LINK NEGRO TO (CONTINUED FROM PAtH* ONE) near the scene of the slaying of Mrs. Florence Johnson, wife of ft city fireman, In her apartment lees than a mile from the Chicago hospital. She had been beaten to death with a brick. After 38 hours of questioning he confessed the Johnson attack and the similar brick killing nearly two years ago of Mre. Florence Thompson Castle, night club hostess, In her loop hotel room. Police planned to have hint re-enact the castle attack today. Two Los Angeles detectives arrived today to question the prisoner in connection with the similar killing last year of Mrs. Edna Worden and her 12-year-old daughter, Marguerite. They were beaten to death with a brick. The detectives said fingerprints identified Nixon as the slayer. o

HEAD OF FEDERAL (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) shack, after leaving another note at the Cash home to direct the father there. Appearance of the negro hinted that the federal men may he attempting to identify an unnamed suspect- possibly already In custody. It was reported that when the kidnaper sought to obtain delivery of the note through the negro, he shouted 111 a voice with a foreign accent. Three other persons reportedly were being questioned at the FBI headquarters, but the G-men would not confirm this. It was understood however, that they were Willard Campbell, colorful Florida character who has been involved In charges of liquor law violation and gun running; F. M. Braxton, 55, a neighbor of the Cash family, and his son-in-law, Ray Rayburn. Printed and mimeographed lists of serial numbers of the “hot money” appeared on almost every cash register and on the desk of every bank teller In Florida this morning. It seemed unlikely that uny one of the ransom hills could be cashed without quick recogni-1 tion. The rainfall added seriously to the difficulties of searchers In the | swampy southern Florida Ever- [ glades and J. Fritz Gordon. Miami j attorney who organized plans for the search, said his force of possemen \yill he depleted. All hope for the life of the five and a half year old child had all hut vanished as an army of 3.200 civilians, including American Legionnaires and members of the Ku Klux Klan, took up again at dawn an inch-by-inch search of the tip of the Florida peninsula. Their objective was to find the baby alive or dead, and, if possible, to find the kidnapers. G-men circulated in such numbers in Miami and Princeton, 25 miles south of the metropolis and scene of the kidnaping last Saturday night, that it was evident Chat 1 heavy reinforcements had been! sent in during the last 21 hours ! G-men directed the searchers and G-men were questioning friends; and neighbors of the child's father, | prosperous owner of a chain of filling stations, who paid a SIO,OOO ransom without result early Tues-1 day. Spurred by a reward of SI,OOO provisionally posted by the Dade county commissioners, and steeled by the warning of E. J. Connelly, head of the Miami office of the G-man, that "we must be prepared to find this hoy dead,” the motley army of farmers, field workers, everglade trappers, fishermen, and volunteers from Miami and the surrounding country, set out in a temper that boded no good for any person or persons* to whom evidence pointed that they might find. Against the possibility of mob violence, Gov. Frederick P. Cone had authorized the use of national guardsmen. A flotilla of boats, assembled and manned overnight by the marine disaster relief committee, set out to search the countless hidden bays and coves of the Florida Keys. Expert swimmers recruited and directed by state fire warden G. J. Stokes began diving in all inlets along the coast and in rock pits, searching for a body. Robert J. Dill, state WPA administrator, telegraphed from Jacksonville that WPA workers could have time off to aid in the search nnd as a result several hundred of them joined. While the search army was setting out, the G-men were broad- i casting the numbers of the bills i which Cash paid to his soil’s kid- j napers. It was known that the G-men were all but certain that the child was kidnaped by a resident of this village of 600 or of the Redlands farming district of which Princeton Is a center, and for this reason they placed great faith In the ransom Dills leading to the criminal. They believed that the kidnapers, unsophisticated and amateur crimin als, would stupidly aid their own

capture by spending (he money at once.
