DETERMINATION OF the tariff
Il concessions now enjoyed by
Germany in trade relations with
the United States will become ef-
fective Oct. Is. the State Depart
ment has informed the Reich. Two
distinct developments We're held
responsible for the action.
They are, first. Germany'S per
siStent and fragrant discrimination
against American products ana
against American holders Of Ger
man bonds and securities.
Second. Germany's inSiStence
that the most favored-nation
clause in the German-American
commercial treaty be abrogated.
The NaH government served
notice on the United States last
October that she was terminating
the most characterization clause on
one years written notice as pro-
vided under the treaty. SubSe-
ouentlv a new commercial treaty
was negotiated with Germany with
the most favored nation stipulation
omitted. AS a result. Germany is
no longer entitled TO the general
tariff reductions provided under the
reciprocal trade arrangements.

Immediate problems facing the

for a modified lease covering APP

mains had been leased to the Citi-

Today brought Hauptmann and the
Lindberghs together under the same
roof for the first time-or for the first
time in nearly three years. Today
Mrs. Lindbergh saw for the first time
the man whom she must believe muir
dered her little boy. AS he came to
his seat after the noon recess, ne had
to pass so close to her that she could
have put out her hand and touched
him. No word was said. No gesture
was made. The leading figures OF this
tragedy were assembled within a small
rallied space and nothing happened.
It is of the very essence Of the drama
of this case that nothing happened.
Doubts Wilentz Statement.
Mr.. Wilentz, the lawyer from Perth
Amboy, who, as attorney general OF
the State, is conducting this prosecu-
ton. made the opening address to the
Jury. He is quiet, personable ana
Levantine of aspect, and his speech
was able, discreet and effective. But
in it he said one thing Of which
doubt the truth.
In his eagerness to suggest that the
murder of the Lindbergh baby was
a crime dictated by greed. he said:
This fellow had nothing against
Charles Lindbergh." When at long
last the full story Of this monstrous
crime becomes a matter of record, as
may well happen before this year has
run it's course, I think 1t Will be
shown that that Hopewe1 nursery
was rtfled by one who hated the
worlds hero with all the insane jeal-
ousy Of which an egomaniac is ca
pable. This was no such RANDOM
blow as was struck in the Leopold
Loeb case, and in that lies the only
essential difference between the two
crimes. Otherwise, they march side
by side.
Jury Proves Surprise.
Those prophets who had filled the
air with sagacious predictions that it
would take weeks to select a jury
were thrown into confusion when, less
than an hour after the court was
called to order this morning, a gray
haired, unemployed bookkeeper and q
little, gnarled, weather-beaten old
carpenter were mysteriously found
acceptable to counsel on both SIDES.
Thus was the jury box filled on the
morning of the second day.
In advance it had seemed reason
able to fear it might be necessary to
draft the entire citizenry of Hunter
don County in the quest for - adults
who had neither discussed the case
nor formed any opinion about 1t.

Col. Lindbergh squared his shoulders
as he prepared for Defense Counsel
Reilly's first questions of cress-ex-
animation.
There appeared scant possibility
Evening star., 1935-01-04

that Betty Cow, the dark Scotch
nurse Of the slain child, would testify
today. She was to have followed Mrs.
Lindbergh on the stand yesterday, but
she was so distraught after hearing
her mistress testimony that she was
unable to take the stand.
Reilly declined to cross-examine
Mrs. Lindbergh. telling the court:
"The defense feels that the grief
Of Mrs. Lindbergh requires no cross
examination"
Later, he said, "as q witness she
told splendid. sympathetic story. But
it was not evidentiary. AS a woman,
she is most charming aid admirable. :"
When she stepped down from the
stand and the State deemed Miss Cow
too shaken to follow her, Lindbergh
was sworn out of turn.

her If that was the shirt.
She touched it, nodded, said Eyes"
There was an audible quickening OF
breath among the spectators, but Mrs.
Lindbergh never flinched.
The shirt was offered In evidence.
Other garments followed-a small,
sleeveless wool shirt, cut low in front
and back; the sleeping suit and the
thumbguard. The suit was clean.
Before it was sent to the Lindberghs
by the kidnaper it had been washed.
When she came to the thumbguard,
a wire device designed to stop the
habit of thumb-sucking, she explained
how it had been fastened with tape
around the wrist Of the baby. She
encircled her left wrist with her
fingers to show more graphically just
how the guard was attached to the
wrist on the outside Of the suit so
1t would not cut his wrists"
Wilentz then elected the facts about
Col. Lindberghs arrival from New
York, about their dinner together and
Mrs. Lindbergh's preparations to re-
tire.

was after 10 o'clock, shortly after 10

TENSE STORY TOLD
BYMRS.L|NDBERGH.
Relates How She Played
With Child During Minutes
Before KIDNAPPING.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PENNINGTON, N. j.. January A.
For As dramatic minutes here yester-
day, Anne Morrow Lindbergh, the
slight, brown-haired mother, related
what she knew of the day and night
of March 1, 1882, when baby Charles
Augustus Lindbergh was stolen from
the Sourland Mountains home Of his
parents.
Once her eyes cleaned as though
with tears, but she did not lose her
composure as, in low, clear tones, she
said simply:
"I looked hastily at the bed-and
found it to be empty"
Mrs. Lindbergh, pale and dressed
simply in black, faced Hauptmann.
but did not look at him as the pris-
oner shifted occasionally in his chair.
The defense did not croSS-examlne
her.
Smiles Occasionally.
What mental anguish she conceiv-
ably was enduring she concealed. In
her manner at times was just trace
OF restraint. SIle SlIlllcu, OSSuolO1l-
ally bit her lower lip, and for the most
part sat erect in the old wooden chair,
her legs crossed, her elbows resting
on the arms. her hands lying in her
lap.
She described her son, speaking In
tender tones. She looked at an en-
larged photograph of him. showing
him with blond, curly hair, looking up
in baby surprise.
She identified photographs OF the
nursery at the Hopewell house, OF the
crib and other furnishings, and de-
scribed them in answer to questions.
And even when Attorney General
David T. Wilentz, proceeding in his
questioning with the utmost care,
showed her the baby's sleeping suit,
his thumbguard, his tiny shirt MADE
of flannel to protect his chest against
the cold. and a second shirt he wore,
she kept herself in check.

had spent the last few months in the
kind of withdrawal from this world

Thibet. But as 1t worked out, nearly
every member of the panel seemed
eager to serve on the jury and was
unblushingly willing to put his or her
hand on the court Bible and blandly
deny ever having given the case a
thought. Thus in our time in New
Jersey is justice served quickly-if
