Trial OKLAHOMA CITY,-Sept. 20. (AP) Determined government officials heard new : gangland threats today and answered ' by driving straight ahead with its prosecution of the' dozen persons accused of the Charles F. Urschel kidnaping. New guards were added to courtroom and corridor, more ma chine guns, sawed-oft shotguns, rifles and pistols ' appeared at strategic points, and families of chief figures in the prosecution mored quietly out of town or were attended more carefully in public. "We can expect anything." said District Attorney Herbert K. Hyde. "Gangland is desperate." The youthful district attorney marshalled witnesses from various parts of the west and south to build higher his pyramid of testi mony intended to show that the Harvey Bailey-Albert Bates-George Kelly gang schemed for months before finally swooping at mid night, July 22, upon the unsus pecting Urschel family. The millionaire oil man com pleted his testimony. The expected fire from defense attorneys did not materialire. Instead the cross examination of Urschel3 brought only a few queries, chiefly about the manner in which he was able to identify his captors while blindfolded. He had taken the witness stand yesterday after receiving an air mail letter Bigned by George Kel ler, fugitive defendant, and posted in Chicago. The gangster-machine gunner threatened reprisals upon Urschel and his family If he dared to relate the full story of what happened during the nine . days and nights he was held' a chained captive until payment of $200,000 ransom. .District Attorney Hyde, whose four-year-old boy had been taken out of the city because of reports the child might be kidnaped, and Urschel were recipients ef threats from Kelly or his wife, Kathryn. Joseph B. Keenan, assistant at torney general, revealed that he had noted suspicious actions near his Washington home just before coming to Oklahoma City for the trial, snd guards have been placed there. After circulation of reports he had received a threatening letter from Kelly, Keenan advised the department of justiee that only Urschel and Hyde had been threatened. However, Keenan said lie had been mentioned in the letter. Fingerprints placed as a signa ture on the letter to Urschel were believed to bo those of Kelly, but department agents planned to study them further before making Cross -Word Puzzle By EUGENE SHEFFER -, ' P F P P I v Is Is l' l" IIIIIIL 1 W - TTT- - i I I I I I 1 YA I ill HORIZONTAL 1 Who U tkprMidat Clum- him University ?

"It may be a month, or It may be a year, but he cannot escape the governent forces," the anti-crime director asserted. He referred to Kelly as a "brutal, boasting, moral derelict just an other rat who has had a lot of luck." Keenan called Bates a "small timer. "Some call Harvey Bailey our Public Enemy No. 1'," Keenan said. "I don't. In my opinion Bai ley is typically cowardly a man who has never hesitated to use a machine gun against an, unarmed opponent, and never has seen fit to use one when opposed to people who are armed."
