At, Courthouse . Where
Kidnapers on . 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

Keenan said Kelly is a marked
man. "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."

Bteelheadg and - cents for silver-

oirered 4 cents a pound for
"bright" Chlnooks and steelheads.
3 cents for silversldes and 2 cents
for discolored Chlnooks.

packers' offers and returning to
work was reported among the
fishermen.

L. J. Chapin of Clear Lake dis
trict was elected president of the
Marion county federated clubs to
succeed E. L. Moore of Hayee
