BIBLE READERS' LE.4GUE ORGANIZED
Following numerous complaints about the actions of a band of gyp- .sios encamped on the Green Pond road, near Farmersville, Sherifl Charles J. Unangst, last Friday pro¬ vided a police escort for the party of 80 traveling in 12 high priced automobiles and took them out of the state.
The gypsies had been telling for¬ tunes, doing all kinds of tricks which took cash away f»'om gullible victims and the authorities had been deluged with complaints so Sherifl Unangst decided it was time for them to leave.
Deputizing Kermit Frey, of town. SherlfT Unangst also enlisted the aid of Sergeant McClaren, of the State motor patrol, who provided the motorized police escort. McClaren and Patrolmen Pezzen, Czarick and Pritz escorted the party to Bethle¬ hem, AUentowu and Hamburg. At the latter place a patrolman frnin Reading took over the escort job anrl took the (?yp.<;ies to Harrisburg where other State patrolmen escorted them to Chambersburg and out of th" State to Ohio.
The last complaint against the band was made on Fridav when a resident of Hop< s Lock claimed ho was swindled by one of them In a fortune tellin!? scheme. Ho lost slightly more than a dollar in the transaction.

Government agents here indicted t'lVenty meml:)ers of an alleged com¬ mercial fraud ring, said to havs swindled merchants throughout the State out of many thousands of dol¬ lars.
Federal indictments were return¬ ed against Charles Weiss and Ma.x- well Davis, who conducted the Weisi department store at 532 Hamilton street.

The local concern was thrown into bankruptcy a year ago. Relnhard was appointed trustee and retained Attorney Julius Rapport, of Allen¬ town, as his counsel. The latter called in the ofTicers of the National Association of Credit Men and U. S. postal authorities, who have spent the past twelve months unraveling the machinations of the group.
Their operations, according to At¬ torney Rapoport. netted more than a half-million dollars. When the Weiss store went into bankruptcy its a.ssets were $670 and liabilities $70,000.
The method was to open mer¬ cantile establishments, apparently legitimate, and establish credit rat¬ ing on which large amounts of mer¬ chandise were obtained. This. Rapo¬ port said, "went in the front door and out the back and wa.s deliver¬ ed to 'fences' and receivers of stolen goods for prices far below what it was suppcsed to cost thoni."

Harrisburg, June 13—No shrub is more truly typical of native North American flora, reminds Secretary of Highways Samuel S. Lewis, than the sturdy mountain laurel which may be seen from thousands of miles of highway. Each year In mid-June the pink or white blooms apijear, ma.s.sed in showy clunters which attract thousands of motor¬ ists from many states.
For more than four weeks Penn¬ sylvania mountains and roadsides will be tinted by lu.surious blooms.
In   response    to   many   inquiries
from out-of-state motorists the Highway Fonsters have reported lo¬ cations of especially fine growth. In addition to the old State Highway System, the 2000-odd miles of new .surface placed on the rural road system since last August enable the tourists to penetrate many section.s hitherto difReult of approach, thc foresters point out.
