JUSTICE TRENCHARD SIGNS
BRUNO'S 3rd DEATH WARRANT
Attorney To. See Haupt.
mann For Interview
Again Today

TRENTON, IN. j., Feb. 19.-
(UP) = Bruno Richard Haupt-
mann today was re-sentenced to
be executed in the week of March
30 for the murder Of the Lind
bergh baby.
For the third time Justice
Thomas w. .Trenchard who pre-
sided at the Pennington trial,
signed the death warrant for
Hauptmann.
The action was taken at the
jurist's home where he has been
suffering witt throat ailment.
Other developments in the case
included:
1. Political leaders said the
case had CROSSED state boundar-
ies," becoming a national issue
that might affect the presidential
election.
2. Governor Hoffman indicat-
ed he might ask Dr.. J. F. Condor
to return from Panama to answer
certain questions.
3. Samuel Liebowitz is expect
ed to visit Hauptmann in his death
cell again today.
Trenchard's action narrowed
Hauptmann's chances of escaping
the electric chair to two POSSIBLE
ties, another reprieve or a new
trial. Counsel would have to show
new evidence in order to get an
other trial.
