PATRONAGE PROBE

Democrat Charges Republicans

Representative Tillman B. Parks.
Democrat, Of Arkansas, told newspaper
men today he would ask for congress
sional investigation at the coming ses-
sion to determine whether the Hoover
administration has "juggled postmaster
ships to keep Republicans in office
during the first term Of President-elect
Roosevelt"
The Arkansas Democrat said he had
received information that in order to
assure Republicans of postmasterships
for the next four years 1t has been the
general practice of the Hoover admin
istration to permit postmastcrs to serve
as acting postmasters for two years"
This would make most Of the four
year terms Of the first, second and third
class postmasters continue until 1885
and 1887" Parks said, adding that post
masters were entitled to serve four years
from the date Of confirmation by the
Senate.
The situation should be investigated
at the short session, so that when the
new Democratic Congress conyenes 1t
will have the information and can act
accordingly" he said.
Parks also said Senate Democrats
would be justified In turning down con-
firmation Of any more Of President Hoo
ver's appointees in view OF the attitude
taken by the Republicans when they
refused to confirm any Of President
wilson's appointees In his last months

n K|DNAP NOTES
SENT T0L|NDBERGH
Inspector Believes Baby Was
Hurled to Death From
Ladder.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
JERSEY CITY, N. j., November l6
The Jersey Journal, in the first Of a
copyrighted series of interviews with
Inspector Harry w. Walsh Of the Jersey
City Police Department, said yesterday
that Col. Charles A. Lindbergh re-
ceived IA notes from the kidnapers and
slayers of his infant son.
Reviewing all the early developments
of the still unsolved crime, the paper
also quotes Inspector Walsh. one Of the
key figures in the long investigation. as
saying he believed the baby was killed
in the descent down the ladder from the
Iindbergh nursery at Hopewen and
that the United States Department OF
Justice secured the services Of Motifs
Rosner to deal with the underworld.
The interview told Of the discovery
of the empty crib by Betty Cow at
about 10 o'clock the night of March l.
col. Iindbergh Immediately ran up
stairs, saw the empty crib. and on the
sill of the southeast window of the
room found the first of IA notes from
the hdnaper," the interview said.
"This. incidentally, is the first revela-
ton that there were that many notes
I am not at liberty to make public the
contents of the notes, save the two that
were photostated and broadcast on
police posters to show the handwriting.
Then the inspector told OF the hrst
notes demanding $50,000 in ransom
in SIS, $40 and $40 bills and Of its
peculiar symbol-two blue intersecting
skeleton circles with third circle OF
solid red in the center, with three holes
punctured in the symbol. He said all
the IA notes held the same symbol.
Speaking of the death of the child,
the paper quotes Inspector walsh as
follows:
"In brief, believe that the ladder
placed against the window by the kid
napers buckled and broke, and that
as the criminal carrying the babe from
the nursery lost his footing and was
in imminent danger Of being thrown
he threw the babe to the ground to
save his own worthless life at the ex-
pense of the innocent child's."
In supporting his theory, he said both
Col. and Mrs. Lindbergh heard q noise
between e:15 and $50 and spoke Of 1t
at the time. A shaft of one section

"Best Informer" Promised.
The inspector said in the interview
that Col. Henry Breckenridge, close
friend of, Col Lindbergh, telephoned
Edgar Hoover, chief agent of the De-
partment of Justice, few hours after
the kidnapping and was told the best
informer at his command" would be
sent to the Lindbergh home.
1.-THE following morning one Morris
Rosner, a known character in police
circles arrived"
Walsh told the Journal Rosner was
given $4,000 for expenses and that he
operated between the Lindbergh home
and New York for period of three
weeks. He said the only persons he
contacted were Salvatore Spitale and
Irving Bitz, who "heralded their every
movement through the public press and
produced nothing Of importance.
BY working confldentially they might
have got somewhere"

HOOVER DENIES RUMoR.
Says Federal Agents Had No Part I'm
Hiring ROgner.


J. Edgar Hoover, director Of the
United States Bureau of Investigation,
today denied his bureau had anything
to do with Col Lindbergh's decision to
enlist aid Of the underworld In an effort
to secure the return Of his kidnapped
son.
The denial was issued in response to
a published report quoting Inspector
Walsh of the New Jersey State Police
as inferring that Hoover projected
Morris RoSner, underworld character,
into the case.
Inspector Walsh had been quoted by
the Jersey Journal, Jersey City, N. J,
as asserting that Col. Henry Breckin-
ridge had telephoned Hoover shortly
after the kidnapping and that the Gov
ernment official promised to send "the
best informer at his command" to the
Lindbergh home. Rosner appeared the
next day, the inspector pointed out.
II believe it proper at this time
to state" Director Hoover announced,
that at no time throughout the in
vestigation of the Lindbergh case did
Col. Breckenridge call me on the tele-
phone and that my contact and the
contact of the United States Bureau Of
Investigation with the Lindbergh in
Col Schwartzkopf, superintendent Of
the New Jersey State police.
THE inference that I or the Bureau
of Investigation employed or recon-
mended the employment Of Morris
Rosner is entirely unwarranted. Neither
I nor any official of this bureau identi-
fed in any way with the Lindbergh
investigation had anything whatever to
do with the employment Of Rosner or
with his connection with the Lindbergh
inquiry.
Furthermore, I believe 1t proper also
to state that Rosner has not at any
time been employed in any capacity by
the United States Bureau Of Investi-
cation"

ALFONSO XIII WOULD
REPLACE REPUBLIC
Ex-King and Uncle Issue Call to
Spaniards to Overthrow
Government

Paris, Feb. 27.-(R)EFor1ner King
Alfonso XIII and his uncle, Alfonso
Carlos, traditional pretender to the
Spanish throne, have issued call to
Spanish people, the Havas news
agency reported from Madrid Satur-
day, to join together to overthrow the
new republic In Spain.
Former King Alfonso's manifesto,
the Havas correspondent said, de-
clared he accepted his uncle as head
Of the family and that they both hold
the same principle-that everyone
must unite ito save Spanish society
from the wave Of anarchy and COM
munism which has invaded 1t and to
gather under the flag, the sacred
flag to which I devoted my life"
He proposed to those who remained
faithful to the monarchy to restore
it as a form of provisional govern
ment which would summon cortes
to draw up q constitution. The
present republic, he said, is no more
capable Of continuing in existence
than was the short-lived first re-
public in the 1905.
The pretender, to whom former
King Alfonso was reported Thurs
day to have resigned his immediate
rights to the throne. declared he does
not advocate an absolute monarchy
but one which would collaborate with
legislative chambers which really
represent the people.

Appeals Court Affirt11s
Al CdpOne's Conviction
Only Intervention Of U. S. Su-
preme Court Can Avert
Serving Of Term

Chicago, Feb. 27.-(R-The convic-
ton of "Scarface Al" Capone on
charges Of evading income tax laws
was affirmed Saturday by the Uni
ted States circuit court Of appeals.
The high court upheld the indict-
ments in which the gangster was
charged with cheating the govern
ment of some 100000 in tax, the
five Of IL counts and sentenced to
1lyears and a fine Of $4,000. w.
Only the Intervention Of the U. s.
supreme court can prevent Capones
removal to the federal penitentiary
at Leavenworth, Kansas.
Ever since he was sentenced by
Federal Judge James H. Wilkerson
last Oct. "a, Capone has been in the
Cook county jail, where he did not
get credit on his penitentiary term.
Friday the U. 8. marshal placed a
special 24-hour guard at his cell be-
cause Of the many rumorS that he
was still controlling his gang and
possibly planning q break If his ap-
peal were denied.
The appeal was based almost en-
tirely on. the alleged insufficiency of
the indictment. Capone's attorneys
argued the indictments were so vague
Capone could have been tried any
number of times on them and that
because Of their general nature it
was impossible to present a proper
defense.
