through the agency, among others, OF
Dr. John F. Condor, aged Bronx edu-
Gator, and John Hughes Curtis, Nor
folk, Va, boat builder.
Through Dr. Condor, who had negoti-
ated for return of the baby through
newspaper advertisements signed "Jaf-
sic" he paid futile $50,000 ransom
which DR.. Condor passed over a ceme-
terry hedge in the Bronx.
Payment of this money was followed
BY direction of the people who received
1t, by series of airplane flights by the
distracted father in search of boat on
which the baby was said to be held
This boat was never found and Col
Lindbergh finally came to the conclu-
sion that he had been duped and maoe
public the numbers of all the ransom
bills in the hope of thus tracing the
people who had so cruelty deceived him
He has always expressed complete
confidence in DR.. Condor.
Curtis Under Bail.
After the baby's body was found, at
which time Col. Lindbergh was on
boat following a clue given hlm oy
Curtis, the Norfolk shipbuilder was ar
rested and charged with oostfuctmg
justice.
At trial at which Col. Lindbergh
was one of the principal witnesses,
Curtis was convicted. He was sentenced
to serve one year in prison and pay a
fine of 81 900 and is now at liberty
under bail pending appeal.
During all the frenzied months OF
search for the missing baby and at

After the Curtis trial Col Lindbergh
sought to occupy his mind by turning
once more to business affairs and has
spent much time daily at his own ofhce
on lower Broadway and in the offices OF
Pan-American Airways in the Grand
Central district, an international air.

director. Only yesterday he made a
short test fight at Newark Airport OF
a new type Of plane.
Although Mrs. Morrow returned from
abroad recently to be here at the time
of the birth of her grandchild, the new
baby's two aunts and an uncle, Elisa
beth, Constance and Dwight Morrow,
were still abroad.
When the first Lindbergh baby was
kidnapped Mrs Lindberghs first thought
was for its health. The baby had been
suffering from a cold and only for that
reason had the Lindberghs stayed over
the week end and been in Hopeweu on
the night the kidnapers came.
In the hope Of safeguarding the
child's health, Mrs. Lindbergh broadcast
a detailed description of the baby'S diet
and begged the kidnaperS to continue
this diet pending their return of the
child to its parents.
Besides his work for aviation, Col.
Lindbergh has also more recently
turned to scientific investigation and
has been a frequent worker in the
laboratories of the Rockefeller Institute.
He has published an article on the re-
suits of his search and is known to
have been continuing his work, al
though little has been made known OF
its nature.
Had No Guards on Estate.
When the Lindburghs first built
their home at Hopewell, in the isolated
Sourland hills region, 1t was generally
supposed they would have their estate
guarded against any possible inter-
lopers. Col. Lindbergh, however
wished to be on completely neighborly
terms with the nearby farmers and
tradespeople and for this reason had
no guards in his employ.
There was much speculation today as
to what means he would take to guard
against kidnapping of the new baby
No immediate steps in this direction
would be necessary, however, as the
Morrow home has always been fully
guarded since the first Lindbergh baby
was born there.
The baby lost through kidnapers was

plexion, golden, curly hair. He re-
