Fleagle. white-haired leader of the
notorious Fleagle bank bandit gang,
who talks more like a banker than
a criminal, was sentenced to hang
by a jury In Lamar, Colo., Saturday
night for the murder of A. N. Par

bank of Lainar and a former state
senator.
In less than three weeks Juries

members of the bandit gang, who
killed Parrish and his son John,
bank cashier, during the hold up

CHEAP POLICIES
NO PROTECTION
TO MOTORISTS
Insurance policies offered motor
ists for "full coverage" for two years
for $29 an dsome odd cents are of
no more value to the motorists than
to the holder of similar policies giv
en by newspapers in an effort to
increase their circulation and cost
ing 80 cents each, J. E. Shelton. gen
eral manager and secretary of the
Oregon State Motor association, told
the chamber of commerce Monaay
noon. Shelton was formerly editor
and manager of the Eugene Guard.
Service rendered by the motor as
sociation was emphasized by the
speaker, who said that the associa
tion stood between motorists and
freak legislation and insurance ag
encies. Through affiliation with 157
similar associations, the state is be
ing advertised in all of the offices
maintained by the associations. Re
wards are also paid for the appre
hension of hit-and-run motorists.
Tourists are becoming familiar
with the AAA signs fh all parts of
the country and the Oregon asso
ciation to date has completed the
erection of signs in three counties,
and partially com pie td four more.
In the Salem distrcit more than 800
road signs have already been placed.
The value of the tourist to Ore
gon was set at $25,000,000 this year
by Shelton. or with 80 per cent of
the business in four months, around
$4,000,000 a month and $1.33 for
every man, woman and child In the
state. The amount four years ago
was estimated at only $7,000,000.
Through the work of the national
association the excise tax was re
moved from automobiles, saving
Oregon la ns $6,000,000. The national
association is now sponsoring legis
lation that means an additional $1.-
500,000 to the state from federal
road funds If adopted by congress
and the passage appears favorable.
