 DO you know John Hughes Curtis?"
 "I do."
 Lindbcrgh glanced toward Cur tis for the first time since the trial started. He showed no emotion. After several sharp tits between defense and prosecution, Lind bergh continued:
 "Burrage said he had received information from Curtis which he thought important enough to bring to my attention. Mir Curtis stated that he had been approached In the vicinity of Norfolk by n man claiming to be able to bring about return of my son.
 "Mr Curtis wished to know what amount of ransom 1 was willing to pay if my son were returned. l replied that 1 could not discuss any amount of ransom unless l had positive Identification of the persons with whom was dealing. Curtis said the amount of $25.000 had been suggested and tho people he was in contact with were willing to give mo an opportunity to iden- tify the baby before paid the ransom. They agreed to receive payment after Identification by me-"
 "on the 18th of April Mir Curtis and Mr Bruce (E. B. Bruce. El- mira, N. r., banker) came to my home. The subject of discussion was what Curtis had been doing. Curtis said he had seen several hundred dollars of ransom that l had paid through Dr Condon. (Jnfsie of the want-ads, who paid $50, 900 of Lindbergh's money in a vain attempt to ransom the baby). Curtis said that he had checked the numbers of the bills against newspaper lists and there was no question that the numbers corre- sponded."
 "What else was said?" "At that time I suggested to Mr Curtis that I be in the general vicinity when he made contact with the gang"

 "The gang was split into two groups. one was led by Dynamite and the other by John. John was by far the most desperate character in the gang. Dynamite was in control.
 Curtis claimed John wanted to sell the baby to the group making tho highest bid, but they were afraid to carry out the negotia- tons with any other gang. 'Dyna- mite agreed to return the baby to me. Curtis said two of tho men in the gang were named Eric and Nitu p

IA Tnited Press

BY United Press
WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-Presi-
dent Herbert Hoover was advised
today that several New York bear
raiders" said to have been operat-
ing on the markets, will be called
before the senate banking commit
tee hearings. which open Saturday
as part of the administrations cam
paign to curb short selling.
Senator Frederic G. Walcot Rep.,
Comm. a member of the senate
banking committee, made this reve-
lation on leaving the White House,
after a lengthy conference with the
President.
I'VE intend To call in several New
York Stock Exchange bear raiders"
Walcott said. 81 do not think we
should give out their names yet, but
several of them will be called dur
ing the hearings, which open Sat
urday. Z assured the President Of
that"
Quiz Exchange President
In response to a query, Walcott
said that Richard Whitney, presi-
dent of the New York Stock Ex-
change, probably will be called
during the hearing"
The report was made to Mr.. Hoo
yer as part of the war against what
is felt by the administration to be
an increasing evil. The President in
recent weeks has had numerous
conferences with f~inanciers from
New York and elsewhere, including
George Whitney, a brother of the
president of the stock exchange.
The President, in a recent
statement, emphasized that Sin
dividuals who use the facilities of
the exchange for such purposes
(short selling) are not contributing
to the recovery of the United
States"
Big Guns Into Play
In this statement the President
said he and other administration
leaders had expressed u views
to the managers of the exchange
that they should take adequate
measures to protect investors from
artificial depression of the price of
securities for specializing profit"
The senate committee hearings
opening Saturday we're expected to
bring big guns into play in the
offensive against continued bear
raiding, particularly on the New
York Stock Exchange.
Senator Walcott, in respose to
queries, said that to his knowledge
the committee had no intention OF
calling in wheat operators from
Chicago or elsewhere.

PASTOR SHOWED
OFF AIR FIGHTS
IN HIGH COURT
Seeks to Set Aside Ruling
of Commission Closing
ShuIer Radio Station.

By Scyipps-Hofoard Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Feb. 26-A fire.
eating radio reformer, once a south
ern mountaiIieer and now a Meth
odist preacher of Los Angeles, prob
ably will be the center of a free
speech contest before the United
States supreme court.
He is the Rev. Robert p. Shuler,
pastor of Trinity Methodist church,
south, whose radio voice was stilled
last November by the federal radio
commission, when it revoked license
for his station KGEF on the ground
that the pastor had abused his
privileges.
Shuler's attorney, Louis Caldwell,
has prepared an appeal from the
commissions ruling, on the ground
that it had no right to censor his
~utterances by denying him a license.
Misstatement Charged
This appeal will be argued in the
district court of appeals. Should
this court uphold the commission,
Shuler would appeal to the supreme
court.
The commissions action was
taken in face of a contrary recon-
mendation made by it's own Exam
liner Yost.
In the commissions ruling, Shuler
was declared to have employed
methods certainly not in the in
terests of the public or the rendition
Of a commendable broadcasting
service"
THE broadcasts of this party are
hlled with misstatementS of fact
and insinuations based thereon"
the commission ruled.
"A reckless use Of facts, accom-
panied by little or no effort to as
certain the real truth thereof, has
featured his radio talks.
Criticise Father Coughlin
While this commission does not
have the power to censorship, it
does have the duty of determining
whether the standard fixed by law
has been, or will be, met by the use
Of a broadcasting license"
Since Shuler has been deprived of
his air pulpit some of his dry SYM
pathizers have complained to the
commission about the wet utter
ances of Father Charles E. Coughlin
of Royal Oak, Mich, for his broad
casted criticisms of DR.. Clarence
True Wilson and other drys.
