learned to strut little. For to his
family he was really tremendous
fellow, learned, worldly wise, with
something godlike in his omni-
potence.
Life held then a pleasant leisure
ness. Fathers had time TO hold lit
tie daughters on their laps while
they repeated the beloved immemor-
ial fairy tales; they had time to play
with their sons, to teach them how
to face life.
In many respects the modern man
is a much less fortunate creature.
Having built himself a wonderful,
brilliantly lighted. skyscrapered
world, he finds he can have every
thing except a home and time TO

that Lupica had as good an oppor.
tunity to see and was at least as well
qualified to identify and remember
the man he saw as any Of the State
witnesses who are sure they saw
Hauptmann near the scene Of the
crime on or before March /, 1882.
So sure is Mr.. WilentZ Of his posi-.
ton that he announced that there
had not so far been one of the de-
fense witnesses of whom he could not
dispose. He has checked up on seven
or eight "phoneys" whom Reilly may
produce during the week, and does
not believe that he will call even the
Fisch family in rebuttal, which gives
them a pleasant and rather futile
round "trip to America and back at
the expense Of the State.
WiIentz Life Unaffected.
Mr.. Wilentz says that he is no more
wrought-up over this case than any
other, and that his habits Of life
have remained normal in this abb
normal affair, although he has to
spend most of lfv nights at Trenton
instead Of in his home at Perth
Amboy. He goes home on Saturday
nights only, but not Immediately to
bed as might be expected Of one who
has flung his whole vast energy into
such a case. After all, Mrs. Wilentz
doesn't see much of him any more, so
like any small-town citizen, returning
home after a weeks dull work behind
desk or counter, he takes his wife out
on Saturday night.
He says that he is always high
strung out of court when working on a
case, but usually collected when he
gets going in court And he says that
conviction or no conviction, he is 60
ing to Florida when this business is
over and done with.
Just a few more "phoneys" to dis
/ pose of and you can picture Wilentz
serenely basking in the rays of the
Florida sun and the even more stim-
ulating limelight Of world celebrity.

NUMBERS GAME
D0NS NEW GARb
Treasury Figures and Mails
Used in Latest Gaming
Scheme.

Lieut.. George Little, chief Of the
special Investigations squad, instructed
his men today to take the trail of a
syndicate operator operating a num-
bers game here on the pattern Of
high-class investment house.
Laying aside the tin-horn methot :
of the old-fashioned numbers oper-
ator, who collected nickels, pennies,
and dimes from his clients, the latest
entry in the gambling lists here has
set up q mailing svst"--.. whereby
clients are ed....scu OF winnings and
losings vn a weekly basis.
Instead of race track numbers
totals of the first three races at any
given track-the new operation en-
tails figures from the Treasury De-
partment.
Enticing Illustrations Given.
Lieut.. Little was advised of this
new form of the numbers game Sat-
urday after several of his friends had
received letters from the numbers
syndicate.
In an effort to drum up business
the new syndicate mailed THE En-
pire Treasury Card" to prospects
The card shows what might have
been won had certain numbers been
played. The numbers shown are fol-
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thurs
day and Friday of last week. They
are 7O,335, 81, 1853, 67,522 and 83,937
All these figures were taken from the
Treasury balance. A 50-cent ticket
on Mondays number, 70,335, would
have returned $1,100-so the state.
ment AYERS A 25-cent ticket on the
same number would have brought
back $500.
Consolation Prizes Offered.
As an extra, added "come-on," the
syndicate promises consolation prizes
Thus, if a person held one number
above 70,335-70,336-he would havl
received s100. The same amount il
posted for the number under 70,335
or 7o,334.
Nicely printed and accurately tabu'
lated, the new form sheets" are
mailed to customers and prospective
customers. It is believed that thu
postal authorities will be called int
the case, though Lieut.. Little think
it will be difficult to get convic.
ton under these laws, since it mus
be specifically proved that the mail:
are being used to defraud.
''It just makes a little more worE
for u.s." Lieut.. Little said today.

NEW DEAL SCORES
TOWNSEND'SPLAN
Head of Presidents Group
Says 1t Might Bring
Initiation.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The administration smashed vigor-
ously today at the Townsend $200-a-
month old-age pension plan, telling a
house committee that it would "stor
all business" and probably bring
Wholesale imitation"
A statement to that effect was sub
mitted to the Ways and Means Com
mittee by Dr. Edwin E. Witte, execu-
tive director Of the Presidents COM
mittee on economic security. It fol-
lowed by only a few days authorita-
tive word that the President had no
intention Of permitting an increase
In the SIS a month limit on the Fed
eral Governments share Of old-age
pensions provided in the administra-
ton social security bill.
Recalls Business Tax.
Whites statement was received as
DR.. F.. e. Townsend, author of the
5000 plan, appeared before the House
committee for croSs-examination.
Recalling that the Townsend plan
calls for 2 per cent tax on all busi-
ness transactions, DR.. Witte told the
committee:
IF there does not result from this
plan a very great increase in incomes
and in the money value of transac-
tions. the promised pension cannot
possibly be paid for any length OF
time without wholesale imitation"
Says Tax Inadequate.
Besides that, he added, the tax
would have to be per cent to supply
the $4,000, 100000 a year he esti-
mated would be necessary to take care
of 100000 persons over so.
"The imitation and duplicate taxa
ton involved in the plan," Witte con-
tinued, will cause prices to soar,
and soon, even with 5000 per month
the pensionioners will not be better
off than they were before. while those
below 60 will be immeaSurably worse
of. The Townsend plan is one which
arouses great hopes, but actually will
give the old people little or nothing

to bring to the teachers the latest
methods for prevention of water ac-
cidents and what to do when they
occur, Carr said.
Through the annual roll call, the
Red Cross brings these courses of in
struction to the teachers without ad-
ditional charge. Members of the life
saving staff visit every State each
year, covering the important swim
ming centers at least every two years

not reviewed during the past two
years, and for senior life savers. who
wish to become examiners, will be

rejected scores Of competent witnesses
because they merely duplicated the
tales Of others who could make a
stronger impression on the Jury by
telling the same story better. Others
he left out because what they thought
they had to tell was inconsistent
with the testimony Of witnesses vital
to the case.
To select his witnesses so as to avoid
confusing the jury with tnconsist-
encies and contradictions Is a part OF
the technique Of good prosecutor.
OF the many people who were re-
jected from the pattern Of his case
there were some whose testimony Gid
not stand up as reasonably convinc-
ing, some who were obviously mott
waited by eagerness for the spotlight
and some, who, Wilentz says, were just
plain crazy"
II Is amusing to note that Reilly
has picked up a number Of rejects
from the States case. Lou Harding
the ljorth Carolina roustabout, offered
his evidence first to the State, ano
after hearing his Jail record, 1t is not
surprising that little credence was
given to his tale. He 'thereupor
promptly became rather unpalatable
grist for Reilly's mill.
Peter Sommer, the private detective
who says he saw Isador Fisch and Vic.
let Sharpe with baby on the night
of the kidnapping. went to the police
with his story before he ended in Mr.
Reilly's camp.
A higher type witness, who was left
out of Wilentz's case and comes IL
today as a defense witness, is tht
Princeton student, Ben Lupica. vii
entz rejected Lupia for the verI
good reason that he could not bt
certain the man he saw driving cal
with a ladder toward Hopewell the
day of the kidnapping was Hauptlnenn
though he was prepared to testify tt
q strong resemblance.
Perhaps Mr.. Reilly expects to show
