 IS QUESTIONED
Governor Hoffman Sc ek s Authority for An
 other Reprieve
BOASTS PROSECUTOR,
 HUNTERDON COUNTY
Bristling Statement Issued Against Anthony
 Hauck

TRENTON. N J., March 27.- Gov Harold E. Hoffman today charged that the whole Hauptmann case reeks with unfairness, passion and prejudice
 Gov Hoffman asserted that if the prosecution would tell him he had the right he would be glad to grant further reprieve.
 In a statement bristling with de- rision of Prosecutor Anthony Hauck, Jr., of Hunterdon County, Hoffman said he didn't believe he had right to grant another reprieve, but If the brilliant MT. Hauck and legal advisers will advise me, I will be glad to do it.
 NOT FAIR TRIAL
 T am more than ever firmly con- vinced that Hauptmann was not giv- en trial in line with what are con- sidered American standards of jus tice.'
 Hauck said he would oppose any move in that direction
 Gov. Holman denied he was trying to make laughing stock of the courts.
 'Hauck is the young man who told the jury he was going to prove John Hughes Curtis actually had contact with the gang in the Kidnapping. He proved it, then later participated in the trial which proved Haupt- mann committed the crime single handed said the Governor "Hauck was so confused and incompetent that later the trial was taken out of his hands and conducted by At torney General David T. Wilentz, for whom Hauck was permitted to act as messenger-b boy"
 Bruno Richard Hauptmann is scheduled to go to the electric chair next Tuesday night at o'clock for the kildnaping and staying of Baby Lindbergh.
