Payment of the checks were stopped as soon as the burglary was dis- covered. Harry Raymond Chambers of Win- netka, who until up to three weeks ago was employed by Builders Service, was arrested by the police Thursday morning, and later confessed to divulg- ing the combination of the safe to a man named John J. Joint, alias War- ner, of Chicago, whom he said he met Wednesday morning at an employment agency on South Wabash avenue, Chicago, where the two men had gone to make application for employment. Tn his confession, Chambers was said to have told the police that Joint asked him where he had been em- ployed, in what capacity and wanted to know if they kept any money on hand. Chambers had been a shipping clerk at the Builders Service and possessed the safe combination. This he admits he gave to Joint, who later came to Winnetka with him, he savs, and Wed- nesday night, between 10:30 and 11:30, Toint, he claims, committed the bur- glary. Chambers claims he was not with Joint and at a later meeting refused to take any of the money. Chambers is being held on a charge of accessory before and after the fact, of burglary. Joint's arrest is expected momentarily. Stolen Cars Convenient But Our Police Object As a result of the watchful eye of the Winnetka police, the practice of Clarence I. Herr, of Great Lakes, of stepping out and picking up a car when down this way and driving to his section of the north shore, there to abandon it, and of confiscating a car nearer home when he desired to drive south, is at an end, at least for a while. Sergeant Ed Cummings and Officer Ralph Rayburn Thursday night of last week, saw Herr in a car at Indian Hill, which a short time before had been re- ported as stolen from Waukegan On Herr's person they found the keys to the Frank J. Kristoff car, 1103 Cherry street, taken from Teatro del Lago November 25 and driven to North Chicago where it was aban- doned. Herr was bound over to the grand jurv by Police Magistrate Byron A. Nelson last Saturday and a mittimus issued pending his prosecution by the Waukegan police, to whom he was turned over. TO SPEND HOLIDAYS IN EAST The E. C. Kohlsaats, their daughters, Cynthia and Suzanne, and their son, Edward, will forego the holiday festivi- ties here in order to enjoy the winter sports and parties at the Lake Placid club. Mr. and Mrs. Kohlsaat will meet Cynthia, Suzanne and Edward in the Fast as they are at Vassar and Prince- ton respectively.
