'BANDITS ROB BA'NK: 'SOGHTUYPOSSES ROACHDALE, Ind., Dec. 16.-(P) -Ten men armed with machine guns and sawed-off shotguns blew open the safe of Roachdale State bank early this morning and es- caped with $4,500 in cash and I bonds. The bandits severed tele- graph and telephone cables and the town was cut off from com- munication with other places for some time. Police and sheriff's posses were seeking them today. Before entering the bank, the men kidnaped F. R. Jarvis, nightl telegraph operator or the Balti- more & Ohio railroad, and locked him in the telephone office above the bank with Pauline Smith, 18, operator, and Pauline's sister, 7, who was spending the night with her. The robbers then broke into the power plant and threw the switch, cutting current off from all of Roachdale. After cutting all telephone cables, the robbers broke into the bank and blew the vault and fixtures to pieces with three or four charges of nitroglycerin. The entire front of the bank building was blown out. Bureau Plans Reform in Short-Term Prisons WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-(P)-A I double-edged drive to conquer the meanest problem of federal crime- cure proper housingof short-term prisoners, is under way in the fed- eral prison bureau. Persuading state and county au- thorities to clean up their jails and rationalize discipline is one angle of the attack; establishment of sev- en new federal jails is the other. Short-termers, may not be placed in penitentiaries, so the governmentE has had as many as 11,000 "board- ers" in local jails during 1931. Sanford Bates, celebrated pen- ologist directing the bureau, point- ed out today that jails taken as a whole have been generally con- demned as "dirty, unhealthy, and offering untold gpportunities for physical, mental and moral deter- ioration." "Here is a country with about 3,- 700 counties-each with a sepa- rately-elected sheriff, with a hit- or-miss and carelessly administered jail system, with little or no funds provided and with practically no local nublic sentiment for improve- ment." i SPECIAL THIS WEEK Suits Pressed,/ 25c.

Vandenberg Is Named to Important Office WASHINGTON, Dec. 16. - ()P} - Senator Vandenberg of Michigan has been elected chairman of the Republican steering committee of the senate, a most unusual honor for a member who has served less than four years. He succeeds sen- ator Goff of West Virginia, who re- tired from Congress, Vandenberg's first act was to write a letter to Senator Joseph T. Robinson, Democratic leader, pro- posing that all measures touching the industrial situation be treated in annon-partisan manner, and pledging equal consideration for Democratic and Republican bills with this regard. Housing, Diet Situation Worse Than in Former Years, Says Borman. (Rip Ten Ncws si'rvice>J URBANA, Ill., Dec. 16.-The fac- ulty committee on student affairs, of the University of Illinois and The Daily Illini, student publica- tion, have opened investigation of reported undesirable conditions ex- isting among students regarding both diet and housing. Members of thie committee head- ed by Prof. Edward Berman of the department of economics reported that during the present year their attention has been called to the conditions which are much worse in some respects than those which have been known to exist in years past. Questionnaires will be sent to all students requesting information on their incomes, living conditions, financial status and prospects, em- ployment situation, and immediate needs. After analyzing these ques- tionn yres, the need for a means of remedying. any pool situation will be determined. The feasibility of a bureau on student living standards will be ex- amined, and if found necessary, steps will be taken to establish one. The student loan fund will also be probed with a view to determining where to get more capital on which to operate. Prof. Jesse S.

He expressed the belief that "no effective plan of disarmament can be rhade unless Russia is taken into the family of nations," and said that, had he been a delegate to the Geneva Disarmament Conference in 1927, he would have accepted Russia's offer wholly to disarm her- self at its full value. He predicted that any effort on the part of the United States to purchase world peace by cancella- tion of World War debts with the promise that the nations of Europe abolish their armies and navies would result in failure., He said that "Europe today is a military camp, an arsenal of guns and munitions," Mr. McAdoo re- marked that it "is a singular fact that amid all the world-wide talk of disarmament", only one great nation has made an official pro- posal for complete and universal} disarmament on ]and and sea and in the air." i Now For A Great / PRE-HOLIDAY SP..ECIAL!
