How woulil you like to be
President in this prohibition
day? Hum runners, in a hitrh
powered boat, attack a govern
ment border patrol boat, and
win, in a running fight.
While that happens, Senator
Class of Virginia is aeeusing
President Hoover of "submerg
ing prohibition,"" not giving it
the proper ill lent ion.
, And, to make matters worse,
I be President, on Wednesday

gineer President, eleeted to do
tilings, should be compelled to
waste his time in such a fash
ion. Our Mr. Dawes and liritain's
Mr. Ramsay JfacDonald have
decided that "statesmen," not
naval technical experts, must
arrange the armament agree
ment. Where will t'ncle Sain find
bis "statesmen?" Great Hrit
aiu raises them. We give of
fices to accidental politicians
and call them statesmen.
They decided also that you
cannot create any "yardstick"
to establish comparative fight
ing value of ships of different
sizes, gun power, .speed, ele.
1
That's solemn truth. Let one
side have the yardstick and let
the other have a fighter like
Nelson or Wake and your yard
stick will look foolish.

This nation, with its annual
income of NINHTY TIIOP
SAN1 MILLIONS of dollars,
treats education generously.
Hut the value of education de
fends not on money, but on
the brains on which the educa
tion money is spent. A crop
depends not entirely on the
seed; but more on the soil.

The automobile in which the !
two escaped was discovered shortly i
after 1 1 o'clock" a mile east of !
Concord. I'olice expressed the
helief they had transferred t he j
loot to another car and were
headed toward ( nk land.
The bandits, it was said, had a ;
J o - m i n u t e st a rt on police t rom
Concord. Armed posseH were
placed at all entrances lo Oakland
and Herkeley In an attempt to ap
prehend the two.
Officials of the Columbia Steel
works, 1'ittsburg, were going over
manifests to determine if the pay
roll of that company, amounting
to $130.1100, had been included in
the loot taken from the express
car hv the two bandits.
Working with precise ease. theiJuM,:1
bandits boarded the train at Jiay
Point. Shortly after Hie .train, a
local en route to Tracy, was under
way, they ordered the rear brake
man to stop at
certain point
east of McAvoy.
At the I'nint it u-n rennrted tn
th.. sheriff ih i ... l.nn.lii h:i,l n
I net-nil." consisting of one ma-
hlne gun and two automobiles in
which to niitkt their escape.
The enuineer ran past the nolnt
where the bandits ordered him to
stop, and was forced to hack the!nomM' tn t,ie flrt inning. Booting

the machine un.
While one bandit held the train
crew at bay, the other systemat
ically rifled the mail sacks of all
registered letters and took every
thing of value from the express
packages.
The two men cooly drove off In
their automhih after the robbery
was completed.
Machine inii In Atilo
The machine gun. Southern Pa
cific officials reported, was mount
ed on the rear of one of the auto
mobiles. They said the second car
may or may not have belonged to
the bandits, and pointed out there
may have been other accomplices
waiting for them.
K. A.' llycker, rear hrakeman of
the train, attempted to argue with
the two men, it was said, and con
sequently the train ran 700 feet
past the spot where the cars and
machine gun were located.
While no detailed estimate ha
been made of the amount of mall
the bandits obtained, it was said
by officials that the "haul" might
run as high as $20,000. -The regis
tered mail was in five separate
packages, which they loaded in
I the automobile.
The bandit car was said to have
been headed over WilloWl'"xs for
Concard. Armed posses tvere im
mediately set out on all roads the
two men were expected to travel.
Harnes, the engineer, was In a
Pittsburg hospital. His- wound
was said to be not serious. It was
when the two men ordered him to
bark the train that he was shot,
haying refused to rom ply witn
the order. '
