‘THE KID’S’ BODY FOUND IN CELLAR SUM FIEND Little Corpse Is Identified as Irving Pickelny, Aged 4, Missing, By United \evs NEW YORK. Nov. 21. —A man c&me plunging up the steps from a foul, unfrequented basement beneath a Suffolk St. tailor shop on the lower east side, his face greenish and his eyes staring with horror. “The kid,’’ he shouted to all Suffolk St. “The kid; the kid; he's down there, dead.” Within ten minutes Suffolk St. was a swarm with thousands of ghetto folks in a welter of excitement. "The kid,” meant Irving Pickelny, the 4-year-old son of a poor garment maker. All the east side had been looking for Irving for three weeks. They converged on the dirty block of Suffolk St,, where the man had emerged from the dark hole beneath the tailor shop, shouting “The kid, the kid.” Push-cart peddlers wavered between impulse and caution, then gave way to impulse and joined the wild scene. [ Within fifteen minutes it was neceseary to call out all the reserves of the nearest police station to disperse the crowd lest some be trampled in the crush. A woman tore away from the border of the maelstrom and ran to the tenement where Samuel Pickelny and his ■Wife were sitting, sad-eyed and wordless before the remains of the breakCast herring. “They’ve Found Him” “They’ve found him; they found the kid.” she told them in a blast of elation at being there first with the news. Pickelny jumped up. “Dead?” But the woman was on her way opreading the news: “They found the kid.” Pickelny’s uncertainty, the agony of three weeks, ended a few minutes later when the police told him the boy was dead. Irving apparently had been j enticed to the basement by a fiend and killed where his body was found, perhaps within the hour of his disappearance on Oct. 26. The little boy appeared to have been aufTocated. Father Utterly Crushed “Oh, God! My boy! Thank God he Is where no more harm can come to him.” Pickelny sagged into a chair tn the office of the medical examiner at the morgue after the ordeal of making the identification. Utterly crushed by the confirmation of the dread that had driven him and the boy’s mother nearly frantic for weeks, Pickelny was unable to move for a moment. Then he began clubbing his temples with his fists in a frenzy of grief. “Oh, it’s Irving, all right,” he said. “There’s no doubt about It. I made the little coat for him myself In my spare time. I made the pants. His mother made the blouse. My baby, oh my baby. He Is safe now, but how he must have suffered.” Cornelius Willemse detective captain and terror of the east side gangs had devoted all his own time and employed several of his detectives unceasingly for two weeks after the kidnaping. They had searched dozens of basements and had followed clews all over the city and to adjacent cities.
Expert on Trail Captain Wiliemse, the man who caught Kid Dropper and a dozen members of his gang with the pistols on them in one swoop a few weeks ago, had turned to the hunt for a missing baby of helpless, poor parents with the same zeal. A few days ago he was compelled to turn his attention hack to the gunmen as the crime wave broke over the city. He declared a momentary truce, however, when the report of the finding of the body was brought to him and rushed with his men to the basement to examine the place for any belongings which the murderei might have left behind. There is only a faint hope of finding the murderer. A little Italian girl was murdered in the fame manner in a tenement basement in Brooklyn less than a year ago and no arrests were made. And the kidnaping of Irving Pickelny followed soon after the police gave up the search for an infant kidnaped from a baby carriage on the lower west side late in the summer.

NEW THIRD PARIY FAILS TO AGREE OVER FORD ISSUE Antis Bolt Conference, Hold Rump Convention and Adjourn, Bv United Press OMAHA, Neb., Nov. 21.—Attempts to form a national third party by uniting the progressive forces of the Middle West under a “Ford for President” banner failed in political conferences today. Fifty delegates, called by Roy M. Harrop, an avowed booster of the candidacy of Henry Ford for President, threw the conference into heated debate on the question of indorsing Ford and finally divided into two opposing factions. While Harrop and his followers clung tenaciously on, re-affirmed their support of Ford and laid plans for a national convention of the “peoples progressive party,” the opposing delegates held a conference of their own, denounced the indorsement of any candidate at this time and adjourned. J. A. H. Hopkins, chairman of the “committee of forty-eight,” an invited speaker at Harrop’s "Ford rally,” brought discord to the conference in attacking the proposed Indorsement of Ford.
