THE links in the human chain of protection
that has surrounded Jon Morrow Lindbergh
- since his secret birth in New York City
apartment are today being strengthened rather
than weakened.
AS this is written, the efficient Englewood
Police Department is planning to install in its nine
Empowered cruising cars the very latest thing
in radio. Not only will the cars have receiving
sets through which will blare the alarms from
headquarters; they will be equipped with send
ing apparatus by which they can talk to head
quarters and to each other. Even the great New
York City Police Department has nothing so mod
ern as that.
The waves emanating from the master send
ing set in headquarters will be keyed down so
that they will carry only in the general vicinity
of Englewood. twill be possible to pick them up
only through the deicately-attuned instruments
in the police cars; no other radio receiving set
will be able to tune in on the messages. A radio
equipped car could be standing right alongside
police car when message was flashed out; the
police radio would pick it up, but the other set
wouldn't. Similarly, message sent from po-
lice car will be received only by headquarters
and the other police cars.
It will be readily seen what a valuable addl-
ton the new police radios will be to the already
well-nigh impregnable buttress that has been es-
tablished at the Morrow estate. At least one Of
the nine cars is always rowing in the vicinity.
In the event of possible trouble at the estate,
headquarters would be notified imme ediately over
the direct wire that connects with the Morrow
mansion, and word would instantly go out over
the police radio. In fine, it would be but matter
Of seconds from the time warning was shot from
the mansion until the command, "All cars go to
the Morrow estate! All cars go to the Morrow
sstate!" reached the cops in the scouting ma
chimes. By the same token, it would be but
matter of few seconds until the car nearest the
property arrived on the scene.

State Police that his baby had been kidnapped,
only to have the trooper on the other end, natu.

Then, too, should the cops in the car nearest
the Morrow grounds notice anything untoward
in or about the premises headquarters, and the
other eight cars could be instantly notified.

artistry. And, of course van Duren had fallen
head over heels in love with her.
She may have returned this affection, but it
was not long before into the picture came daz-
zing amount of the richest jewery-and
prince. Soon, too, Edmonde had a stable, and her
colors were familiar on the French tracks.
The prince may for time have been the
third who transformed the party" into
''crowd," because the trio were seen everywhere.
But day came when Edmonde wished no more
of van Duren either as companion or dancing
partner.
Then it was that, heartbroken, he cast about
for someone to replace her and selected Dora
Duby. The future was bright with promise, since
van Duren had contracts to appear with part
ner in many revues and in motion picture to be
made in Germany. So they went to work at
once rehearsing the routines which had delighted
so many audiences. Yet van Duren was wretched.
He could not forget Edmonde Guy.
So, one morning, his servant found him dead
of an overdose of drug in which he had sought
solace. Paris shocked, gave him funeral at

When she and Dora met they carefully planned
and carried out together dancing tour of India
and returned to Paris with added distinction and
well-fled purses.
Just at this time Dora met Ernest van Duren,
a favorite dancer in the French capital who,
without much heart in it, was seeking stage
partner Before this he had starred at the Casino,
the Moulin Rouge, in every noted dancing place
in Europe with Edmonde Guy. She was one of
the most exquisite women of the Paris stage.

the first baby. His prints had not been taken,
and only smudged, worthless impressions were
obtained when the toys in his nursery and other
things his little fingers had touched were sprin-
kled with fine white powder.
The specter of years of uncertainty, during
which Col. Lindbergh and the former Anne Nor
row would never know whether their child was
dead or alive, loomed up. The Charley Ross case
was recalled. Little Charley had been lured from
his home in Germantown, Pa, in the COS, and
vanished as completely as if he had been whisked
off to another planet His father crcled the globe
and spent fortune in futile effort to trace the
child.
: In the years that followed, various children
came forward, claiming to be the missing boy.
The parents could never be certain. Even today,
every so often bent, grizzled old man trudges
out of the nowhere and announces that he is
Charley and lays claim to the fortune that still
awaits Charley in a Pennsylvania bank. Perhaps
one of these old men is Charley. But there were
no fngerprints of the kidnapped boy and there
fore no claim can ever be proved.

by situation so dire they were at their wits end
to combat it. The money they had saved to gain
the tutelage and opportunity the French capital
affords, or the slender remittances they received
from home, shrank to pittance. Soon that was
gone, even for the necessities of existence.
1t drove them into hopelessness from which
they sought escape as temperament prompted.
