PAGE TWO JIEDFOTCP MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY. APRIL 26, 1934. COUNTRYSIDE FOR BOLD ABDUCTORS (Continued iiotn page one) urn, ix-year-old June Roblee wu bought today by the police who cap tured John DlUlnger and they were aided by scores of ranchers and grim faced cowboys with eix-guna. The little girl was abducted yester day afternoon as she was returning homeward from school by a man who drove up beside her In an automobile, called to her and then sped away when she entered the car. Two hour later Rosa Ho Estrada, a small boy, brouRht to the glrl'a fath er, Fernando Robles, member of a wealthy old Arizona family, a rough ly printed note which demanded $15,000 before the release of his daughter and warned the father not to report her abduction to author ities. Father Defies Kidnaper Disregarding the threats, Robles called in authorities and word of the girl's kidnaping spread quickly. Ranchers and cowboys quickly of fered their services In the search for the granddaughter of Bernabe Robles wealthy Spanish rancher of a family that has lived in this vicinity since the Spanish land grant days and whose ranch nearby has been a land mark for BO years. Today the Morgan McDermott post of the American Legion was ready to mobilize its members to aid In the far-flung search for the little girl. Late last night three unnamed men were taken into custody by po lice after newsboy said they resem bled the trio who offered him 10 to take a note to June's father. Two of SUDAN GRASS SEED ' PER Vj)C LB. Monarch Seed & Feed Co. them were released early today. Po lice said a third, a college student who admitted making the offer to Newsboy Leon Caster as a "practical joke," was held In Jail overnight chiefly to "teach him t, lesson." No charges were preferred. City Searched With every road in this vicinity watched, authorities today searched every corner of the city with the same determination they showed a few months ago In capturing DUUn ger, notorious mid-western desperado, and three of his companions. Meanwhile police sought identity of the man who gave young Estrado 20 cents to take the ransom note to the girl's father with instructions to bring an answer back to an automo bile parking lot near the store of the. father. When the boy returned with the answer the man wu gone. ' Ray Or cutt, operator of the parking stand, later told police the man was an American about 30 years old and was dressed In dirty grey suit and brown slouch hat. His face, Orcutt said, was heavily tanned. ' Members of the girl's family dis counted any possibility that June entered the kidnaper's car voluntar ily, saying she was afraid of kidnap ers and only recently remarked "chil dren have to be careful." They de scribed her as shy and hot of a type who would take up with strangers. ! Tonight will offer the last opportu nity to Elks to nominate officers In the lodge, so a large attendance Is ur-M for the session. In addition ttf nominations, a large list of candi dates will be considered. The election of officers will be held one week from tonight. BERRY PRICE EXPECTED 4 TO 5 CENTS PORTLAND, On., April as.
