NOTHING NEW IN, DEVELOP’
i
VI ENTS REPORTED DURING
THE PAST WEEK. .
HOPEWELL.—A reduced detail of
Stilte Police went an' duty at the es
'.ate of Col. Charles A. Lindbergh to
hly as- their investigations into the
kidnaping of the flyer’s son continued
without success. The whereabouts of
CAl. Lindbergh was still a mystery,
as; it has been for the past week. He •
wits known to have been absnt from
hit bom for several days and was
supposed to have returned Sunday,
bilt no one has admitted seeing him.
HOPEWELL—A1 Capone and some
>t* his henchmen are still trying to
chisel in on the Lindbergh kidnaping
ease, bu authorities engaged in seek-,
ing to restore the child to its parents,,
a# well as Col. and Mrs. Charles A. j
Lindbergh, said today that there is no,
refcswi to beleve either Capone or hist
helpers could really aid these auhori
ties. This disposed of repeated ru
mors that Capone and his gangsters
actually were promising delivery of
tWe child if Capone could have a few j.
lays’ release from his imprisonment, j
But Colonel Lindbergh steadfastly re-1
fused to make any liason with the
Chicago gangster or his associates..
There has not heen at any time any ;
suggestion in the Lindbergh group,
that Lindbergh himself would inter- <
cede for a release of any kind for
Cipone. Stories of big money offered
Capone are viewed skeptically j
sihee it is known that Capone’s funds 1
■ire running low and his once vaunt'
ll power n the Chicago underworld!
has waned materially since his his
imprisonment. Col. Lindbergh-has not
established any further Contact with
•.Me kidnapers, State poioe announced.
