$4,000 STILL MISSING
After a careful count by audi
tors, it was revealed that $780,
900 is still missing of the New
Years Eve theft of $3.50, 900 from
the Bureau of Engraving.
Moreover, even the surrend-
ering of fifth suspect a cou-
sin of the original suspect,
James Rufus Lands didn't
even close the case. There is
a lot to be done yet" said
Chief U. E. Baughman.
Baughman noted how after
Lands took the money from the
Bureau on New Years Eve Day,
four of six suspects held inthe
case, split into teams of two
on New Years Day and began
spending "hot" $40. bills in a
frantic attempt to get rid of
them, before the theft was dis
covered. The sos were at first
mostly spent in liquor stores
until one bought clothes and
Lands bought a car.
Then On the fatal fifth day,
Lands drove the car with his
wife, Mamie, to a farm in Mid
dleburg, Va. where her father
worked. They told the father
to bury the money. He, instead,
called the police.

Wife BAILED IN $4,000
TREASURY THEFT CASE

WASHINGTON - Mrs. Mamie
Lands, wife of the man ac-
cuSed of taking 100000 from
the Bureau of Engraving on
New Years Eve Day, was out
on bail this week. An anony-
nous benefactor had put up
a $4,000 cash bond for the
comely Mrs. Lands, who has
repeatedly asserted she would
have tipped off the police as her
father did of the sensational
robbery, if she had only known.
Il knew nothing about the
robbery" she claims. 81 only
want to help in every way pos
Sible."
The bond money for Mrs.
Lands bail was handled by
Douglas R. Smith, a vice pre-
Sident of the National Savings
and Trust Co. Said Mr.. Smith
about the benefactor: "He is
a highly reputable client of our
bask who does not desire per-
sonal publicity"
He did however add that the
benefactor is also a neighbor
of the estate where Mrs. Lands
father works. 1t was her father,
Irving Grant, who broke the
case by going to the police
with a parcel of the stolen bills.
