ROOSEVELT SWING ‘Dead Cats’ Reaction on Secre-| tary Ickes and Richberg Is Capitol Talk Washington, Feb. 7.—(?)—New Deal gossip which teems in Washington during cocktail hours Thursday fash- ioned out of the resignation of five “left wing” agricultural officials a ™mass of speculation as to where the lightning may strike next. More resignations from the AAA were be- lieved to impend. “Is President Roosevelt going to the right?” was the question asked in cir- cles which earlier in his administra- tion interpreted the dropping out of such conservatives as Lewis W. Doug- las, Dean Acheson and O. M. W. Sprague, as signalizing a “left” ten- How the “dead cats” which put dynamic Hugh 8. Johnson in retire- ment will react on Secretary Ickes, for whom some congressmen have been gunning, and Donald R. Rich- berg, whom labor union leaders call & “traitor,” was another question often put—and as often unanswered. President Roosevelt had nothing to say about any reports that the AAA shake-up and his letters to the Amer- ican Federation of Labor rejecting its NRA and automobile code demands represented a swing toward conserva- tive trends.

Out of court after Hudson's testi- mony, counsel for the state said that Photographs of the nailholes were made before he examined the ladder. A state trooper said he noticed ten sia on the night of the kidnap- The defense also sought to weaken the identification of Hauptmann as a man seen lurking near the Lindbergh home before the crime by calling Wil- liam Whitehead to say that the repu- tation of his relative, Millard Whited, for veracity was “not good.” The two men do not spell their names the same way. Whited had testified for the state, placing Haupt- mann near the crime scene. . Veracity—Not So Good William Diehl, another resident of the Sourland hills, followed. As to MA ald reputation for veracity, he said: ““Tain’t any good.” George E.

Fisch was a former business part- ner of Hauptmann’s and it was from him, Hauptmann claimed, that $14,- 600 ransom money found in the Hauptmann garage came. Henry Uhlig, mutual friend of the two men, described himself as “Fisch's best friend,” was on the stand just long enough to testify that Fisch ran a “phoney” bakery, was in weak physical condition when he sailed for Europe in December, 1933, and had never loaned him money, when luncheon recess interrupted. Dr. Hudson's testimony about the nail hole in the ladder upright was in the face of government reports to the contrary. Rail Important Link The ladder rail was considered one of the state’s strongest links in the ctreumstances by which it seeks to send Hauptmann to the electric chair for the kidnaping and murder of baby Charles A. Lindbergh, Jr. ‘The attorney general also attacked Dr. Hudson’s estimate that he had found about 500 fingerprints on the of developing.

Political Dopesters | i Figure Out New One | [By the Associated Press) | Political dopesters, chafing at the comparative quiet prevailing here, figured out a new one Wed- nesday. ‘The dopesters trotted it for- ward with the general demeanor: “Hold your hat, boys.” Here's the latest yarn spun in dull moments by rumor-huck- sters: (1) Acting Governor Walter Welford will resign. (2) Secretary of State James Gronna will be- come acting governor. (3) Where- upon he will appoint Mrs. Lydia Langer as secretary of state. (4) Then Gronna will resign as gov- ernor.
