London Police Seek Robbery Solution

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

have been an aide of the late
'Lucky' Luciano, the gangster

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

$676,000 in cash and was urging

that at one point a frogman
searched a 12-foot deep pond.

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

"from a distance ... in safety."

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

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

the whole ambush gang did not
stay at the farm and the indica
tions were that those who did

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

two automobiles for cash with

Employers Might
Get Reduction
In Assessment
SALEM fUPIl - A $6 million
tax reduction for Oregon employ
ers appeared likely, State Employ
ment Commissioner David H.
Cameron said Friday.
Cameron said it appeared the
state unemployment trust fund is
big enough to permit the depart
ment to allow experience rates, to
pn intn affaM novt .lm 1
Employers have been paying a
2.7 per cent tax on their payrolls
since 1958. Under the new sche
dule next year's rates will range
irom 1.8 to 2.7 per cent.
Employers have been paving $38
million a year in unemployment
taxes, Cameron said. .The pro
posed new rates would bring in
$32 million a year.
the unemployment fund now
has $67.2 million. The law says
if the fund balance is more than
$61 million on Aug. 31, the de
partment shall reduce the tax
rates for the following year.
Ihe 1.8 per cent rate would be
paid by employers with a small
unemployment claim experience,
and those with a large volume of
unemployment claims would pay
me nigner rale.
NEW IDEA Thero isn't another one like it on any fair
grounds in California. It is built like a merry-go-round,
with a complete kitchen in the center. Customers will be
served under the wide eaves where horses and tigers,
elephants and zebras usually bob up and down. It will be
completed in time for the opening of the Tulelake-Butte
Valley Fair September 8, 9 and 10 at Tulelake.
