London Police Seek Robbery Solution Bv United Press Inlernotlonal Iwanted to interview a "man who LONDON (UP1) A London visited Britain from Italy recent- newspaper said Saturday night police havo identified both the mastermind and the gang leader who 6taced the record $7.3 mil lion royal mail train robbery. Be lief crew Scotland Yard was close to solving the case. The News of the World in its first Sunday edition said the man who actually led the gang with great precision was an "ex army type with commando train ing" and referred to him as "the major." It did rot use a nickname for the 'mastermind who planned his tory's greatest cash robbery and aid jpolice would not disclose the names of either "the major" or the mastermind. A police spokesman said the information "had not come from Scotland Yard" and declined to comment on the report. The News of the World said "the major" left behind tools is sued by tlie army when he fled from the gang's hideout at an is olated farm in Leatherslade The report backed up a story in the London Evening News that ly" and said "he is believed to have been an aide of the late 'Lucky' Luciano, the gangster America deported.' Police meanwhile raided Lon don area homes and scoured woods and fields in a massive hunt for more of the loot and be lief grew that the leaders of (he well-executed robbery had goofed later in a moment of panic, So far the Yard has recovered $676,000 in cash and was urging Britons In loin a nationwide treasure hunt" for the remain der. The search was so thorough that at one point a frogman searched a 12-foot deep pond. Friday's discovery of $282,000 in a Surrey woods led police to Vuwn tw Vinnknnfps were be coming too hot to handle and that ilthouch the robbery was a masterpiece of professionalism the plans for disposing of the loot had gone awry. We feel that there is booty to be found in all sorts of places," detective superintendent Malcom Fewtrell said. "In fact we know it will be. We have found these police had found "items whichlpeople out earlier than they wan- orieinated from the army" at the hideaway and that Scotland Yard was confident of finduijr the ringleader, the gang and the rest of the booty. "The net is closing," it said. "Detectives are closer than ever to the mastermind." The Evening News said detec tives visited several army camps with their discoveries jn an at tempt to trace members of the gang. The News of the World's re port indicated police believe the "mastermind" himself did not take part in tho great train rob bery itself but pulled the strings "from a distance ... in safety." It also said Scotland Yard ed and I have no doubt that this money Is embarrassing to them. Police said that a yacht cnus ins in the English Channel had been cleared when it checked Into Folkestone Harbor Friday night, but a senior detective said Scot land Yard iiad not ruled out tho possibility the robbers may try to smuggle the loot to the continent. Asked whether he believed more arrests were imminent, Fewtrell said. "I hope they are. There is no reason at all to lose hope." Fewtrell said an appeal to the general public for information on signs of freshly dug soil where money might be buried had kept the night shift busy at the police manhunt headquarters and that at least 20 telephone tips were received. Fewtrell, chief of the Bucking-, hamshire police, said his men were still continuing an inch-by-inch search of the Leatherslade farm, the bandit hideout near the scene of the Aug. 8 train rob bery. He said fingerprints had been found. Fewtrell said food in bulk was found at the farm and that the origin of this was being investi gated. He said he was positive the whole ambush gang did not stay at the farm and the indica tions were that those who did cleared out only eight hours be fore police swooped on tlie farm Tuesday when tipped off by a lo cal cattle herdsman. Police were cheered by some of the amateurism which crept into the robber's operations after their skillful robbery. They said two of the men ar rested at Bournemouth Wednes day practically begged to be tak en into custody. First they bought two automobiles for cash with five pound ($14) notes although both were dressed like workmen. Then thnv stormed Mrs. Emily Clark, 57, a grey-haired widow and offered her three months rent in advance on a garage in a resort town where strangers rarmlv snenri inorn Ulan a muni of weeks.
