ELKINS BACKED AS
LEE HIGH COACH
Famed Athlete From
University Seen as
Possibility
A 28-year-old Goose Creek bank
teller who got $1,323.90 short in
his accounts, ran away with $5,266
more but had a change of heart and
turned it in, was in the Houston
city jail today.
S. W. Nash, teller of the First
National bank, is charged Before
United States Commissioner Ca-
minute rot,^ers at Houston with embezz-
ling $6,380 August 10.
Willard Moore, Houston, presi-
dent of the bank, to whom Wash
went and restored the $5,266, said
the people of Harris county are as
much to blame as the young man.
“We let horse race bookies arid
gambling places run open in this
county’’,' he said. “Young men
handling funds get the idea they
can beat these rackets, and it can’t
be done”.
A department of justice agent
filed the charge. He and F. C.
Whatley, deputy United States
marshal, went to a Travis street
house to arrest Nash.
Whatley pictured a traffic scene
as the teller was taken from the
presence of his wife and beautiful
two-year-old child.
Officers said the teller became
panic stricken over the $1,323.90
shortage.
He took $5,266 and left . Goose
Creek, going to Houston, they said.
After staying overnight, W. T.
Busch, executive vice president of
the bank was called. Nash was
instructed to make the restitution
to Mr. Moore, president of the
bank, who lives in Houston.
Arraignment was to be today.
A bond of $25,000 amply covers
the shortage, Busch said.

Nazi Battleships Are

(Copyright, 1936, By U. P.)
BERLIN, Aug. 20.—Ger-
man warships were ordered today
to protect German shipping “by
all ipeans” from interference by
Spanish government vessels out-
side aie three-mile limit of Span-
ish- territorial waters.
The German charge d’affaires at
Mhdrid-was instructed1^by the-for-
eign |fficc to inform the Spanish
government of the order, ,
The order—the gravest issued by
a government in all the five weeks
of the Spanish civil war—was the
result of the stopping by two
Spanish warships of the German
steamship Kamerun off "Cadiz. r
It was announced that^ie'order,
was to prevent a recurrence of
such incidents. Even before the
order, there was a noticeable
flare of anger over the detention
of the ship,
“Protest immediately and in the
sharpest form against the action
of the Spanish warships, which
constituted a violation of all in-
ternational law”, said the order to
the Madrid diplomatic officer.
The fact that anger in Germany
over international matters, as dis-
closed publicly, is regulated care-
fully, hy the government, lent im-
portance to the incident.
Articles, obviously governmen-
tatly inspired, in today's newspa-
pers, call the Spanish warships pi-
rates, buccaneers and freebooters
