Police Crime Record

By Associated Press.

NEW YORK, Fob. 12.-Although
he is wanted by the police in con~
nection with a. half a dozen crimes,
.“anpcr Don" Collins today is pre-
paring. unmoiesrcd to return to
Paris.

The police expect that he will be
accompanied by Mrs. Helen Marie
Patterson HeyWorth. his fiancee,
“ho followed him here from Paris
when he was extradited. last year to
serve eight months for larceny.

The treaty between France and
the United suites under’ which he
was extradited saved Collins from
the net of the law when he was re-
leased from the penitentiary yester-
day. The terms of the treaty give
him a. reasonable time in which to
return to the country where he
sought asylum after skipping ball
after his conviction for larceny in
1920. Although he was arrested up-
on his release yesterday the district

 

attorney ordered that he be releas-A

cd.
Collins announced his intention oi"

returning to France. He apparent-
ly had made his plan! some time in
advance, as it was he who informed
the district attorney of his rights
under the treaty with France.

“I must be going." said Collins.
when the district attorney had
agreed to his release. "I’ve got
some money in France waiting for

I.
mil'm going straight, ” said Collins
as he shook the district attorneys
hand. The latter told him he had
a “reasonable time" in which to
make his departure.
