STOCKHOLM, Sept. 5 IN.S)
The guests of Crown Prince
Gustaf Adolf, Col. and Mrs.

Stockholm quietly today.
All official receptions were
banned by the crown prince in
accordance with a promise he
made the Americans when he
asked them here.
The Lindberghs flew here from

their second trip to the land of
Colonel Lindbergh's ancestors

Before he returns, Colonel Lind

member what that conversation
holds in future for the boy.
From officers of the ship came
stories of how there were times
when safety of the Flying Colonel
and his wife gave all aboard the
"Jelling" cause to fear.
Feared for Their Safety
On August 3, according to Chief
Mate Carl Pilegaard, when the
Lindberghs were between Baffin
land and Davis Strait, there was
one of those intervals of fear.
Pilegaard said:
1--WE couldn't make cOnnec-.
ton with the plane and went Is
miles out of the harbOr looking
for them, but relief came when
we heard the roar Of the motor
and the Colonel dropped down
to tell us his radio had been out
of commission"
Capt. Oscar Hoegstedt insisted
that the Flying Colonel was 1.-The
greatest man ever" and added:
"That goes for his wife, too.
They were democratic at all
times and never wanted any
thing aboard that caused
trouble"

A former head of the Italian

to Help Ship Messboy
to Become An Aviator

NEW YORK, Sept. 5 QN.S0.
A 16-year-olds sailor boys whole
life and futue is wrapped up in
the hope that Col. Charles Lind
bergh won't forget.
Alfred Jensen, of Aalborg, Den
mark, hustles food from the galley
to the tables on the "Jelling," j"
Colonel Lindbergh's supply ship
on his recent trip to survey a pos
sible North Atlantic air transport
route.
Sent Indy Note
At Cartwright, when Lindbergh
came aboard, the boy looked at
him with awe. He did not even
dare to speak to the man who was
like one of the old gods of morse
mythology to him. Instead he
wrote a note, asking:
"Can 1 ever become an avia-
t0r?"
TIE slipped the note under Col
onel Lindbergh's plate.
Lindbergh sought the boy out,
later on, and talked to him. He
learned that Jensen had pleaded
for his job as mess boy, before
the Jelling's crew was picked, in
the hope of meeting the ace of
the air. He learned that Jensen
has an obsession-airplane en-
gines and airplane construction.
Lindbergh's reply was:
81 think you can be an avi-
atOr."
Then-Jensen told about it to-
day while the supply ship lay
docked in Brooklyn-Lindbergh
told the boy he must study, per-
feet his English, and eventually
go to a good flying school to be
taught his flying fundamentals.
And, so says the boy, Lindbergh
concluded:
"I'II see if can't help out
on that"
Jensen is in America-and he's
hoping that the Flying Colonel

Vice Chairman Claims

Miss Anita Pollitzer, vice chair

the various codes says:
"In more than 60 of the

BA|LEY'S 8 PALS,
GIRL HUNTED
IN GOTHAM
Sweetheart Given Ride by Un.
suspecting Sheriff; Believed
To Have Ransom Money

NEW YORK, Sept. S GN.SJ.
A smart, stout woman, modestly
dressed and carrying a black
grip, was the center Of fever
ish search here by police and
Federal agents.
She is the sweetheart Of Har-
vey Bailey, notorious outlaw, who
fled the Dallas (Tex0 Jail in o
spectacular escape, only to be re-
captured four hours later after
a thrilling airplane and motor
car chase.
In her grip is believed to be
at least part of the 100000 in
marked bills, paid as ransom for
the release of the kidnapped
Charles F. Urschel, Oklahoma oil
millionaire.
Three Others Hunted
Three other members Of the
kidnap gang are thought to be
with her-George r. ("Machine
GunD Kelly; his wife, Kather-
inc, and Edward w. Bentz.
The trail of the quartet, which
Department of Justice operatives
followed from the Southwest only
to lose it in Ohio, was picked up
again in a unique manner by
Sheriff Ellis, of Ithaca, N. Y.
Last Friday the sheriff was
driving alone out of Ithaca, along
Route II, New York State High
way, when two women signaled
him with their thumbs in ap-
proved hitch-hiker fashion. He
gave them a lift as far as
Dandy, about five miles distant,
where they thanked him pleas
antly and got out of the ma
chine.
Alarm Broadcast
When Ellis got back to his Of
flee his eye fell upon a Depart
ment of Justice circular which
carried photographs of his two
hitch-hikers. They were Bailey's
sweetheart, known as Luis Clark,
and the Kelly woman, both Of
whom were wanted for the Urschel
kidnapping.
The sheriff promptly broadcast
a circular of his own, relating his
contact with the women and
warning the New York city au-
thorities they had told him they
were headed for the metropolis.
The extreme caution with which
the Clark woman guarded the
black bag she carried led the au-
thorities to believe it contained the
ransom money.

cuffs. Harvey Bailey, desperate
charged with the two major
crimes of the year, today was in
solitary confinement in the
county Jail while Federal authori-
ties investigated his spectacular
escape from Jail at Dallas, Tex.
Twelve guards were keeping a
constant watch over the des-
perado who is awaiting trial for
the 100000 kidnapping of Charles
F.. Urschel here and the machine
gun massacre of four officers and
their lone prisoner at Kansas
City.
Federal Probe On
A caravan of six automobiles
commanded by Federal authori'
ties and manned by guards armed
with machine guns brought Bailey
here late yesterday from Ard
more, Okla, where he was cap
tured four hours after his escape
from the Dallas county Jail.
A Federal inquiry into the es-
cape was under way at Dallas
under direction of R. H. Colvin,
Bureau of Investigation district
head, after Joseph B. Keenan,,
special assistant to the United
States Attorney General in charge
of racketeering prosecutions,
charged that corruption" was
responsible for Bailey's flight.
How Bailey had obtained
pistol and saw blades for cutting
the steel bars of his solitary con-
finement cell was the object Of
a grand jury investigation at
Dallas.
Cour Others Accused
Bailey was scheduled to be ar
raigned today for the Urschel
kidnapping. Others to ne ar
raigned with him are Alfred
Bates, identified one of the
millionaire oil mans abductor's,
and three memAer Of the family
of r. C. Shannon, owner of the
Paradise (Texas) earm on which
Bailey ras arrested.
Police Chief Hale Dunn, OF
Ardmore, captured the desperate
after thrilling and melodramatic
race through the Ardmore bus
mess district. Nick Tresp, kid
naped Dallas jailer, in whose car
Bailey fled, was with his captor
when Bailey was seized.
Fled 80 Miles
Bailey had fled 80 miles in
four hours with Tresp huddled
in the car beside him.
Federal authorities took no
chances on Bailey's escaping from
the Oklahoma City jail. Twelve
guards will keep constant watch
over the prisoner in his solitary
cell on the fourth floor. A heavy
chain has reinforced the cell
door lock.
Bailey has shown preference
for holidays on which to make
his escapes. His Labor Day break
for freedom was matched in dar-
ing only by his Memorial Day
escape from the Kansas State
Penitentiary with 10 other pris-
onerS.

To Be CLOSE

MONTPELIER, VT, Sept. 5
Q.N.SD. - Traditions of three
quarters of century were arrayed
against a surge Of nationwide
wet sentiment today as Vermont
held a special election on the
question of ratification of the
Twenty-first Amendment to repeal
prohibition.
For so years, long before pro.
hibition became the law of the
land, the Green Mountain State
had anti-liquor laws on its statute
books. Even now it has a law
prohibiting the sale of beverages
stronger than 80 per cent, even
in the event of national repeal,
until further legislation is enacted.
Although both wet and dry fac
tions were confident of victory,
impartial observers predicted a
close fight, with the dry rural
sections opposed by the wet cities
and larger communities.
