The suggestion came from c.
Lloyd Fisher, associate defense
counsel, during his cross -examina-
ton of Wilson, the truck driver.
Trend Is Surprise.
Mr.. Fishers suggestion came as a
surprise. for the defense had said it
would not question Col Lindbergh' S
Identification Of his own son.
But after Wilson had described
the dramatic finding of the body,
the Pennington attorney asked him
abruptly:
In what county was the body
found-is that not near St. Mich
sels Orphanage-dO you not know
that there we're children ok vary
ing ages in that OTphanage?
Those facts were admitted. Thus,
obliquely, the defense succeeded in
instilling the insinuation in the
minds of the jury. whether or not
It presses the suggestion, that Col.
Lindbergh was mistaken when he
accepted the body as that of his
baby.
Hair Proves Identity
The prosecution counsel imme-
diately laid the groundwork for
smashing down any further defense
move to plant the thought of mis-
taken identity in the minds of the
four women and eight men who are
to determine Hauptmanns guilt or
innocence.
A simple question, asked of Sergt.
Zapolsky, a police officer who as
sisted in removing the body from
the grave, was the states first chal-
lenge.
Was there any hair on the child's
head?" he was asked.
He replied that there was. And
If the defense persists in its amaz-
ing theory, the Government is ready
TO prove, by chemical analysis, that
the pitiful strands of hair recovered
were once the curling locks of
Charles A. Lindbergh Jr.
Explains Hole in Skull
A hitherto unrevealed fact con-
corning the condition of the body
when it was taken down the noun
tainside. became known when In
Spector Harry Walsh, of the Jersey
City police disclosed that one, at
least, of the smaller holes in the
skull was made by stick.
The inspector had used stick to
raise the body. The stick penetrat-
ed the fragile skull, leaving an aper-
ture about the size of a lead pen
Gil" This hole was one of the
puzzling mysteries of the case.
Examiners had believed it was
made by small caliber bullet. So
Inspector Walsh fastened to clear
up that angle. He wanted to leave
no vague impressions upon which
the defense might seize to add to
the other complexities of the case.
Mr.. Walsh also strengthened the

Dictionaries Are Found
The state announced that Haupt-

nouncing dictionary. Hauptmann
used these to spell all the hard"
words that occurred in the ransom
notes, the state charged Many of
the words in the dictionaries were

The dictionaries may be intro

State Case Outlined

In the II days of testimony so
far. the state has proved to its own
satisfaction these points:
l. That the kidnapping and murder
of Charles A. Lindberhg Jr. was
committed by one man, and oy one
man only.
3 That the eXtortion of $4,000
from Col. Charles A. Lindbergh was
committed by one man, and by one
man only.
3. That the man who committed
both the crime and the eXtortion
was Bruno Richard Hauptmann. as
shown by the following evidence:
A. That the white-faced defend
ant was present within the en-
virons of Hopeweil on or about the
day of the kidnapping, as proved by
Amandus Hochmuth, the octcgena-
rian who swore he saw him near the

B. That the voice of the prisoner
was the same voice that called to

JOHN HAYS HAMMOND
TELLS LIFE STORY

With the same temperate
thoroughness which characterized
his activities in the mining field,
John Hays Hammond has diVulged
the details Of his life.
In two volumes, the interna-
tionally known intimate Of the
leaders of the world for the past
several decades, simply and grace
fully tells of his rise to the
eminent position he now holds
even in retirement.
Here will be sketched the
ground covered in his first
volume. A subsequent article
will deal with the episodes re-
counted in the second.
Mr.. Hammond's style follows
closely the manner he assumes
in interview. With an easy flow
ing tone that contrives to cover
major events with rich detail and
not be tiresome, he rattles off
incidents of contact with other
men whose names conjure up
stories Of greatness that would
cover many pages Of history in
themselves II the narrator tarrled
too long on side trails.
Charm and Interest
An instance of the charm can
be expressed in the story he tells
of the first time he sought q job
After being turned down by a
friend Of his family he went tc
Mr.. George Hearst. Mr.. Hearst
he says, cheerfully declined even
to consider him. He asked for an
explanation.
Mr.. Hearst told him that 1t was
because he was a graduate OF
Freiburg where among other
things he had been learning "big
names for little rocks" and that
didn't go in this country. Mr.
Hammond pressed him as to
whether he had any other objec
tons. The answer was mo-
Then, insisted Mr.. Hammond
"I'h make . confession II you
won't tell my father" And con-
tinued:
II didn't learn anything Of
Importance at Freiburg."
He got the job.
From then on the mining ex
pert carries you through his ex
periences in the Western pioneer
days, in South America, Mexico
and then to diamond mining in
Africa.

The artists are the Hungarian
sisters, Bertha and Elena de Helle'

Exhibit by Artist Sisters
Embassies Contrasts

the arrangement OF the paintings,
the approach Of the individual
artists to their subjects and the
technique while working under
similar conditions make the en-
tire exhibition interesting.
Both women have painted por'
traits of Ellis Majesty, Leopold
III, King Of the Belgians." The
difference in these two portraits
is essentially the difference be.
tween the two women as artists.
The portrait by Miss Bertha
de Hellebranth is studied, shaded
with the facial expression Of ellis
Majesty" carrying the weight Of
the picture.
Similar Contrast
On the other hand, Miss Elena's
portrait Of the young Belgian
king is done with a bold brush,
with the upright military bearing
Of the subject predominant in the
painting.
There is similar contrast in the
sisters paintings Of a dancer.
Bertha's has the more definite
outline, with great deal Of de-
tail in the facial expression,
whereas the other sisters dancer
portrays the action Of the dancers
body.
The sisters are at their best in
portrait painting. Their land
scapes and still iifes are q little
rough and crude, though very
colorful.
Showing their taste for the
brilliant colorS worn by the Hun
garian peasants, both artists have
painted "Kati Praying" pictures
of a peasant girl wearing color"
full costume and kneeling IN
prayer.
