we're prepared to step into the Weyer-

United States Attorney J. Charles
Dennis of this Federal district said
that under the law George is pre-
sumed to have been slain or to have
been taken across State lines if he
still is unreturned after seven days.
The kidnapers then face the gallows
or life imprisonment.
Until the seven days expired, the
Federal agents were interested in the
case through the mail fraud act,
which sets minimum of 20 years and
$4,000 fine for each extortion letter
sent through the mail
Belief the boy will be returned to
his parents alive was expressed con-
fidently by William Cole. chief of the
Washington State Patrol. which has
been mobilized for the Weyerhaeuser
case on Gov. Clarence D. Martins
orders
1t was the first time any officer
had made any statement about the
kidnapping and permitted his name to
be used. While Coles terse sentence
was sensational enough here the
mere fact that he, an official in the
case, made any statement was deemed
even more significant than what he
said.
Meantime, Sheriff L. C. Huntamer
Of Thurston County still refused to
identify the case which took him out
to Olympia so mysteriously early yes

and $40 denominations, as demanded
by the kidnapers in the note received
by the family last Friday, little more
than six hours after George was
snatched up from the street.
Why the kidnapers delayed ap-
parently was as much mystery to
the Weyerhaeusers as any one.
Detectives sped to restaurant in
Seattle late last night in response to

guardianship of the constitutional
rule under which We have lived for
$50 years, and his plea was repeated
In somewhat similar manner by Rep
