FIT. WORTH. Tex, Sept. 90
The Texas Republican trap for dis
gruntled Democrats has been baited
with a 50-year-old, square shoul-
dered business man, Orviile Bulling-
ton, who aspires to the governorship
of Texas.
Many voters are ready to walk
with heads high into the Republican
trap next November. Graciously ad-
hitting the qualities of Mrs. Miriam
A. Ferguson's canned peaches, they
stubbornly deny that any good could
come out of another Ferguson re-
gime.
Texas Republicans were quick to
see possibilities of breaking political
fences. They planned to assail
Democratic fortreSses with the
strongest campaign ever made.

RAILROADS NEED HUGE
GAIN FOR NORMALLY
Roads Must Regain Half of Traffic
Lost Since 1929 Peak.


Lost Since 1929 Peak.
30 Scripps-Hoioard Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.-When
the nations railroads regain one
half of the traffic they have lost
during the depression since 1929,
their earnings, because of economies
they have instituted, will be normal
again.
This estimate is made by w. w.
Colpitts of Cloverdale and Colpitts,
consulting engineers Of New York.
Without counting in the 10 per
cent wage cut now in effect among
railway employees. and taking no
cognizance OF the new proposal to
cut wages by 90 per cent. starting
next Feb. l, Colpitts estimates that
when the carriers regain half of the
traffic they have lost since 1929,
their net operating income will be
slightly more than it was in that
year.

Fight Over Taking Stump
Has President Tied Up
in Turmoil.
BY RAYMOND CIAPPER
United Press stan Correspondent

Copyright. 1892 BY United Press
WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.-Divi-
sion in the cabinet is responsible
for the delay of President Hoover
in making known his campaign
speaking plans.
Treasury Secretary Ogden Mills is
urging Mr.. Hoover to remain in
Washington as originally contem-
plated. War Secretary Patrick
Hurley, just back from the west, is
telling Mr.. Hoover that he must go
out to the country If he expects to
win the election.
The barrage of conflicting advice
has been pounding on President
Hoover ever since the Maine cleo
ton returns brought discouraging
news a week ago. It reached an
intensive stage over the weekend.
Major Schism Feared
Some fear that unless Mr.. Hoover
intervenes and cuts off the ccatro-
versy, q major schism which might
weaken the morale of the party or
ganization may result. Advisers are
lining up on one side or the other.
The question of whether the Re-
publican strategy shall be revised
in the midst OF the battle by send
ing Mr.. Hoover out on the stump
threatens to obscure all other mat
ters within the party general staff
until it is settled.
Republicans have ceased to treat
Governor Roosevelt lightly. The
Republican comment on his Salt
Lake City railroad speech was that
it had been cribbed from President
Hoover.
The Republican national COM
mittee view authoritatively was
stated by Labor Secretary James
Doak when he said that Mr.. Hoover
had recommended to congress the
very plans which MIR. Roosevelt now
adopts as his own"
Hatfield Alarms Mills
Considerable surprise therefore
was caused when few hours later
Senator Henry D. Hatfield (Rep.,
w. Va), after conference
with Mr.. Hoover, drew from his
pocket a typewriter statement
which commented on Roosevelt's
Salt Lake speech as follows: This
is not presidential stuff. 1t is the
kind of economic nonsense that one
would expect from a visionary, or
a peddler of dreams"
Treasury Secretary Mills, who has
supervised most of the Republican
propaganda, threw up his hands
when he read Hatfield's statement
He declined to trust himself to pub
lie comment.
Mills wants Mr. Hoover to sit in
Washington and educate the coun-
try as to the reconstruction
Finance Corporation by radio talks.
He believes the Republican fight
should be staked largely on the
r. F. G.
Farm States Feared
Mills soon is to leave for the coast
on a speaking tour of which the
climax will be an address to the
American Bankers convention at
San Francisco. He believes similar
trips by other cabinet members will
be sufficient.
Hurley, on the other hand, feels
that the cabinet has fired its heav-
lest shots already, and that the
President himself must take up the
battle.
Some of the Presidents advisers
believe that the party will have tc
talk about something besides the
r. F. G. to win the farm states
where mortgage foreclosures are
taking farms away from their own
ers, and throwing them on the hands
of banks and trust companies.

ficials, apparently had cleared
himself of any suspicion In the
case, and his friend, Johansen
Junge, already has been released
from questioning.
Failure to learn Immediately tho
whereabouts of Spitale led to re-
ports all night long that he and
Colonel Henry Breckenridge. Lind
bergh's personal representative,
had been In conference during
the night at Princeton. This re-
port had little more basis than CIV
en- for hundreds Of previous reports
in the case. 1t was denied at
Princeton.
Lindbergh's refusal Of an inter-
view was believed to be based on
his belief, already apparent. that
principal hope for return of his
baby was confined to direct deal
ing with the kidnapers; that the
less said by him to police and the
public, the better, excepting pub
lication Of such statements as
might be required by the kid
napers.
The flyers action In calling for
underworld help was taken without
consultation with police and state
authorities In charge Of activities
here. 1t was believed based on
advice OF his attorney. Colonel
Breckenridge and Detective John
j. Fogarty, serving under Breck-
inridge's direction. Fogarty was
bodyguard for the flyer during his
triumphant tour OF America that
followed the solo flight to Paris.

also followed within a few minutes
an interview given by Captain
Lamb at the Lindbergh home.
Lamb answered were these. and
the almost uniform reply was:
mot to my knowledge"
Has Spitale or Bite ever been at
the Lindbergh home?
Have they communicated with
the Lindbergh home or with Lind
bergh or with anyone connected
with the case?
Are there any indications that
/ the introduction of Spitale and
Bitz will insurae the safe return
of the baby?
Has any communication been re-
ceived at the Lindbergh home say
ing that the baby Is safe and
| weli?"
Have you determined or can you
learn who suggested the names OF
Spitale and Bitz to Lindbergh OF
how these two underworld charac.
tiers were suggested? Al don't
know that they have been suggest
ed.
Have the kidnapers designated
any representative to get In touch
with spitale and Bite or 70 act az
Intermediates?
The Lindbergh's appeal to the
two New York underworld charac.
tiers. one OF whom was linked with
Jack 6egs) Diamond. and the
other rated as henehman OF the
first. came at midnight saturday
night.

yatore) Spitalo and Irving Bite

will also follow any other method
suggested By the kldnapers that

The message was broadcast over
al radio stations. and every Sun
! day newspaper IN the country.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1932-03-07

But the Lindberghs last night
got their first good nights sleep
since Charles Jr., was seized from
his crib last Tuesday night. And
the state police officer stationed at
their estate told the press officially
to-day that the state police believe
the baby is still alive.
So, before the fire in the Lind
bergh home will, a blizzard blow
ing outside, the Lindberghs in
dulged In the hope that their pray
ers and those of thousands of their
fenow countrymen were about to
be answered.
T, ,rhere was an unmistakable re-
taxation OF tension among police
though lessening Of their patrol
Strength In the Hopewell region
could be attributed at least in part
to the inclemency of the weather.
The force Of rs detectives from
nearby Jersey cities which on Sat-
urday operated in this vicinity was
down to a dozen to-day while the
state trooper patrol in the Lind
bergh estate and nearby was re-
duced materially.
The state troopers denied there
was any strain In relations between
the Lindberghs and the patrol.
0ther sources said they noted a
@oolness which only emphasized
the fact that the Lindberghs now
4re really operating independently
og the authorities.
d The press conference report to-
cay also included the following
Questions and answers.
IQ--Did any note instruct Colonel
Iindbergh to announce Spitale and
Bitz as Intermediates four days
utter the kidnapping?
: A4-No.
Odd the kidnapers leave u
token to distinguish their later COM
municatfons to Colonel Lindbergh
from the fake messages?
\ A--No.
Q-Was the milk bottle found in
1ohnson's car the property OF the
company which furnished milk for
the Lindbergh baby?
! A-1nvestigators working on the
johnson angle have not yet report
I'd.
Q-Wnl Johnson be released un-
der bond or will he be detained
further?
A-That depends on the outcome
Of the questioning.
Q--Has Colonel Lindbergh asked
the state police not to interfere
with the negotiations for the safe
return of the baby to the house?
Has anyone made this request?
A-No. No.
Q-What Is the basis for the dis
agreement between the police and
Colonel Lindbergh as to the method
of procedure in this case?
: A-There Is no disagreement.
Q-Was the time at which the
baby was put to bed on the night
Of the kidnapping his regular hour
for going tobed?
Ayes.
Q-Will you tell the movements
Of Betty Cow from the time she
put the baby to bed until the kid
paping was discovered?
