Governor Conley and Kump clash over payroll and promises
A 1930s conflict outlines Governor Conley’s salary cuts with resistance from some officials and Governor Kump’s fixed $8,000 pay. The piece argues the administration increased spending, created departments, and ignored anti-nepotism pledges while promising fiscal reform and a government–people pact. It notes inflation fears and calls for recovery through cooperation. It also references a kidnap band case from page 1 and a Dewey Gilmore arrest in Dallas with Heady’s Kansas City apartment context.

O'Malley and Bank Robbers Nabbed After Extradition
Thomas Bush and deputies surrounded the apartment house and captured Heady and a woman claiming to be his wife. At 10 30 a.m. Monday an armed man entering quietly was identified as O Malley who surrendered after a warning. A gun was taken from him. On Tuesday Floyd Henderson was seized at Joplin Missouri. Heady and the woman and Henderson waived extradition and were moved to Oklahoma City. Conroy said Thomas Limerick, once arrested at St Joseph, was allied with O Malley but did not join the bank robbery. Luer, 77, was dragged from his home July 19 1933 and held five days for a ransom of 100000 before release. He was kept in a cramped hole under a shed on a farm near Eagle Park St Clair county Illinois.
