MYSTERY MAN
TO NEICHBORS
Hauptmann Known as ReIi-
able, Steady Person; Wife
Also German.

By Jrited Press
NEW YORK, Sept. 2I.-Bruno
Richard Hauptmann until today was
known to his neighbors as a steady,
reliable man whose son bore a vague
resemblance to the kidnapped child
of Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh.
When he played cards, the stakes
never were high.
Hauptmann also had his mysteri-
Gus side, neighbors said, but this
was passed off as due to taciturnity
and, as far as money was concerned,
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 10
months-old boys name is Manfred.
Mrs. Anne Hauptmann, who be-
fore her marriage was waitress at
a place on the Boston Post road, is
a native German, like her husband.
She is blond, buXom and pleasant
appearing.
"Hauptmann never did much
talking" one neighbor said. "Usu-
ally, when you met him, he'd just
say, hello and let it 60 at that.
He was an enthusiastic hunter, often
going to Canada, and played a good
hand Of pinochle.

Marion at which time, according to
Mr.. Van Zandt, he was squeezed off
the program because the Governor
spoke more than his allotted time, -
Mr.. Van Zandt has sworn to crowd
the Governors speaking time if the
two should be on the same program.
Governor McNutt will have the
ironical task of welcoming Mr.. Van

General Butler has brilliant
record with the marine corps. He
received national prominence again
in 1924 when he was appointed

phia, Pa. In his customary spectac-
ular fashion he reorganized the
police force and hit hard at the
criminal element until he was forced
out by the Ware machine.

AFTER RANSOM TIP

By United Press
NEW YORK, Sept. 2I.-The
man who trapped the Lindbergh
ransom recipient didn't wear his
overalls to work today.
Walter Lyle usually wears his
overalls when cranking out gaSo-
line at a filling station in the
Bronx, but today he was dressed
in a fresh shirt and neat trousers.
Mr.. Lyle was the man out Of
many who handled thousands of
dollars in ransom money who was
quick enough to suspect its source
and who had presence of mind to
jot down clew to the identity of
the man who passed it.
Part of the reward money for
information leading to the Lind
bergh kidnapers may go to him if
the case against Bruno r. Haupt-

Old, White Haired Man Is
Believed Near VinCi-

BIZ United Press

By United Press
NEW YORK, Sept. O.-An old
white haired man-victim of a
heart breaking swindle with the life
of a baby at stake-returned to his
home today after trying to decide
according to his own conscience il
Bruno Richard Hauptmann was the
John" to whom he paid $4,000 fol
the return to Charles A. Lindbergt
Jr.
DR.. John F. Condor, the amiable
"Jafsie" whom authorities are con-
WINGED paid Lindbergh's money tc
the actual kidnaper, partly identi-
fed Hauptmann.
But there still was a possibility
of doubt in his mind, and he went
home to consult his conscience.
MY lips are sealed" he said.
DR.. Condor felt that he was near
his vindication when he was led into
room at Greenwich street police
station last night. There had been
inuendos at the time he paid the
ransom, and he had dedicated his
life to vindicating himself.
Twenty men were lined up in the
rom, all staring at him. Inspector
John j. Lyons invited him to pick
John" out.
May I proceed by elimination?
he asked.
"Of course"
Condor walked straight up to
Hauptmann. He then picked out
three detectives. These four he
lined up and questioned individually
particularly about the spelling and
pronunciation of their names. He
listened intently as each man
spoke.
He then sat down and wrote
two notes. The first he handed to
Hauptmann.
Read aloud" he said.
Hauptmann read:
Il always keep my word. If the
baby is returned in good health,
will do everything to help you"
Hauptmann was nervous, inclined
to tremble. Condor ignored the
other three men, handing Haupt-
mann the second note. Hauptmanr
read:
Are you ready to act? We can
not wait longer. He will smash me-
Then Condor asked permission to
talk to the prisoner alone. They
conversed in a corner for a few min
utes. Condor turned away without
comment. Police said he had made a
partial Identification"

MOdernize Your Home
BY ROGER B. WHITMAN

One day last winter. with the
temperature at zero and the wind
bowling, a neighbor asked me what
to do about a room on the exposed
side of his house that was too cold
to use. I said that one trouble was
the leaking in of outdoor air
around the window sash.
He thought the sashes we're toe
tightly fitted for that, and felt that
he proved it by showing me there
was no loosenesS.
But I took a yard-long piece Of
thread and pinned it by one end so
that it hung in the angle between
one side of sash and the frame
If he had been right the thread
would have hung motionless. But
it did not. 1t was in a continual
futter.
With cold air leaking in around
all the windows Of the room-three
of them-it was no wonder that the
room was cold, that the radiator
could not deliver enough heat TO
warm the outside air as fast as it
was coming in.
One part of the remedy is in
weather stripping and the rest in
a storm sash. Any of the weather
strips on the market will make
window joints tight, when new and
if carefully put on.
Applying these is a job for pro-
fessional. because Of the special
tools that are needed and the va
rious forms Of stripping that must
be used for different parts Of
windows and doors.
Good metal weather strips should
make a saving Of from Is to 20 per
cent in the fuel bill. With storm
sash added. the saving should run
up to 80 per cent.
