Bandit Ramsey’s dramatic Yuma escape and capture
A gangling tale from Yuma recalls H M Ramsey, a 27 year old Tempe student, trapped after a stolen car chase. Officers Bert Power and Bill Sloane cornered him at a service station, Ramsey seized control, forced a patrolman to drive, and fired shots before his eventual arrest near Quartzsite. The pursuit, car thefts, and cross county manhunt involved Highway 60, Highway 95, and multiple stations as Ramsey taunted officers and warned of further violence.

The items reference Douglas MacArthur, the New Mexico ad claims, and a U S House Ways and Means Committee move toward a 5.4 billion dollar excess profits tax.
