Posses Search Mountains
 for Kidnapped Baby
Father Has Refused the Aid of Friends and Officials and Is
 Working Alone.

Springfield, Mo, June 4.--Into the Ozark mountains today and tongibt went searchers for the missing Lloyd Rect, 14-months-old son of J. Holland Rect, wealthy Springfield banker With the determination of seeking out the hiding place from which future abdue- tions similar to that of the Rect baby might be directed and in which the band reported that they may be found, motor carloads or citizens of Spring field and the surrounding countries in large numbers planning to search the hills as carefully as could be done.
 The Ozark mountains hold Spring field within a tight embrace. For many miles they extend in all direc- tions, mostly low scraggling hills yet argely timbered and sparsely inhablt- cd except along the railroads and near the larger stretches
 The Rect Kidnapping has aroused the fears of many. Knowing that the form CT haunts of law breakers might again become the rendezvous of abduction bandits and believing that perhaps such a band had established itsell somewhere near at hand, citizens of Springfield met today and determined 10 carry out a thorough search This was decided as was announced by Judge A. A. Johnson of the Springfield court of appeals, for the double pur peso of seeking tine Rect baby and of quieting the fears of other women that their children also might be abducted by band running loose through the hills.
 The other outstanding development of todays search for tho missing babS was the growing conclusion that MT Rect had determined to play a "lone hand" in ferritng out tine captors oI ! the baby He refused the hid Of friends and Of county officials in tht hill search and told them that such z search meant putting dagger at thC l throat of his child.
 The exact significance of such ( course cannot he determined Rumorl 1 have been numerous. The father hal received scores of letters, telegrams telephone calls and communication from many persons recently While h' has given out that they arc pr'nclpalh offers of assistance and suggestion

 points around the building. Police automobiles equipped with search. lights and each carrying two patrol men armed with rifles patrollod the streets in the neghborhood.
 Many agents of the department of justice and the secret service mingled with the crowds, while companies of the home defense guard worked with the regular police Three regular army soldiers were stationed at each of the doors leading into the hall When the crowd had been forced by several hundred young men climbed on a high fence opposite tho hall and hooted the police as they worked.

Tho sit nation inside the hall was tempestous In he galleries were many young men in Khaki who expressed their disap. proval of the speakers by shouts and ieers
 A youthful speaker who bitterly dc nounced militsrism had just assumed a tragic pose and shouted "giye me liberty or give mo death." when an electric light bulb hurled from tho gallery struck him and exploded with loOd report.
