Calling All Cars: York Gang Holdup

Calling all cars, the copyrighted program created by the Rio Grande the Oil Company. I was pleased for an all car, attention all cars, about gas and sex regarding hold up. On Temple Island just before noon, there was two bandits, number one, dark complexion.

Mexican or Filipino, about 20 years of a wearing a dark suit and gray cap. Number two is also dark, wearing a gray suit and gray cap. You may be heading north toward Los Angeles. Keep your eyes open for it.

That's all. Those who put it. Mrs. Hazelburg, living in Hollywood, is awakened at 2 AM by the ringing of her telephone. Hello.

Virginia. I'm turning on the gas. Virginia, hello. Operator, give me the police department. Please call me car 4-2, car 42. A woman committing suicide with gas. Seven-barre of 66th-north-Eavenburg in Hollywood.

At last, let's go. Less than a minute after the emergency call was received by the police department, radio policemen, Christ down the door, gave Virginia first aid treatment and saved her life. A few seconds longer, it would have been too late.

And because the police meet hundreds of emergencies like it the day, when seconds save mean the difference between life and death, they specify Rio Grande cracked gasoline to power more police and emergency cars in any other brand. This emergency gasoline galvanizes the direction that the touch of the stock. It accelerates so much faster than ordinary gasoline.

Police and emergency car drivers in Los Angeles, Oakland, Berkeley, and many many other cities, as well as deputy sheriffs in medical County, Arizona, and many other counties where great distances must be covered at top speed, all swear by real-branding cracked gasoline as the fastest, most powerful, most efficient gasoline they have ever used.

And every day, scores of motorists who fire Rio Grande crack gasoline for the first time get the thrill of police car performance in their own cars. Now it is our pleasure to introduce Chief of Detective H.S. S. Siga, of the Los Angeles Police Department, Chief Siga.

Good evening, friends. The law enforcement problems of the law and analyst police departments are complicated by large colonies of foreign language speaking people in our city. These people do not always understand the work of our police officers.

When our department attempts to solve a crime occurring in one of these foreign colonies, we meet many difficulties as you will hear tonight. It is hard to make our mission understood, and it is even harder for our police officers to understand the meager explanations in a foreign tongue.

Despite being handicapped, there are might a few unsolved crimes of any magnitude. Our detectives must merely work harder and longer tracking down clues. Eventually, we always get the culprit. Tonight's case is a typical of the disadvantages under which our police work.

The description of the bandits was so vague it seemed almost impossible that we could even locate them. The story of the missing Mexican Sikhs that you are now about to hear is typical of the almost superhuman diligence of your police officers and working out a successful conclusion to a case that had no clues. It is late morning of February 5th 1930. Mrs.

Taki Nago, as is her custom, visits her branch bank on Terminal Island in Los Bangladesh harbor. Good morning Mr. Nago. Good morning, please. What will it be this morning? I think I take out money today. Early money in back. Oh, today's a big banking day. Yes. Yes. Today's money to German. Many come every

month. He pay off. He come at my ex-hosts number one last for us. And you cash the check. Is that it? Yes. I think any Irish for them. Well, I can see what you get out of making a bank for those boys.

Maybe so. You like it. Very good. Maybe so eight months old. Your life? Well I don't know Mr. Dargill. You see I'm not used to oriental dishes. Well here's your money. $1,000 in 10-5 and $20 bill.

Oh yeah. There's $100 worth of wine. You're coming to you. Is they all right? Yes I can. It's right. Just $1,000. Very good. Now be careful of that money. I'm careful. I won't fight in hunt.

Alright. Goodbye. Goodbye. And you're not forget. I made settle number one Japanese dinner for you. Alright, Mr. Nago. I'll drop in and see you someday. As Mrs. Nordold eats the bank and walks down the street toward her top two-year restaurant, a sedan which has been parked across the street makes a U-turn, passes a little Japanese woman and comes to a stop but you feed ahead of her.

A young man gets out and stands with one foot on the running board talking to his companion that the wheel as Mrs. Nargu approaches them. Then, just as she is passing, give to me that money.

Keep your mouth shut you. You can't get the board. Oh, you're coming. Oh, you're coming. Oh, you're coming. Come on. Come on. Come on. Now. 17th century registered letter, 2010 to know. Oh, look there, then.

Seven months. Seven months. I'm not going to. No, no, no. No, no, no. What's this? Some of the rodeo money? Yes, all money in the world. You got it, you can tell me. You'll stop him.

You'll work for government. You're not a fool. No, no, no, no, no. I can't stop him. I only run the cold store. No, no, no, no, no. You'll work for a little son. You can stop him free.

Great son. Now look, Mrs. Nago, pull yourself together. I can't do anything about it. But you run over to the fire engine house across the street. No, he is. Right over there to the fire engine house.

And you tell them and they'll call the police. They do. You're now hurrying. Thank you, Mr. King. Thank you, all the long time. Oh, my, what? You never should have left an opening like that.

One, two, three. I'll make that a king. There's two more. I'll wipe you off the board. Yeah, I guess you got me that time. Hey, look at that gentleman sticking across the street. Oh, that took an hour to go.

Here's my farmer. You're hell, no, he'll sleep. I found really great trouble. What, man? Oh, man, here's glad money for my home. Here, all the way, fuck the amount of property. Well, that's your sale, you've been wrong?

Yes, I am up. All money, you know what? I got no more money. Please, you're stopping. You might want to come back. How much money did he take? Oh, maybe so I think $7. Oh, $1.

What did he look like? Oh, he's back. I think he made it to Mexico. How was he dressed? Please? What did he wear? He wear a green card suit, car too, I think. What kind of a car was it?

Please? What kind of a car? Oh, I don't know, Bill. Yes. Maybe so, right, green. Anybody with him? Yes, he has friends. When that car, Bill is there? What the different look like. In Mexico too.

Maybe. You have a dark suit. Carp to I do. And which way did he go? Oh, down that way. Mm, toward the draw braid. No, I think you'll find him. You're stopping him maybe. So, take back my money.

You might want to do the best I can. Give me the draw braid. Hello. Harry. Christ at the engine house. Say, Harry, a couple of Mexicans just pulled a strong arm job down here and got away with a grand.

Lift that bridge of yours, will you? Yeah. Yeah, I want to hold up all the traffic from the island, till the Dixon get over there from San Pedro. Yeah, I'm gonna ring them right away.

Captain AL, gentry detective Evans and Duns, the answer Captain Christ has called. Duns he is detailed to keep a lookout in San Pedro for the car and off to advance ring the Japanese woman's description.

And Captain Gentry and Evans cost a terminal island on the ferry. Of the open draw bridge, a long line of irate motorists squeaks in with honking horns. As they are joined by officers, George Finn, on the BH hideaway from the Wilmington State.

Hello Captain, we've been waiting for you. Oh, and got here as soon as we could. Hey, come on, let's get on. All right, you'll be moving in a minute. Ah, come on, come on. There, again, we got a reference back down here.

Well, a little delay won't hurt, am I? Here's what I want you men to do. That's it? We'll drop the bridge. Then ship this line of cars and trucks up. Get the license number, description of every car and the name and address of every object.

That's it. And if you find a light dream sedan with two Mexicans or Filipinos in it, One dressed in a gray suit, the other in blue, both wearing caps. Arrest them and bring them in.

Right. I doubt if you'll find them in this lineup though. The chances are they've abandoned the car. Evans and I are going to take a look around the island, see if we can locate it.

Long appears for the great miners, lime who are adopted as journeys from the audience of the south seas, and up and down the dock, first scrubby tuna slippers sway at their moorings. Young tree and oven search for the robbers.

Their hunt leads them past warehouses the metal cargos from far places of the earth. Through streets where the fishermen are drawing the nets, past canary, and past lumber fritters. Finally, as they turn into seaside avenues.

There, Captain, this might be it, but you see that? The dand down there, part right in the middle of the street. Both front doors are swinging open. Yes, sir. Say we'll have a look at that.

No, no, that couldn't be it. The description is like green, this car's blue. Oh, that don't mean nothing. That poor chap, woman, was probably so scared. She couldn't tell the difference between light green and dark blue.

Come on, let's have a look. Okay. Looks like somebody left it in a hurry. It had been run that fast. That radiator's hot. Who's it registered to? Let's see. Now you might know it's a rented car.

California art of park in San Pedro. I'm going to ask that woman over on the porch there. She saw anybody in the car. Okay. Pardon me, ma'am. You know who owns this car? No, it's Bobby.

Did you see anybody leave it there? He. Those numbers. Two men, eh? What do they look like? Were they Mexicans? Maybe. How would they dress? One, he wear gray suits, other he wear blue. Well, did they wear caps?

He. You know him? No, do you? No, Tommy. Do they live around here? No, Tommy. Well, ever see him around before? No, no, no, no, no, Tommy. Well, that's good enough. Right. Well, Evans, good as Krypton Talies.

I guess this is the bug you were looking for. A lot of good little dole. The age of mugs didn't give their right names when they rented it out there. Well, we'll follow it up anyway.

I'm going to form the California Auto Park and see who rented this car. In the meantime, you'd better dust and photograph what fingerprints you can find. Right. The Auto Park Manager in form of Captain Gentry that the car was rented by one J. Colano of 8328 Street San Pedro.

On the way back from Terminal Island, the detective checked this address and discovered that it's a school building. They returned discouraged to the San Pedro police station to determine their line of action. Well, we're pretty much interrupt the well-known tree.

Pony address, pony name without a doubt. And they didn't catch a shadow of a suspect while they were sifting at the drawbridge. Those birds must have abandoned the car and come over to town on the foot ferry.

They're probably miles away by now. If I get one thing, Gendre, what's that? No, it brings that photograph this afternoon. Yeah, the guys have ever been up before, well, they may help us. Well, anyway, it's not as bad as it could be.

Ooh, hello, boys. Hello, Sebastian. How's the merchant's patrol? Okay. I dropped over from the island to get the latest hope on the crime. Well, there is much guilt. We found the band in college and prints on it.

Well, that's something. I've been up at the bridge with the boys chicken car. You didn't have to do that. You're paid to guard warehouses. Not to do all work for us. Well, I wanted to get in on the excitement.

Yeah, from all I hear, there wasn't that. There wasn't that. That's not very much. But I thought I'd drop over and give you some dough, but I got on a hunch. Still playing the hunches to that thing?

Yeah. Sometimes they're a good idea. Well, I don't know where this is worth a nickel for you. But a few days ago, I saw a couple of Mexican sheaks over on the island that were dressed like the one who described him as holder.

Yeah, what were they doing? Oh, they were innocent enough. And a couple of girls with him. But they were taking pictures. But he is what a hunch comes in. Somehow they didn't look on the up and up to me. So I took the license number of the coupe they were driving I got it here someplace one sure here it is

Yeah Five Edward one four nine five Wait a minute Down that number again. Well, I was checking at the bridge. I'm sure I did do Wait till I look at this other list Yes, here it is Five Edward, one, four, nine, five.

Chrysler, crew, with two Mexican names in it. Yeah? Here's their name. The lawless gun fellows driving, accomplished by more than what two men. Both employed by the Gold Star fish cannery. They live up on eight-speed, they're the screw.

Yeah, we know all about that, cool. That's where the guy rented the car, ladies. Hey, you'd better hop up there to the girls' rooms and see if you can find them, Evans. That's where I stack them at, and get the registration on this license number.

The Department of Motor Vehicles quickly replies to Captain Gentry's query with the information of license 5E1495 is registered to the Lori's gun's rally at an address on 3rd Street in San Francisco. In the meantime Detective Evans is calling us the girls lodging.

Yes? He was the landlady here. I am. I'm trying to locate the lawyers' guns dollars and mornin' martinars. They live here, don't they? Oh, I did. What do you mean? They checked out a half hour ago.

I did? That's what I said. know where they went no and if they know information booth for their boyfriend wait a minute don't shut that door in my face I'm not a boyfriend of theirs I'm a police officer a police officer oh I always knew them to would get into some kind of trouble they're not in trouble I want to question them well they're

opposed to that are you sure that sure I'm sure here's the money that is Yeah, just a minute. Let me see that doll. Hmm. New $1 bill. Five of them. I'll give you a $5 bill for them. What for? Because of Ronham. Well, all right again. If you find good money.

Well, if it isn't, you can always find me at the police station. Look here. You said something about the boyfriends of these two girls. Did they have many? Well, it wasn't the number, but the kind there was.

What do you mean? Oh, a couple of sheets used to hang around here most of the time. What'd they look like? They was Mexican. One was sort of dark and the other was lighter, with curly hair.

You don't have a picture of them, do you? Why should I have a picture of them? Well, I just wondered. Did the girls have any pictures of them? They was always taken pictures. Dr. Lawrence Girl had a roll of film in her hand today when she paid me the rent.

Oh, she did. Yes, she did. Look here, I don't see where this is getting anybody, and I got a lot of work to do. Quite alright. You tell me all I want to know. Why haven't told you a thing?

That's what you think. Thanks very much. Well, I declare... The Land Lady's Dollar Bill, fair of the same serial numbers as the money issued to Mrs. Nargill. Every drug store in Kodak store in San Pedro asserts for the role of film.

Every traffic policeman and motorcycle patrolman is furnished with a number of the price of coupe on their daily hop seat of wanted cars. San Francisco police are asked to watch for the two girls in the coupé and police and venturas, Santa Barbara, and the weeobits pull every town between San Francisco and Los Angeles are requested to be on the lookout.

The following morning, Lieutenant Barlow, Police Department fingerprint expert sent his report to Captain Gentry, who is opening at just as Evans bursts into his office. Well, here they are. What? What an interesting picture. pictures for it to get them pick them up at the Green Cross drug car they were in the name of that Gonzalo girl or that sweat and say look here follow reports of the

prints on that car the same as those of Paul de Joula alias jay kalana well I'll be uses old aliases when he rented the car yep he's on parole now at the serving time for a robbery job in 1928 huh after his old tricks again eh looks like it This is good. His address ended on his police record is 832-83 at school again.

Let's have a look at those pictures. Yeah, there they are. Two women and two guys. Well, so far so good. They put the description. Here's the wavy hair it wouldn't wear in the grey suit and the darker one of the blue suits.

Yeah, and look at this. The way they heard one pause his full phase with one of the dames in this picture, and then in this one he pauses profile. That's as good as shooting for the mug book. If we can find a mug on him, it'll be a stench to identify him.

Well, one of these guys is Colano. The question is, which one? Better get bar on a 10-year's mug. I'll do that right away. You take these snaps over to the island and see if you can get an identification from the Japanese woman. Oh yeah, and you'd better stop in on that land lady in the parking station manager.

So you say you recognize him too. Hi. Mrs. Nagole, the distraught victim of the robbery, is doubtful in her identification of the man in the blue suit. But it's certain that the one in the gray suit is the same as the criminal who sees her money.

The land lady identifies the curly haired man as the lorry's boy friend and the darker one is Moana Sweetie. The manager of the auto renting park identifies the darker suspected colonial, the man who under the car. But the police are stopped when they try to identify the curly-haired man in the gray suit. Then the next day a traffic officer, L.H. Bowden, stands his watch at six and spring

in Los Angeles. That's spring. Okay, jump on. What's that? I wanted carnage and stuff. Well, you can't get to that traffic on fifth. Here we are. Pull over to the curb. Oh, me? Yes, you.

The big idea of not stopping when I blew my whistle. Well, you're whistling at me? Yes, I was. The Lord is never stopped when men flee the latter. She better stop when a man wears a badge.

I gotta put you girls under arrest. Oh, well, what's called? Why we stop with that light back there? Yeah, I know. It ain't that. This car is wanted. Wont it by who? Wont it by the police?

But if you like car, it's not stolen. It's mine. Hey, we ain't done nothing? I can't help that girl. I gotta take in. I'm out of labor testing there in a sense. The two girls are booked at Central Station and then transferred to town Pedro, where they are questions. Oh come on boys what's the big idea of painting the Lord isn't

me we ain't done nothing nobody said you have Mona we just want to ask you some questions that's all yeah and show you some pictures. What kind of big? Oh some friends of yours. Some friends of mine. So together see this guy before. No never signed before in my life. Sure that. Oh come he's posing with you in this shot. Oh I

Say what's the idea of copying our picture? Oh, you can have them back. After we're through with them, sure you can. But right now we're interested in this guy in the picture with you. Could he see he looking boy, friend, ain't he, Mona?

Yeah, he's okay. But he ain't mine. No? Who is it? Dolores. We just closed that way for fun. Yeah? Who took the picture? Dolores. Sure it wasn't this guy. Why, yeah? Who's that? Oh, come on, Mona.

You wouldn't fool it now, would you? I don't know who he is. I never saw him before. Well, how about you, Dolores? We found the money order for $25 in your first. Made out to a julier gun's dollars in Puerto Rico, and signed by Ignacio Gonzales.

Who is this Ignacio Gonzales, Dolores? Your brother? I hadn't got any brothers. He's a good friend of mine. How come you got the money order? He asked me to send him. How did they pay for it?

A new dollar bill? What do you mean? Maybe the dollar bill was taken from that poor Japanese woman a couple of days ago on the island, eh? Say, what are you trying to pull off?

I don't know nothing about no new dollar bill to hold up. Who is Ignacio Gonzales de L'Oré? Just a friend of mine. Is this a picture of him? Monterdex. How did you... Never mind how he got him.

Who is this man on a grey suit? Is this Ignacio Gonzales? No, I can't. Do I never saw him before? Roger Moster. I hear the picture of your friend Mona and him and Mona tells us you took the picture.

Now who is this, Ignacio de L'Oré? What's his name? He'd call him Buddy. That's the only name we know. He's a friend. He's been visiting down here from San Francisco. But today he's done nothing. You can't see anything on him.

Convinced that the man in grey is the same Ignacio Gonzales, whose name appears on the money order in Dolores Purse, Captain Gentry has Los Angeles and San Francisco checks their mother's books for the man.

A couple of days later the records in San Francisco arrive and the police pictures check with the snapshot. After four days the girls release for insufficient evidence and declare they are leaving for San Francisco at once.

The entry asks the San Francisco police to keep a lookout for the girls' coupé and also to watch the gun's olive girls address in the northern city. A week later, as detectives George P. Wade for him, Ph. Canelia are cruising the waterfront in a radio car looking for stolen automobile.

They pick up Delorees and Mona parked in their Chrysler Coupe. They arrest the girls on suspicion of robbery, send them to the station and remain on watch near the Chrysler. Shortly a big sedan comes up to find the Coupe.

Hey Delore, what are you doing? You're sleeping? Just a minute boys, we want to talk to you. Hey, stop with police officers! Treadying their way at breakneck speed to the narrow streets around the waterfront, the police car follows the fleeing sedan.

The police car is the case of the police car, the license is the rear fender of the sedan, before it can be stopped. Well, this baby one's run away anymore. Dead? Look at him, four bullets in the head.

Yeah, but that was true. Where is the other one? You must have jumped out as they hit the curb. Come on, he can't be far away. In the wrecked car, the effect of his wafer and can nearly find the body of Calam.

He apparently shot at the wheel as he thought to escape, but ignited a gazalas and escaped in the darkness, and although pleased, scoured to the vicinity, he was not found. But so extensively did we advertise for him, and so persistent was our search that nearly a year later, when he was admitted to a hospital and fortune for treatment of a minor injury,

He was promptly recognized and arrested. Gonzalez was a confirmed criminal who had been arrested 11 times in five years. This time he was convicted on a charge of first degree robbery and it is doubtful that the parole board will again release such a habitual offender from his present home in San Quentin Sanitentiary.
