1t was a younger, brisker man
who walked out of the witness
chair later in the day and placed
his hand on Bruno Hauptmann.
And it did not come as so much
of a surprise, for everybody knew
that Joseph Perrone, a 30-year-
old taxi driver, was going to tes-
tify some time that Hauptmann
gave him a dollar to carry a note
to Condor. What did surprise
everybody was that Perrone's
words stung the prisoner into
snarling back in defiance.
Almost fortnight after the
kidnapping Perrone was in his taxi
cab in the Bronx. Business was
lust fair, and on good weeks he
sometimes made $25. He was the
kind of man who could use a dol
lar bill. ,
So when a man walked up and
asked him if he knew where 2974
De Kalk avenue, the Bronx, was,
he answered yes and hoped it
would be a fare for him.
Instead, he said, the man reach
ed in his pocket and took out a
note. Then he handed Perrone a
dollar bill and told him to deliver
the letter to 2974 De Kelb ave-
nue..
"And what was the name on
the letter." asked Wilentz.
"Dr. John F. Condon," Perrone
replied.

Condon?'

"Now tell us, if you will, who

"Hc is"
"Will you step down from the
stand and point that man out to
US, please?"
Perrone didn't need anyone to
help him from the witness chair.
He strobe quickly across the room
and slapped a hand on Haupt-
mann's shoulder.
"This is the man." Perrone said.
Hauptmann glared into the face
of his accuser and muttered:
you're a liar"
If Perrone heard him, he gave

SCHOOL
REPORT FILED
Leroy Martin Says Posi-
ton Is Bothered in
Many Phases

RALEIGH, Jan. 9.-(UP).-
Leroy Martin, executive secre-
tary of the State School commits,
sion, has filed his report showing
far-reaching improvements affect
ed by the commission during the
past two years.
Martins report showed an in
crease in teacher allotment, saw
ing in transportation mileage and
cost, increase of one month in the
school year, reduction of operat-
ing expenses, and a complete re-
districting of schools.
Plant operation costs showed
the greatest savings, the report
revealed. By engaging a heating
engineer, and conducting a close
check on all items of expenditure,
the commission repeatedly reduced
plant operation costs from ST.
.S31,174 in 1930-31, to $992,636
in 1933-34.
During the first year of state
school control, Martin reported,
Institutional service expense
dropped from the 1928 figure
of $17,555,253.6 to $13,437,-
S94.54; and general control ex-
penditures from $95S,871.18 in
1928 to $572,717.98 in 1888
81.
Current expense in 166 new
supplemental budgets, the COM
mission reported, totaled S2,087,-
745; capital outlay, $2,041, 66S,
and debt service, SIS, S67,144.
In regard to lengthening of the
school year, the commission re-
port stated: ,
"To further indicate the. rapid
progress that has been made by
this state in offering increased
educational facilities through a
heightened school term, it is sig
nifcant to note that in 1929-30,
266,9S5 children attended schools
for a term less than eight months,
while last year only 30,089 were
restricted to less than the stand
ard eight-months term.
when it is considered that this
fve-year period was one of great
retrogression throughout the ma
ton, the progress made by this
state takes on added significance.
It is doubtful if any other state
has made such progress in length
ening the school term in as short
period"

HAUPTMANN'S IRE
is RAISED In COURT

the verdict.
! Few people in Hunterdon coun
ty have ever heard of Amanda:
Hochmuth, and certainly no one
in court was prepared for what
he did yesterday. Hochmuth al,
ready has exhausted his Biblical
allotment of three-score years and
ten and has lived on until he is
81. So he doesn't work any more,
but sits in the sun on the back
porch of his son-in-law's house
down the, road where Featherbed
Lane cuts into the main highway.
! Two miles up Featherbed Lane is
"a house where the Lindberghs
used to live.
Now there was wind blowing on
March 1, 1882, and the air still
held the bite of winter, but old
man Hochmuth bundled himself
up and went out on the back
porch just before noon. Nothing
much attracted his attention, he
said, until a dirty green car came
clipping down the road, 40 miles
an hour. Cars passed all the time
and this one never would have
attracted the attention of old man
Hochmuth except for the fact
that at the entrance of Feather
bed Lane, it slipped off the high
way and went into a ditch.
The driver slammed on his
brakes, Hochmuth said, and the
car stopped. There was no dam
age and soon the dirty green au-
tomobile whizzed on down the
main highway. But old man Hoch-
muth got a good look.
SIS the man who was driving
that automobile in this court
room?" asked Attorney General
David T. Wilentz. eff he is, point
to him."
"There he u.s." Hochmuth said,
lifting a hand that shook from the
ravages of palsy and rheumatism.
"There. he is, sitting right over
there beside that state policeman"
"Come down from the witness
chair" Wilentz suggested, "and
go over to where he sits"
Somebody took hold of the
trembling old fellow and led him
across the room. He doddered past
the table where the prosecution
lawyers sit, and turned to the left
slowly until he was standing in
front of Hauptmann. That shriv-
eled left hand came out and rest
ed on Hauptmann's knee. Their
faces were six inches apart, these
two men who both trace their an
cestry back to the Teutons of
middle Europe in the days when
the world was younger.
"This is the man. Hochmuth
said. "This man Hauptmann.'
Hauptmann looked at the old
man, thrust his head closer to the
white beard and swung his head
sadly from side to side.
Then the prisoner turned to his
wife, three chairs away, and spoke
a quick sentence in German:
der alter list verucht". (The
old man must be crazy.
That is exactly what Haupt-
mann's lawyers leaped to their
feet and tried to prove, as soon as
Hochmuth had returned to the
witness chair.

institution or a hospital?" asked

UP).-In the face of great ca
lamity, disciplined women have
as much fortitude as men.
Three women who were in the
Lindbergh home the night BABY
Charles was stolen from his crib
have testified on the witness
stand. They are Anne Lind
bergh, the mother, Betty Cow,
nurse-maid. and Elsie Whatley,
cook and housekeeper.
Minutely. step by step, these
three rehearsed the happenings
on that dreadful night when Anne
Lindbergh thought she heard a
shutter bang in the wind, when
what she did hear was tie kid
naper, escaping with her son.
Thew have retraced their own &C
tions and reactions and they have
described the conduct of each
other.
TER storie swere as alike as
three peas in a pod. They are
indicative of the character of the
women and of the household. An
orderly household in which each
knew her duty and performed it
with efficiency and dispatch. A
friendly household, with the mas
ter coming in at the back door to
inquire about his son from the
nursemain and the young mother
playing with her son in the living
room.
When Betty Cow discovered
the empty crib and came flying
down the stairs she did not
scream. She asked the baby's ia
Their if he had taken his son from
the nursery. She had already
questioned the mother and found
her arms empty.
When Mrs. Whately heard the
alarm she did not go into a
swoon. She joined the search.
When Colonel Lindbergh stood
n the rifled nursery and said to
MS wife: "Anne, they have stolen
our baby" the mother did not
wiring her hands and cry out
historically that such things
could not be. She was stunned.
she was stricken to her inner
most soul. She did what was re-
luired of her to help notify the
police. Then she went to the liv-
ng room and sat quietly awaiting
'urther orders.

Describing that scene in the
living room with the three women /
lifting in horror and in disbelief
# what had happened, Mrs.
Whately says:
"Mrs. Lindbergh was quiet.
Only once in a while she said oh
iod in a very low voice"
During the narrowing days and
lights that followed the kidnap-
ling Anne Lindbergh did not
apse into emotional frenzies or
lysterical collapses. Her one pur-
'ose was to be helpful in recov-
ring her lost son.
With excitement swirling about

went about their busi-
