in the latter part of December.
II gets very cold in Chicago in
December. remember.
Gas cop at a desk ques-
toned him, a drunk, lying on
a bench, began to rouse him
self and caused hell of dis
turbance.
THIS cop who was ques-
tioning Majczek was the only
one guarding him. Nevertheless
he left his desk, turned his
back on Majczek near the open
window and, when Majczek
didn't make a break for it,
took the drunk back into a
cell, leaving Majczek all alone
in the room with the convenient
window.
"Majczek guessed the siiua-
iion. If he even looked out the
window with his head outside
he'd undoubtedly have had il
blown off. So the prisoner
waited for his guard TO come
back and question him some
more.
IRON there he was taken
to another police station in a
patrol wagon. And-get- this
an aged cop entered the patrol
wagon after him.
"This cop, instead of sitting
at the end of the wagon to
guard it, sat UP close to the
partition that separated him
from the driver, leaving Maj
GEEK sitting on the end to hop
out OF. the moving patrol wagon
any time he saw fit.
"Majczek was only "a at the
time and an athlete. a Golden
Glove boxer. at that time.
However. this obvious attempt
at murder didn't work either.
MAJCZEK naturally became
suspicious and watching from
the back of the wagon saw
two curtained cars, of the type
then in use by the Chicago
Police Dept, following the pa
troll wagon about a short block
away
Mcclure called it an obvious
attempt at murder" by the cops.
And Chicago police haven't
changed since then, as the

cops, can attest.

by the movie: that the present

Chicago had nothing to do with

slapped tight controls on exports
of airplanes and airplane parts,
CHASING them with other war
materials.
The White House made public a
presidential proclamation revising,
effective April Is, the list of things
which cannot be shipped from this
country except under special license.
1t designates as munitions such
things as small arms and machine
guns and fire control equipment and
range finders as well as aircraft.
Congress members have been
clamoring for tightened export con-
trolls since it was disclosed earlier
this week that some airplane en-
gines, sold by the Government as
war surplus, were eventually sent to
Russia by private buyers.
Acts Under 1889 Law.
Mr.. Truman's action means no
one can lawfully export airplanes
or airplane parts without getting
specific Government permission.
He acted under 1899 law. This
