Woman Is Sur! Thief
Has Spent Her S1,7OO

Miss Ruby o. Duley, 40, Of 6533
Third street NV. had given up
hope last night of recovering the
81, TOO taken from her bedroom
dresser drawer by a housebreaker
the day before.
I'm sure the money has been
spent already" she said ruefully.
Miss Duley who is an employe of
the Bureau of Engraving and Print
ing, said that the lost $1,700 repre-
sented the savings of many years.
She was planning to use to make
some repairs on her house, she said.
Miss Duley said she discovered
that her house had been broken
into when she returned from work
Friday. evening The thief had ap-
parently entered by forcing the lock
on one of the front windows, she
said, and had made terrible mess
of the place" in his search for valu-
ables.
HE couldn't have known that I
had the money here" Miss Dudley
declared. I'm not the kind Of per-
son to tell anybody about my bust
ness"
A ledger of Miss Duley's, Herman
w. Heuer, so, told police that the
thief robbed him of 500.

but was discussed at the same
time with American officials.
These two steps by Britain, plus
a determined effort to cut imports
while increasing exports to coun-
tries paying with dollars, represent
Britain's hope OF avoiding bank
ruptcy.
Although top officials on both
sides have ended their five days of
discussions on Britain's financial
plight. subordinates are continuing
to examine another British request
for help within the loan agreement.
To save dollars still more, the
British want permission to shift
some of their trade with the United
States to their dominions and
colonies even though the goods may
be more expensive there A So
called nondiscrimination clause in
the loan agreement binds the
British not to do this.
Some American Government off,
Gals feel the United States should
yield on this point too if the help
already offered the British is to

while playing in the front yard of
her home. A motoring couple re-
ported they saw her wandering down
a highway in front of the house, but
searchers had no other clue to aid
them.
Disappeared While Playing.
Sheriff Leroy Retterer and the
child's father expressed belief she
had been kidnapped after a blank
wall was encountered in efforts to
find her.
Carolyn's 3-year-old brother Carl.
had lent credence to the kidnapping
theory by reporting she had been
taken away in a yellow car" His
story was discounted at first because
he could not tell which direction the
machine was headed.
She was found about 1900 feet
from the spot where Mr.. and Mrs.
Dan Cocherl of near Waldo last
saw her Wednesday. Carolyn was
walking south away from her
parents home then, and a small
aluminium toy was found nearby.

they appealed to the United States
for help.
The United States responded by
telling Britain it was within the
agreement to stop paying out dol
lars altogether while she set up
system to police" demands on
her treasury.
Screening Will Save Millions.
American officials say there is
nothing illegal in this since the
loan agreement does not specify
that Britain has to accept each
country's word. nor does it prevent
a holiday while Britain revises
her payment setup.
This new screening method will
save Britain many millions of dol
lars according to American esti-
mates. But the British stand to
save more under an action taken
simultaneously with American
permission.
The British took advantage Of a
clause in their agreement with the
international Monetary Fund to
declare they will not fulfill all
demands for dollars even when
such claims are legitimate.
In Exceptional cases"-presum-
ably when the countries asking for
dollars are pretty well off-Britain
has the right to pay off only part
of such requests. This did not
involve the loan agreement at all
