The hundreds of letters received by Hoffman after Hauptmann's convic- tion were said to have prompted the Governor to make a study of the case. | sonal study. Hauptmann's lack of resources also interested the Governor. At the trial one of Hauptmann's attorneys said the defense did not have funds with | which to combat the State’s high- priced expert witnesses. It has been estimated that the investigation and | trial cost approximately $2,500,000. A published report from Philadel- phia that Parker had told the Gov- ernor “the name of the man he be- * lieves kidnaped and murdered the | Lindbergh baby” was denied early oday by Hoffman. The Governor also | | said he had heard of no arrest in the case. “If Ellis Parker had made an arrest T would be one of the first to hear of it,” e said in commenting on a widely circulated report that the detective had taken a suspect into custody. Other sources said they had no in- formation that would lead them to be- lieve an arrest had been made. Wilentz Silent. The interest of the Governor and Parker's independent investigation pleased Hauptmann's attorneys, but the men who investigated the case and prosecuted it were unimpressed. Attorney General David T. Wilentz | former Hunterdon County judge who was a special assistant attorney gen- eral for the prosecution, said he be- lieved the verdict was “just.” “I think the jury and the officials who worked on the case had a better understanding of it than those who are now entering the case,” Large said. The Governor, it was made clear, was not overlooking the three major pieces of evidence which the Court of Errors and Appeals emphasized in its denial on October 9, of Haupt- mann’s appeal for a new trial. These were Hauptmann’s possession of a large part of the ransom money, testimony of handwriting experts that he wrote the ransom notes, and, testi- mony that a rail of the kidnap ladder came from his Bronx home. Denies Mercy Promise. Discussing his visit to Hauptmann, the Governor said he had not prom- ised the prisoner commutation of his sentence to life imprisonment, since he had no authority to make such an offer. The Governor said he understood Parker never had access to State po- lice records in the case and had been “blocked” in his efforts to work with the State police in the early phases of the investigation. Col. H. Norman Schwarzkopf, super- intendent of State police, had little to say of the new developments. “We followed nomul police work and police procedure,’ he said. “We blocked no investigation.” United States Senator A. Harry Moore, who was Governor when the baby was kidoaped, said Parker was one of many detectives called into the case at the outset. He declined to say more than that. Hoffman said Parker has been working on the case since the start. Wife Visits Hauptmann. Hoffman said that he had oot per- sonally inspired an independent in- tern | quiry, but that a number of private xrflmpummuruwdmdmm- sulted with him.

WOMEN | District League Meeting Is Attended by Prominent Feminine Leaders. Republican women were told yes- terday there would be no more na- tional elections if their party fails to win the aiext one. Mrs. William Fitch Kelley, president | of the District League of Republican Womea, addressing a “Save the Re- | public” luncheon conference called by | he: in the Mayflower Hotel, drew mur=~ murs from an audience of 300 women with the declaraticn: “If we don't win this election, there’ll not be any more.” The spirit of meeting was not one of pessimism, however. The New Deal drew severe criticism, directed particu- larly at President Roosevelt, person- ally, and the Agricultural Adjustment Administration. Republican women were advised to “organize, organize, organize” before | drafting any plan for specific action. Speakers also declared women must have a strong voice in party councils if victory is to be attained. ‘Would Enlist Farm Women. Mrs. Kelley attacked the “colossal sponsored by this administration,” and urged women to umite for a house-to- house canvass to spread their doc- ‘mnes Nothing has been done, she | said, to combat the “propaganda” of |the A. A. A. She recommended spe- cial attention to farm women. ““The only experiment not yet tried, | sald Mrs. Virginia White Speel, Re. ’publlcun national committeewoman for the District, “is entirely Soviet- | izing the people of the United States.” ‘Tossing aside ner prepared speech and announcing she was going to “say what I think,” Mrs. Speel said forma- tion of a definite plan at this time was impossible because conditions change so rapidly that “we don't know when we wake up in the morn- ing what will happen to us before night.” The Republican party must win next year “if the republic is to sur- vive,” Mrs. Speel said. Mrs. Lorimer Speaks. Mrs. George Horace Lorimer, wife of the editor of the Saturday Evening Post, and president of the Republican | Women of Pennsylvania, said the re- |cent Republican victory in Phila- delphia shows the “tide is turning” and “people feel safer in Republican hands.” “We are now living under a So- cialistic State,” according to Mrs. Mur- ray Boocock, Republican National Committeewoman for Virginia. She said the Nation should beware of further promises from President Roosevelt because “he never meant to do the things he so joyously prom- ised.” «Mrs. F. G. Tallman, Republican Na- tional Committeewoman for Delaware, lashed the New Deal’s spending pro- gram, declaring the Republican party had never gone out of power without leaving a lower national debt than it inherited, while Democrats always left behind a larger national debt. Mrs. Gann Is Heard. In an unscheduled address, Mrs. Ed- ward Everett Gann, sister of former Vice President Charles’ Curtis, said “thinking people” were convinced that “fear of the future cannot be allayed as long as the present administration is in power.” Republicans must think up = “sound” plan to give employment and fight the $4,000,000,000 “campaign fund,” Mrs. Calvin Gabriel, Republi- can national committeewoman for Maryland, said. Mrs. Elmer O. Leatherwood, widow of Representative from Utah, reported “the West is waking up to what it did to itself in 1932.” Among the prominent Republican ‘women present at the rally were Mrs. Wwilliam Howard Taft, widow of the . Hurley, wife of the former Secretary of War, and. Mrs. Henry P. Fletcher, wife of the chairman of the lm'mt.bnu:e.bntdaemdwdh- cuss it now. _— “THE BIBLE’S BIRTHDAY” spending and activities of the reds| —Star Staff Photos. Republican Women To Grow Potatoes As A. A. A. Protest Mrs. Robert L. Bacon to Raise “Fruit” at F Street Home. ‘The Republican butler of Mrs. Rob- ert L. Bacon, wife of the G. O. P. Representative from the swank fifth district of New York, including wealthy Suffolk and Nassau Counties, next week will sink a pickax into Mrs. Bacon’s yard at 1801 F street in pro- | test of the A. A. A. potato act. During the Winter Mrs. Bacon will grow ‘“protest spuds” on her grassy front lawn and in Philadelphia Mrs. George Horace Lorimer wife of the publisher of the Saturday Evening Post, also will raise the “forbidden fruit.” Mrs. Lorimer announced this yes- terday to a meeting of Republican women from the District, Virginia and Maryland. Mrs. Bacon, after several months spent in Europe, is homeward bound and expects to arrive in Washington within a few days. London (Continued From First Page.) until either Italy or Ethiopia was forced into submission. If I Duce should indicate willing- ness to discuss the plan being drafted by Laval and Hoare to forestall neces- sity of an extension of sanctions, with all its implications, diplomats said an armistice might be suggested to en- able the French and British leaders to discuss their program with Italian representatives. This course would involve the call- ing of a tri-power conference, with Laval inviting Hoare and probably Baron Pompeo Aloisi, Mussolini's Geneva spokesman, to meet him at Paris or on the Riviera for a final | effort to break the deadlock. ‘The first task of the French and British statesmen in their talk this afternoon was to reconcile their still- conflicting viewpoints as to what con- stituted a peace plan acceptable alike to Italy, Ethiopia and the League of Nations. Experis Work on Program. Maurice Peterson and Count Rene de Saint-Quentin, Ethiopian experts of the London and Paris foreign of- fices, had been working on the pro- gram here for two weeks, but were re- ported still at odds over their final conclusions. The major point on which the two nations agreed was their opposition to permitting Italy to take Ethiopian territories linking its East African | colonies of Eritrea and Somaliland. The French opposed any such proj- ect on the grounds that the railway from Addis Ababa to Djibouti, French Somaliland, would be cut in two. The British objected to any such further blocking of land-locked Ethiopia from the sea. . Aside from this, Paris and”London still lacked complete harmony on other points of she program—from the ques- tion of cession of Ethiopia’s Northern Tigre Province to Italy, to the pro- posal for giving Ethiopia an outlet to the sea. ‘The previous “suggestions” for peace, dispatched to Rome by Laval, were reported to envisage cession of an Eritrean seaport to Ethiopia, yielding of part of Tigre Province to Italy, ac- quisition by Italy of part of South- ern Ogaden Province, with the re- mainder of Ethiopia to be absolutely independent.

The Securities Commission today made public hitherto ‘“confidential” reports saying two top officers of the Standard Oil Co. of New Jersey re- ceived salaries of $112,500 each for 1034. W. C. Teagle, president, and W. 8. Farish, chairman, were the men who drew $112,500 apiece. The payment to Teagle represented an increase over the $73,295 he received in 1932, but was under the $125,000 for 1928. The latter two figures * were given in Federa] Trade Commission re- cords. No data on 1933 salaries was available. Analysis of re- ports to both commissions shows salaries in industry were generally higher in 1934 than in 1932, though = down from 1929. The 1934 data W. C. Teasle. o5 filed with the Securities Commission in connection with registration statements for list- ing of companies’ stocks on exchanges. The commission is now engaged in publishing data which had been held back for some time pending decisions on contentions it should be kept con- fidential.

PEIPING, December 7 (#).—Author- | itative quarters predicted today the .enly establishment of a new North | |China administrative organization, | having the approval of Nanking, Japa- | nese and North China authorities. | The reported compromise agreement , reached between Gen. Ho Ying-Ching, 'Nmklnz government war minister, | |and Northern officials was said by Chinese and Japanese officials here to have successfully overcome the present crisis, barring unforseen developments. ‘While an official announcement of the settlement was still lacking, well informed persons said it would involve establishment of an administrative council controlling the provinces of Hopeh and Chahar. ‘The council, it was stated, would be headed by Gen. Sung Cheh-Yuan, military leader of Hopeh and Chahar Provinces, and membership would be limited to North China officials. In these informed circles it was said the council would have virtually un- | restricted administrative powers over | Hopeh and Chahar and would be linked to the central Chinese govern- | ment by only the loosest bonds o( allegiance. The council was expected, it was said in responsible Japanese quarters, to advocate a common front with Japan against communfism and to move for sharp restriction of Nan- king’s monetary reforms as they aflecl North China.

Chief Justice Alfred A. Wheat, of District Supreme Court, ruled yester- day that the alleged gangster must return to Michigan, but Riley’s at- torneys, Harry Whalen and William O’Connell, immediately countered with a request for a habeas corpus writ. Justice Jennings Bailey refused to liberate the prisoner, however, and the lawyers announced they would appeal. Committed to Jail. Pending disposition of the appeal, Riley was committed to jail. Asssistant United States Attorney Allen J. Krouse said he does not expect the | matter to be reached in the Court of Appeals for at least a month. During the extradition hearing yes- terday, Riley admitted that he had been run out of both Detroit and Flint, Mich., by police of those cities and told not to return. Attempting to prove Riley was in Washington in September of 1328, when the kidnaping occurred, de- fense attorneys put Sam Rappaport on the stand. The witness stated he was a gambler and employed Riley during the period in question. Five “Snatchings” Laid to Gang.
