Only recently, he sp.id police arrested a truck dViv- er in an eastern city and on sarc'img ins nome loumi seven f nl!y-U:;uied side arms, including one government pistol. Hoover said the menace of un controlled firearms stares the po liceman in the face, every day. "One of the solutions to the problem. ' he s"il, "consists of tiehteninJ? control.-; over firearms plugging loophrdes, and requiring owners of weapons to register them with police. "The police should have au thmitv to investigate applicants f. un permits and determine whether there appears to be any ulierior motive. Tersons should be prohibited from transferrins; possession of weapons without P'dice department s"netions. State Laws Vary "Ever.-.- ec.nsideration should be "riven to guarding properly all r.r s?na?s and national guard armor ies to prevent lootin.g or h'lrglar iizir.g.. It is only through effec tive control of firearms that the public can be properly protected." Staie legislation on firearms va ries tremendously. Fifteen states lack specific legislative restric tions" "on possession and transfer of machine guns. Some states prohibit all private persons and corporations, with the exception 'of utilities, from possessing ma chine guns. In some states a pf .son nay own one without even ! having to secure a license, i Hoover recalled that Clyde and iMelvin Ra-rrow. who terrorized ;the midwest in 19J, In-tl obtainod i !5row:iing autanfa t ie?-' rifles -and j 4 5-caIiber automatic pistols in i burglaries of national guard arm iories in Illinois "and Oklahoma. victions for such fin 1934, automatic pistols weretrlode things into action, ntl the js'olen from the' headquarters com Ipany, Xinth Infantry," Fort Sam Houston.

That's the the time the "Daddy of 'Em All" Cheyenne's annual Frontier Days celebration comes vigorously to life, awakening with rip-roaring whoops and hollers. This year, it's the Golden anni- versary, and that means, accora- ing to R. J. Hoffman, program chairraar, that the only strings attached to the Western extraya- ganza will be the lassos which settle over the heads of the wad little docsries. Indians in Full Dress In other words. Hoffman de clares, the 50th annual celebra tion this year will be the best in ihf rmititrv bar none. The Iron- a tier Days observance, which hasn't rv;;i.-rl a norffiminncp bn inp' three wars, will be held the last full week in July, when weatn.er con- ditions are best, in this capital city, Cowbeys arc! cowgirls many of them the world's top rodeo per formers will start arriving in Cheyenne well in advance o'f the opening of th event July 23.

Storey will tell the men who man the 'chute gates to "Pour lem out." i Storey will will be announcing the rodeo events for his 21st year, and thoe three bombing words of his will result in some of the West's meanest and roughest, tousmestange animals being turn ed loose. J On the daily program at the arena will be bronc riding, bull-: dogErinsr, calf roping, steer roping, ; bull riding, bareback riding, trick and fancy riding and roping, buck-j ing contests, and all sorts of re lays, riding and race, including the always dangerous wild horse race,! cHinax'ng each show. j After each afternoon perform-! ance, the dust-begrimed cowpokes i may be found standing around on downtown street corners in little groups, talking over the day's per- ' formances, maybe quietly discus-i sing a pai'tner who was hurt in a fall that day. Visitors and. tourists j iarn, the hort. "Main Street" of! !
