Aid of Indians.
English Told

The G-men do not call out the In
dams to assist in rounding up gang
sters, j. Edgar Hoover, director OF the
Federal Bureau of Investigation, as
sured Britishers yesterday in a radio
broadcast over the network of the
British Broadcasting Corp.
Mr.. Hoover sought to disillusion his
English listeners of any idea that his
agents rushed about in Wild West
fashion with blazing guns in each
hand-as one British editor apparently
believed.
Il remember late one afternoon dur
ing the search for Dillinger," the head
Oman said, that received a long
distance call from London. A news
paper reporter inquired, What are you
doing to find Dillinger?' I told him
that every lead and every clue was
being carefully investigated, and then
he asked In all seriousness, Are you
going to call out the Indians?'"

THREE CONVICTED
IN CIRCUS FRAUD
Ex-Revenue Agents Found
Guilty in New York Income
Tax Case.

A Federal Court jury in New York
last night convicted Charles d. M.
Greer and Nathaniel F. Rabner, both
OF Washington, former Internal Rev.
enue agents, and John M. Kelley, for
mer general counsel for the Ringing
Brothers Barnum g. Bailey Circus. of
aiding and counseling the preparation
and filing Of false income tax returns
by the circus.
They were acquitted, however, Of
conspiring to violate the income tax
law, according to an Associated Press
dispatch.
After celebrating II hours, the Jury
found all three defendants guilty Of
two OF the four indictments, and not
guilty on the remaining two.
Nathan Probst, attorney for Kelley,
said an appeal would be taken to the
United States Circuit Court of Appeals.
The indictments chraged Kelley
and the former agents with defrauding
the Government out Of s3,359,016 in
income taxes on circus enterprises for
l918-l932 inclusive.
The jurors recommended leniency
for Greer and Rabner Federal Judge
Murray Hubert. who set May as the
date for imposing sentences, said he
was in sympathy with the recommen-
dation, and would give it considera-
ton.
Under the verdict, each Of the
defendants faces a maximum of 40
years imprisonment and fines Of
$4,000.
The Government charged. through
Assistant Attorney General Joseph w.
Burns, that from 1918 to 1882, the
circus enterprises made gross profits
Of s40,667,198. and net profits Of
sl0,789.69l, on which taxes should
have been paid. Burns, during the
trial which began March 10, charged
taxes were paid only on profits of
s4,324,426.
