Don't Condemn Entire
Force, Hoover Warns

Expressing his approval of the Department of Jus
tice action givng aid to the District Commissioners
investigation of recent charges against certain mem
bers of the Washington police force President Hoorer
today sent letter to the acting Attorney General
aChich said in part:
However, we must not overlook the fact that Wash
ingon has an able and devoted police force The vast
majority of its honest should be protected by de-
termining if there unworthy in their midst.
at is always possible that occasional individuals
may have overstepped the law of humanity in the treat
ment of criminals and those charged with crime, and
if 50, they should be severely punished.
But even in such charges the police should not be
prejudged the allegations of criminals or those ac
cused Of crime.
There is too much tendency on the part of some
people to forget the devoted work of the police, to
forget they protect the safety of society and the vic
Tins of criminals, out of sympathy with criminals
themselves"

who was kidnapped and held for
ransom, came back home today.
His haggard face revealing the
strain he has been under during
his week of imprisonment, the
sporting man drove up to. his
spacious mansion on Lake Geneva
a few hours after dawn.
Lynch denied reports that $50. 900
had been paid for his release.
Originally the abductors-who
were sought by the star detec-

About midnight, he said, they

him not to remove the blindfold
for 10 minutes, and then allowed
him to drive away. Lynch con-

REPORTED
FreIinghuysen Checks Shown
to Nye Group; Banker on
Stand, Explains Details

The anti-Smtth campaign con-
Quoted in the South in 1928 by
Bishop James Cannon, jr., Of the
M. z. Church. South, was partly
financed by former Senator Jo-
seph s. Frelinghuysen (R0 Of
New Jersey, a Hoover leader in
the last presidential race, the
Nye Campaign Funds Committee
revealed today.
The committee learned, from
Frank c. Ferguson. president Of
the Hudson County National Bank
Of Jersey City. that FREEING ghnysen
bought s10,O00 worth jOf eashier'si
checks from his bank on October
IA. 1898, for CannOn'S credit.
The transaction consisted Of
two checks, each for 5000. L
Cannon Got $4,000
Ferguson produced the can
ceIled checks, the Endorsements
showing Bishop Cannon had de-
posted the $4,000 to his account
as chairman" of the anti-Smith
Democrats in the Continental
Trust Company here.
It was subsequently testified
by Basil Manly, attorney for the
committee, that the Frelinghuy-
sen contribution to Cannon had
not been reported either by the
former Senator or the bishop.
Manly said there was NO trace
0f the gift in the report filed
with the House of Representa-
tives by Miss Ada L. Burroughs,
the bishops secretary, as treas
urer Of the anti-Smith Democrat.
First Hoover Link
The evidence of these checks
was the first directly linking the
Hoover organization in 1928 with
the anti-Smith campaign con-
Quoted by Bishop Cannon in the
South.
A few days ago, it was shown,
however, that C. BascOm SIemp,
former Secretary TO President
Coolidge, a Hoover leader In
1928. had introduced Cannon to
3. c. Jameson, the New York
capitalist, who gave the anti
Smith organization $6S,3OO In the
course Of the campaign.
Paid For in Cash -

cashier checks sent to Bishop
Cannon had been purchased by
Frelinghuysen with cash. Nye

Tommy displayed such class in

his craftsmanship if he is going to

The old appeal of boxer VS..
