8jJ and Miss Amma D. Graham,
aacman of the U. D. C. committee
in charge oi furtherance of the
I plans, appeared before the Board
I ol County Commissioners and pcrI
aaded the members to purchase
I Cie home site, including 70 acres of
ze original tract once owned by
jne of North Carolina's most d:sB
ayuished statesmen. Miss Graham
I and her assistants borrowed the
on the strength of the
B ccry's promise, secured a deed for
the property which was turned over
I to the county. A few weeks ago the
I commissioners paid the loan and
I now the property is owned by the
H citizens of Warren county.

the shape they were when inhabited
by the North Carolina statesman.
Eiorts are being made to have as
fflucA of the original Macon furniture
as possible returned to the
tone, and where this can not be
a'iaed, to substitute furniture of

it for this historical purpose,
and added that such donation
5ould bear a marker with the name

Dew that such gifts would be in
nature of a sacrifice, but felt
that the worth of the cause would
ampensate.

John Dillinger,
Notorious Outlaw,
Killed In Chicago
Chicago, July 22 ?John Dillinger,
arch criminal of the age, was shot
dead tonight by a group of Department
of Justice operatives as he
walked out of a Chicago movie
theatre.
He whipped an automatic revolver
out of his pocket and had it
half raised when the operatives
loosed a withering blast of revolver
fire that dropped him mortally
wounded. He died a few minutes
later.
Fifteen operatives had surrounded
the theatre, after information had
reached Melvin H. Purvis, Chicago
agrent for the Department of Justice,
that Dillinger would attend the
show. Not a word was spoken as
the outlaw ran into the cordon of
officers.
Dillinger knew what was coming.
He gave a hunted look, reached
quickly into his pocket, and the
guns roared.
Swift Tempo
The end of the greatest manhunt
in contemporary criminal annals
came in the swift tempo in
which the notorious outlaw had
lived.
The federal men watched him
buy his ticket, and then for more
than two hours?"the longest two
hours I ever spent," Purvis said fhoofrn
cnrrnnndpd.
VliV V41VMV* V wv?o V
"It was late yesterday when I received
undercover Information that
Dillinger would attend the movie,
'Manhattan Melodrama/ at the
Biograph," Purvis said. "I hurriedly
made arrangements to surround
the theater with picked men
from among my investigators. They
were armed only with pistols. No
shotguns or machine guns were issued,
for I wished no general firing
that might endanger passersby."
Stationed At Theatre
"I stationed myself in my own
automobile, parked two doors south
of the theatre, on the same side of
the street, and facing north. My
men were stationed in doorways
about the theatre.
"It was shortly before 9 o'clock
when I first noticed Dillinger. He
was coatless, but wore a hat and
l
gold-rimmed spectacles.
He had passed my car before 1
saw him, but I have studied every
* available photograph of him sc
carefully that I recognized the bacn
> of his head immediately.
1 "As he bought a ticket, I got pro'
file and front views of him, and 1
* knew I was not mistaken. Those
two hours he spent in the theater

:OUNTY OF WARREN, N. C
Little Interest
Shown In County
Court On Monday
Little in the way of interest
transpired in Recorder's court on
Monday morning when evidence in
only one case was presented by Solicitor
Cromwell Daniel before
Judge W. W. Taylor. The other
cases on docket for this week were
postponed.
Isiah Daniel, negro who became
entangled in the meshes of the law
as the result of an altercation with
his wife and son, was found guilty
on an assault charge and was given
a road sentence of six months,
suspended on the condition that he
pay a $10 fine plus court costs.
According to evidence in court,
the trouble between the negroes deiiAlnnnrl
n 1 H ? TTan 'c*
I vciupcu xx uiu a x i-jcat-uiu uwn u
'failure to carry out his father's instructions
in regard to tieing out a
cow when his mother had given him
a counter-order in regard to going
to the spring for water.
The evidence disclosed that when
the father returned to the house
and found that his instructions had
not been carried out he struck his
wife over the head several times
with a stick for interfering with
his orders and that the son interceded
in behalf of the mother and
struck the father over the head
with a stick. The fracas ended with
the father chasing them all out of
the house, throwing wood at them
as they fled his wrath.
Apparently no ill feeling existed
between father, wife and son when
they entered court Monday morning.
All three said that they were
at peace with each other now, and
the wife asked that the court be ss
lenient as possible with her husband.
She testified that they had
been living together for fifteen
years and that this occasion was the
first in which "a fit of passion" had
caused him to strike her.
Robert Smith, striped negro convict
at the Warren County Prison
Camp, was brought into court to
face trial on an assault charge, but

Prison Camp Superintendent T. H.

The case against Allen Jones,
charging assault, was continued
until August 13.
Citizens Invited
To Attend Truck
Routing Meeting
Citizens of Warren county are
invited to be present on Saturday
afternoon, August 4; in the court
room at Warrenton when the Board
of Education will meet with school
principals to map out truck routes
for the school term of 1934-35,
Supt. J. Edward Allen said yesterday.
At this time citizens will be
asked to make objections, if any, to
the proposed routes, for the guidance
of the Board of Education in
making its recommendations to the
State School Commission.
The law requires every principal
of a school to which children go by
truck to be present, Mr. Allen said,
adding that it would be necessary
for every principal to appoint his
drivers before the meeting.
Superintendent Allen said that
the Board of Education had reason
to believe that the county would be
furnished with a number of large
i new trucks. Expecting this to be
true, the state will require the
county to operate the trucks on
! about $2500 less than the cost of
i truck operation last year. Mr. Allen
requests that under these con
ditions, the principals and school
' committeemen suggest what ,ir;y
1 the drivers should receive in oidei
: that they may feel enough interest
in the trucks to take care of them
and still not overspend the school
1 money.
s On Saturday morning, August 4
. all school principals and as many
teachers as are not too far away
will meet with the staff of the
State Department of Public Instruction
in the high school buildr
ings at Warrenton to map out the
instructional program. This is very
" important, Mr. Allen said. The
' meetings for the two races will be
1 held in the high school buildings al
? the same time.

Congressman Kerr
Thinks 20c Is Low
Enough Price
Washington, July 24.?Representitive
John Kerr of the Second
forth Carolina district, declared
onight that he had urged J. B.
lutson, head of the AAA tobacco
livision; to call another meeting in
Washington of flue cured tobacco
luyers at which growers could be
>resent in order that all interested
>arties can thresh out the flue cur d
tobacco situation.
Kerr said Hutson promised him
mch a meeting will be held within
he next few days.
Kerr sat in for two hours on the
ill-day conference today between
VAA officials and representatives of
sight large tobacco companies. He
rrged there be another marketing
tgreement, taking the position that
vithout the agreement last year1
;he farmers would not have receiv:d
8 cents a pound for their flue:ured
crop.
The North Carolina solon said at
;his time he did not care to dis:uss
the argument made by S. Clay
Williams of the R. J. Reynolds
Company to the effect that be:ause
of the anticipated small crop
;his year the foreign and domestic
iemand for flue-cured tobacco may
ie so great that the farmer will receive
more in the open market for
lis product than he would under a
narketing agreement.
~ Williams in his statement said the
auyers ''know no reason at this
stage to assume that there will be
iny need for a marketing agreement
to bring the farmers a parity
price for his tobacco.
Asked what he thought the parity
price to flue cured tobacco is at this
time, Kerr said at leasts 20 cents
ind probably more. Kerr was author
if the tobacco production control
bill and is regarded as an authority
on the subject.

his belief in the imperative need
for a 25-cent minimum.
"With an estimated crop of 330,000,000
pounds it will take a minimum
price of at least 25 cents a

Senator Bailey also furnished L.
