Cause Sensation in Iowa
By the Associoted Press

A railroad car inspector stopped
$700 worth of the bonds. A

turned them over to the police,
went back to work and found $475
more. A lawyer called police to
say client had found some bonds.
Others were turned in to the
FBI.
Omaha detectives, assigned to
round up the bonds for Grocer

It's Different at the Carlton,
They've Taken the Ritz Away

Dick O'Brien still mixes your spe.

can see many of the old Ritz
patrons lunching on dishes that
made the Ritz cuisine famous.
But there are important changes
too. The Palm Court and the
japanese Garden have not been
Public rooms are lim-
tied to two big dining rooms, a
reception. room. a mems bar, a
women's cocktail lounge and the
lobbies. Publicity conscious debu-
tantes could not make their bows
to society in the ballroom now, for
there is no ballroom. You can't
check into Carlton House for a
few days while you are in town
because it has no transient rooms
The RitZ,s successor is a resi-
Dental hotel, filled with family
living units varying from one and
a half to four and a half rooms
All have small kitchens-but all
are designed to operate without
family servants.
Pattern Has Changed"
"We built to meet the pattern
of living today" said James o.
Stack, president of the Ritz Carl
ton Hotel Co.. which operates
Carlton House.
THE pattern has changed q
great deal since the old Ritz was
built 40 years ago. Lots of people
who had big houses then can't
cope with their cost any more.
Lots of career wives find running
a household too heavy a job in the
face of the servant shortage. Lots
of people who used to travel in
luxury can't afford it now. So we
built to suit the times"
There's another place in Carlton
House, where you can see signs of
the times. 1t is the main lobby
staircase, copied from the grand
staircase that rose from the Ritz
Palm Court-the one down which
SO many famous beauties swept.
The new one rises with the same
majestic sweep. But you can wait
near it long time these days for
a grande dame to make a grand
entrance in the old grand manner.

The old Ritz. now being de-

Brannan Plan Raped
By WooIIey, Who Quit
As Agriculture Aide

Frank K. Woolley, who resigned
a top position in the Agriculture
Department four days ago because
Iof differences with Secretary
Brannan, declared last night a
Government program for subsidiz-
ing perishable commodities is
bound to lead to increasing eco
nomic difficulties.
Taking exception to some fea-
lures of the Brannan plan. Mr..
Woolley asserted that by demand
ing excessively high price sup
ports at a time when they are not
needed, the Government stimu-
lateS excess production of the
commodities affected.
Sees Subsidy Increase
The extra supply forces the
market price down, he said. Then,
under the Brannan plan, the
Government would have to pay
larger subsidies to farmers in
order to make up the difference
between low market price and the
guaranteed high parity, he added.
Until last March, Mr.. Woolley,
was deputy administrator of the
Production and Marketing Ad-
.ministration and vice president
of the Commodity Credit Corp.
The CCC is the Governments
crop-buying and loan agency.
Both he and Ralph S. Trigg,
his immediate superior, were re-
moved from their PIMA Offices by
Secretary Brannan but both con-
tinued on the CCC board. Mr..
Trigg resigned from the Agri-
culture Department about two
months ago and became deputy
administrator of the Defense Pro-
duction Administration.
Mr.. Woolley quit Agriculture
last Wednesday to become Iegis-
iative counsel of the American
Farm Bureau Federation. The
federation is sharply at odds with
Secretary Brannan.
Says Freedom Is Threatened.
Mr.. Woolley contended a fun
.damental question is whether the
Government should have a high
price support plan when it is not
needed. thereby requiring some
type of control which restricts the
individuals freedom of choice.
He conceded the Government
must possess necessary instru-
ments to take care of situations
in economic distress" but said such
emergencies do not exist continu-
.ously.
He said he staunchly supports
theh theory behind the Agricul-
ture Act of 1948, which provides
price supports for commodities,
centering at IS per cent of parity
and with a sliding scale deter
mined by supply and demand.
"If we stick hard and fast to the
program for high level price sup
ports over long period of time, :"
said Mr.. Woolley. I'VE are certain
to restrict freedom because this
will substitute Government deci-
sions for decisions by individuals. p"
: Some Keeping Quiet"
Every thinking farmer knows
ne has a distinct responsibility in
the situation and he doesn't want
to duck it. And SO per cent Of the
people in the Agriculture Depart
ment believe this. too. They are
Simply keeping quiet"
Mr.. Woolley emphasized his
belief the farmer should get as
much as he can for his products
on a reasonable basis but he said
this is quite a different matter
from the subsidy arrangements
under the Brannan plan,

Chicago KiIIerC Caught;
.Quizzed on Details
OF Escape From Jail
By the Assoeiaied Pres,

CHICAGO, Aug. 17.-Police to-
day questioned a husky killer in
an effort to learn full details OF
his escape from the death row OF
the Cook County Jail Tuesday
night during which he beat a
guard to death.
Harry Williams, rapiSt and
slayer, was recaptured without a
struggle last night while he was
riding street car.
The 20-year-old Negro's cap
ture lacked the dramatic overtones
of his escape over the Jail wall
less than Al hours before.
Williams. neatly dressed. was
riding in a street car reading a
Bible when four policemen in a
squad car spotted him. Two of
the officers, in plain clothes,
quietly boarded the car, captured
Williams and took him off.
Williams surrendered meekly,
insisting that police had the wrong
man, that his name was Billy
Lilly" He had drivers license
bearing that name. But police
flngerprinted him and established
his identity. Williams was oues-
toned more than two hours and
finally admitted his identity.
Williams had removed steel
plate from his cell in the death
row Tuesday night, just a month
before his scheduled execution
for numbering a Negro woman
The slayer shinnied up to the
roof of the Jail through ven
tllatlng shaft. He lowered himself
to the ground with a rope he
had made of bed sheets. He
climbed into a nearby guard
tower on the wall and beat to-
death Guard George Turley. a..
Then he dropped to the ground
outside the wall.
A wholesale Investigation of
alleged "laxity" at the big jail
is under way. A guard was fired
and a jail official was denoted.
