The Coe heist included a $300,000 wedding necklace among over $400,000 in jewels and cash taken without waking the couple or servants.

Army and WPA spray battle gypsy moths in Pa hills
In a coordinated effort by the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture United States Department of Agriculture and the Works Progress Administration an entire mountainside was sprayed with liquid via mile long hose lines under 1000 pounds pressure and projected over 100 feet into the air as part of the gypsy moth eradication in Luzerne Lackawanna and nearby counties. During winter and early spring 400000 acres were scouted and permits obtained from thousands of property owners. Enclosures with over seven miles of fencing protected infested areas and more than 300000 burlap bands were wrapped around trees as moth traps and detectors. The pest defoliates and eventually kills trees.
