BIZ United Press
JOLIET, ILL.,. Feb. 11.--A definite
attempt to link Nathan f. Leopold
Jr., millionaire thrill slayer of
Bobby Franks. with the murder of
Deputy Warden Peter Klein of the
State penitentiary, was under way
today.
States Attorney Hjalmar REIN of
Will County said he needed just a
bit of "corfoborative evidence" to
add to the story told by six men sen.
fenced to die for the murder, before
asking for the death penalty for
Leopold, who is serving a sentence
Of life and ninety-nine years for the
Franks murder. Leopold was sem
fenced with Richard Loeb, also the
son Of a Chicago millionaire. after
they had admitted killing Bobby
Franks for a thrill"
The millionaire's son was drawn
into the murder of Klein by state
ments made by the six convicted
men that he had planned the escape
and had admitted having sufficient
money to aid them after the escape
had been effected. The murder of
Klein was not in the escape plans,
but was committed through attempts
to get Leopold out of his solitary con-
finement cell, the convicted men say.
One of the convicts told county
authorities that Leopold even stole
sugar to get placed in solitary con-
finement so that access to the
warden's office. through which the
escape was made, could be more
easily obtained
