ALWAYS SEEKING NEWS"
Mrs. Hauptmann Haggard After IS
Months of Worry.

TRENTON, N. j., March 20 Op).-
rs there anything new?"
This question, so common among
the residents and press reporters in
the New Jersey capital now that an
other climax in the case of Bruno
Richard Eauptmann is being reached,
is most frequently asked by the pris-
oner's wife, Anna.
Thin, haggard, after 1S months Of
free her husband Of charges Of kid
naping and numbering the Lindbergh
baby. Mrs. Hauptmann continues to
nope for news" that may swerve her
husbands court-ordained destiny in
the Trenton electric chair shortly
after o'clock Tuesday night.
Aside from the prisoner himself, no
one is more closely entwined in the
course of justice as it affects Haupt-
mann than Mrs. Hauptmann- Yet
few in this city, where rumors, state
mentS, charges, cross-cnarges, and
predictions are borne to thousands Of
alert eyes and ears are less informed
than Hauptmanns wife.
"Is There Any News"
els there any news?" she asks
quizzically of all who might have in
formation on the case. The Governor,
counsel and Investigators tell her
nothing.
She grasps at stray wisps OF events
that might be interpreted to indicate
that Hauptmann might live beyond
Tuesday night. But there is nothing
definite.
II would rather not hear such
things" she complains. i get hope
full, then I realize that Richard is still
there (she does not talk of the prison
and death house as such) and de-
spair.''
She has been informed by some that
a reprieve seems almost certain.
"Ach," she disdains the informa-
ton, Il want to know If they will let
him come home to his baby and me.
I don't care so much about reprieve
any more, unless it will give us time
to get to the truth of the Lindbergh
kidnapping"

By the Associated Press.
MOSCOW, March 28-The outer
Mongolian Republic proclaimed its ap
proval of a mutual assistance agree
ment with the Soviet Union today,
Just after Soviet advices said three
Japanese invaders were killed in re-
newed fighting on the Far Eastern
frontiers.
Under the terms of the virtual mill
tary alliance, Russia's huge army
would go to Mongolia's aid in the
event that threats of Far Eastern
invasion, attributed to the Japanese,
were fulfilled
japanese forces were reported in
Soviet press advices to have been
concentrating near the Norm Lake
sector Of the boundary between Outer
Mongolia and the Japanese-sponsored
state of Manchukuo, leading to
Soviet belief that further border raids
were in prospect.
Assembly Approves Pact.
The Soviet Unions mighty army of
more than one million men was ex-
pected not to be called upon for pro-
lection by the Outer Mongolian re-
| public, however, unless q major in
| vasion were launched.
The small Hural, or peoples as
sembly, of Outer Mongolia approved
the mutual assistance pact with Rus
sia last night and concluded its ses-
sions with authorization for an i'll
crease in the size and equipment of
the Mongol Army.
The Moscow announcement Of the
Mongol action followed closely upon
the reports of fresh border fighting
and Japanese rejection Of a Soviet
suggestion for formation Of a COM
mission to study the disputes on the
entire so-Manchukuoan frontier
Soviet advices said five Japanese
cavalrymen invaded Soviet territory
yesterday afternoon over the Arguni
River. near settlement at Borzinsky,
and clashed with Soviet border pa
troll. Three of the Japanese we're re-
| ported to have been left dead on
Soviet soil, the two other cavalrymen
retreating to Manchukuo.
Soviet Vice Commissar for Foreign
Affairs NJ Stomanyakoff protested to
japanese Ambassador Tamekichi Ota
against the incident, the latest in a
series which began last Wednesday
and has become more pronounced III
the last few days.
Pointed statements in the official
press today made plain the Soviet
Union intends TO defend the territory
Of outer Mongolia, along the with its
own, and any attempt Of large scale
invasion may lead to war.
japanese Warned.
The newspaper IZvestia pointed out
the Soviet Union has already demon
strated that it is deeply interested in
the integrity of the Mongolian peo-
piles republic and that it cannot re-
main inactive if Mongolia is exposed
to an attack.
If Japan really needs peace with
the U. S. S. r." the paper continued
1T should not play with the idea that
it is sufficient to take measures to
solve disputes only on the Soviet
border.
1T should not instigate continuation
of present conditions on the Mongolian
frontier"
The paper expressed "amazement'
that the japanese wish to leave the
Mongolian problem outside of the scope
of the Mixed Commission to inquire
into boundary differences.
