 Norfolk, Va, May 2-(UP)-- John Hughes Curtis prepared again to-day to go to sea in an ef- fort to negotiate with men whom he believes to be kidnapers of Charles Augustus Lindbergh. Jr.
 The Norfolk boat builder. who has been away since Friday, re- turned aboard the yacht Maroon shortly before midnight last night and it was indicated that heavy seas had prevented the group aboard from making apother con- tact with their negotiators. Curtis said he planned to start out inn mediately on another trip and 1t was possible the Maroon would leave sometime this morning.
 The Maroon was understood to have steamed out e miles to sea on the trip ended last night.
 When Curtis appeared last night he plainly showed flis1 fatigue. He was unshaven. His clothing was rumpled. his collar wllted and his face reddened by the clements. Ed win Bruce, Elmira, N. Y., capital ist, and Lieutenant l.. Richard, U. s. N., were aboard the Maroon with him. Curtis would not com mcnt only to say he planned to leave again soon. w.t
 "I can not say where or how l am going or whether by yacht. plane or otherwise" S,
 The skipper or the 7. Marcon. Captain F.. II. Iackmann, came ashore, but said he was returning shortly and would he Oreparcd to start out again Immediately. for navigation in the past twenty four hours, was improving some what early to-day.
 Meanwhile authorities here con- tinued to hold three men for in- vestigation in connection with the Kidnapping case. The men gave their names as Robert V. Stark, Piftsburg; Eddie R. Anderson. Palm Beach. Fla; and Henry +. Singleton, Little River, sc.
 The trio had note book in which was notation marked by word 'Lindy" and with a March date. They claimed they were fishermen looking for a job.
 Federal agents from Norfolk, Washington and Charleston. $. C., questioned the trio and 1t was un- derstood two secret service agents either were here or were enroute.
 It was learned to-day that the Maroon on it's last cruise slipped out through the capes after night. fall and waited. vainly at an ap- pointed spot for boat from the kidnapers.

Baby Lindbergh Has Been Missing Now
 For Two Months
Norfolk People Continue to Seek Evidence at Sea While Colonel Lindbergh Has Been on Mystery Trip

This procedure was duplicated on the yachts first cruise ten days ago, it also became known. The same personnel has been aboard on each cruise, indicating the ne- gotiators are taking every precau- ton to insure secrecy.
 Hopewell, N. J., May 2-(UP)-- Baby Charles Augustus Lindbergh, Jr, has been missing from his home for two months and police to-day were no nearer solution of the Kidnapping mystery than on the night he was seized from his crib.
 There was considerable mystery surrounding the movements of Colonel Lindbergh, however.
 He has been away from his Sourland estate for several days recently, presumably in connection with the Kidnapping. Last night Harry Walsh of tho Jersey City police indicated to caller thai I.indbergh had returned home and would see tho visitor if he had any thing of importance to reveal. Subsequently,, however. another state police officer said Lindbergh had not returned.
 Colonel II. Norman Schwartz kopt, superintendent of state police, ignored Il question as to Lindbergh's whereabouts, or whether they had reported any further contact with the kidnapers. This is in keeping with the superintendent policy of not revealing anything concerning Colonel Lindbergh's movements. In a previous bulletin Colonel Schwartzkopf said there was no new information to be given out on the case.

He defended, Japan for its recent acts. MT Naka Is q resident of this city. He gave his version Of the Japanese affair and claimed that the American press gave more of the Chinese side and led the people here to side with the Chinese. The speaker also de. ciared that an American boycott of Japanese goods by the Amer iean people would not hurt the Japanese any more than the insult given them by the Chinese govern ment.
 However, he admitted. America buys about 90 per cent of all the goods made by Japan. The speaker said that the prompt action on the part of the Japanese In shanghai had adverted major conflict.

GOOD MATERIAL IN
 COMEDY PARTS
"See Naples and Die By Little Theater Group
 Has Good Comedy
HERE MAY 5 AND 6

Tho Little Thcater production a, the Waterbury Women's clul Thursday and Friday is a comedy that offers good character ma. terial. The responsibility of car. iying the comedy in "See Naples ard Die" rests on the shoulders oi the following members of the cast Mrs Ray Wood. Miss Margaret Ad- ans, Joseph Mulcahy, Thoma, Itogarth. A. J. German and An. thony Rodgers. c~ .r
 Mrs Ray Wood Is cast as Lucy Evans, an elderly American lady who Is an exuberant chatter box Nothing seems to dampen her en. thusiasm for talking in season and out. She has a positive genius for bursting in on intimate scenes when she Is not wanted. She is one oi those annoying humans that abso- iutely refuses to be crushed by anybody or any situation. After any attempt to subdue her unend- .Lg stream of prattle. she always pops up again just shining with gcniality. Mrs Woods portrayal oi this bromidic character goes a long ways towards making this comedy the biggest hit of the Little The. nter's season.
 Miss Margaret Adams plays Nan. cite Dodge Kosoff, a typical breezy wisecracking American girl, hiding her true feelings behind a mask of fllppancy and light badinage. She has adopted a. rather brusque and facetious manner to conceal her real emotions, which when they do show seem to embarass her. A great deal of the comedy of this role lies in the witty lines. a
 Joseph Mulcahy who is cast as Charles Carroll, an American, has real flair for comedy. His zest of reading in his lines, and able ness in quick repartee makes his character one of the most amusing in the play. MT Mulcahays role it similar to Miss Adams in that he possesses blase exterior, rarely showing how he's really reactinl to tho various situations which arise. Mir Mulcahy has a series oi witty retorts which he makes in a style all his own, that convulses his audience.
 Thomas Hogarth plays Basi Rowlinson, a fussy Englishman who quite fancies himself as q great artist while in reality he is but a second rate dauber. The nor. ais or rather lack of morals of tho Italian Luisa, goes greatly against his grain, as he is an excessively prim gentleman of a very righteous character; his prudishness makes fer many a good laugh.
 A. J. German is cast as Huge vOn Klaus. a stodgy German who Is a stickler for form. His frantic concern 10 serve the Prince Kosofi and pompous formaliticss make 8 very entertaining character.
 Anthony Rodgers plays Ivan Kosoff, an egotisticaf Russian prince. The character is a take-ofi on the Russian introspection. He drifts from one situation to another with a certain bored world-weari. ness, which Is very amusing. Hi' absolute futility and ineffectualitS Is portrayed most realistically bS Mir Rodgers.
 It is interesting to note how eaci member of the cast gets his or he comedy effects. and the fact tha they all have an appreciative un derstanding of their parts, goes long ways towards getting the dc sired results. ,s.

Schemes

movement started to counterfeit it.
The politicians are not to be
stopped in their efforts to make the
workers bear the effects of the
crisis. In Syracuse, there is DR..
Ruthland He is such wonderful
man that hey have to pay him
$4,000 year. Ruthland has dis
covered a method whereby the city
can feed worker on 8 cents day.
This is the standard of relief in
Syracuse.
The workers of Syracuse should
demand that, since the diet is so
wholesome and nourishing, DR..
Ruthland's and Mayor Marvin's
salaries be cancelled, and they be
permitted to live on 9-cent diet,
so that they may learn its bracing
effects.
But even this is too expensive to
the capitalists therefore DR..
Ruthland is trying to find even
cheaper diet that will be just as
wholesome.
1t probably will be like the case
OF the farmer and the donkey,
which the farmer was feeding straw.
The experiment was just about to
succeed when the donkey died of
starvation. We would suggest that
DR.. Ruthland be the donkey.
Binghamton, which is about 10
miles from Syracuse, not to be out
done by Syracuse. The city i,
spending $4,000 month for $4,000
unemployed and their families. On
the basis of five persons to the
family, as is calculated in Syracuse.
Binghamton is spending less than
8 cents per person, although they
claim that it is II cents. They want
to emulate Syracuse's, and there
fore, the new $9,000-a-year city
manager, Harrell, and his relief di-
rector, Talley, should be the donkeys
in Binghamton.
Waiting for relief from the bosses
Is to invite hunger into your home.
The workers will get only what they
FIGHT for. We workers are not
satisfied to starve in country
crammed with food. The time to
get food is NOW!
Organize into the Unemployed
Councils unemployed and
employed workers.
Support the Communist
Party in the fight for ADEQUATE
UNEMPLOYMENT RELIEF AND
UNEMPLOYMENT AND SOCIAL

Vote Communist! Garry on the
fight to Danish unemployment from
the face Of the earth, as the Russian
workers and peasants have done.
