Carpenter Called

Ewald Mielke, IS, a gray-haired,
gray-mustached man from Linden
hurst, N. Y, next took the stand.
He testified he owns his own
small lumber mill and is a pattern
maker, planer, joiner and carpen-
ter.
There was considerable argu-
ment over his qualifications as an
expert in wood"
The witness finally was permit.
ted to testify, but he proceeded to
backfire on the defense counsel
when he admitted he could not
pass an opinion as to whether the
board from Hauptmann'S attic
once was part of "rail 16" Of the
kidnap ladder.
Mr.. Mielke said, however, that
"as an observer" he had found
there are more knots in North
Carolina pine near the butt Of
the trees than at the top.
The Washington times., 1935-02-08

Mr.. Pope asked Mr.. Bolmer to
describe the man as best he
could and the witness said:
"I'm poor at describing. He
looked like a picture"
Attorney General David T.
Wilentz was on his feet with an
objection. He was overruled.
Q.-Pope)-How many times
did you see this man? A.-Three
or four times.
Q.-Go ahead and describe
him. Ale was about 5 feet 10
or 11.my height-and his face
was thin. His hair was dark
and he had a smooth face, no
mustache. He weighed 1872 pounds
no, about 1876 or 40 pounds.
Mr.. Bolmer was asked if he had
seen any pictures that he recog.
nized as the man he saw, and he
replied, Eyes"
He was shown a picture of the
late 1sador Fisch, the man Haupt
mann says left ransom money in
his Safekeeping without telling
him it was that. Mr.. Bolmer said: :
This is not the man."
Q.-How much opportunity did
you have to look at the lady? A
looked at her once.
The Washington times., 1935-02-08
Boards Studied

Mr.. Wilentz took the boards over
to the jurors and had them look
them over carefully. The attorney
general had pencil in his hand
as he was doing this, and Mr..
Pope called out:
''Don't draw any lines on
those boards"
Mr.. Wilentz assured him he
would not.
BY producing the matched wood
the defense was trying to create
the impression it would be easy
to find a board to match rail 16''
of the kidnap ladder. This would
destrow the credibility of the
States ace witness, Arthur Koch
Ter, that he traced rail is" right
to Hauptman's attic.
Finally, Mr.. Wilentz said:
"That's ALL"
Then Mr.. Pope arose and
handed the witness a nail. Mr..
de Bischop identified it as a
floor nail different from one Mr..
Wilentz had shown the witness.
The defense lawyer had the nail
introduced as evidence.
The Washington times., 1935-02-08
NAVAL RECORD
Of DR.. HUDSON
SCRUT|N|ZED

Nothing significant" is to be
found in the naval record Of Dr.
AraStus M. Hudson, who testified
today for the defense as an anna
teur fingerprint expert in the
trial of Bruno Richard Haupt
mann for the kidnapping of the
Lindbergh baby. Navy officials
said today.
They denied that any request
had reached them from Prose
cutor Wilentz or other New Jer
sey officials for a copy Of the
record, but acknowledged that
the Department of Justice, which
is cooperating with the New
Jersey authorities, had asked
whether there were anything
significant" in his IosSier.
DR.. Hudson served as a lieu.
tenant in the Medical Corps Of
the Navy during the World War,
attached to the Leviathan, then
in transport service.
According to the Navy Reg
lister, DR.. Hudson was appointed
to the Medical Corps from New
York city on July 10, 1917, and
resigned March II, 1921, after
having served at various hospi.
tails along the Eastern seaboard
in addition to his duty on the
Leviathan.

CrOsS-Eram1ined

Attorney General Wilentz cross
examined Mr.. de BiSschop. The
jury watched both men with in
terest.
Q.-(Wilentz)-You say this
board was never nailed to a
joiSt? A.-No evidence Of it hav.
ing been taken up.
Q.-You want to carry to this
jury the impression that this attic
board was never nailed down to
the joiSt? A.-No sir.
Q.-So you won't say it wasn't
nailed down? A.-No.
Q.-So far as you know 1t might
have been nailed down? Alt
might have been.
Q.-You said yesterday that in
the attic board and the rail there
were siX-penny cut nails and eight.
penny cut nails? Ayes.
The witness was shown a six
penny and an eight-penny nail. He
identified them as correct, and
they we're admitted in evidence.
Showing the witness the eight
penny nail, Mr.. Wilentz asked

The Washington times., 1935-02-08
De BisschOp Back

Charles de Bisschop, of Water
bury, Conn, who testified that in
his opinion "rail number 16" of
the kidnaper's ladder and an
attic board from Hauptmann's
home never had been part of the
same piece of lumber, resumed
the stand as the first witness
today.
Mr.. de Bisschop had his wood
samples and his battered brown
satchel with him when he took
the stand. He was wearing a
broad smile. He had made a
good witness yesterday afternoon.
He had failed to qualify as a
wood expert but was allowed to
give his opinion as a practical
lumberman. He is a building con-
tractor and nursery man.
There was a delay as Mr.. de
Bisschop took his place on the
stand. 1t seemed for a few min
utes that his examination would
have to be postponed because of
the absence of Mr.. Pope, the
wood expert Of the defense law
yers, but Mr.. Pope came walking
into the court room bearing a
small tree with him.
Meanwhile, Gen. John F.
Organ, former New York police
commissioner who Is expected to

Ladder on Side

Q.-You saw Ford with a lad
der attached to the side of it:
And a man and a woman in the
car? Ayes.
Mr.. Wilentz again demanded tc
know why the surprising witness
had not told the police his story
He replied:
81 never saw the real ladder,
so 1 didn't want to make a fool
Of myself. From all the things
I had read Of the ladder,
thought it would be q big one.
This one on the car was small
and tneSted' there"
The kidnap ladder is small, al
most delicate, and folds together
in its three sections snugly.
That's ALL" said Mr.. WilentZ,
and Mr., Bolmer was excused.

Mr.. Pope pointed to the board

The next witness was Breevort
Bolmer, New Jersey filling sta
ton proprietor, who told Of see.
ing a car near the filling station
the morning of the kidnapping
and said the kidnap ladder was
on the outside of the car.
Whatever drama is yet to be
staged in the Hauptmann trial
probably will not come until the
jury files in with the fateful yer
dict of guilty or mot guilty"
Rebuttal testimony, the Summa
tions by the lawyers for both sides
the judges charge to the jury
and then the verdict. That's the
program just ahead. Best guesses
are the case will be in the jury''
hands by next Tuesday.
One of the big disappointments
has been the failure of Mr.. Reilly,
VI UI4C OC4C1loC, w 41dIIlG lIlC
actual kidnapers" of the baby
Some weeks ago Mr.. Reilly in
an interview in Brooklyn an.
nounced he would name on
Thursday "at least two men and
two women" who took part in
the kidnapping. Thursday rolled
around and nothing came of the
promise. Mr.. Reilly smilingly
told reporters he did not say
what Thursday. Yesterday was
his final chance-the deadline
ThurSday-and he failed to come
up with the names.
It has been a peculiar case,
this Hauptmann trial. The State
put on few strange witnesses
but the defense topped them
