GENERAL JOHN F.
 ORPHAN RESIGNS
Police Commissioner of New York Was Anxious
 to Quit Job

New York, Sept 21-(U.P)- Chief Inspector Lewis J. Valentine was appointed police commissioner of New York to-day to succeed John F. O'Ryan whose resignation, With his two ranking deputies, was announced 8 few hours earlier.
 Valentine was brought to his chief inspectors post as soon as the fusion administration took office. He immediately headed a spectac- ular .anti-gambling campaign. Un- der the Tammany regime he had been denoted to captaincy and sent to an outlying precinct fol- lowing gambling raids on Tam many clubs. .
 O'Ryan's announcement which revealed that Harold Fowler and Harold L. Allen, his first and sec ond deputies were r1eigning with him. also revealed tlz3t the resig- nations were submitted September 13, but wre kept secret.
 They were accepted yesterday. Although O'Ryan's resignation has been rumored for some time, the news came as a surprise because tho commissioner had given the impression by his great activity that he would not quit.
 O'Ryan, soldier, lawyer, and business man. was prospective candidate for the fusion nomina- tion for mayor last summer. He withdrew in favor of Mayor La Guardia, and when La Guardia was elected he appointed O'Ryan his police head.
 Differences of opinion between the two officials soon became mani- fest. During the taxicab strike the mayor advocated a liberal attitude in the treatment of demonstrators while O'Ryan advocated sterner measures.

 The neighbors knew vaguely that Hauptmann had said he made a killing in Wall street--around $25,- O0O--about the time he quit work two years ago. They also recalled that Mrs Hauptmann went to Ger many 10 visit her parents in the summer of 1882. Up to that time she had been working in the res taurant Lut she didn't return to her job when she got home.

 The Hauptmann home Is nothing pretentious. The house is an ordi- nary twO-story structure and the lawn is unkept. Recently they bought a $400 radio set and some expensive walnut furniture.
 A quantity of red furs was found In the house and police said they had learned that Hauptmann had been dealing in them with q part ner named Fische. who died In Ger. many last December.
 The neighbors were frankly puzzled and surprised by Haupt- aann's arrest "Why. I'd never have guessed it.' one woman exclaimed. "Even after we heard he'd made some money in Wall street. he didn't act like 2 man with money. Flo just walked around here in a lumber jnchet.

BANDITS CRASH
 NEW YORK BANK

New York, Sept 21-(UPl--- Three bandits robbed branch of the Corn Exchange bank and Trust company of $50,621 today, after slugging the night watchman and tieing up nine employees as they reported for work.
 The robbers gained access to the bank through a skylight. They sur piised the watchman, John Kane, knocked him unconscious and con- cealed themselves to await arrival of Edward Renehan, bank manager.
 As employees came through the door they were seized, bound and tossed into a big closet. When Ren- chan arrived he was forced to open a safe and the robbers scoop. ed up the money and fled.

New York, Sept. 21.-UP).- Bruno Richard Hauptmann until to- day was known to his neighbors as a steady, reliable man whose son bore vague resemblance to the Kidnapped child of Col. Charles A.. Lindbergh when he played cards, the sta s were never high.
 Hauptmann also had his mysteri- ous side. neighbors said, but this was passed off as due to taciturnity and, as far as money was con- cerned, to bit of luck in Wall street.
 ! The baby clothes of the Haupt- mann child were hanging on line in the back yard when curious per sons first began assembling at the house upon word that the owner had been arrested for possessing the Lindbergh ransom money. The lO-months-old boys name is Man fred.

 "Hauptmann never did much talking" one neighbor said. Usually. when you met him. he'd just say. Hello and let It go at that. He was an enthusiastic hun. ter and played q good hand of pinochie. We played every once in a while. but never for stakes of more than q dime for 260 points" Another neIghbor added that IIauptmann sometimes went to Canada on hunting trips.
