While awaiting trial Noodle would be
suspended from office with Lieuten-

must first vote to receive the articles
before suspension takes place.
This is just about the rawest thing
that could happen in this house."

Frank said there was also one small

Edward ]. Reilly, chief Of the de-
tense staff. brought out in cross
examination that Hauptmann and his
wife deposited total Of $l2,830.28 in

Hauptmann appeared to be the
most alert listener In the courtroom
as Frank gave his testimony. He
kept financial statement In his lap
and scrutinized 1t as he followed each
question and answer.
The defense attorney fairly thun-
dered when he asked Frank II one Of
Hauptmann's bank accounts, opened
three months after the kidnapping in
Mt. Vernon, N. Y, had not started
with the large sum Of $5250?"

His chief counsel, Edward J. Reilly,
gave Hauptmann copies Of his own
accounts to study and coached him
about the questions, both friendly and

Reilly asserted that attempts have

DOC bankers INDICTMENT
ASKED OF ST. PAUL JURY

st. Paul, Jan. 2l.-(P)-A federal
grand jury Monday will be asked by
U. S. District Attorney George Sulli-
van to issue indictments charging
Arthur (Doc) Barker, held in Jail here,
with the actual KIDNAPPING and con-
spiracy to kidnap Edward q. Bremen,
st. Paul banker who was abducted q
year ago.
AS the government moved to clarity
previous indictments against Barker,
1t was reported that Bremen had iden-
titled the house in which he was held
captive in Bensenville, Chicago SUBJ
burb.
It was also reported st. Paul police
late Sunday night had made prepara-
tons to watch for Alvin Karpis. also
wanted for the kidnapping. who Sun
day shot his way out OF an Atlantic
City hotel. The police watch was laid
after police were advised Dolores De-
laney, captured in the Atlantic City
fight, had maintained flat here
during the past few years.
Bremen refused to comment on the
reports he had identified the hideout
where he was kept prisoner for % days,
but 1t was learned he had accompan-
led federal agents to Bensenville.
Following his release last February
it was recalled the st. Paul banker
had said he could identify the wall
paper in the house. Discovery OF the
hideout was expected to change the
governments case against Barker, now
held here in default Of 100000 bonds
on an indictment charging conspiracy
to kidnap.
It was explained the gangster could
be prosecuted under the Lindbergh
law which makes possible death SEN
tence for kidnapers who cross state
lines with their victims. District At
torney Sullivan declined to discuss this
report.
Indictments also were to be sought
against other persons whose names
have been drawn into the kidnapping
plot.
Captured in Chicago. January 8, the

VECETABLE GROUP
 FILE RESOLUTION
Protest Agricultural Plan to Place Growers Under
 Control Legislation

Washington, D. C.-The Con- necticut Vegetable Growers Asso. citation has notified Senator Angus tine Lonergan of its opposition to plan outlined at the Agriculture Department here last week to place potato growers under control legis- lation similar to the Kerr-Smith Tobacco Act.
 Harry Didsbury of Thomaston, president of the association, has asked the senator to file Q protest with Senate leaders and depart ment officials, in compliance with q resolution of the association adopted at a statewide meeting held in Hartford. The resolution says:
 tato control bill embodying the principles of the Kerr-Smith To- .bacco Act and providing for com pulsory allotments to growers with penalty tax will not serve the Providing as 1t does, for the regu- lation of the sales of potatoes both interstate and within the states us all growers, 1t will Involve great cost of enforcement of its provi- sions without any prospect that such enforcement Is likely to be successful. The plan is compul- sory in its nature and does not permit Q referendum before 1t is put into effect. As projected at present 1t is the plan of a small group of shipping states without the knowledge or consent of the growers of the deficit states. Even if this proposed law could be en- forced there is no assurance that 1t will be effective in securing bet ter prices to potato growers since allotments are based on produc- tion and not on acreage. For these reasons the potato and vegetable growers of Connecticut hereby TO- ject this measure and suggest that 6 mere equitable and workable control plan be adopted through individual grower allotments if the producers operating under such agreements desire such provisions.
 Resolved, that instead of the proposed compulsory allotment plan there should be substituted q control of interstate shipments of potatoes by marketing agreements and that the Agricultural Adjust ment Act would be amended to make these agreements more ef- fective."
