A world epc ‘4,4:jrd that has.

biee in the balance as a project
Meting the leritish motor indus-
try .e:1,500,000 goes to the 141111*
chin[; pad.
The record is 394.2 miles per
hour set by Britain's John Cobb.
He did so on the TJtall salt flate
at Benneville from a flying start
in a spccial:y designed Renton
Mobil. The project is the new
Bluebird Proteus jet-engined car
built with tile co-operation of 72
British companies and being
shipped from there on ,Tan, 0.
It is going to Australia, first
of all to Melbourne for exhibi-
tion at tee international trade
fair, then in April to a place
some 500 miles northwest of
Adelaide, South Australia,
On a sit known as Lake Eyre,
uninhabited and classified as a
desert, Britain's Donald Camp-
bell will attempt to drive Blue-
bird at speeds in excess of 400
m.p.h. in two opposite directions.
The two-way drive is an essen-
tial part of the record attack.
For a record to be officially
recognized, a return run has to
be made within a specified time.
Times of the two runs are added,
divided by two, and a mean av-
erage struck to give the officially
credited miles per hour speed
Already one motorist has trav-
elled in excess of 400 m.p.h. In
1900, Cal if ornia's Michael
Thompson became the fastest
man on wheels with a 406.6
mexh. hurtle over the Western
Salt flats. But, as his return run
when averaged was at a speed
less than Cobb's existing mark,
a' world record could not be
claimed.
It was on Sept. 16 in the same
year, at the same venue, that
Donald Campbell crashed when
he attacked Cobb's record. The
Bristol •Siddeley engine, using
less than 80 percent of full pow-
er, accelerated from a standstill
to 365 m,p.la. in 24 seconds, but
the right wheels ran into a patch
of wet salt.
The tires lost adhesion, the car
became airborne for 300 yards
and half a mile from the point
where it left the course it .ceash-
ed. When the rescuers reached
it Donald. Campbell.Was-severely
injured, but the :engine still run-
ning.

Made Them Realize
GI yerarrsent's Bite
A, K. Summers, 54, owner of 4
-Parkersburg, W,Iree photo finish-
ing company, decided one day to
do something about the public's
highly inconsistent reaction to
various taxes,
Summers had seen his fellow
citizens object loudly and angrily
to modest boosts in, local and state
taxes, and to a special levy need-
ed to provide better schools.
Yet few of these same citizens
even murmured about the big
bite Uncle Sam was taking from
their paychecks every week
or about how their tax money
was being spent.
To Summers, the reason seem-
ed obvious, Withheld taxes never
got into a worker's hands, so
there was no payback pain, Few,
in fact, even considered withheld
taxes as part of their pay, Only
"take-home" counted,
To make his 65 employees
aware of their federal tax bills,
Summers instituted a new system
last January. Instead of weekly,
he began deducting federal in-
come and OAS taxes from one
paycheck a month.
The message got through, loud
and clear, Some examples:
One $70-a-week employee with-
out dependents drew full checks
the first three weeks in JanuarY,
but none at all the, :fourth week,
In fact, she ended the month
owing Uncle Sans another $4.75.
A $2-an-hour employee took
home precisely 83 cents the
fourth week — and a $125-a-
week worker's fourth check was
only $22,68.
Summers' new system got into
the papers, of course — and In-
ternal Revenue Service officials
promptly questioned its legality.
Summers invited a test case, but
after eight months none had been
filed. By then the plan — still in
effect, by the way — had achiev-
ed results.
"Most of our employees now
realize that a lot of this wild fed-
eral spending is• coming out of
their pockets," said Summers,
Then, somewhat more bluntly,
he added: "I have talked to many
businessmen on this subject. They
think it is a great idea but they
don't do anything about it. I
think the average "businessman
would rather sit back and let
George do it, or maybe the brutal
truth is, no guts. One George
speaking out in the wilderness
will not be heard very far, but
three or four million Georges
speaking at once would be heard
a long way."
Indeed they would — and even,
more clearly would be heard the
angry, voices of all these Georges'
employees, once they became
acutely aware of federal taxes
now extracted so painlessly. —
News-Dispatch (Michigan City,
Ind.)
was the Flying Squad's new Sys-
tem of shadowing cal' loads of
race mobsters. When they arrived
at a race meeting it was to find
plenty of plain-clothes men ready
to move in at the first sign of
violence.
One of the last big gangs was
the Hoxton mob. Its leaders de-
cided they had the field to them-
selves, and set out to prove it at
Lewes in June, 1936.
The bookies were to be their
victims, But the Flying Squad
had been watching the gang 'very
closely, and its plans were known
to them.
Brighton police were alerted.
Detective-Sergeant Collier, an
expert in local race-gang warfare,
took a special squad to Lewes to
co-operate with the Flying Squad.
The Huxton mobsters were
seen edging up to the bookies'
stands.
Suddenly they pounced,, drag-
ging weapons from under their
jackets.
One bookie was beaten over
the head, but he managed to run
away, blood streaming down his
feeAenother was almost killed by a
hatchet blow. "
Then a police whistle shrilled,
and the weapons were thrown on
the grass. But too late.
Sixteen of that mob appeared
later -,at ewes-Assizes. The judge

Battles Of The
Racetrack Gangs
A lean man with bard eyes
and some slips of paper in a
grubby hand approached a
bookie during the Epsom spring
meeting,
When the bookie saw him he
frowned. He recognized a mem-
ber of one of the London race
gangs that had sprung up a few
months earlier.
"I'm not taking your money,"
he said. "I don't want trouble "
The lean man grinned. "I'm not
handing out money. I'm collect-
ing. The boys sent me — see?"
He help up the slips of paper.
"These are tickets. The boys
want you to buy some. Read for
Yourself, and don't say you can't."
A slip was thrust into the
bookie's hand.
Poorly printed were the words:
"This is a donation in aid of the
distressed wife of our friend . , , .
who has had the misfortune to
lose his liberty."
Over the dots had been pencil-
led a name,
"Go to hell," said the bookie.
The bookie didn't reach home
that night. He was found in a
ditch, not far from Epsom race-
course, beaten and disfigured
with a razor.
The next day the tickets sold
freely among the bookmaker fra-
ternity.
It was 1921 and the new racket
was flourishing.
This. was the kind of challenge
the fledgling Flying Squad had to
meet'inethe early , years 'after it

local police sdnith, news:
"There are twenty of here,
and we're all going back,"
It was a cheap boast, easily
broken. Those toughs from Birm-
ingham ran up against another
mob, known as the Italian Gang,
whose members mostly had dark
curly hair, swarthy faces, and a
passion for thin-bladed knives. •
That day the bottles and
knuckle-dusters lost out to the
stiletto knives,
Some of the Birmingham mob
were still in hospital when,..,,a
couple of men called at an Italian
café in the Clerkenwell area of
London.
Six men jumped up from a
table. Shots were fired and then
the Flying Squad arrived,
Five prisoners were charged
with this off-the-course affray,
Two were sentenced to three
years' penal servitude,
The first real dent had been
made in the armour of the race
gangs. But race gang rivalry had
not been deterred from using vio-
lence and letting blood.
Then the Birmingham mod and
their close allies, the Leeds mob,
MEDICAL
decided to finish the Italians and
their allies from London's' East
End during an Epsom meeting.

:noon when the coach ,Was backed

truth, They had' jumped • their
pals from Leeds!
By that time too' much blood
had been spilled for a fractured
friendship to be mended.
The Birmingham mob piled
back into their coach and took
off, The Flying Squad found it
outside a pub in Kingston.
The Squad men then covered
each entrance and advanced,
They arrested the entire gapg
of twenty-eight men, dumped
them in seven vans, and drove
them back to Epsom. Twenty-
three were sentenced' to jail,
writes Leonard Gribb in "Tit-
Bits,"
The Flying Squad was getting
into its stride in dealing with the
race gangs.
Of course the Italian mob had
some laughs at the outcome, but
the laughter lacked heart for they
could see a grim warning to
themselves..
In the following seasons the
gangs tended to become less bois-
terous on the course and more,
violent in the back-streets of
their home cities.
Some of the gangs recruited
members for this kind' of gang
warfare, until they could roam a
neighbourhood with forty or: fifty
armed thugs,
Tirelessly the Flying Squad
broke up the various gangs in
London, but it was slow, slogging
work, for no arrested member of
a race gang dared to squeal,
Then the Flying Squad receive
ed an invaluable ally — radio,
They stopped a fight with the
Italians in a Soho club that
changed gang tactics. A tele-
phone call from a frightened
woman resulted in a radio
arid Flying Squad cars converged
on 'Greek Street,
Three tough mobs had their
fighting epirit breken by Flying
Squad truncheons.
The race gangs became more
docile in outward appearance,
and the "roaring twenties'"

they began. The gangs were Still
