There were a few wider set backs. Pivotal steels, rails, utilities, farm implements and rubbers were among the principal sufferers. At the same time offerings were far from volum inous.' Selected mining Issues and special ties managed to buck the trend. Ris ing metal prices both here and abroad stimulated the former and actual and prospective company pro fits brought support for the latter. There was little In the news to Inspire liquidation, brokers said, but notable Inability of the market's bell wethers to make headway In the past few sessions tended to discourage trading forces.

Descriptions of the robbery were broadcast from the i Portland police and the Oregon state police radio stations. Sheriff Leland Morrow of Clark county reported from Vancouver that his office was on the alert for a yel low coupe as well as the sedan. The robber met us at the door as Qregorlus and I came In at 8:30 a. m- said Beck. "He was very nerv ous and 1 thought he either had been hopped up or had been drinking. "As we opened thu door, be stuck a gun in my stomach and told us to come In and He down on the floor. The Janitor was bound up on the floor In the back room. The rob ber had come in the bank at 7:30 a. m.. with the Janitor. Just how he got In, I don't know because when we untied the Janitor he beat It. He was scared to death. The robber had light ropes already cut and he tied our hands and feet. As we lay there, he asked me when the vault would open. I tried to stall him and finally told him It would open at 9:05 a. m. He told us If we did anything he didn't like he would blow us all over the floor.' I told him we were ready to follow his In structions. Put Money In Pocket When the vault opened he uncled me and made me go In and get the money. He was careful to make me handle everything, touching nothing except the currency when I banded i It to him. He didn't have a sack but ' stuffed the money in his pockets. As he left, he warned us again that he would kill us If we spread an alarm and then locked me In the vault. He still had some money In : his hands when he walked out the front door. People across the street i saw him walk about a block. They ! didn't pay much attention, apparent-' ly thinking he was a customer. About r a block away he started to run and apparently got In an automobile and headed west. "While we were on the floor he told us he was a 'desperate man' and waa robbing the bank because he needed the money. "We haven't completed a check yet but he got around $20,000, probably a little less than that." Schilling HUNGARIAN PAPRIKA wmTi.atro. AIM. o. UPt BUT- TEH-Prtnta.
