicted murderer sawed his way lout of the main tank and then walked out from the Juneau Fed eral Jail the previous night and disappeared as if completely swal- flowed up. Various clues were run ldown-one that fast launch, lspeeding down the channel, had Krause aboard. The launch was overtaken--Krause was not aboard. l Immediately the escape was mo- lticed-the alarm was spread and within Is minutes, the jail was surrounded by hundreds anxious to help capture the desperate slayer.
 Deputies organized posses which secured the city, and the beaches along the channel on both sides. None knew whether Krause was armed and if so he would shoot to kill those who attempted to stop him. Doors were locked, women and children kept off the streets as patrols hurried here and there running down all clues, but morning came-then noon, then the after noon and The Empire said "Krause was still at large"
 When were the bars of Krauses ! cell cut?-that was the question. Krause was under sentence of death, convicted many months previous of the murder of Capt. James Plum kett.
 Before the conviction of Krause on the murder charge, he had been convicted of Kidnapping, fraudulent use of mail, forgery, robbery and other crimes. Besides the death sentence he had been sentenced to [ 53 years in prison following con- lviction of other crimes. A reward of s1,0OO was offered by the Gov ernor for Krause's capture. 1 Several German submarines or scout boats were reported off the Coast of Alaska.

a while he came out and got on his
horse and sauntered off to the Cen
tennial and, going in the back way by
the railroad tracks. he saw a Lamesa
man he'd known for years standing
guard at the gate.
''Howdy. Jed" he said and took off
his ten-gallon hat Then he mopped
his brow, kind of deliberately.
Jed looked up at him. II s'pose
you're on this special deputy squad.
Hill-Billy"
you amt seen any stranger around
here who looks like crook, have you,
Jed?"
Nope. amt Put on your hat, you
damn fool, before the sun gifts you"
Hill-Billy put On his hat. Then he
ambled down the road behind the
transportation Building. At the
Chrysler Gardens he reined in his
horse beside man who was sitting
there munching on hamburger. Hill
Billy took off his hat and mopped his
brow.
"Howdy, Stranger" he said cor
daily but kind of deliberately, then
replaced his hat. Come from Okla
homa?"
Nope, from Say, what you
tryin' to find out, Ranger?"
Just passing the time of day. Amt
you heard that Texas welcomes the
world?"
The man bit into his hamburger,
holding it in his left hand. This seemed
kind of odd to Hill-Billy. So he took
off his hat and wiped his forehead.
you wouldn't by any chance an
swer to the name of Les Mowbray
in Kansas City?" he drawled.
1t was as simple as that.
And when the Old Man got the
telephone call from the Centennial
Police Station that Les Mowbray, es-
capped bank robber, had been turned
in, he was tickled pink But when he
heard who the turner-in was, he grew
himself nice Mexican sunburn. And
it was like that all day. None of the
other boys got man. Maybe they
were riding the Ferris wheel or listen
ing to the barking of Paris Peggy.
About every thirty minutes the phone
buzzed and Hill-Blly had picked up
a man. Once he corralled three of them
when they were listening to that mani
fold musical instrument that sells for
quarter No bloodshed. No shooting.
The Old Man kept getting GUNNER

And l sure do thank you" Then he
switched to me. Get the Centennial
Station. pronto. Tell them to turn

BY the time Hill-Billy came I'd
checked the list from Headquarters
with the photographers and it struck
me that by the simplest addition Hill
Billy had made nine hundred dollars
and that the Old Man must be pleased

be mighty pleased. But the Old Man
ran true to form.
Its cockeyedr' he stormed. Il

WAS it only nine?" said Hill Billy
gently.
When the Old Man came down to
earth in his emotions he seemed to
have changed his mind about some
thing. How did you pick EN- up?" he
demanded.

Outsmarted by a dumb cIucE
that seemed a bitter pill

his good luck .

OBODY in North Texas is
~ likely to forget that red
letter day when Ranger
Hill-Billy (William Howard
Hill. to YOU outsmarted the Old Man
in Dallas. The Old Man had never
figured that could be done to him.
Least of all by Hill Billy, who had al
ways been a dumb cluck as Ranger
and most everything else. Or so the
Old Man thought.
I'm the Old Mans secretary. so
was in on the start and finish. 1t was
hot day in June The day of the visit OF
The Great White Father to the
Centennial, 50 all the regular police
force was plenty occupied. Then a
hurry order came in from Washington
about a covey of thieves, con men and
Handwriting experts" that was headed
for the Centennial. 1t was hot tip
and the Old Man hauled in Hill-Billy
from Arlington Downs along with
seven other Rangers. In his Office he
gave them the works on how to be
citified cops, being hardest of course
on Hill-Billy. That's the way he was
about him.
Hill-Billy wasn't born with the gift
of answering back, so he took it all and
kept on grinning. Without saying any
thing. That's the heritage of the West
Texan. And when they had all the
dope. including the photographs of the
birds they were supposed to bring in,
they filed out. Eight kind of siouching
but likable men, fancy rustler catch
ers, naturally. but all of them green
horns when it came to lassoing city
slickers There was hundred dollars
head reward for each of the lot and |
happened to know that Hill-Billy's
wife was in St. Paul's Hospital waiting
for the first call from their first child.
l felt kind of sorry for Hill Billy, for it
struck me he must be having that on
his mind.
1t seems he went right from the Old
Mans Office to the hospital. And after

to him, 'Howdy, Stranger and -
The Old Man appeared to be having
apoplexy. This amt a campfire
storyr he snorted. And you haven't
all night to tell it. You'll get your re-
wards, all right. and I'll boost the
ante another hundred right now if
you'll tell me how it comes that you
seem to carry a camera inside that
square head of yours"
Give me the hundred" said Hill
Billy as smooth as velvet.
The Old Man came across.
Then, after he bad folded up the bill
and put it in his breast pocket, Hill
Billy handed his hat to the Old Man.
And while the Old Man was looking at
the pictures of the lineup we'd given
to the Rangers carefully pasted with
little strips of adhesive tape into the
sweat band of Hill-Billy's hat, Hill
Billy kept on chatting.
And after I'd said. 'Howdy,
Stranger l took off my hat because
sunstroke is something l amt never
bothered much about So when met
up with a broken nose or a missing
finger or a caulifower ear that might
hitch with them pictures, / took of
my hat again and compared notes. 1t
struck me as being about the same
thing as rounding up stolen cattle
whose brand amt been changed none"
WELL" said the Old Man kind of
saggily, Il give in." Then he glared at
Hill-Billy. Whose idea was this?"
Mine. But your daughter pasted
them pictures in
The Old Man jumped. II plumb

They telephoned from the hospital.
She's - you've - you two got son.
Nurse says everything's fine" He
stumbled to his feet. Take this blasted
hat. Crandbob and you are going to
see that boy"
OF course Hill-Billy couldn't have
forgotten that the Old Man had never
even seen his daughter since she ran
off and got spliced the year before, but
there wasn't a twitch out of his CO.
ordinated muscles.
"Okay, Chief, on one condition"
Condition.! yelps the Old Man.
