Holy Night is observed.
On the eve of the festival at the
spacious Church of the Nativity,
where a sacred grCtto rests on the
spot where Christ is believed to
have been born in a stable manger,
there was unconcealed tension.
There have been rumorS for sew

coffee houses of brewing trouble
between the large Ethiopian pop

The authorities, recalling the rae

this country he never would be
able TO grow up normally.
The Lindberghs apparently long
had discussed moving from this
country. but one recent incident
particularly decided them to wait
no longer. it was indicated.
The three year old boy, Jon, was
being driven home from nursery
school by a maid when a large au-
tomobile containing several men
crowded their car to a stop at the
curb. They jumped out of the car
with cameras, swiftly took pictures
of the child and raced away.
Preparations for the departure
for England were made with the
greatest secrecy. Col. Lindbergh
himself obtained the passports in
Washington about a week ago His
friendship with high officials en-
abled him to do so without any,
one becoming aware of his mis-
sion.
Again with utmost secrecy. ar
rangements were made to charter
a ship for the Lindbergh's exclus-
i've passenger occupancy. Officials
of the British as well as the Unit
ed States government, it was said,
cooperated to assist the secret de-
parture.
Neither the name of the ship
nor the port from which it sailed
was disclosed On the sailing day,
the Lindberghs went directly from
England to the port. No servants
accompanied them, and only a few
members of the family.
To Keep Citizenship
The LindberghS do not intend to
give up their American citizenship.
Reluctantly. they concluded that
so long as they remained in this
country their household would be
surrounded by an atmosphere of
fear which the child could not help
sensing.
Most of the threats which kept
the Lindberghs in constant anxiety
were the works of cranks, but they
could not be ignored Always there
hung over them the memory that
their first born had been kidnapped
and murdered.
The Lindberghs chose England
for their abode, it was said, be-
cause they felt that there they
would be safest and least molested,
that there the people had greater
respect for law than any other
place in the world.
