New Car Loaded With Accessories Auxiliary To Waverly Organization Formed With 34 Charter Members Mrs. Ward Sherwood President OIL LEASES ARE SAME AS MORTGAGE Of timely interest to the many Take Chrysler Coupe, Batteries, Tubes, Tools and Clothing From Broad Street Show Room Two Strangers Sus- pected Thieves entered the Williamson and Harris garage on Broad street this morning and thoroughly ransacked it, carrying away a large amount of loot in a new Chrysler car, a six-cylinder coupe valued at $975. The robbery was discovered oy Frank Brewster, a mechanic a few minutes before J. M. Williamson, one of the partners In the firm, arrived early this morning.

Entrance had been gained by breaking a window and then un locking the large main door. Mr. Williamson sent a crew of men to Buffalo yesterday to-drive in some new cars and he was not sure today whether these men had all of his dealers plates. It may be possible, he said, that the stolen car was without plates when driven out. The thieves took from 12 to 15 new batteries, a large number of tubes and a few casings, tools and a quantity of clothing belonging to Mr, Williamson.

They cut the air hose and used it to siphon gas from another car into the one they selected tor their trip. The stolen car was received only two days ago and Chief of Police Boyle was given a short demon stration in it yesterday. The chief is working on a promising clue which points to two strangers seen in Waverly yesterday. It was evident this morning that the thieves carefully packed their: plunder. They took the batteries out of- boxes and used newspapers in packing them into the Tumble seat compartment of the car.

Tubes were also taken out of the boxes. After the. men out they carefully closed the door. Williamson and Harris carry Insurance on the car but none on the other plunder. Tioga county farmers who have signed land leases with companies seeking oil, will be the decision of the state banking department recently sent to Thompklns county bankers at Ithaca to the effect that such a lease on the land is as much an incumbrance as any other mortgage or lien upon their property.

Now Famous ENFORCEMENT OF RUM LAWS AID WAR ON CRIME (Continued from Page One) ly important task of enforcing the criminal laws generally. The rami fications of the lawless element are such that prosecutions and convictions under the prohibition lawa tend to prevent the commission crimes as well." Prohibition Director Amos W. W. Woodcock plans to leave here next week to start a tour of all prohibition districts during which he win confer with state and local officials in an effort to coordinate more closely the local and federal enforcement activity. Woodcock revealed that he sees no possibility of complying wltn President Hoover's request to all departments that expenditures be decreased.

In his radio speech, Youngquist outlined the program which has been followed since prohibition enforcement was transferred on July 1 from the Treasury to the Justice Department.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 29. (UP) Last month William Glick, Wesi Philadelphia drygoods merchant, rented some property he owns at 140 North Sixtieth Street to a negro family. Last night his business establishment at 1402 North Fifty-Second Street was bombed. Police believe the bombing watt the result of Glick's renting to negroes in a white district.

Glick had received warnings over the telephone and by mail that his home would be damaged if he rented the Sixtieth Street property to negroes, he told police. He paid no attention to the threats, however, and on July 5 rented the property to Mrs. Lucille Quillen, a negress. An unsuccessful attempt to bomb Glick's store, over which he and his family lives, was made on July 5. Later, additional warning were sent him, all of which he disregarded until two weeks ago when, terrified, he sought police protection.

For two weeks his home has been guarded by three policemen. The guards were removed a few days ago when nothing happenei. but last night a stick of dynamite was thrown Into the rear of the store. Glick. who was alone in 1hi building at the time, was hurlert to the floor.

He was not seriously injured.
