S. savings bonds held by the depositors in his little bank alone would average almost $100,000 a year for the next 10 years. To me that is an amazing revelation, for it is the answer to the confusion in the minds of many persons throughout the country as to why the treasury department is continuing its drive to sell U. S. savings bonds although the fighting is over. Also, the treasury's working balance and anticipated tax revenue are enough to meet government expenditures for some time to come, and they have been sufficient since the close of the Victory Loan in December. 1945.

CHICAGO. With the cooperation of eight confessed teen-ag- e burglars, police recovered approximately of the loot stolen from more than 75 south side homes in the last six months. They also arrested two others in possession of loot which they are said to have bought from the boys at a small fraction of its value. Police estimated that money, jewelry, typewriters and whisky exceeding $50,000 in value were taken in the burglaries. Seven of the youths said their only purpose in the forays was the thrill. They expressed astonishment at the value of the loot and said they had spent the cash on frivolities. Married and a Father. The eighth, Fred Smith, 19, said he needed money to pay the $40 rent on the apartment occupied by himself, his wife and their one child. He said his wife was expecting a second child and that he had ob tained a job. Smith bought a $1,000 watch from Jack SU ns, 15, one of the gang, for $8 and later sold it for $35. He also admitted taking part in one of the burglaries. Stevens was seized after he bad tried to sell several bottles of stolen whisky to a dealer. The suspicious dealer called police.

The boys boasted of their exploit as detectives scoured places on the south side where the youths said they had disposed of the loot The gang concentrated on apartments and operated in groups of two or three between 7 and 10 p. m., they said. If the doorbell was answered, they would pose as students soliciting subscriptions. If not they would break in. Two of the youths each carried about $70 in cash when arrested. They said they won it from the others shooting dice. One, a student at De La Salle college, said he spent a lot "taking taxis to and from school." Another bought ties.
