In their minority committee report,
Maverick and Kvale said it really was

called the Stain Hitler BILL and that
it would use "a 12-inch gun to kill a

.LINDBERCH CASE RAISED NATION
 TO ENACT LAWS
Department of Justic e Given Chance to Smash
 Kidnap Rings

Washington, Feb 14.-UP)-- The Lindbergh Kidnapping was n bl0w--and a boon--tO the depart ment of justice.
 The blow was wave of kid- napings. The boon was that con- gross passed the "Lindbergh law" which gave tho government broad Jurisdiction in the fight against kidnapings and has resulted to date in solution of 31 cases.
 The child of the Lindberghs' was stolen March l, 1882. On June 22 of the same year an aroused congress made kidnapping a federal offense, when 1t involved use of the mails, or transportation of the victim across state lines.
 Since then the division of inves- tigatton, department of justice, has participated in the solutions of 2l kidnapings. To quote j.. Edgar Hoover, chief of the division:
 "All of the 31 cases have been solved.
 "seSenty-four persons have been convicted and 22 are now in custody awaiting trial. Seventy four persons have received sen- tcHCeb LOluhUb ltIoO yeuISp hA months and two days; 16 life sem tences, two death sentences, 50 years suspended sentences and 20 years probation: two individuals were lynched while awaiting trial, were murdered by their compan- decreasing in number"
 GnI t,Hn atVgnantad ktdnn nnra still are at large. One is Thomas who masuuerades as woman and who Is accused of Kidnapping Mrs Berry V. Stoll in Louisville, Ky. The other is Alvin Karpis, Okla home fugitive sought as Q partici- pant in the Kidnapping of Edward c. Bremen, Minneapolis brewer and banker.
 All of Robinson's associates have been arrested. Most of Kar- Dis accomplices are dead, shot by federal agents. The rest, led by Arthur (Doc) Barker, are behind bars, awaiting trial.
 The Lindbergh law provides the death penalty in aggravated cases of kidnapping and in others "im- prisonment for such terms of years us the court. in its discretion, shall determine"
 Kidnapers who use the mails for transmission of ransom notes and the like may be prosecuted auto matically under the federal law. Those who transport their victims across state lines also come under Jurisdiction Of the law.
 The act provides that in the ab. sence of the return of the person kidnapped during three day per- iod, the presumption arises that the victim has been transported "in interstate or foreign com merce."
 Because of tho prominence of the Lindberghs, the manner in which their baby was kidnapped, and the tragic. outcome, the case presented . challenge of national importance to the forces of law and order.
 When it became apparent that no immediate solution was forth coming. crime seemed to booma

 Thursday. Feb. 7-Twenty y-seyenth Day.
 Eleven defense witnesses ap- pear, three of them supporting Hauptmann's Fisch explanation. Three New Jersey residents dls- pute the credibillty of Willard Whited, logger, who testified for tho state that he saw Hauptman m lurking near the Lindbergh estate at about the time of the kidna ping. Charles J. De Bisschop, lumber man, testified that the board found in Hauptmann's attic and q similar piece from the ladder dld not match.
 Friday, Feb. 8-Twenty- Eighth Day
 The defense rests after present. ing more testimony of wood ex- pcrts to show the ladder did not come from Hauptmann's attic and after calling a witness who test. flies he saw'a man other than Hauptmann with the ladder in C car near Princeton, N. J., March ], 1892. The state began rebuttai, calling witnesses--ihcluding MT and Mrs Henry Jung---to show Fisch could not have beon involved in the Kidnapping. Jung said Fisch spend the kidnap evening at his home. Miss Hannah Fisch, sister of Isidor, who came hero from Germany, testified her brother ar- rived home shortly before his death with only $500.
 Tho trial. after 2S days of the ac:ual taking of testimony from witnesses, reached 6 climax on of oratory in which the prosecu- ton and defense presented their most powerful pleas for and against the stolid German. The orations opened with a calm. factual presentation by Anthony M. Hauck, prosecutor of pleas of Hun. terdon county. fin which he sum- med up the state's evidence, and cpntended that the state had proved Hauptmann's guilt conclusiveiy, not merely beyond a reasonable doubt"
 The tempo and tense atmosphere then increased with the summing up by Edward J. Reilly. the Brooklyn bull" chief defense counsel.
 Despite his bulk, he gave the appearance of quick movement and fire, occasionally pounding his fist or shaking his finger. but avoid ing over-stressed oratory and rhetorical flights.
 Reilly argued that direct evi- dence linking Hauptmanp with the Kidnapping and murder had not been introduced. and the purely oircumstantial evidence of the state was not beyond a reasonable doubt" or sufficient to send q man to death.
 Reilly declared a gang had com mitted the crime, abetted by dis loyal servants of the Lindberghs. He accused Betty Cow, nurse of the child. of giving the signal to the kidnapers that the coast was clear. He also involved Violet Sharpe, housemaid for Mrs Dwight W. Morrow. who committed sui- eide, and Oliver Whhteley. the Lindbergh butler, since dead.
