lives and loved ones. He described
the crime as shocking and revolt

pointed almost two weeks ago by
Colonel Lindbergh as go-between
Of hearing from the abductors.

with him, have been working con-
stantly on the case.
Either they haven't got the
baby" Spitale said eprly to-day,
''or else they are In a spot where
they can't talk. Even our best
competition can be damaged with
all. this heat and there's nobody
crazy enough to take q chance Of
getting this rap"
Maybe they are in custody right
now" he said, but he refused to
elaborate this statement.
Spitale believes the kidnapping
was an INSIDE job" but admitted
he had nothing on which to base
his theory except his own deduc-
tons.
The name OF the third nurse,

Annette Copin, Union City. N. J..
Police declined to say where Miss
Copin is, but said she had been
questioned.

tigation are Betty Cow. now living
at the Lindbergh home, and Miss
Marie Cummings Of New York

included the collapse OF several

may have been kidnapers, as made
by Miss Teresa Derci, Il former
Miss Derei, formerly OF New
York, now Of Wertsville near here,
has repeated her story twice to
police who believe Il may be Of
some Importance.
Late February 20, she said. she
walked along Wertsville road when
IL blue sedan with three men as
passengers stopped and ono of tho
men inquired directions TO the
Lindbergh home. j.
~ pointed out the direction and
went my way. Two of the men
were swarthy. the other was q

in the back seat" She believed
she would know the men were she
to see them again and she was to
look over rogues gallery pitchers.
Colonel Lindbergh was flying
most of that day; Mrs Lindbergh
and the baby were at the home OF
her mother. Mrs Dwight Morrow,
at Englewood.
The two servants sought were
those reported to have left the
home of Mr. and Mrs c. L. Light
foot, Franklin Park, near New
Brunswick, the day after the Kid

An auto trip in the Lightfoot
car, supposed to have covered
about 10 miles. was recorded on
the night of the kidnapping as about
so miles. the distance to Hopewell
and back.
| A chisel was missing from the
/, Lightfoot home, as was lumber
from packing cases similar to

der. The servants claimed to be
German. and German word was
reported in the ransom note LETT
in the Lindbergh nursery.
| These incidents. and several

service of the two missing en-
ployes, led to renewed search for
them after first reports on them
had been discarded as immaterial.

Removal OF the oath will be a
purely domestic matter, DE Valera
said, and he did not propose to
enter into negotiations with Bri-
tain about It. His party is pledged
to remove the oath from the Free
State constitution.
De Valera said the government
proposed to suspend operation OF

DIFFERENTIATION of votes from
LIS North Dakota precincts to-
day gave Governor Franklin D..

manding majority in the democrat
ic presidential preference primary
over his Oklahoma opponent, Gov
ernor William II. alfalfa BilD
Murray.
The vote, as reported to the
United Press from more than half
of the states 2,192 precincts, was:
Roosevelt. $29,967.
Murray, $17,251.
Majority, 12,716.
While the missing returns are
largely from country precincts. po-
litical observers believed it impos-
sible these votes would go counter
to the strong Roosevelt trend evil
denced throughout the state.
Outside of the Murray Roosevelt
contest greatest interest was cen-
tered on the huge democratic vote.
County auditors reported ample
evidence that republicans had en-
tered the democratic primary in
large numbers. This IL allowed
under the North Dakota law.
The largest democratic vote re-
corded until this time had been
less than $4,000.

4PERCENTB BEER
BILL FAVORED
IN COMMITTEE

Although doomed to defeat in
the Senate, the Bingham 4 per
cent beer bill appeared today al
most certain of receiving endorse
ment of the Manufactures Com
mittee, as a result of an informal
poll which showed seven favor
able and six against.
The committee is expected to re-
port the bill favorably next week,
when Senator La Toilette (R) Of
Wisconsin. chairman of the COM
mittee, returns from his home
State.
The informal poll showed:
For Beer-SenatorS La Toilette,
Metcalf (R) of Rhode Island,
Davis CRO of Pennsylvania,
Wheeler Cd of Montana. Bulk.
ley CD of Ohio, Cutting CD of
New Mexico and Long CD of
Louisiana.
Against-McNary (RD of Ore,
gon, GoldSborough (R0 of Mary
land, Hatfield (RO of West Vir-
ginia, Smith CD of South Caro-
lima. Sheppard CD of Texas and
CoStigan Cd of Colorado.
The beer proponents, aware
that their bill has virtually no
chance of passing the Senate,
nevertheless assert that they will
receive at least 80 votes, the
largest wet vote since 1920, when
the Volstead act passed the
Senate.

A new loan of 5000, 900, 900 to
the Reconstruction Finance Cor
poration was announced by Sec
retary of the Treasury Mills to-
day.
This boosts the total taken by
the Treasury to $350,000, 900. The
corporation has exhausted the
$150,000,00O obtained through the
first stock subscription, loans ac-
tually paid out of the Treas.
ury through March % having
amounted to $141,000,000.
Question of Routine
Some time ago Governor Eu-
gene Meyer, chairman of the cor.
poration board, said the corpora.
ton would issue its debentures for
sale to the Treasury prior to ask
ing another stock subscription.
However, the policy was changed.
Officials said it was a mere
matter of routine which method
would be used.
The new loan for the corpora
ton indicated its intention to
speed activities materially. An ef-
fort will be made to reach the
peak of loaning in May and June.
Credit ~ Railroads
Important railroad loans we're
