81 believe the retirement law
for Government employees was
enacted so as to give the older
men who have worked hard and
faithfully q chance to enjoy
some leisure in their old age and
also to make way for the
younger men to obtain employ
ment. 1 think it is one Of the
grandeSt things in the world"
Those were the sentiments ex-
pressed today by Charles S. Wal
ters, of 1887 Hamilton st. N. W.,
who has been retired from the
Washington Navy Yard for the
past year.
Mr.. Walters, who could not
find sufficient praise for the re-
tirement law, which has per
mitted him to spend happy lei
sure hours, learned his trade as
a machinist here, starting in 1894
and he remained at the yaro
continuously until he retired in
1885.
He began his Navy Yard career
in the old secondary mount shop
mechanism shop where he stayed
and later went to the bridge
until the sight shop was made a
separate unit apart from the
h. m. shop.
Recalling the developments in
the methods of work which took
place while he was in the yard
Mr.. Walters pointed out that 1t
used to take about 20 minutes
to cut threads using the lathes
which were run by belts and pull
leys. Now, he explained, since
electricity has come into use, the
machines can cut between 2C
and 80 threads an hour.

WIFE
DENIES STORY
OF SWEDE

NEW YORK, Dec. 81 UN.S0.
Mrs. Anna Hauptmann, who
claims she is about to vindicate
her husband, the late Bruno
Richard Hauptmann, today de-
clared that a purported story
told in Stockholm by Gunnar
Svedberg, Swedish house painter,
about the Lindbergh kidnapping Is
"just another pipe dream"
Svedberg, who said he once
lived in New York, is reported to
have told the American Consul
at Stockholm that the crime was
committed by a gang Of five men
and a woman and that Haupt-
mann was not involved in the ac-
tual kidnapping.
Hoffman to Bare Story
Through Julius Braun, head OF
the Braun international Detec-
tice Agency, who has been work
ing for her since her husband
was executed in New Jersey last
April, Mrs. Hauptmann said:
at is true that my husband
was innocent. Otherwise, 1t Is
lust another crackpOt story.
1--WE alone have the real
facts. We are getting ready to
close in on the guilty ones.
They are all in this country
and where we can put our hands
: on them. The story will come
out soon from Governor HOff-
man. Nobody but Governor
Hoffman will give out the real
story"
Mrs. Hauptmann said last week
she is still seeing Gov. Harold q.
Hoffman of New Jersey on the
case, and that they are about to
"astound the world" with certain
revelations about the Lindbergh
kidnapping and murder.
Ready to Sail
Braun said Mrs. Hauptmann will
leave the country ''the instant the
story comes out" He said:
"She is all ready to go to
Germany. When Governor HOff-
man names the guilty ones she
will sail. Her job will be fin
ished and she will go to Ger
many for a rest. 1t will be an
r astounding story and she doesn't
want to be here through all the
excitement to follow"
When Braun and Mrs. Haupt-
mann were first told Of the cabled
dispatches of Svedberg's story, they
grew excited, but when they were
told the Swede gave no names,
they hastily asserted there was
nothing to the story.
