from the disguises he used in
his bank jobs. He has pulled rob-
berries dressed as a Western Union
messenger, mail carrier, private
chauffeur and even as a police
man.
His police record goes back 81
years. But his first big job did not
come off until October, 1880, when
he and his confedderates staged a
$4,000 jewel robbery here.
Escaped at Sing Sing.
A month later he was caught
and sentenced to Sing Sing Prison
for 80 years, but in late 1882 he
sawed his way out of a supposedly
escape-proof cell.
In 1884, Sutton was captured in
Philadelphia and sentenced to
Holmesburg Prison for 25 to SO
years on robbery conviction. He
escaped by overpowering a guard
February 10, 1947, and had been
a fugitive since.
He was booked here yesterday
on charges of burglary, grand lar
ceny and assault stemming from
an indictment involving the 1850
holdup of the Manufacturers

Yale Paper Suggests
School Might Benefit
From Red on Faculty
BY the Associated Press

NEW HAVEN. Feb. 19.-The
Yale Daily News found itself al
odds today with an alumni com.
imittee as to whether Yale should
employ Communists on it's faculty
The student publication sug.
gested editorially the university
might benefit by appointment o1
an "avowed intellectual Commu-
mist"
The Alumni Committee, com.
pleting survey of the "intellec-
'tual and spiritual welfare" at the
university, reported yale does not
knowingly appoint members of the
Communist Party to its faculty.
Dangerous Assumption"
1--WE approve of this policy
said the committee.
The News countered that ''it is
an unproven and dangerous as
sumption by the committee that
all Communists are incompetent
teachers"
The university, the News re-
called, recently named a jesuit
priest to its faculty.
Thoroughly Defensible." =
Likewise" it said, "the appoint
inent of an avoWed intellectual
communist to shed light on one
phase of Our times most signif1-
can't forces would be thoroughly
Fdefensible." -
II Yale truly desires to present
all sides of an issue, it contended,
lit is not at all improbable that
1T could benefit from the ap-
pointment of Communist at

The bill would add $500 to the
State teacher salary scale by fore
ing counties to raise the minimum
school tax from IS cents to 80
cents. Mr.. Wallace said Mont

mot be affected by his bill, since

10000 Draft in April
Lowest Since September
BY the Assoeiated Press

The Defense Departments 49,
000-man draft call for April is
the lowest total since 5000 were
called last September.
Announcing yesterday that the
Army needs $4,000 men and the
Marine Corps 1000 in April, the
department said fewer draftees
were being called because more
men are volunteering and more
veterans are re-enlisting.
The April quota is the third
lowest since the outbreak of the
Korean war. The lowest was 49,
600 men called into the Army in
July. 1851.

PAY COST - President Tru-

day disclosed that Government
departments and agencies will
have to absorb As per cent of the
cost of last years Federal pay
raise.
However, this can be done
without firing any present en-

ton, as reported here last week
will come from the additional
man-hours created by the reduc-
ton in annual leave benefits, as
well as administrative savings.
The fact that the supplemental
request seeks over $3.50 million OF
the $500 million cost of the pay
raise helps its chances of getting
Congress to approve the entire re-
