MY BAD LUCK
..I was a good boy last Sabbath. I
went to Church, I dropped in my
dime. I listened attentively to everything
that was said or sung. 1 could
not see any nearby , ill-wind that
might blow my way.
,.I went straight home after the
services, i parked my car in front
of my house, as usual. I took the
key out of the look and put it in
my pocketbook. I ate dinner. I decided
to take a short trip about 4
p. m. So?
. I put on my overcoat, hat and necktie,
and walked out of the front piiaza
and I was just ready to step in
to my sedan when it dawned upon me
that it was gone, missing, out of
sight, and its whereabouts were unknown.
In other words, somebody
had stolen it, lock, stock and barrel,
and chassis.
. . My blood pressure jumped from
normal in the shade to 188 in the
sun. My anatomy began to perspire
big drops of sweat. My knees and
eyes trembled. I became too weak to
stand up. I was shocked almost into
insignificance. My only modus opperandi
was no more, so far as I
was concerned.
. .1 had all kinds of Insurance on this
car except theft. I didn't need theft,
as I kept the key with me when I
wasn't with the car. That guy stole
not only the car, but he got 18 installments
with it; if he had waited
2 more months, he would have stolen
a fully-paid-for vehicle.
..Well, after 15 years, I am back on
my feet again. I can't buy a new
car, and there aint much hope of
finding my old one. I had the tank
full of gas, the motor full of oil, the.
tires full of wind, the radiator full of
water, and the transmission full of
grease; in fact, she was trimmed up
in such a manner that not even a
thief could find cause for complain.
.. I am marry I can't tell you the kind
of a car it was, you can't run "ads"
in my coulmn, but it whs just like
my partner** car, and his car is a
black Ford with a motor number
that sounded exactly like 3566152 and
the right froT\? fender is slightly bent.
His license number is B22098, but
'WltHe iff on b number younger. If you
seb' anybody with it, pl^nv- "rite or
foam" me collect. I ain't- ab, to keep
en diking; my back is . ' my
legs bend at the knees.

Crop Control Fits
supply to Demand
Clemt?on College, April "Thcaa
who are advocabiug controlled pro- !
duction of agricultural commodities, <
especially cotton, are not unmindful
of the law of supply and demand; in
fact, it is because of a recognition of
the functions of this* law that the control
of production (supply) is advo- ,
cated," says Dr. W. W. .Long, dirw. ,
tor of the Extension Service. "The
definite determination of the production
for a particular year is an effort
to adjust the supply to the demand
in such a relationship as to result in
a fair, price to producers.
"There Is no Intention of trying to <
create a monopoly relativo to cotton
and forcing the price unduly above a
fair level," Dr. Long declares, "but
simply recognizing the functioning of
the law of supply and demand in
making prices and undertaking to 'j
bring the supply into^ proper relationship
with tho demand so that producers
may realize a fair price and ,
one that is more Uniform and certain.
"The prices of automobiles are
much less variable than is the price
of cotton, chiefly because tho' automobile
manufacturer does not hesi- t
tate to reduce the output if the supply
is more than the buying world
(demand) will take at a price the ,
manufacturer thinks fair," I)r. Long ,
says in illustrating his poipt. "Pear
of losing his markets to his competitors
does not deter him from making j
such reduction. He knows that if he ]
can not sell cars at a lower price ]
and stay in business neither can his M
competitors. Or if his competitors 1
can sell the same value at a lower ;
price they will eventually take his 1
markets anyway. That is all production
control means?automobiles, cot- i
ton, or whatever?adjusting the sup- :
ply to the demand in such proportion j
as to result in a fair price to the pro- j
ducer."
Dr. Long thinks that controlled <
production will necessarily stabilize <
prices and' remove the possibility of <
the speculators and gamblers utillz- J
ing cotton as a speculative football ,?
regardless of the interests of the pro- J
ducers. It will enable the farmer to <
organize more intelligently his farming
operations and to give more <
thought and attention to making the *
farm self-sustaining as well as im- >
prove the soil, he believes.
Methodist Men's Bible Class
"The (Great Pyramid of Gazeh" will
be the subject of the address next
Sunday morning ' before the Men's ;
Bible Class of the 'Methodist church.
This pyramid stands before the world1
as the wonder of wonders. That it
has a profound significance will be
brought out by Dr. Wimberly iSunday

this unusual address. You will learn
something you will never forget.
Remember at 10 o'clock Sunday morning.?Jack

and then went in procession to
the First Baptist church cemetery and

flowers. ?
Killer Dillinger's
Itise In Gangland
Indianapolis, April d8.?John Dillinger,
an obscure convict with no
claim to notoriety, was paroled from
the Tmiiajia penitentiary last June.
He had been a "good boy" until the
attempted robbery for which he* received
a 10- to 21-year sentence,
frioml* Hnd official* told the state
clemency board.
They said he was needed at home
"to help care for his aged father."
Governor Paul V. McNutt granted
the parole and young DOlinger went
free.
Six months later the "good boy"
had becomo the most hunted desperado
in the country.
Blood of several men, including a
number of police officers, splotched
the trail of crime blazed by the Dillinger
gang .through Indiana, Illinois,
Ohio, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and
Michigan.
Tho gang killed, robbed- banks,
freed their members from prison and
jail and raided police stations to get
firearms. ,
Finally Dillinger ami three others
were captured at Tucson, Ariz.
> He was returned to Indiana in irons
and placed in the Lake county jail.
H^ didn^t stay long. With a wooden
gun" he made a sensational escape
and joined up. so officers said,
with another band of outlaws.
hour-teen -killings are' charged
against the activities of Dillinger and
his pals, either by the gang itself or
in cqnneotion with the hunt for the
tifcsp^cado. The most recent were
those of a department of justice
agent and a OC(> worker .near Mercer,
wisM last night.
Dillinger's first brush with the law
after his parole came last September
22. He was arrest off bt4)#yton, Ohio,
as a suspect in several bank robberies.
hour days later ten convicts, several
of them armed, made a daring
escape from the Indiana state prison,
shooting an employee and kidnaping
a sheriff. One of the ten was James
Jenkins, brother of Mary Longnaker,
at whose home Dillinger had been
captured at Dayton.
Authorities immediately accused
Dillinger of plotting the escape.
Maps and drawings found in his possession
strengthened their belief.
Dillinger remained in custody in
Ohio. Indiana authorities sought hi*
return, but he was turned over to
the Lima, Ohio, sheriff on a bank
robbery charge.
Then .came a spectacular raid on
the Lima jail to loose Dillinger. A
half dozen Dillinger henchmen freed
their leader and fled after slaying
Sheriff Jess iSarber.
Raids on police station arsenals at
Peru and Auburn, Ind., followed,
rirearms, ammunition and bulletproof
vests were stolen.
Chicago police tried to trap the
slippery outlaw leader in November
at a doctor's office. But Dillinger
and a woman drove an automobile
through a volley of bullets and escaped.
A few days later Harry Copeland
identified as one of the Lima jail
raiders, was captured in Chicago.
Another death was charged to th?
gang: December 14. Detective Ser- i
gen nt William Shan\ey widL killed in i
Chicago by a man identifletPKs John t
Hamilton, alleged Dillinger confeder- i
ate. I
A week later another officer lost his i
life in the manhunt. State Policeman
Eugene Toague was .shot, down ]
in Paris, 111., by a fellow officer in fin j
encounter with Edward Shouse, an- i
other of thp alleged Lima raiders, j
Shouse was arrested. Officers said he ,
had been booted out of the Dillinger ,
gang.
Hilton Crouch, alleged Dillinger ,
gangster, was nabbed in Chicago De- (
cember 23rd. ,
Dillinger became a wraith-like figure-to
officers. He and his immediate
associates seemed to elude the law
with ease.
Patrick O^Malley, an East Chicago, ,
Ind., police officer, was slain January
16 in a bank robbery he tried to frustrate.
Dillinger was identified as the
killer. 'He escaped, as usual.
Then, suddenly, Dillinger bobbed up
at Tucson, Ariz. (He was arrested on
January 25 along with Harry Pierpo>nt,
Charles Makley and Russell
Clark, three of the outlaws accused of
liberating their chief from the Lima
jail. Thousands of dollars, machine
guns, revolvers and a largo quantity
of ammunition were found in the
quartet's possession.
Indiana find Wisconsin fought for
Dillinger's custody. Wisconsin wanted
him for a bank robbery at Racine.
Indiana won out, and1 he was rushed
by airplane to the Lake county jail
at Crown Point.
Dillinger escaped again March 3rd,
ising the wooden "gun." He and a
legro lacked guards in cells, looted
he jail arsenal, kidnaped a deputy ,
ind a garage man and fled in an automobile.
The two kidnap victims
wore released a few hours later.
A man identified as I)illinger shot
bis way,through a squad of St. Paul
police iyvho raided an apartment
March 31st.' A few days later Eugene
Green, identified as a companion v
?f Dillinger in the affair, was fatally
wounded.
Previous to that Herbert Youngblood,
the negro who escaped from
the Crown Point jail with Dillinger,
was' killed at Port Huron, Mich., in
a trap laid'for Dillinger.
Dillinger was identified iby police as
one of the two men who raided the
Warsaw, Ind., jail arsenal early the
morning of April 13.
Pierpont and Makley have been
sentenced to death for the slaying of
Sheriff Barber. Clark received a life
sentence in the same case.
.
President Roosevelt called in Senator
E. iD. Smith for a talk about patronage
in .Stouth Carolina, about which
Senators Smith and Byrnes are in
deadlock on important appointments.
Tjie President apparently was seeking
peace In the Palmetto state. Senator
Byrnes is his right .bower, and Senator
Smith has not always supported
the plans of the White House.
The town board of Mooresville, Ind.,
has petitioned Governor McNutt to
send national guardsmen there to protect
the citizens against John Dillinger.
