Wilents. “I was forced by torture and brutal treatment in New York, where I was detained from Feb. 14 to Feb. 24, 1936. “From that date until today I was detained: by Ellis Parker (chief of Burlington county detectives) at the state colony at New Lisbon, N. J., un- der guard.” To which Parker, nationally known detective, replied emphatically that no force was used in detaining Wen- del, adding: “If the Wendel incident investigation 1s not conducted proper- ly, I will tell whht I know, and there's a lot I haven't told.” ‘Was Voluntary Patient millions is named Lance, The superintendent of the state col- ony for feeble minded at New Lisbon, Dr, Carrell T.

His “confession,” which he now re- pudiates, quotes him as admitting the kidnaping of the Lindbergh baby and as the writer of the ransom note found in the baby’s nursery. He said he made no effort to collect ransom, and that he disposed of the body when thé child died several days sub- sequent to the kidnaping. Torture Wendell’s attorney, John Kafes, conferred with him for some time and issued a statement in which he said Wendel .was forced to sign'a “con- fession” at the point of a gun, and that he was severely beaten and tor- tured by. persohs whose identity he did not know. Some sourees pointed out that Parker had worked closely with Gov- ernor Hoffman in the Lindbergh case “confession” which the governor had available for presentation to the court, said that Means was “hired to kidnap and kill” the baby; that he made the ladder used in the kidnaping; and that the lumberyard, the name of which he gave, could confirm that he pur- chased the ladder lumber from it. He said it had been planned to kill the baby at a quarry: near Hopewell. | but that the baby died of a skull fracture.
