IN TRICK CASE
AGAINST MEANS

Tell of kidnapping

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON. June 10.-The
prosecution in the trial of CASTOR
B. Means, charged with tricking
Mrs. Evalyn Walsh Mclean out of

the testimony of Colonel Robert Gug-
genheim. wealthy friend of the
Lindbergh family, and Captain
Emory c. Land, cousin of Lind
bergh's mother.
Guggenheim told Of being sp-
preached by Means with a proposal
to effect the return of the kid
mapped baby He said Means made
no demand upon him for ransom
money. This occurred before Means
entered into similar negotiations
with Mrs. Mclean, the witness said.
"On Saturday, March 5. I met
Means in the home of Robert F.
Fleming in Edgemore, Md" Gug-
genheim testified. Means asked me
If l knew who he was. I told him
yes, and he asked me if l knew
he had been in jail.
He also asked if I knew why he
had been in Jail. When I told him
I didn't he said they put him there
because he kept his mouth shut and
wouldn't squeal.
Then he told me he had infor-
nation On the Lindbergh kidnapping.
He said week or ten days before
the kidnapping he was in "a very
low dive" in New York.
Il met man l had known in
Atlanta penitentiary, Means told
me. This man said, 'Meansy, you're
Just the man I'm looking for.
We're going to pull kidnapping
job and we need you for go
between.
Means said this man told him
there would be more publicity in
the case than ever before in a
kidnapping, or perhaps it wouldn't
get into the papers at all.
Means told me, AS soon as I
saw the papers, I connected this
man with the Lindbergh job I"
Guggenheim said that Means told
him he wanted to help return the
Lindbergh baby because l have
chance to rehabilitate myself with
the public and I would get enough

ADVERTISING CITED
.ASPROSPER|TY AID
Offers Great Opportunity for
Alert Executives, Says
Gilbert T. Hodges.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, January 7.-Basing his
opinion on 1881 records Of various con-
Germs, Gilbert T. Hodges, president Of
the Advertising Federation of America,
declared that advertising provides
great opportunity for the alert business
executive IN 1892.
Business men are beginning to at
tune themselves to the tempo of the
times" said MIR. Hodges. I'm. 1881
many firms we're afraid to do anything
but retrench. Their executives sat
around passively and awaited the re-
turn Of Utopian conditions similar TO
the boom year Of 1929. But passivity is
not practicable, and business men are
beginning to realize it.
"The thoughts Of the world today are
projected toward one point-how TO lift
financial figures out Of the red into the
black. It can be done, because it has
been done. And this in the depressed
year of 1881.
Many Show Profit.
According TO a recent intensive sur
vey made by our bureau of research,
many hundreds Of impartialiy selected
companies were analyzed. OF these, it
WAC NAoCONNlCu lIlaJ lIlICE~lllBIlS Ilhu
made a profit for 1881. And what is
even more encouraging. one out of
every seven has earned more profit for
1881 than for 1880.
Prom the bureaus analysis, two sig
nticant facts were found common to
nearly all Of the successful compa-
nies-frst, their general merchandising
methodS were aggressive; second, their
specific advertising policies were con-
Onuous."
Hodges made 1t clear that these sue
ceesful companies saw to it that their
product was right and that it was
tsnptingiy presented. Then In the
face of unfavorable conditions, they
had the courage to enlarge their sales
activities. In addition to this aggres-
sive merchandising, three-fourths of
these most successful corporations
either increased or maintained their
advertising appropriation as compared
with 1929.
Courage Is Urged.
What certain executives discovered In
1881 many more will learn in 1882. Ad-
vertising alone cannot drag business
out of the slough Of despond up to the
surface OF success, but courageous ad-
vertising, plus aggressive merchandis-
Ing, will accelerate economic recovery
Success for the approaching year will
come from giving more value for less
money and from telling more people
about 1t.
There are thousands of individuals
with ample funds who should make
many purchases now. Courage, not
ttnnidtty, is the essential quality for the
alert business executive who hopes to
move financial reserves into active
channels"

VermiIiOn Old Timer Dies.


Thomas j. Walsh, who in 1882 walked
into Tower as one of group of ex-
plorers who opened up mining activities
in Minnesota, died at Los Angeles, Cal,
Friday. OF the original party who
made the hazardous trip to Tower in
1882 only three remain alive, Edward
Lynch of Duluth, Joseph Roy of Tower
and Louis Rouchleau of Minneapolis.
Mr.. Walsh is survived by widow
and three daughters, Mrs. Earl LaFond
of Hibbing, and Edna and Frances
Walsh at home with their mother in
Duluth. He was for years figure in the
mining circles in this country and at
one time was private secretary to the
mayor of Duluth.

National Safety Council Calls
Attention to Causes of
Highway Accidents.

Most of the country's $4,000, 600 autos
will soon be rambling up and down
our highways. Already weekend traffic
is beginning to assume midsummer
proportions. Many of us are now suf-
fering from motor itch"- the great
American urge to go places and see
things.
1t will be lots of fun, of course, to
follow the gasoline trail once again.
Also-unless all signs fail-it will be
just about as dangerous as ever.
Every fifteen minutes of 1881 there
was a motor vehicle fatality The
years total was $4,000 fatalities and
nearly million non-fatal injuries.
If history repeats itself the deadly
toll will increase throughout the coming
summer, reaching its peak in early
fall. Then as traffic decreases the &C
cident curve will move downward.
There is just one way to knock the
props out of the theory that what has
happened during recent years is about
to happen again. The secret lies with
the individual motorist; in his ability
to analyze highway hazards, to diagnose
his own case and to discipline himself
to drive carefully at all times.
The National Safety Council calls at
tention to the most important causes
of highway mishaps in the following
interesting compilation of hazards:
Speed-Speed is a major cause but
not the major cause of auto accidents
Drivers need to develop a sense Of
RELATIVELY regarding speed Forty
miles on lightly graveled road may
be safe under some conditions but
dangerous under others. Depend on
common sense rather than the speed
ometer. Adjust speed to conditions and
always obey prescribed regulations.
Improper Signalling what you
are doing when you signal. The other
fellow has a right to assume that you
know your business. Always signal
when stopping, turning or pulling away
from curb.
Running out of Line-In heavy traffic
stay in line. Collisions when cutting
around are usually very serious because
one usually speeds up to get ahead.
Remember it is hard to gauge the other
fellows speed. Be sure the distance

to the last Notwithstanding the
jibes and taunts hurled at them
by some of their colleagues
egged on by county division
pluggers in retaliation for the
stand Tower and Ely took on
the division question.
The division question is not
dead and may become an issue
in the campaign. Until such
time as the business people of
the county including the heavy
taxpayers demand county di-
vision, there will be none.
With the demand on the part
of the people for lessening
expense in all divisions of gov
eminent and the acknowledged
fact that another county gov
eminent will increase expense,
the voter will be very careful
how he marks his ballot on this
issue in case it is decided to
bring the same to a vote. To
be fair, the matter should be
put to vote. The legislature
will in all probability allow it
to go before the people at the
next session with a statewide
bill, giving all dissatisfied Sec
lions of the state an oppor-
tunity to cut loose the aggriev-
ing ends.

On previous occasions we
have commented on the gentle
men of the highway patrol and
have told of their activities.
This week our family car had
an opportunity of asking aid
from the highway patrol and it
was given with grace and
generosity. If Earle Brown
never did another thing, Mime
sofa should be proud of the
force that he has modified to
keep the highways safe for the
traveller. Mr.. Brown has the
ability to mobilize the state
forces for efficiency and service
after he becomes governor, just
as he did the highway forces.
From all appearances, this
early in the game, he will be
given the opportunity after the
first of the year.

According to the report of
the Game and Fish Commission
in another place in this paper,
only 35 per cent of those Sc
curing licenses reported back
to the commission according to
requests made on the licenses
and on the forms attached.
This can be remedied. The
game laws require a report and
if not made, a license the fol-
lowing year can be refused.
Make an alphabetical list of
the 65 per cent not reporting
and send them out to those
issuing licenses. When one of
those whose name is on the
list calls for a license, gently
but firmly, refuse to issue the
same.

No, Marguerite. A sports
man is not a sport. There is a
vast difference between the
two. The sportsman hunts
chickens with a gun while the
sport hunts chickens" with a
car. One wears hunting toys,
travels the woods, and Stays
his game with a we'll aimed
shot. The other wears foreign
looking side-burns, a dinkey
mustache and gets his game
with a honking horn while
cruising about the city streets.
The only similarity between a
sportsman and a sport is, both
use "shots" to get their game.
One out of a gun and the other
out of a bottle.

Crews are being kept at work keeping

The lack of ore requirements, the large

Congress does some very re-
markable things. The measure
to appropriate funds to combat
the grasshopper plague seems
to have been lost in the shuttle.
At the same time the farmer is
being loaned money from the
reconstruction fund with which
to buy seed and which of late
has poured millions of dollars
into Minnesota, the Dakotas,
Wisconsin and other states in
this territory to help farmers
finance their spring planting.
1t looks very much as if the
farmer gets it in the neck again
while the grasshopper is elated.
Seed loans with which to raise
crops for feed for the grass
hopper. Rather inconsistent.
