On this latter committee, Sinclair said, he was able to be of valuable service to the state.

Ole HH. Olson that he would ask an in- vestigation of the circumstances sur- rounding the loan. Sathre labeled the attack by Husby as “an attempt on the part of Mr. Husby to discredit the attorney gen- eral’s department and generally to cast reflection on the present admin- istration.” “That seems to have been the con- stant care and purpose of Mr. Husby ever since his election and undoubt- edly he will continue that policy Points to Bank Law Sathre, meeting the claims of Hus- by, pointed to the law creating the Bank of North Dakota in support of the loan.

Named president of the road Aug. 27, 1913, Hannaford served in that capac- ity until his retirement in 1920 to serve as‘vice chairman of the board, @ position he still retained at the time of his death.

GRAND JURY HEARS EXTORTION CHARGES AGAINST HAUPTMANN District Attorney Discloses Closet Panel Bearing Jaf- sie’s Phone Number SUSPECT’S LEG X-RAYED Murder Charge Planned by New Jersey; Extradition Prob- able Within Week New York, Sept. 25.—()—District Attorney Samuel Foley announced Tuesday after a 3'4-hour grand jury session the case against Bruno Richard Hauptmann, as receiver of the Lindbergh ransom money was complete. To convey his meaning he used the police term, “the case has been completely broken.” Foley said it had been disclosed be- fore the grand jury that two closet panels had been found in the Haupt- mann home which bore the address and telephone number of Dr. John F. Condon, the “Jafsie” who paid the $50,000 Lindbergh ransom to a sup- “| posed representative of the kidnap- ers. On one, the district attorney dis- closed, was the home address of Dr. Condon and a telephone number which Foley said was Dr. Condon's at the time of the kidnaping. On the other, according to Foley, were serial numbers, one of which has been found to be the number on one of the ransom bills. Foley said the boards were proof to him that Hauptmann was in com- munication with “Jafsie” regarding the negotiations and “Hauptmann is undoubtedly the man who received the $50,000 from Dr. Condon.” Clever Carpentry Foley said the boards constituted a “clever bit of carpentry.” It was recalled at the time of his arrest last week Hauptmann described him- self as a carpenter, now out of work. ‘The board was shown to Haupt- mann, Foley said, and he admitted he wrote the address and telephone number because, he explained, he was interested in the case. attorney for Hauptmann, in @ prepared statement issued through his secretary, said (Continued on Page Two) EMERGENCY TARIFFS ON STOCK FEED SET Livestock Rate for Shipments From Drouth Areas Reduc- ed 15 Per Cent Proposed new emergency tariffs on stock feed into drouth-stricken areas were set Monday in a telegram to the North Dakota state railroad com- mission from L.
