NEW YORK, Oct. 8.-Did the
kidnaper of little Bobby Green
lease pattern his crime after the
famed Lindbergh kidnapping case?
Or is it coincidence that the
story of this latest tragedy reads
much like the 21-year-old but
often retold story of the kidnap-
ing and death of Charles A. Lind
bergh. jr?
Yesterdays discovery-that g.
year-old Bobby's body had been
in it's shallow grave all the while
the hopeful family negotiated
with the kidnapers and paid a
hugh ransom-struck the Nation
with a terrible sense of famili-
arity.
It was familiar all who re-
membered-or had read about
the day in March. 1882. when
the Nation learned that the
baby son of the famous aviator,
sought for two months and ran
somed in vain, had been dead
all along.
But, besides that essential
similarity, the two cases had
other things in common.
Averted Early Search.
After the kidnapping of the
Lindbergh baby from its Hope
we'll IN. j. home on March l,
1882, the distraught parents
forestalled any Official hunt for
the kidnapers, hoping to get the
baby back safe by secret
ransom rendezvous.
The kidnapers had left a note
on the window sill of the baby'S
room, demanding $4,000 ran
som. When Col. Lindbergh en-
listed John F. Condor, college
teacher, to act as his inter-
mediary, the kidnaper sent a
series of letters to DR.. Condor
and talked to him by telephone.
Bobby Greenhouses con-
fessed kidnaper, Carl Austin
Hall, said he contacted the
family several times, twice by
letter.
To prove that he had the Lind
bergh child, the kidnaper mailed
in a brown paper parcel contain
ing a child's sleeping suit. The
LindberghS believed it was the
suit worn by their baby when he
was abducted, and decided to go
through with the ransom deal.
(Hall said he sent a school
pin of Bobby'S in his second
letter to prove he was the kid
naper.)
Dr.. Condon's first meeting with
the supposed kidnapers of the
Lindbergh baby was in a New
York cemetery. There the ar

Jewish Appeal in this country and
the United Israel Appeal, the Jews
here sought at least to match the
courage of Israel with a generosity
! of support and an earnestneSS Of
effort which were among the most
important factors in meeting the
desperate challenges of the first
years.
Gradually the epoch-making as
pect has been replaced by the
sober, certain fact of Israel itself
doing a day-to-day job of rehabilita-
ing and productivity integrating
the tide of newcomers. But even
this transition from heroic saga
to what may be termed a kind of
daily prose bristleS with very real
danger of apathy toward the new
situation which has lost its i'm
mediate dramatic intensity.
Need Still Great
Even now, however, hundreds of
thousands of Jews are still living
in very crude and inadequate
houses-rnakeshift wooden or alum
mum Shacks. Families are crowded
together. Sanitary conditions have
oftimes fallen seriously below the
standards of good health. Diet is
meager. In fact, the overall con,
stellation for a great number of
immigrants is still sore and des-
perate need.
Nor are these conditions limited
to affecting only the people Of
transition camps. The presence of
these socially and economically
weak areas is constant threat
not only to the people in them, but
to the whole fabric of the country.
Nearing Maturity
This coming year, however, can
be termed the "Year Of Strength
ening" because the foundation and
framework have already been
established. The important inroads
have been made; the greatest OBJ
stacles overcome. In this year, the
areas of want and sub-standard
living can be further reduced as
Israel is helped to integrate pro-
ductively the immigrants still in
the reception and transition
centerS.
The time is arriving when Israel
can consolidate its advances and
with the help Of Jews In this coun-
try, stride further toward maturity
and Self-sufficiency.

ceptibly is gaining strength and
growing up. The process, of course,
is painful, particularly since it has
to be compressed into so little time.
The situation is still more ag-
gravated by external problems over
which Israel has little or no control,
such as the see-saw, unstable peace
with the Arab nations, specifically
and generally, the charged atmos-
phere of international relations
whose storms often erupt over the
Mediterranean and the seething
Middle East.
Yet, in all this Israel can also
be considered an element of sta
bility, positive force for demo
cratic living whose emphasis is
the dignity of man and whose hope
is peaceful development.

Soviet Gesture
 Allows Two Reds To Be Discharged

VIENNA, Austria, R- Russia made its second gesture in "A hours to occupied Austria Tues day by agreeing to the discharge of two top-ranking Austrian Com munist police officials in Vienna.
 Austrian government sources re- vealed the new Soviet step only a few hours after Russian troops moved back a fringe of the Iron Curtain by lifting permanent mil itary controls on the demarcation line between the Soviet and the American and British occupation areas.
 Russian high commission off cials notified the Austrian govern ment the Soviets no longer would insist that the police chiefs of Wieden and Brigittenau two Russian-occupied districts of four power Vienna-should remain in office.
 When Austria's Communist Par ty made an unsuccessful attempt to overthrow the pro Western government in October, 1850, the two police chiefs were ordered fired by the Austrian Ministry of the Interior.
 But the Russians insisted they remain in office and on the pay roll. The Ministry of the Interior was forced to agree, but it got around the Soviet orders by re- laying all instruction to the dep- uty police chiefs of each district
 Ever since, the Austrian gov ernment has been putting pres sure on the Russians to agree to their dismissal.
