nounced they were ready and will
ing to pay and that the ransom
was waiting.
The San Francisco Examiner
carried the classified advertisement
the kidnaper had instructed the
family to insert A the first step to-
ward obtaining release Of the baby.
An ad-taker at the paper said
the family telephoned the advertise
ment from Hillsborough at 1910
p. m. last night.
AUTHORITIES FEARFUL
But some authorities entertained
grave fears for the safety OF the
little victim, despite the kidnapers

The kidnaper. who snatched the
baby from his nurse in a street Of
this wealthy suburb of San Fran

many wealthy connections, that
the crime will be known as the
California Lindbergh case.

tenson. multi Millionaire lumber
and shipping magnate.
Her mother is now the wife OF
Louis Shattuck Gates, wealthy
president of the Phelps Dodge
corporation, the copper firm.
Her father was drowned IN

On his fathers side, the elder
count is a descendant of an old
French noble family. and on his
mothers of the pioneer California
banking family of Parrott which,
Mt one time, owned tremendous

LIGHTS ARE BURNING
The ransom money hastily was

$40 bills. as the kidnaper directed,
and was piled on table in the de
Tristan mansion. where the dis
traught parents. Gates, Mrs Gates
ana other close relatives waited for
some word from the kidnaper.
Lights burned in the house all
night. and outside street and side-
walks were deserted.
Blocks away police were sta
toned to keep idle curiosity seek
ers from jeopardizing chances OF
the parents obtaining contact with
the kidnaper.
NOTE IS ANALYZED
They were dealing with no ord
mary criminal His 600-word ran
som note had made that clear. And
he had bungled the job from the
start.
This caused authorities some
anxiety-lest he bungie irrevocaoiy
in the delicate business Of collect
ing the ransom. and feel himself
under compulsion of killing ms
baby victim to escape detection

SYRACUSE. N. r. Nov. ls-The
National Grange considered today
two proposals designed to maintain
farm price levels and to allocate
equitably" to each farmer In the Ma
ton share Of the domestic crop.
Shortly after Harry B. Caldwell,
master Of the North Carolina State
Grange, proposed creation Of nA-
tional bargaining agencies to secure
fair prices for al farm crops, Erwin
King Of the State Of Washington
urged Federal board to set State
and county quotas Of all crops.
Mr.. King asked that county COM
mittees Of farmers allocate to each
producer his share Of the county
quota, presumably based ON produc-
ton capacities.
Thus, he said, the demand would
be shared by al producers and there
would be established - fair Amer
lean price based on American cogta
which would result in the farmer re-
