John Dillinger of Mooresville, now with a carnival in Canada, had had many more. Children of Mrs. Hancock played about the bungalow porch while the parents talked of the exploits of their dead relative. They recalled the time a year ago when a Star reporter awakened them from a lawn sleep and told them of John's death at the hands of Federal men in Chicago. Laughed at Stories.

"John laughed at many of the newspaper stories," said Everette Hancock. "When he was here he picked up a paper and read an account of a bank robbery in another state that was charged to him. Ho often told me that if I read of any "small fry" jobs I might know he was not involved. "He said that he might rob a few banks, but he said that bankers had robbed other people, so why worry. He told me also that while he might hold up a bank he was not a killer.

John always carried a belt inside his shirt that held at least $2,000. He had a ruby ring worth $500 that he always wore. We never saw that after he was killed. "We have had private informationthat I can't tell you about to the effect that when In Chicago John never was armed. We believe that the gun was planted on him by the Federal men after he was shot.

And they shot him down when he didn't have a chance we won't forget that, either. It would have been easy to capture him there and take him to prison, but they hsd to kill him. Salvation Army Head Writes. "Evelyn Frechette told us that he told her after the Wisconsin break that he was going where they won't expect me at all." After that alleged statement he came to Mooresville for the visit with his parents, posed beside the farm house with a real machine gun and his wooden gun, and engaged in other buffoonery. Among the letters of sympathy received, the family said, was one from Evangeline Booth, head of the Salvation Army.

Mr. and Mrs. Hancock said they had not heard anything regarding the whereabouts of Mary Kinder, former feminine member of the Dillinger gang, for some time. The Kinder woman was prominent at the funeral rites for Dillinger a year ago. "SORT OF FORGOT JOHN." Dillinger Sr.

Blames Himself, Prison Term for Son's Doings. WINNIPEG, Manitoba, July A 71-year-old father with little wrinkles about his eyes sat in a cir cus tent here today and told an at' tentlve crowd that crime does not pay. The soft-spoken speaker was John Dillinger Sr father of the notorious criminal, John Dillinger, whose life was blasted but by the revolver lire of Department of Justice men in Chicago July 22, one year ago. "Farmer Jawn," as l.e is known In Mooresville, his home, had a little tougher time than usual with his lecture today. It was the eve of the anniversary of his son death.

But he went ahead with his advice against living a life of crime, The elder Dillinger made few ex cuses for his wayward boy. He put most of the blame for his son's career upon his own shoulders, The rest of it he put on the long penitentiary term that John drew after his first holdup. Speaking in slow, quiet tones, the elder Dillinger told his audience In the circus tent how he taught John to play ball, how he Instructed him in catching his first fish, and how he had tutored him In other boyish activities. Trouble started, he said, in his son's life "when I sort of forgot John and left him alone too long. Auxiliary Pair of Legs Doesn't Bother Chicken fSneci'o.

Dillinger, is appearing with a carnival, the United Shows of America, in Winnipeg, Canada, exhibiting himself as the father of America'3 public enemy No. 1. Each day finds the Mooresville man making the same short talk entitled "Crime Does Not Pay," while the notorious criminal's young half-sisters, Doris and Frances, sell carnival tickets and pictures of John Dillinger, the na tional bully. Picture postcards come from the Dillingers to Mooresville people almost every day and so interested are members of the outlaw's family in carnival life that they have signed a second three months' contract. Bad Luck Comes With Winter.

Things went along in simple, routine manner at the little Dillinger home near Mooresville after the bullet-riddled body of the desperado was buried last July in Crown Hill cemetery in Indianapolis. But during the winter bad luck dogged John Dillingers father. Fire destroyed the only barn on the sixty-acre farm, and there was little feed for horses and cows. A shed was built for two cows, but Mr. Dillinger was forced to sell other live stock.

Implements, too, were burned, so the elderly man decided to rent the farm to his brother, Everett Dillinger, for the summer. Many times during the last year the elderly man went to a shelf in the farmhouse kitchen, and taking down a package tied in brown paper, fandled bullet-riddled keepsakes the dothe3 John Dillinger wore when he was shot down by Federal men. A blood-stained shirt, a pair of white oxfords and black socks, and a pair of blue striped shorts are all the outlaw's possessions left for his father. The clothing is just as it was the day Coroner Welsh of Cook county. Illi nois, handed it to the elder Dillinger.

The blood on the once white shirt has dried around the bullet holes, and the other garments are stilt with blood, long since turned grayish brown. Many Sleepless Nights. The Mooresville farmer spent many sleepless nights after his son was buried, reliving the days when John Dillinger was a husky boy and the days the younger Dillinger spent as a twentieth century Jesse James. Mooresville citizens scarcely shared with the farmer bis resentment toward socity, born of the belief that society was Indifferent to John H. Dillinger and that society mishandled the criminal.

The story of John Dil-lim er's escapade with Ed Singleton, during which Frank Morgan, Mooresville grocer, was hit over the head with a pipe, has been published many times. But the story of stealing an automobile owned by O. P. Macy, the story of the criminal's brags about loaded guns for certain "Jobs," and other similar stories are known only to Mooresville people. Dillinger served eight years in prison for assaulting and robbing the grocer.

With a "model" prison record to his credit, the desperado was paroled and "went straight" only until he had occasion to participate In the robbery of the State Bank ot Massachusetts Avenue in Indianapolis. Arrested In Dayton, he soon was free again when Charles Makley snd Harry I'ierpont, escaped convicts, liberated him from the Lima 'O.) jail over Sheriff Jesse Barber's body. Hurried About Country. From then on for months, John Dillinger, Mooresville'! bad boy who forsook a plow for a machine gun, hurried from Chicago to Florida, and from there to other states shooting people who got In the way. Ills father heard the public enemy occasionally, by letter, special messenger and even personal appear ance.

But the old man never knew from one day to the next when his rsdlo would shriek the news of John death at the hands of Ih law. When newt of Ltilllnger'! capture in Tucson, was brought to the father, he wept. "I guess they finally got him," he said. But the harum-scarum bully was not penned up long. There was an airplane ride from Tucson to Chicago, after which he was placed in jail in Crown Point, under the eagle eye of Sheriff Lillian Holley.

But in the spring, when a young man's fancy turns to getting out of jail, John Dillinger flew the coop with the greatest of ease and his father has the wooden gun to prove the degree of ease. In Two-Gun Pose. On the eventful day of the family reunion in Mooresville, when fried chicken and coconut cream pie were features of the menu, John Dillinger posed boldly for snapshots In front of the little white farmhouse, the wooden gun in one hand and a machine gun in the other. "Those were the weeks the months when I would think I hear John calling to me to help him," Mr. Dillinger told his neighbors.

"I would imagine that I could see him running toward me. I don't suppose anybody will ever know the pain that I suffered during the whole affair. How I wish John might have lived a worth while life and have been living now to help me." A far cry from petty thieving and amateur assault, the hysterical climax came to John Dillinger's reign of terror just a year ago. The outlaw was shot down on July 22, 1934, as he left the Biograph Theater in Chicago after seeing a picture, "Man hattan Melodrama. Thousands Saw Body.

Thousands of people rushed to the morgue to get a glimpse of the criminal's riddled body; thousands more were on the self-appointed reception committee for the hearse which brought his body back home to Mooresville. And now his body lies moldering in the grave, alongside that of his mother who died without knowing that her son would become pubiic enemy No. 1. Many people still stop at the Dillinger home to take photographs and to look through the house where John Dillinger once lived. Fan letters still come for the Dillingers and the father has been showered with gifts green, blue and white shirts with neckties to harmonize; handkerchiefs, garters, souvenir dishes from various cities and, perhaps most interesting of all, a tinted picture of himself.

Letters from Cal cutta, India, and from Australia are among those from more distant points received by the pillingers. On the eve of the first anniversary of the news from Chicago which made the world gasp with relief, Mooresville citizens rejoice with the nation that a social fester is partially healed.

BLOOMINGTON, July hundred or more men continued today to search the woods and fields of Greene county for Charles Car- michael, 61-year-old Monroe county i farmer, who disappeared mysten- ously Friday morning. With the Carmichael cemetery, southwest of Stanford, where his au-! tomobile was found Friday morning, as a focal point, the searchers spread the hunt for miles around.

Once before, while beset by financial difficulties, he left home for a few days without giving word of his departure. Carmlchael's bride of two months took part In the search. A cave and creek were searched but yielded no trace of the missing man. Sheriff Jack Bruner investigated a report that Bert Dye of Little Cincinnati had disappeared the same day, In an endeavor to determine if there was any connection with Car-michacl's disappearance.
