<i>Title:</i> Senatorial stickup. Washington, D.C., Feb. 17. After inspecting a couple of 45-caliber pistols formerly owned by Jesse James, famed bandit of another generation, Vice President Garner playfully tries his "stickup" technique on Senator Harry Truman of Missouri, present owner of the guns. Senator Truman secured the guns in Southern Missouri from a doctor's wife, whose husband received them in payment of medical services rendered Frank James, another of the James' boys. Jesse James had previously left them to Frank after he was killed by the pinkton men. The bandit garnered nearly $1,000,000 in a series of holdups with the guns, 2/17/38
