> MAGISTRATE ALLEN GETSDEFENGE VIEW OF LINDBERGH CASE Attorney for Hauptmann, Old Friend of Local Man, Thinks Appeal Will Win Conviction that the verdict in the Hauptmann trial for the kidnaping of the Lindbergh baby should have in- cluded life imprisonment because the evidence, outside of the handwriting testimony and the possession of the money was purely circumstantial and extremely weak, was expressed by Frederick A. Pope, attorney for the defense, in a letter to Edward 8. Al- Jen, city police magistrate. Allen, who has tried cases in New Jersey courts with Pope and is a ‘warm personal friend of this mem- ber of the Hauptmann counsel, wrote to Pope for some of the inside story of the trial. In his reply, Pope stated that the defense is going ahead with the ap- peal and he believes they have very Strong reasons for reversal. Pope questions the state's testi- mony regarding the handwriting evi- dence. In regard to this he said, “While there was a striking similar- ity between the handwriting in some of the ransom notes and the admit- ted handwriting, the outstanding fact is that the nursery note—the one left on the window sill—was very differ- somewhat similar in general charac- ter, was striking dissimilar in other respects and was not used for Purpose of comparison by the state's experts. It was said by Trendler to have been written by a different per- 60n.” The case is just as much a mystery @s ever, Pope declared. None of the following questions have been an- swered: How did the kidnaper know the Lindberghs were going to remain over the week-end and over Tuesday? How could they know that the south- east window was the only one that could not be locked? In view cf the fact that there was a 35-mile gale blowing that night, if the window was opened why did not the doors slam? why didn’t the dog bark?
