had enemies who might have com mitted the crime through hatred.
 In the early questions, too, the defense revealed another part of it's strategy--the strategy that will attack the New Jersey state police as "bungIers'', to show the im- precision in public minds that part of the case against Hauptmann is manufactured.
 Reilly's first attack on the police was softly turned away by Colonel Lindbergh's declaration that he thought they were pretty good" A murrnur and batter of applause startled the courtroom upon that statement.
 Reilly, horid and massive, lost no time In opening up with some of the maneuvers which have marked his legal career.
 Rising to face Lindbergh at the conclusion of direct examination, the defense counsel asked if tho flyer was a state police officer and, receiving negative reply, asked if he were armed.
 He Was Not Armed
 T am not armed" he said.

 Continuing his probing into the c0lonels story of events in the HopeweIl manor on the night of the Kidnapping, Reilly's questions were intended to leave an unmis- takable impression that someone from within the household--a ser- want, perhaps--could have partici- pated in the Kidnapping.
 His questions were directed to the possibility that Betty Cow, the scottish nursemaid who had tend. ed the baby since his birth, or ,perhaps Ollie Whately, the suave English butler who is now dead. might have known more about the Kidnapping than has been revealed.
 Col Lindbergh met this attack with flushed face, and his an- swers to the Brooklyn criminal lawyers questions became sharper, snapped out through almost closed lips.
 Reilly's cross examination con tinued to outline vaguely the de- fense plan of shifting blame for the crime to unidentified persons connected with the Lindbergh household.
 While the co1oners answers be- came sharper, the counsel dis cussed the characters and wherea- bouts of the late Oliver Whately, butler; Betty Cow, nursemald; Violet Sharpe, maid at the Mor- row home who committed suicide; and a. chauffeur named Ellinson who worked for Che Morrows. He emphasized that Eliinson was Of foreign extraction and was ac- dualnted with the Lindbergh es- tate.
 Defense Sensation
 And ten minutes after Col Lind- bereh had made his positive de- claration, a new sensation was pro vi6ed by the defense forces, who lara,clred an attack upon his testi- mony with the inference that members of Lindbergh's own household might have committed
 Col Lindbergh,s Identification of Hauptmann, coming near the close of his recital of the complete story of the shocking crime, provided the climax for which the crowded Hunterdon county courthouse and the outside world-had been waiting.

 ",rhe voice was the voice oI Hauptmann," he said.
 The Identification, with which Attorney General David T. WilentZ practically closed Lindberghs di- rect examination left the court room bustling with excitement. Be- fore the audience had recovered. the colonel had been turned over to the vigorous chief defense coun- sel. Edward J. Reilly of Brooklyn, who immediately began to attacK his story from every angle.
 By the noon recess, the prosecu. ton had revealed some of the most vital parts of It's case, and the de- fense had begun g counter move ment designed to show that other persons than Bruno Hauptmann could have--and did--kidnap anu murder the 20-month-o old infant.
 Insistently and at times with tone that brought angry respohses from the colonel, Reilly bored into the details of Lindbergh's recital. Point by point he went over with him the eart-breaking days at Honeywell after the crime, and ev- ery movement, every action. every memory of those days.
 Reilly revealed strange coun- ter-theory to the states charge a1ainst his client. By inference, through his questions, he sought to show that members of the Lind. hergh establishment at HopeWeii were not above suspicion and that inc police had not investigated their actions sufficiently to absolve them. The two were Betty Cow. the bnby's nursemaid. and Oliver Whately. now dead, the Liho- berghs' butler.
 And by every response he made, Col Lindbergh showed his 1aitn n hia servants and his utter beiieI that any connection between theH and the crime was unthinkaple'
