Geora A. Evel- ing, special invesugaior oi me State's attorney's office, an nounced today.

The Ford car in Curtis' posses sion when arrested has been identified as that of G. S. Holden of Waterloo. It was practically new when stolen from Holden's garage, Waterloo authcrrrtres say, and had 300 miles on its. speedometer.

When taken from Curtis 600 miles were registered. Evidence uncovered here tends show Curtis may have participated in the robbery and shooting at the grocery store of Moses Valiquette, 2429 Ninth street, Rock Island, Nov. 23. Investigator Ebeling states that impressions the floor of the car taken from Curtis are that of a cash register the measurements of that taken from the Valiquette place, Two men attempted to holdup Valiquette, who hid behind an ice box while two robbers fired num- erous shots at him. Unable get cash, they grabbed the cash register and escaped.

The register was empty. Waterloo police claim that prior the Valiquette job, numerous holdups were attempted in Waterloo and shooting similar to that here were reported. When Curtis was arrested, a satchel containing burglar's tools, revolvers and masks was found his possession. He maintained silence throughout questioning by authorities here. He has been faced by many who have been held up but was not identified in any case.

Booked by police after his apprehension, Curtis gave names Ray Miller and Frank Thorpe addition to others. Plates on the Ford car did not correspond to the machine, leaving the sup position that they too were stolen.
