Fatal Consequences Os
Buying Away From Home
Pointed Out To Farmer
If He Takes His Money Away From Hometown Now,
How Will Hometown Be Able To Buy Farmer’s Sur
plus Produce? Is Question Business Men Propound
Destructive consequences of the
farmer, as well as others, in buying
away from their home community ar e
pointed out in an appeal coming- up
out of Eastern North Carolina. The
appeal reminds the farmers that if
the.' send their money somewhere else
now and do not patronize their local
Menu town merchants, they can hardly
expect the hometown to have the
money later on to buy the farmer’s
produce when he brings it to market.
Following is a letter from the East
ern North Carolina Association, with
headquarters at Greenville, of which
Samuel F. Dickenson is secretary,
setting forth conditions that are con
siileied little short of alarming. It
is being sent broadcast throughout th e
section to newspaper editors and
chamber of commerce officials. It
follows:
Our section is experiencing, one of
the greatest tobacco markets, tu his

Federal and Local Police
Not Aiding Each Other
Over the Nation
I
By CHARLES P. STEWART
(Central Press Staff Writer)
Washington. Oct. 30.—Talk of law
and orders triumphs over organized
criminality, as a result of the com
comparatively recent supposed part
nership between. Federal and local
police, are mighty largely the bunk.
Not that law and order hasn’t been
increasingly triumphant of late, but
the widely heralded national and local
police partnership doesn’t exist.
The “feds” and the ’locals’’ arc ri
vals of one another instead. It isn’t
a friendly rivalry, either. There are
many evidences that the feds are in
clinedt o let a suspect escape rather
than help the locals to convict him;
and vice versa.

LINDBERGH CASE
Illustratively, it is noticeable that,
Uncle Sam’s authorities declared a
hands-off policy in the matter of the
Lindbergh kidnaping case as soon as
l it rename apparent that the author
ities of the state of New Jersey were
determined to do their own prosecut
ing of Bruno R. Hauptmann. This,
however, was explained by the feds
on the ground that the Jersey state
police had withheld 100 per cent help
from THEM, earlier in the quest for
the kidnaper.
Clearly here was an instance in
which federal and statd sleuths failed
from the outset, to co-operate.
Again, in Ohio. Police Chief John
Fultz of Wellsville refused to sur
rendei Adam Richetti—said to have
been the late “Pretty Boy” Floyd’s
chief lieutenant—to federal justice for
trial on charge of killing a fed r.i
Kansas City, because Fultz had a
| comparatively minoi charge to press
; against the prisoner at Wellville. The
feds were outspokenly indignant at
Fultz’s attitude, but Fultz’s view was
that her eally was entitled to all the
credit for cornering Pretty Boy—after
which the fed.s broke into the situa
tion. on the strength of information
he had supplied them with, killed the
outlaw and grabbed every bit of the
glory for the performance, without so
much a saying. “Thank you’’ to him,
for what lie did.
The federal authorities, then, not
having had much assistance (so they
say) from the New Jersey authorities
! in the Lindbergh kidnaping matter
are not overly enthusiatic as to help
ing the New Jersey authorities to con
vict the accused Lindbergh kidnaper.
