Dallas, Tex.—Miss Verda Flowers Is
under arrest in this city, charged with
shoplifting and with teaching others
the art of stealing for a living. Accord
ing to evidence in the hands of the
polic#, Miss Flowers made a business of
locating pretty young girls who were
working for small salaries and taking
them to lunch. Then she unfolded a
plan whereby for a fee of $25 they
♦ would be taught how easy it was to
make some real money and wear the
finest of clothes at no cost.
Miss Flowers was not arrested for
shoplifting, but was caught while “tu
toring” one of her students in a de
partment store. Later four other young
ladies were caught and $3,000 worth
of finery was recovered.*
The plan of instruction In the school
conducted by Miss Flowers included
lectures in the “theory of shoplifting.”

Taken to a Store and Given Instruction.
This consisted in talks and demonstra
tions how to “lift” stuff. Later the pu
pil was taken 4o a store and given per
sonal instruction by Miss Flowers, who
criticized the pupil, giving special at
tention on how to act when suspected.
After the pupil had been pretty well
grounded in theory and plain shoplift
ing, Miss Flowers instructed in
“fancy” lifting, that is in the taking
of skirts, dresses, waists, jewelry,
suits and piece goods. It is estimated
her pupils stole more than $10,000
worth of goods.

tor Wadsworth said, calls for a per
manent standing peace army of 280,
000.
One big army composed of the
regular army as now organized and

vould t>e a part, although the details of the organization of that service re
main to" be worked out. *
Youths within the prescribed age limits would be required to take four
months’ military training with provision made for either the regular array
0r the National Guard of the various states being used in furnishing this
training.
The youths, however, would be given an opportunity to elect either tak

scribed for the four-month period.
Upon completion of this training, the recruits would be placed in a re

ice except in case of declaration of war.
“While the bill will provide for compulsory military training,” Senator
Wadsworth said, “there will be no provision made for compulsory military
service.”
