Criminal Law of New Jersey
May Force Long Delay
In Hauptmann Case

TRENTON, N. j., Oct. % GIN.
S0.-Trial of Bruno Richard
Hauptmann on the charge Of muir
dering the Lindbergh baby may
not be held until January, 1885,
due to New Jersey criminal law,
it developed today at a press con-
ference with David T. Wilentz, at
torney general of the State.
The New Jersey law provides
that criminal trials must be COM
pleted before the expiration Of the
term of the grand jury which
brought the indictment.
Defense Seeks Delay
The term of the Hunterton
county grand jury which indicted
Hauptmann expires December 10.
James M. Fawcett, attorney for
Hauptmann, informed the attor-
ney general yesterday that he
wishes at least five or six weeks
to prepare his clients defense.
The attorney general said that
his inclination was against OPP
posing any reasonable request for
time on the part of the defense
to avoid any cry that Hauptmann
was being "railroaded." That
would necessitate the case start
ing after December 10, and At
torney General Wilentz was in
sistent that the case will not
be tried during the Christmas
holiday.
Such a move would put the
case over until the first week in
January. However. Wilentz said
that he was going to confer with
Fawcett to see if he could not
persuade him to ask for only
three weeks.
Fawcett will insist the trial date
be set not earlier than December
II, when a new court term starts.
He declined to give specific rea-
sons for seeking such a delay, but
intimated he needed additional
time to check up on stories Of new
witnesses.
New F1Sch angle
A hint of the evidence possessed
by those witnesses was contained
in the following statement issued
by Fawcett:
81 have received a number of
letters from persons who said
Isidor FiSch, frequently known
as John Fisch, from whom
Hauptmann received the ran
som money, was the kidnaper
John of st. Raymond's Gene
terry"
To counter such testimony, the
State will produce the testimony
of it's handwriting experts who
have examined Fisch'S handwrit-
ing and exonerated the furrier of
writing the ransom notes. They
said Hauptmann was the actual
writer of these letters.

Near Approach of Election Day

Political Missions
BY GEORGE r. HOLMES
International NewA Service

Two weeks from today the coun-
try goes to the polls to pass on
the New Deal.
AS the campaign turns into the
home stretch, the Democrats are
serenely, almost glowingly, con-
fident. The Republicans are hope
full, but not optimistic.
Straw votes, informal polls,
private soundings, all the familiar
machinery which politicians en-
ploy to forecast an election, point
to continued Democratic control
Of both branches Of Congress by
overwhelming figures.
See Senate TwO-Thirds
The Democrats concede that
they may lose some seats in the
House. But they don't believe
they will lose many, and, to off
set any loss in the House, they
are confident of picking up from
four to eight seats in the Senate,
which will give them two-thirds.
The trade of some House seats
Tor Senate seats would be good
deal, so far as the Democrats are
concerned. They don't. need the
House seats, for their present
majority there is so large as to
be almost unwieldy.

tensive recovered plateau 400
miles east of Little America was

ut is much too early to make

finding of the plateau at first

any Of the riddles of the Pacific
