Bloody Trail of
Dillmger's Gang
Due for a Finish
Five Thousand Police Officers E:
Icrmined to Capture or Kill
Han Hunt in 5 States.
Chicago. Reports, officially
denied, persisted here that 100
crack agents of the federal bu
reau of investigation were mass
ing here to work from secret
headquarters until John Dillin
ger is captured or killed.
Chicago. rive thousand police of
ficers in five states, every one ot
them armed to the teeth, were heart
ened with the words of federal au
thorities that the end of John Dil
linger's bloody trail was in sight.
Government men in charge of the
manhunt reviewed their accomplish
ments in tracking Dillinger during
the past week and declared it only a
matter of days, perhaps hours, before
the outlaw would be killed or cap
tured, probably killed.
Telephone calls, telegrams and per
sonal visits from citizens came at the
rate cf hundreds an hour to the anti
crirae directors ot half a dozen cities
reporting Dillinger to be here, there,
everywhere, in Wisconsin, Minnesota,
Indiana. Ohio, Ilinois. From the
many scraps of information reaching
them authorities sifted cut what
they believed to he cf value and de
duced that Dillinger and two or more
of his outlaws had reached Minne
sota in the neighborhood of Minne
apolis and St. Taul. Another group
of the seven Dillinger outlaws flee
ing after northern "Wisconsin gun
battles that cost two live;:-, were be
lieved to have gone in the opposite
direct icn. Watches were kept for
them in Indiana, Ohio and Illinois.
"Will Have Him Before Long."
"We've got more evidence to work
on than ever before in hunting Dil
linger," said Melin II. Purvis, chief
of the U. S. division of Investigation
here, "and we'll have him before
long. His trail is getting broader
every minute."
Included in the 5,000 officers un
der orders to shoot the notorious fug
itive on sight were national guards
men, sheriffs and their deputies, lo
cal authorities, state police and fed
eral agents.
One of the clues that federal men
considered of most value was a re
port that a maroon colored automo
bile carrying several men was seen
speeding thru Muncie Ind., toward
the east. The license numbers of the
machine were the same as those for
which St. Paul police had broadcast
a warning.
The report from Muncie caused ap
prehension at Columbus, O., where
three of Dillinger's former pals,

Time now to drain out winter-worn
iZEl oil and change to heavier grades. When
you change, keep sludge out of your engine.
1 1 clogs oil lines, hinders lubrication, fouls fil
ters, makes valves sluggish. It causes ring3
to stick and pump oil. It is the greatest
cause of high motor-oil consumption.
Keep sludge out by using IsosVis "D' the
Anti-Sludge Motor Oil. It keeps rings lively
and free, reducing oil consumption to the
minimum. That's why you add to it less fre
quently between drains.

WARN KITE FLIERS
Kite filers v.-ere warned this week
not to fiy kites near electric wires
by E. C. Hild, general safety direc
tor of the Iowa-Nebraska Light and
rower company. The warning car.:c
in the form of r. set of safety rules for
kite fliers issued by Mr. Hild after
a small boy narrowly escaped serious
injury a few days ago when the kite
he was flying became entangled with
charged electric wires owned by the
company.
Mr. Hild's rules for the safe kite
flier are as follows:
1. A safe kite flier never flies his
kite near electric wires of any kind.
Kites with metal parts are danger
ous if they fall across metal wires.
2. lie never uses wire or twine
that has wire in it for kite, string.
Wet string is dangerous because it
conducts electricity.
3. He never runs across streets or
highways while flying his kite.
4. He never climbs poles or trees
to knock down kites caught in wires.
