HOOVER DIRECTS SEARCH.
Orders Federal Agents to Louisville to
Give Assistance.

j. Edgar Hoover, head of the JUS
tice Departments Division of Investi-
cation, today was directing by tele-
phone and teletype the intensive
search by a special kidnap squad for
the kidnapers of Mrs. Berry v. Stoll
of Louisville, KY.
Harold I. Nathan, assistant director
of the division, was at Louisville to-
day in personal charge of field opera
tions in the man hunt. Agents who
have made a near-perfect record in
recent kidnapping Investigations have
been concentrated in the Louisville
area.
While the kidnapping technically is
not at present within the actual juris-
diction of the Federal Government,
Hoover ordered his men into the
case at once on the assumption that
some Federal angle will be found to
have been involved before the inquiry
is far advanced. This policy is be-
ing followed in all kidnapping cases
with a view to affording the public

and local police the fullest co-opera-

Under the Federal "Lindbergh law"
kidnapping is a Federal crime only if
the body of the kidnapped person is
transported across a State line, or if
ransom demands are sent through
the mails. To defer Federal action
until it can be established whether
Mrs. Stoll was taken across a State
boundary would be giving the kidnap-
ers a tremendous advantage. Appar-
emily the mails were not used by the
kidnapers in the Louisville case.
Attorney General Cummings has
authorized his department to dispense,
as far as possible, with red tape and
other technicalities when lives of kid

The maid, whose husband is q
caretaker on the Stoll estate, admitted
him. She said he looked and acted
like a fiend" He fooled around with

away the connection. Mrs. Stoll
who had been i'll several days, came

these arrangements were. Schmidt
said the note promised the kidnapers

William Stoll told reporters the fam
lily would welcome negotiations from
the kidnaper. Later he issued the fol-

cruelty, Mrs. Dorothy Frances Harding
of Mount Rainier, Md, today asked the
Circuit Court at Marlboro to annul
her marriage to George Paul Harding,
also known as George Joseph Hardy.
Her bill of complaint says Harding is
now serving three to six years in Lor-
ton as result of charges growing out
of the shooting of Doc" Davis in
Washington in April, 1888.

suggested that if the man went north
he crossed by boat and used another
car he had on the Indiana side.
Barricading the roads by Indiana
highway policemen was believed to be
the best hope of catching him in this
direction.
To the south and west the kidnaper
would run into fairly well settled and
hostile country. But if he could run
through the populous bluegrass, elude
the radio warned squad cars Of Lexing-
ton, KY, police and reach the hills he
might be hard to find. Should the
kidnaper know the country, officers
commented, he might find a lair indefi-
nitely in this region.
In Louisville and its environs a
painStaking hunt went on all night.
Safety Director Wakefield ordered all
men who were off back to duty and
put his so detectives on continuous
service
The large county police force did the
same.
officers were placed in the Harrods
Creek phone exchange, which serves
the Stolls' neighborhood. All calls to
homes of any of the family were
checked.
Grounds Are Cleared.
All automobiles and spectators were
cleared of the estate this morning
by Agent Hurley.
A furry of excitement was caused
by the appearance of a red mono
plane circling low over the estate. 1t
was later found to be a newspaper
plane. Not only were automobiles
ordered off the estate but they were
cleared from Lime Kiln lane for a
distance of half mile.
George Stoll said he could think of
no enmity held by any one toward
his brother or any member of the
Stoll family which might be response
BILE for the kidnapping.
Questions as to this angle of the
case were prompted by a remark
made by the kidnaper to the maid
that "if Berry comes here I'll kill
him"
The theory that rivalry in the oil
business might have led racketeerS
to abduct Mrs. Stoll was given little
credence by her brother-in-law.

point out three other cases where

There was typed demand for $780,

and $4,000 inserted.
Stoll armed himself and went with
Hardin to look over some barns and
empty houses in the vicinity. He
found nothing. This search was re-
peated by citizens and officers later
last night.
Mrs. Woolet described the kid
naper as 80 or 35 years old, weighing
about $50 pounds, with dark hair,
slicked back, and dark complexion
His description was broadcast by the

Of Louisville agents, took charge. At

set up headquarters and questioned

Fowler Woolet; Mr.. Stoll and neigh
bors and other servants.
Wynn refused to say anything pub
licly about the case. Maj. Schmidt
said even he was excluded from the
