LOOT FROM ROBBERY
Elm Smuggled To Europe
(N.Z. Press Assn.—Copyright) LONDON, Sept. 11. A million pounds was smuggled out of Britain at least a fortnight ago. Scotland Yard had discovered, the "Daily Herald” reported. The money had been split up and taken to the Continent by five criminals who planned the great train robbery, the "Daily Heraild” said. The five—some of whom had fled abroad with their waves—now planned to live in Europe or South America on the proceeds of the raid, the newspaper said. The ‘‘Daily Herald” said detectives now knew that the ambush of the Glasgow-to-Euston mail train at Cheddington, Buckinghamshire, had not been planned by one man. Five planners had sat down at a south London club to draw up the blueprint for the robbery, working on information from a former railway worker. Now they had fled abroad and almost certainly had changed their names and had their faces altered by plastic surgery.
