All Maryland Police
Are Tested for
Blood Aid

The Maryland State police,
riding the highways in all
kinds of weather and in heavy
traffic. realize they are likely
to be injured at any time and
that a blood TRANSMISSION might
be the one thing that would
save their lives.
With this idea in mind, DIR.
Howard M. Bubert, physician
of the Maryland State police,
has had blood tests made of
every man on the force. Each
substation has been furnished
a list of the men and which
of the four blood types each
one represents. In case of an
accident, the man nearest the
injured patrolman is rushed to
the hospital and a blood trans
fusion made.
The list contains the names
of five men who cannot be
called upon for blood.

NORFOLK, May g, Capt. F. H. Lachmann of the yacht Maroon, used by the Norfolk negotiators in an attempt to contact with the kidnaperS of the Lindbergh baby, expressed the opinion that the kid napers intended to abduct Colonel Lindbergh.
 "These men asked no ransom before the baby's delivery" Lach- mann said. 'They said they would return the child safe and sound and depended on Curtis good faith to pay them on delivery so what could they have been aiming at if not to get Lindbergh?"
 He revealed especially for the first time that Lindbergh was on board during the cruises in search of the child and that the boat was heavily armed. There were stores of ammunition and Browning au- tomatic rifles aboard the yacht each time the craft went to sea.

CANGSTERs BELIEVED
 ID HAVE RUBBED OUT
 TALKAT|vE BOOTLEGCER

TRENTON, N. J. May B. New Jersey State police spent most of Sunday in questioning several un- underworld characters which they are holding. They hope that these persons will make some admission which will give them a clue in their search for the slayers of the Lindbergh baby. The police also conducted a frantic search for the bootlegger who described the child's manner of death even before the body was found.
 Because this person has so com pletely disappeared it is feared by police that he has been rubbed out" by gangsters because he knew too much.
 Dr. Condon did not take any part in the activities but he was still be- ing followed by two detecctaives; much to Condon's annoyance.
 The church of Rev. DodSon H. Peacock at Norfolk was crowded to capacity Sunday but the Reverend avoided any reference to the case.
