Narcotic Squad Rescues White
Baby IN Den With 2 Negroes
Boy of Three, Believed Kidnapped, and With Black
and Blue Bruises Covering Body, Found in Raid
on Basement i'm West 18th ST. Adelicts Arrested

A white child of three, bruised and
emaciated, was yesterday brought into
the sunshine from an unwholesome den
in the basement of West 112th Street,
where he was found sleeping between
two negroes, during drug raid led
by DR.. Carleton Simon, Deputy Police
Commissioner.
His body was black and blue with
marks of beatings. When gently
awakened by the raiders he covered
in fear from Carrie and Clarence
Brown, who. according to DR.. Simon,
are confessed drug addicts. He was
taken to the Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Children and will be
formally arraigned in tie Children's
Court to-day.
The Browns were arrested on a
charge of impairing the morals of a
minor. They were arraigned in the
Washington Heights Court yesterday
and were held by Magistrate Moses
Rittenberg in $500 bail each for ex-
animation on Wednesday. They were
unable to explain satisfactorily how
the child came to be living with them.
The surmise is that he may have beer:
kidnapped, although no child answering

his description is on the record of the
missing at present.
Says He Has Two Mamas
DR.. Simon describes him as a child
of Jewish extraction, gently bred, but
in low physical condition as result
OF ill-treatment, malnutrition and lack
of fresh air. Every effort will be made
to find relatives of the child. He gives
his name alternately as "John' and
Jimmy Brown" and says he has two
mamas, zone black and one white"
His hair is light chestnut and his eyes
are brown. A short scar is visible
across the bridge of his nose.
The Browns yesterday told contra
dictory stories of his parentage and
said they had had him for three years,
in fact ever since he was an infant.
Neighbors tell of having seen him only
during the last three weeks. He was
kept in duress under threat of beirg
beaten and was not allowed outside
of the stuffy den where he was found
early on Sunday morning.
The basement where the furnaceman
and his wife lived has been under OBJ
servation by the Narcotic Squad for
some time past. In search of drugs
and in response to complaint that a
white child was on the premises, DR..
