SLUM CLEARANCE AND LOW
COST HOUSING FIGHT is NOT
YET WON
The fact that proponents of federal
aid for slum clearance and low cost
public housing won the battle in
the suit filed against them to pre-
vent a referendum on the issue as
scheduled by the City Commission
for June q and the fact that the
referendum election will be held on
the above date. is not to be constru-
ed as complete victory for slum
clearance and low cost housing. Yes,
we did win the court case, in the
suit to prevent the election, and as
said, the election will be held. but
don't think for one moment that
the forces opposing low cost hous-
ing and slum clearance are going to
give up without any further fight.
fau can rest assured that they are
goin to employ every trick known
to the trade in order to defeat the
issue at the polls on June 81. AS I
said before, they have a lot Of m On
ey to work with; they see the hand
writing on the wall, and they are
going to put up a terrific battle in
order to defeat the issue. You can
expect anything to happen between
now and June 81, so you might as
well be prepared for it. The oppon-
ents' object is to defeat the issue at
any cost, and you can expect them
to fight to the very limit of their
resources.
We can win this election and thus
realize our dreams - slum clear.
ance and decent housing at prices
that the average family can afford
to pay - but we've got to fight and
fight hard. Our best weapon in this
battle is our votes. Every registered
person. i'm this community. must
make it point TO be sure to vote
ON June q, and above all, be sure
to vote FOR SLUM CLEARANCE
AND LOW COST HOUSING. It's
must" and we must do so, or we
will suffer the very serious conse
quences i'm the final. So everybody,
be sure to vote on June a.. -.

Await New Strike by
Payroll Ho|dup Gang

Empty-handed after an inten-
sive 24-hour hunt for two holdup
men who snatched a $500 S.
Kann Sons Co. payroll yesterday,
police were on the alert today
against another daylight strike by
what they said was a skilled out
of town band of robbers.
A stolen automobile used in the
payroll holdup of two Kann Co.
employees is undergoing minute
tests in a search for f1ngerprints
of the neatly dressed bandits who
abandoned the car soon after the

Headquarters cruisers and
scout cars patrolling the business
district today had orders to pay
special attention to banks, busi-
ness houses and payroll mes
sengers as a result of the third

marked by the same evidence of
careful planning and calm GRIM
inal skill that marked the $4,000
daylight robbery of the Shepherd
Park Branch of the Hamilton Ma
tional Bank on February II, and
the holdup of Western Auto
Stores employe en- route to a
bank with $4,000 deposit two
weeks ago.
Descriptions of the two men
who held up George M. Langley,
Kann Co. delivery superintendent,
and his driver, James Kidwell, in
dicated they might have been
members of the trio who held up
the Hamilton >bralfch bank. In
both robberies the bandits were
described as neatly dressed, clean
shaven men between IS and 40.
Thinks They Followed Truck.
Mr.. Langley told police he be-
lieved the bandits followed the
truck in which he was riding to
the department store warehouse
at Delaware avenue and c streets
S.W. with the payroll for 1876
employees.
The car used by the holdup men
was found abandoned at Fifth and
Oakdale streets NV. 1t had been
stolen from First and B streets
S.W.. where it had been parked
by Mrs. Don Olson, Abb Fourth
street Sc, as she went to work at
the Federal Security Agency.
Police refused to disclose whether
any useful flngerprints had been
found.

could say little more than:
Thank God"

coming the fifth star in motion

were Bette Davis, Spencer Tracy,
Frederic March and Luise Rainer.
