FRANKLIN GALLAGHER, The SHERIDAN FAMILY, Holdup Nearly Perfect Crime Therefore Can Be Solved -Rice Continued from Page 1 write in his notebook the log of the collection at the Rubel or other places where the truck stopped. Studied Neighborhood Every street in the neighborhood had been long and carefully studied.

The time when the foot patrolman would pass the Rubel plant in making his rounds and the routine of the police radio patrols in the district must have been at the fingertips of the thugs. Incidentally, for a year or more London has been experimenting with a system of jumbling the routine of police patrolling sO that thieves can never be certain that, when a policeman or police passes a point the policeman or the car will not be back for a fixed period. I recommended the Lonexperiment in a letter to Police Commissioner O'Ryan on Dec. 16, 1933, shortly after it was announced he would take office with Mayor LaGuardia's administration, but nothing was done about it. Regular perodicity in patrolling is the greatest boon a police department can confer upon criminals.

The police, seem certain that the robbers their getaway, by rushirf: to the foot of St. in their three cars, and transferring themselves and the 13 sacks of notes to two motorboats, one a Seabright dory and the other a cabin cruiser. Something New In some respects that was the smartest element in the scheme. It was new and caught police flatfooted, for which they can hardly be blamed. Every new thing has to be thought up the first time.

That is one edge in favor of smart criminals. They can sting the police organization by a new trick at a given point, while the police, operating along an enormous front, cannot foresee all possible contingencies that may arise or all bright thoughts that might come to their opponents. The drawback to the boat getaway yesterday was this, if boats were really used: The boats extended the long line of communication and possible leaks. They had to be obtained and be provided with crews. Even if the boats escaped observation while fleeing, they had to land somewhere, presumably on a waterfront great distance from their starting place at the foot of Bay 35th on Gravesend Bay.

Waterfront folk are extraordinarily keen and retentive observers. Their minds automatically record the comings and goings of boats. Those they familiar with and those which are strange, and a large part of their conversation consists of casual gossip and remarks about such comings and goings. Waterfront Tips The best bet is that if the case is not broken by one of the crooks talking or spending, or both, too freely, especially around women, the first good tip will come from waterfront gossip. Offer of a stiff reward by the insurance companies that been stung to the tune of $427,000, with a guarantee of absolute immunity from ever appearing in the case under any circumstances, would seem to be an almost certain means of bringing tips on where the boats landed and who was in them, for the chances are that the boats separated.

After the boats landed it. is a good guess that motorcars were ready, and there would still further extend the line of communications and chances for leaks. Eventually the groups in the two boats. three or four in each, and perhaps others dropped in Brooklyn, did or will get together split the loot. That means more opportunities for accidental observation by zealous citizens, by police or by stool pigeons.

After the split comes every man for himself--and for booze, women and gambling, the three best friends of every police on this green footstool. Chances Increase The more perfectly planned a crime is the easier it is of solution, ordinarily, because planning involves logic and careful preparation, and smart policemen can trace preparations and reason as logically as the criminals. Also, the chances of solving an apparently perfect crime increase in proportion to the number of persons involved. In the field of crime the old axiom applies with reverse English and reads: In numbers there is weakness. Make a bet that the number, said to be 11, of those in Brooklyn's $427,000 robbery in cold cash will break the case sooner or later.

Some guesses at the make-up of the gang can be ventured: The first guess one member or the fingerman who spotted the job is a smart professional thief from Brooklyn and probably from the Bensonhurst neighbor hood where the robbery occurred. Inspiration for the job must have come from somebody with a criminal mind casually noting the fact that the guards on the truck let down their guard, so to speak, and were not incessantly vigilant when they reached the Rubel plant. He was the fingerman, who usually gets a cut of 10 percent that is religiously paid by smart criminals, because a doublecrossed fingerman can, and almost invariably does, finger the doublecrossers to the police. Seldom Betrayed The fingerman for a mob of professionals seldom takes part in the actual crime because he usually does so much of the observation, or "casing" work that his face may become familiar to those in the neighborhood of the crime, and his presence in the gang is a menace to his associates as well as to himself. Fingermen are seldom betrayed when jobs go wrong, if they have done their work properly, because the failures are not their fault.

Besides, if they do not take part in the crime, the criminals have no evidence against fingermen, who are paid off in cash.

American delegates to the Baptist World Alliance Congress held Germany, a and a Czechoslovakian" stowaway were among ship arrivals in port today. The band of 75 pieces hailed from Chieti, Italy.

It arrived on the Italian liner Roma under the guidance of Frank L. Teller, New York impressario, for a series of concerts. International harmony was not improved when Umberto Carodossi, Italian vice consul in this city, met the Roma to object to the use of "black shirt band" and fererences to the Mussolini government in its publicity. Mr. Teller retorted that Mr.

Carodossi gave him "a pain in the neck," and there matters stood. The Baptist delegates returned on the North German Lloyd liner Suttgart, enthusiastic about. their reception in Germany right of free speech accorded them there. The stowaway arrived on the Arnold Bernstein liner Ilsenstein. He was Gregory Cotov of Czechoslovakia, who said ehid at Antwerp in hope seeing the international yacht races.

posed of professional crooks. That's almost a cinch. And it is probable that, despite all the fairy tales about the relations of dope to crime, not a hophead was among them. No leader smart enough to plan a robbery of half a million dollars over a period of at least two months would trust himself to the vagaries of hopheads. That leader must be a man of brains, commanding position in the underworld and possessed of a large bankroll.

The job spelled brains. Only a man of approved standing as a leader and commander could have assembled such a competent mob of cool, deadly and resourceful crooks. A bankroll was needed to stake the fingerman along, assemble and keep the mob for several weeks, obtain the boats and motorcars, arrange for that perfect but too extended getaway, and for the final division of the loot. A Leading Light As the indications are that the mob split into at least two parts represented by the passengers on the two boats, and may have dropped other members in Brooklyn, the leader must be a man whom professional criminals everywhere recognize as a square dealer in his crooked world. He must also be enough of a criminal light to enforce his will on the whole mob, for it is likely that the money was roughly divided between the two boats.

This robbery was unique, and may have set an American record, because the enormous loot of $427,000 is untraceable cash. That vastly increased the temptation and the opportunity for the leader to doublecross his men, or for a small faction in the mob to doublecross the leader and the other mobsters. Ordinarily, mobs pulling large jobs have to stick together while the loot is disposed of through fences, who, by the way, are often found by the police and lead to the criminals. In this astounding robbery fences have no hand. Honor among thieves is a joke, and the only tie binding the mob is the personality and reputation of the leader.

A New York Man Were the leader and "the mob Greater New York criminals? A good hunch is that the leader is a New York man because only one or two machine guns figured. A Western leader and Western mob could have been counted upon to have used half a dozen machine guns on such a stupendous job, which involved the chance that they might be needed in the robbery, in the motorcar getaway to the waterfront, or while pursued by police boats on the water. Instead, witnesses have not even agreed that the mob had two machine guns. The one accidentally left behind. and which may prove to be what Scotland Yard calls the "essential Lester W.

EAGLE BUILDING Desirable office space at lowest rentals in Borough Hall section Renting Agent ROOM 506 Main 4-6200-Ext. 64 clue," is the only one definitely 1o- cated in the hands of the mob. I pointed out in The Eagle three years ago that machine guns were as accessible to New York crooks as to those in other cities, and that the only reason not used in New York as elsewhere must be because the political powers that were, at that time, had let the underworld know that they would not stand for their position being jeopardized by New York getting a machine gun reputation such as Chicago had. Up to yesterday not more than three or four machine gun crimes were actually on record in Greater New York, although newspapers had reported at least 50. And that's a Hence, use more than faction two machine guns yesterday leads to the inference that the leader is a New Yorker who does not think in terms of machine guns, and does not wish to get in bad with the powers that were--and may be again.

Too Many People The chances are that a leader who could plan so far ahead and so perfectly would build up a mob of men from out of town and of New Yorkers not familiar to the police. I have a hunch that if fingerprints are found on the truck, the motorcars or elsewhere they should be rushed to the fingerprint division Bureau of Investigation at Washington, for it is a good guess that they are more probably there than at police headquarters in New York. It was a perfect crime in planning, operation and getaway, but it involved too many persons. Wonder who will be the first of the gang to brag to his moll and wreck the whole great scheme when he mistreats her and she squeals out of revenge? One very good guess is that something of the sort will happen in two months, if the case is not broken otherwise. The robbery of an armored truck yesterday in Brooklyn was not the first robbery of the kind, although it may be the first robbery suffered by the United States Trucking Corporation.

Richard Reese Whittemore's mob held up an armored truck in Buffalo, N. in 1925 or 1926, killed a guard and made a large haul. Wittemore was arrested but acquitted. He was then turned over to the Maryland authorities for killing a guard in his escape from the Maryland penitentiary in Baltimore, and was expeditiously hanged in two months and 23 days after he crossed the Maryland line.
