INSIDE job; IS HINTED IN KIDNAPING CASE AH Present and Past Employes of Lindbergh Are Questioned. (Continued from Page 1) of the air brought forth offers from many quarters to help in aviation searches. Governor Moore and Colonel H. Norman Schwartzkopf, chief of the state troopers, left the state capital before noon, for Hopewell to advise Lindbergh they were ready to offer even further co-operation, than already afforded, if there were anything the colonel desired. Moore’s secretary had been appointed to deal with the press, and the Sourland estate told the United Press that any news would have to come through Toohey. Developments of consequence were scanty, as Lindbergh and his wife passed more anxious hours. Among other clews that were run down for possible worth were: A woman alighting from a Jerseylicensed car in Boston posted a letter to Colonel Lindbergh. A motorboat, the Helen, was found by troopers at Wildwood, N. J„ but they refused to say if it was a possible link in the kidnaping. The vicinity was checked for caves which might be a possible hideout. Many Clews Followed Sundry reports of speeding autos containing women, men and babies came from many quarters within and without the state, and were checked up wherever they gave any promise of aid. While these clews were followed, state police were busy clearing the whole vicinity near the Lindbergh home. Lindbergh wanted press and other watchers cleared away, and it generally was accepted this meant he either expected the kidnapers to come up the lonely mountain trail —or he sought opportunity to move unmolested and unchecked should he want rendezvous with the kidnapers or their agents. The setting for the events of Wednesday afternoon and night matched the drama on which the attention of millions was centered. Ironically, they contrasted with scenes in this area during the war for freedom when one signer of the declaration of independence hid in a nearby cave from pursuing redcoats. Planes Lend Color to Scene All night long lights from one section of the house cast shadows that danced with the wind in the timber and underbrush on Sourland mountain. About midnight, an airplane zoomed down over the grounds. A flare was lighted and cast overboard. Its eerie lights and shadows intensified the interest of the curious who watched from afar The planes, incidentally, lent more color to a scene that required no color to grip the hearts of a nation of hero worshipers. Planes of the twentieth century swooped and banked* and turned above; trappers using the methods of the red man centuries before carefully trekked through the timber and uncut undergrowth that have helped to isolate the Lindbergh 400-acre estate. They were tracking footprints left by the supposed kidnapers as they worked below the windows of the second floor nursery Tuesday night, and from there carried 20-month old Charles Augustus Lindbergh Jr. away.

Have you what is commonly called that Tired Feeling ?
“Mother, I do wish you were well and strong”
“I just can’t go on”—how often yon hear this. So offen the reason is simple—that good body of ours has ‘‘run-down” under the strain of our way of living • . . pressure of work and worry. Those important precious red-blood-cells that mean so much to vitality become lowered in count ... the hemoglobin percentage begins to fall and we wonder “what is the matter.” If this is your trouble, why not take srep3 to overcome it—remembering that a “tired feeling” may be a warn-
ing ... so are pimples, boils and paleness. A general run-down condition means a lack of normal resistance to infection and disease.

RADIO ’TUNES IN' ON POSTAL REVENUE HERE Clancy Says Latest Figures Show Advertising Trend Leaving the Air. The radio industry has “muscled in” on Uncle Sam s postal business, and a good part of the blame for decreased revenues in the postoffices of the country can be attributed to the heavy program of advertising on the radio, it was intimated today by Postmaster Leslie D. Clancy. “I haven’t any figures at hand to prove a statement like that,” said Clancy, “but there is every indication that the radio has affected the postal revenues on a large scale. “Firms, which once used the mails considerably in their advertising campaigns now map out a heavy radio advrtising program and the cost is so heavy they can not afford to use the mails, too.” Turn Seen in Receipts Postoffice figures for February, however, reveal that perhaps the many complaints about advertising on the air is having its effect on advertisers. The item of permit mail, used mainly by advertisers, was the only branch of the local service to show an increase in February and that increase of $36,959. Postal officials admit this figure may mean advertisers are ending their radio contracts and are returning to the mailing system for their advertising. Believes Depression Lifting “As far as the depression goes,” said Clancy, “it certainly is lifting for the postoffice here. Right now

Meeting the Test * A Life Insurance, the great stabilizer of human welfare, carries on * *
PdEACE OF MIND, with which to face the present and plan for the future, never has meant more than it means today. These are trying times. It is difficult to believe that anyone has escaped the effects of a world-wide deflation of values, contraction of enterprise, social change. That life insurance companies, during the past year, have been able to show an increase of insurance in force is indeed a tribute to the high purpose which these institutions serve. It indicates a growing national consciousness of this reliable form of financial protection. Life insurance is, in a real sense, an investment in peace of mind, with interest payable in future comfort. It paves
