DR.. Oberth said in an inter-

that materials for space con-

NEW LINCOLN SLAYING CLUE?
Old Book Revives Chorqe

GETTYSBURG, Pa, July 81
(AP).-A coded message in an
old English military journal
may cast a strange new light
on the assassination of Abra-
ham Lincoln SO years ago.
Whether it does appears to
hinge on the flamboyant char
acter of Brig. Gen. Lafayette
C. Baker, the Federals' Civil
War chief of secret police-a
man with a keen sense of
drama, who died under myste-
rious circumstances three years
after Lincoln's death.
Gen. Bakers message and
signature in the book-authen-
ticated by handwriting experts
is a weird allegorical state
ment pointing an accusing
finger at his superior, Edwin
M. Stanton, Lincoln's secretary
of war.
Stanton was a highly contro-
versial figure during and after
the conflict. Similar accusa-
tions have been levelled at
Stanton before, but never with
anything like convincing evi-
dence.
The book was found by Ray
A. Neff, a Gibbsboro. NJ, re-
search chemist. He investigated

"It was sickening," His
Lordship declared.
There were riots last year.
"It has become increasingly
apparent" he said, that there
is a large crowd of irreSponsi-
BILE persons who come to Beau
lieu with no other intention
than to cause trouble"
It wasn't the fault of the
genuine jazz fans, he added.
Lord Montagu hired a special
corps of tough cops from the
local conStabulary to help keep
order. Boys from a local boxing
club and, ju = jitsu exponents
from Cambridge University
also stood guard to throw out
gate -crashers.
Lord Montagu said he wasn't
abandoning the idea of holding
a festival somewhere. But not
in Beaulieu. He owns the place.
