Anaheim Merchants Warned to Watch For Much-Wanted 29-Dollar Forger Have you seen the 29-dollar man? Your assistance has been solicited by Police Chief Mark Stephenson and police investigators thru-out California in identifying and apprehending this unknown man. He has been cashing fictitious checks not only in Orange county but a entire state of California and Eastern States since June 1947. He has recently passed checks in Anaheim, Newport Beach and Garden Grove—in the past month—according to the sheriff's office. Law enforcement agencies have used every means to take this man out of circulation—with negative results. Now you, the merchants and potential victims are the last hope in trapping this elusive criminal who has defrauded the Orange County merchants of thousands of dollars. You may be next—watch for this man. He is back again. Here is his description—round face (very prominent), pleasant acting, hairy chested American male 40 to 45 years 180 to 200 lbs. dark hair five nine inches to six feet tall, muscular build—not fat—so ordinary his victims seldom can describe him. He passed more than 450 checks between June, 1947, and May, 1952, and countless others to this date using approximately 336 aliases. He has been known to strike any month of the year, any day of the week and almost any hour of the day. His favorite time is at the peak hour of business. He particularly like ladies ready-to-wear—children's dress shops—small groceries, feed stores, garden supply centers, paint stores, hard-something of current interest about the person whose name he uses as maker of the checks. He has been consistent in the use of doctors' names. Under the heading of doctors, let us remember — osteopaths, chiropractors. Although he started "business" at -29, he has pushed up to the $80 and $120 category with variations. His handwriting is sometimes disguised, but carries some of the main characteristics: Numbered over 100, but less than 500, a long comma after the day of the month, any two names as payee, never a middle name or initial. The amount is always for even dollars, followed by a period. And the symbol 00 00 or 00 100. The written amount is always followed by a long snakey or wavy line extending to the end of the space. He has never been known to use the symbol 00 000 on this line. His method is always the same—does not retain in a locality for but a short time. Authorities say the subject will run like a deer if he realizes he is under suspicion. They say make every effort to hold him—the is the subject of warrants all over California and in many Eastern states. Motels—hotels—auto courts to be alerted. Say the law enforcement agencies: "Let's take this man out of circulation." Draft Quota to Be Raised in July By ELIZABETH TOOMEY United Press Staff Correspondent COLUMBIA, Mo. — Same scene: Ten years later. A long-legged blonde lounges in the house mother's easy chair. She looks disconsolate as girls come down the winding stairs in the adjoining hall to meet their dates. "I was shafted," she says and sighs deeply. "You were what?" "I got the shaft," she says patiently staring at a streak in the sorority house wallpaper where the upstairs shower had overflowed, as it does every year. It's happened. You've come back to visit a familiar place after what seems only a few years. You feel the same. The girls you see look like other University of Missouri coeds you used to know living in the same rooms. But you no longer speak the language. You swallow your pride. "Would you spell that, please?" The blonde looks up, bored. "S-H-A-F-T," she says. "Why?" "Does that mean... you begin, and then the housemother comes to your rescue." Jilted "That's what the girls say now when they've been jilted," she explains sympathetically. "It really is a rather new expression." "So what else is new?" you ask casually, trying to slip into some kind of slang. "There's nothing new around this dumb place," the blonde says. "Not even the boys. There must be more good looking men around SOME place than they have on this campus." Just then a brunette wearing a short white organdy formal and bright green satin pumps comes and stands. He passed more than 450 checks between June, 1947, and May, 1952, and countless others to this date using approximately 336 aliases. He has been known to strike any month of the year, any day of the week and almost any hour of the day. His favorite time is at the peak hour of business. He particularly like ladies ready-to-wear—children's dress shops—a small grocery, feed stores, garden supply centers, paint stores, hardware, gift shops, nurseries. He has not been known to hit large chain markets. He never has any identification with him, using the excuse his other clothing is home. He represents himself as a carpenter, painter, roofer, cement worker, gardner, doing work for the party whose name is forged as the maker of the check. This is usually the name of a doctor, a contractor, real estate man or any well known business or professional man in the area where the check is to be cashed. He makes it a point to learn THERE IS NOTHING LIKE Z-I-T FOR ACHES AND PAINS You wouldn't be satisfied with a 1914 automobile—would you? But you're still using the old time 1898 liniment or analgesic. Why not try Z-I-T, the improved 1954 model analgesic? 1. Z-I-T IS PURE WHITE. 2. Z-I-T IS GREASLESS. 3. Z-I-T IS STAINLESS. 4.

Z-I-T HELPS NATURE RELIEVE THAT CONDITION QUICKLY. TRY Z-I-T—YOU'LL FEEL BETTER FASTER. Draft Quota to Be Raised in July WASHINGTON (UP) — The Defense Department announced today that the Army will draft 23,000 men in July, a boost of 5000 over the recent monthly calls. The increase has no connection with the Indochina crisis, it was said. The Army has been drafting 18,000 men a month since last February. The increase scheduled for July will bring the figure back to the monthly rate which prevailed for several months through last January. Higher calls will be necessary beginning in July, start of fiscal 1955, because of the two-year up-and-down cycle fixed by two-year draft terms. Large numbers of men were drafted when the Korean War started in June, 1950. On alternate years since then, the Army has had to have higher draft calls to replace men released from service. A result, defense officials said, the higher draft calls starting July 1, are necessary despite the fact that the number of men in the Army is still being reduced under the administrations "new look strategy." Army strength, about 1,500,000 men at the start of the year, is scheduled to be down to 1,423,000 by the end of next month and eventually will be reduced to about one million men under present plans. So what else is new?" you ask casually, "trying to slip into some kind of slang. "There's nothing new around this dumb place," the blonde says. "not even the boys. There must be more good looking men around SOME place than they have on this campus." Just then a brunette wearing a short white organdy formal and bright green satin pumps comes and stands in the doorway, waiting graciously to be admired. "Four petticoats," she says, and lifts the edge of her skirt to count them off. She looks at the blonde in her snug shorts and loose T-shirt and smiles kindly. Her date steps up behind her, looking scrubbed and too young in his white summer tux jacket, and shows only mild interest at the petticoat count. "It's all right," the girl says ignoring the boy and addressing the visitor with wilting respect. "We're pinned." The shafted blonde stood up. She was well stacked, as they used to say in the olden days of the early 1940s. "Nice to have met you," she said politely. "I think I'll go wach television. I guess you didn't." No, we didn't have a television set when I was in school. Wanna make something of it? There's No Substitute for Paid Circulation.

MCCANN United Press Staff Correspondent President Syngman Rhee of the Republic of Korea is not quite sure how old he is, but he always is sure what he wants. In today's election for 203 members of the South Korean General Assembly Rhee wants a two-thirds majority. American political experts predict that he will fail. They say he may not even get a majority. But even if he does fail, it will not be for want of trying. And in any event, Rhee will remain Korea's head man. His four-year term as president still has two years to run, and he rules with an iron hand. Rhee's political opponents charge that Rhee's Liberal Party used terroristic tactics in the election campaign. Police stood by while hoodlums beat up opposition campaign workers. The campaign manager of one opposition candidate died after a night in jail. The opposition said he died as the result of a beating. Silent Election Observers The government announced proudly that the election was being held "under the observation of the United Nations." But the observers could do little more than look on. They could not even speak Korean. However, American officials see good reason why Korean elections are tough. For one thing, Korea has had but six years of democratic government. For another, Korean leaders were reared in a tough school. China and Japan dominated their country for centuries. Rhee is as tough as they come. He has undergone torture, imprisonment and exile in 50 years of fighting for independence. Rhee knows he was born March 26 but is not sure which officially his age is 79. But congratulating officials last May 26, Rhee said: "I don't know whether I'm 79. Maybe I'm 80." After the death of an elder brother, Rhee became the only in his family for the sixth generation. Married to an Austrian woman, he no children and his line with him. Rhee entered the independent movement when he was 19, and was a leader at 20. Tortured Daily Rhee was arrested and tortured daily for seven months. He kept in handcuffs. His feet were shackled to the floor. A 20-pound weight was hung round his neck. His fingers were mashed. Light sticks were thrust under his fists. Look what you can buy at DIME-A-BARGA "STEP RIGHT UP, see the biggest display of values in town. Cost to you—a dime, 10c—yes, folks, only a DIME-A-BARGAIN".

After seven years in prison Rhee was freed under an amnesty. He came to the United States and studied at George Washington University, Harvard and Princeton. He spent about 30 years in exile altogether, many of them in the United States. He worked always for Korean independence, demanding recognition as President of the Korean provisional government which patriots had formed in Seoul in 1919.
