Persons living in the vicinity told

new APPEAL TO
BABY KIDNAPERS
Apparently Places Little
Hope in Efforts of Co.
BetWeenS.
BY BATES RANEY
United Press staff Correspondent

HOPEWELL, March 26.-ColoneI
Charles A. Lindbergh was under
stood today to be considering an
other direct appeal asking kidnap-
ers of his 22-months-old son to get
in touch with him.
Such an appeal would be the
fourth made by the colonel and
would indicate he did not place
much faith in the hopes of three
Norfolk (Va.) residents, that the
baby is being held near Norfolk and
will be returned soon.
"The leads" in the investigation
seemed to be as confused as ever.
State police continued to discount
the value of the report from Nor
folk, and continued to look for
Harry Fleischer, alleged member of
Detroit's purple gang" and Abe
Wagner, New York bootlegger.
Ad Appears Again
In New York, another of the series
of mysterious personal ads signed
"Jafsie" appeared in the American.
This one read:
Money is ready. Furnish simple
code for us to use in paper" Each
one of the "Jafsie" ads, while con-
tanning no mention whatever of the
Lindbergh case, might be interpreted
as coded messages to the kidnapers.
The Norfolk report was that Dean
H. Dodson Peacock of Christ
Episcopal church, Rear Admiral Guy
Burrage, and John H. Curtis, ship
builder, claimed to have been ap-
preached by representatives of the
kidnapers who offered to return
the child in advance of ransom.
Denied by Cops
But Colonel H. Norman Schwartz
kopf of the state police replied there
was mo positive evidence of any
kind indicating that the kidnapers
fled by way of the Delaware river or

Free Will.

Most OF us have been told that our
minds are free. We have all been more
or less indoctrinated with the philos-
ophy of free viii.
This doctrine has made neurotics out
Of many persons. Fortified with what
they take to be fact concerning their
freedom, they do battle with everything
that interposes a veto. A struggle be-
tween their own ideal world and the
living world Of reality Is on. Then
comes worry. Next comes repression
Then comes evasion. Finally a break
down, yariouSly called nervousness
neurasthenia, pSychosis.
The doctrine of free viii needs to be
modified in many respects. In the firSt
place you must recognize that some OF
your promptings (acts Of will) originate
in your unconscious mind. You must
have done lot of things for which you
can assign no logical reason. In other
words, there are times when you do not
hold control over your ideas. To that
extent your mind is not free. So free
will is not a fact before the act.
Another thing. We should modify
our notion about the cause Of things
In all the physical sciences, cause and
effect are taken for granted. No physi-
cist would say that things happen "ac-
cidentally."
The same attitude should be assumed
for the world of mind. Every mental
act has its reason for being what it Is

aboard the old u. S. S. Newport, which
carried the original Canal Commission
and a large party Of surveyors to Mica
reella. when his ship was ordered to 90
blockade duty on the northern coast OF
Cuba and of Havana.
Years later, when the World war
came and he had risen to the rank OF
captain. he was given command OF the
battleship Minnesota.
One night In January of 1917 as his
ship was proceeding calmly on the coast
of Delaware to Philadelphia 1t struck
German mine. A hole 80 feet long was
torn In the MinneSota'S underwater

side of the keel to the starboard armor
shelf and protective deck.
He brought the ship into port with
out loss of life For this he was award
ed the Distinguished Service Meoai

meritorious service in a duty OF great
responsibility"
But you'll have to 60 to the Navy

stantly and prefers to talk about guns
For ordnance is his pet subject. He
is always figuring out some problem in
this field. The magazines, papers and
books that he reads are spotted with
pencil drawings of guns and the like,
He admits that members Of his family
are careful Of what they leave around,
because they know that If there is any
white space on it he'll use it to sketch
a gun.
His knowledge Of ordnance has been
recognized by the Navy. After the
World War he was assigned to the Bu-
reau of Ordnance as a member OF the

president Of this board.

LITTLE BENNY
BY LEE PAPE.

In school today Miss Kitty was tell
ing lis all about unselfishness and how
it's one of the greatest things there Is
and the best way to be, saying, You
must strive all your mite against self
ishness and I'm sure you all do when
YOU think of it. I'm sure you can all
remember some act Of unselfishness
that YOU have accomplished during the
passed week, and 1 want you to write
it down and describe it in few well
chosen werds in the form of a compo-
sition, she said.
And she gave out paper and some
wrote and some couldent remember
anything, Miss Kitty saying. Well now
sippose I ask few boys to read us
their acts of unselfishness, I will begin
with Benny Potts.
Meening for me to read mine. Wien
did, being, One day this week me and
a friend of mine put together all the
old newspapers we could find in our
cellars and took them around to the
junkman in my trends express Wagon
and the junkman gave us cents
apiece. and we was sitting on my front
steps talking about what We would DO
with the money and We decided to each
nut it in our banks and save it, and we
was talking about what a CRATE thing
1t is to save your money instead OF
spending it as fast as you get it and
then not having any left to either save
or spend, and just then the waffle man
drove passed ringing the bell, and my
friend quick jumped up and bawt 5
cents werth with his cents and un-
selfshly did the same with my cents
to save him from the Embarrassment Of
having to offer me some when dident
have any to offer him some.

Fashion is now throwing weight in the
balance on the side of shorter hair, and
much of the ground won by the advo-
Gates of long hair within the past year
seems to have been lost
The cause of this reaction in favor Of
short hair rests with the millinerS.
And, aside from the motive of comfort
and GOODNESS, you will find that most
women who are going back to shorter
hair are doing so because they find IT
increasingly difficult to arrange long
hair to advantage with the new hats
that tilt off one side OF the head.
Don't imagine that women are con-
tent to go back to precisely the same
sort of short hair to which they were
accustomed. Variety they must have
