Man Escapes
Police Spread Net for

Just "Walks Away"
(Continued from Page 1)
City police, who relayed noti
fication of Walters's escape via
shortwave radio, warned that
he would "probably steal a car,"
bat at a late hoar last night no
car was reported missing and
Walters was thought to be
somewhere outaide the capital
city.
Tried and convicted early in
May on charges of theft of n
watch from a residence where he
was working, Walters was sen
tenced to a year in the peniten
tiary by Judge L. H. McMahan
and immediately paroled, only to
be returned to McMahan's court
In n few days to plead guilty to
charges of larceny of an automo
bile. vV'i-?-- . v,;
Turned . loose " again when ho
declared ho would like to return
with his family to Nebraska to
make a new start,: Walters was
told by the Judge that another
appearance in the courtroom
would net him two years in the
state penitentiary.
. Accused of robbing a cash
register In a downtown grocery
store, Walters was jailed not
many, days thereafter. Then it
was he told sheriffs deputies he
had been taking drags for three
months; city police reported
finding a considerable amount
f a mild form of drag on his
person when he was arrested.
Before officers could take him
through preliminary hearings,
Walters was committed by; Mc
Mahan i to the state hospital for
observation and report. No report
as to his mental condition, addic
tion to drugs or general health
had been made up to the time
he disappeared from the hospital
Friday afternoon, officers said.

(Continued from Page 1)
The Italians announced that
their bombers . had ; attacked
both Gibraltar and Malta this
as part of the master axis plan
of smashing at every surviving ;
British position in the Medlter
annean and co incidentally that
the German air corps has now
left Sicily, presumably because
that theater is no longer vital.
The" British for their part dis
closed for the first time, in an
nouncing the destruction ; of an
Italian warplane in an attack on
Aleppa airdrome, that the Italian
air force was taking a hand also
in Syria. - :
The Germans continued to con
fine their efforts in the Mediter
annean principally to threats as
to what was to come, inf erentially
decribing the present period as
one of "creative pause."
: All these military develop
ments, however, were thrust more
or less into the background by
others less direct but perhaps
more important
In Washington, president Roose
velt accused the nazis of planting
rumors in the United States that
ambassador Winant had brought
information from London that
Britain was ready to seek peace,
and said certain Americans were
being duped by the Germans in
this connection. '.
Permitting himself to be
onoted directly, he said that
9pnant had returned with "not
even a tenth cousin of a peace
offer or anything like It ab
solutely nothing like It, pro-
vfded yon we this not as n de
nial by the' president but as aa
accusation by the president'
In London, the British war gov
eminent was sharply ; criticized
ly Leslie Hore-Belisha, a former
war secretary and as sharply de
fended by Ernest Bevis, the min
ister of labor.
As a preliminary to a coming
debate "in the house of commons
on the same subject, Hore Bellsha
declared:
"We suffer , defeat after de
feat, and always for the same
reasons lack of appreciation,
lack of preparation and Imper
fect execution of the project
Each reverse is glossed over
by the same series of incompat
ible explanations, and the nar
cotic of false confidence in the
future is Invariably applied. .
As "the. most hopeful assurance
of the determination of the dem
ocracies to establish a new or
der he proposed a common cit
tzenship for' the British ' empire
and the United States. Ho sug
gested, too, the formation of an
"allied council" to direct the in
dustrial efforts of the United
States and Britain.
Bevin brought hope to the peo
ple for, he said, Hitler "has ac
knowledged that he cannot bring
Britain down before 1942 and that
brings the Germans ' to the fact
that by then the whole weight of
the United States will be thrown
into the struggle." I
"I do not believe," he added,
"that Britain will ever be con
quered by the nazi dictator.w
One member of the axis Jap
an suffered a setback. The gov
ernment of the Dutch East Indies
rejected the principal Japanese
demands for great supplies of rub
ber, ou and tin from the islands,
and instead of a crisis, as the Jap
anese had predicted in such an
event it appeared that the nego
iations simply would go on.
