KNOX OFFERS
PLATFORM

BEAVER FALLS, PA, Feb. 8.
I.N.S0-"American people to-
day are not only struggling with
unsOund financial policies in
the administration Of their gov.
ernmentaI affairs but are face
to face with something that is
not an American form Of gov.
ernment."
This was charged here by Col
Frank Knox, Chicago publisher
and Republican presidential pos
sibility.
Continuing his attacks on the
Roosevelt Administration at a
meeting of the Manufacturers
Association of Beaver county here
Colonel Knox laid down a six
point platform for the restoration
of prosperity:
"There will have to be lower
costs in government.
Deficits will have to be
stopped.
"The Federal budget will have
to be balanced and kept that
way.
"AlI doubt as to the future of
the dollar must be removed and
this means a return to the gold
standard.
Governments entrance into
the field of private enterprise
in competition with its own
taxpayers will have to be
stopped.
There must be q complete
elimination of a policy of CO.
erciOn on business and on agri.
culture"

TRENTON, N. j., Fep. I4.N.S.I.
Gov. Harold G. Hoffman today
reiterated that if prosecution wit
nesSes in the trial Of Bruno Rich
ard Hauptmann told the truth
there were "other persons" con-
cerned in the baby Lindbergh kid
nap-murder case.
Conversely, the governor said, II
statements of these witnesses were
unreliable, it would be "a great
miscarriage of justice to send a
human being to the electric chair"
upon evidence supplied by the wit
neSSeS.
The governors observations were
made shortly before turning over
his gubernatorial duties to an
acting governor so that he might
undergo an operation to remove a
nasal obstruction at Mercer HoSpi-
tai here.
Hoover Aid Due
Coincidentally, he made public
the gist-but not the text-of a
report submitted to him by Col.
H. Norman Schwarzkopf, super
intendent of the New Jersey
State police, on the progress Of
the revived investigation into the
crime Of the century" the revivi-
fication following a flat order
from the governor that the in
vestigation was to be continued.
Colonel SchwarZkopf reported
reception of promises Of coopera-
ton from j. Edgar Hoover, chief
of the Bureau of Investigation of
the Department of Justice, and
Police Commissioner Lewis j.
Valentine of New York. He also
said he had conferred with At
torney General David T. WilentZ
and State police detectives who
had worked on the case since the
kidnapping and indicated he wes
doing his utmost to carry out the
governors orders.
Commenting on that phase OF
Schwarzkopf's report dealing with
pledges of cooperation from other
law-enforcing agencies, the gov
ernor handed out statement
which said:
at was not to be expected
that the Federal Bureau Of In
vestigatiOn or the New York city
police would initiate and assume
responsibility for further prose
cutiOn of this case, but / am
sure that every possible degree
of cooperation will be given In
matters involving extraditiOn,
the presence of witnesses from
other States, ETC."
The governor added that when
New Jersey brought Hauptmann
to trial on the murder charge,
rather than giving its consent to
prosecution on an extortion count
in New York, this State placed
full responsibility for further
prosecution Of the case" in the
hands Of New Jersey officials.
CAN'T FOLD UP
'T am determined that that
responsibility shall not be
evaded and that every human
effort shall be made to bring
all persons involved in this hOr.
rible crime to the bar Of justice.
"Any unprejudiced person
reading the statements and teS-
timOny Of New Jerseys chief
witnesses for the prosecution
must be convinced that If they
were telling the truth there are
other persons involved in the
crime and must agree that no
enforcement agency is justified
in folding up while there Is
still SO much to be solved in
this case.
''If the statements and the
testimOnr of these witnesses Is
unreliable-and IL must be If
there are no other persons in
vOIved In the crime-it then
seems to me that IL will be =
