HOPE FOR LINDY BABY RESTS ON NORFOLK CLEW Negotiations at Standstill: No Contact for Days With Go-Betweens. Up United Press NORFOLK, Va., March 31.—Local negotiations with men claiming to have Charles Augustus Lindbergh Jr., kidnaped March 13, appeared temporarily at a halt today. Dean H. Dobson-Peacock, Rear Admiral Guy Burrage and John H. Curtiz, acting as intermediaries for Colonel Lindbergh, have had no actual communication with the men claiming to be the kidnapers, or with their agent, for several days. Statements by the three indicated they have had great difficulty convincing Lindbergh that the Norfolk men have the baby. Lindy Not Convinced Colonel H. Norman Schwartzkopf has been quoted at Hopewell as saying Lindbergh thought the Norfolk ‘ clew" had no special significance. Admiral Burrage explained that (he aviator and his wife are ‘‘so distracted that nothing can convince them except the actual sight of the baby.” The admiral then admitted he was ‘‘not completely convinced" of the truth of the story told to Curtis by the man claiming to be the kidnapers agent. Rumors current in Norfolk said the ransom money has been deposited in a local bank, but Burrage said no arrangements had been made for payment of ransom. Statement to Public Earlier in the day Dean DobsonPeacock solemnly had read a statement to the public: ‘‘lf there is failure in the Norfolk negotiations, the kidnapers and j they alone will know why.” It was learned Wednesday that Curtis* "mystery flight” last weekend was to Philadelphia. He flew in a navy plane, and registered at the navy yard as "Mr. Guy.” Some close to him said he had continued on to Hopewell to see Lindbergh: but Burrage said as far as he knew the Norfolk shipbuilder did not confer with Lindbergh. New ‘Jafsie’ Note Up United I’n s* NEW YORK. March 31.—Another of the mysterious "Jafsie” advertisements which have been published since the Lindbergh baby was kidnaped appeared in the New York American today. This one, printed in capital letters in the "public notices” column, read: “I accept. Money is ready. Jafsie.” Previous messages signed with this name have mentioned money, and one of them expressed a desire to “see the goods” first. There has been nothing to connect them with the Lindbergh kidnaping case, however. Foil Chicago Kidnaping Up United Press CHICAGO. March 31.—Police pa(roled the residence of Arthur J. Baer, vice-president of the Central Republic Bank & Trust Company, after a suspected kidnaper was thwarted by a maid’s vigilance.

Great Britain Challenged by Sulu Princess

Princess Tarhala Kiram lip United Press WASHINGTON, March 31. The state and war departments seemed more amused than concerned today by press reports from Manila that Princess Tarhata Kiram of the Sulu sultanate, former American co-ed, was demanding that Great Britain surrender claim to certain nearby Pacific islands. State department officials held that any doubt as to jurisdiction of the ink-dot” islands between the southern tip of the Sulu archipelago and British-adminis-tered North Borneo was settled by the United States British convention of 1930. This agreement established a line between the Sulu archipelago and North Borneo. It provided that all islets north and east of the line should be part of the Philippines and all south and west of the line should belong to North Borneo.

His record is indorsed by all progressive organizations. White said he favors municipal ownership of public utilities, and legislation reducing utility rates to a fair level to halt “gouging of the consuming public.” White has been president of the local Allied Printing Trades Council for eleven years.

RED ARMY IS STRENGTHENING BORDER LINES 4,000 Tons of Wheat Are Shipped Into Port of Vladivostok. By Times Special WASHINGTON, March 31. Authentic reports reaching Washington today said the Soviet army is continuing to strengthen its position throughout Priamuy province j on the Siberian-Manchurian border j and that more than 4,000 tons of wheat have been shipped into Vladivostok during the past ten days. These moves were viewed in informed circles here as directed toward defense in case Siberia should be invaded by Japanese troops. Tokio has denied that Japan has any such intention. Still other reports from reliable neutral sources in the far east indicated the new Manchurian government, allegedly fostered by Japan, is meeting strong opposition from Chinese opponents. In China proper, reports described anew outbreak of "incidents” along the Chinese-Japanese front near Shanghai. War Moves Continue Bp United Press SHANGHAI, March 31.—Military defense works were being constructed by Chinese and Japanese armies in the Shanghai area today despite assurances of leaders that peace negotiations were progi '•ssing satisfactorily. The Fifth and Nineteenth route j armies were building trenches along 1 the west bank of the Tsingyangkiang river in the vicinity of Henli, 1 where foreign residents of Shangj hai hold an annual regatta. Japanese troops constructed bulwarks in Kiangwan and other villages surrounding Shanghai, although commanders gave no indication of their purpose. From Chinese sources it was reported that Japanese peace conferees desired an indefinite continuation of their occupation in four areas around Shanghai, the Woosung and Yangtzepoo districts, in Chapei from North Szechechuen road and in Kiangwan eastward from the race course. Fight as Allies By United Press CHANGCHUN, Manchuria, March 31.—Chinese generals led defenders of the Japanese-controlled city of Nungan today as a heavy force of guerillas attacked from three sides amid bitter hand-to-hand fighting. Arrayed at the side of Japanese troops, native commanders ordered a major offensive to begin Friday in an attempt to rout the irregulars, who are threatening security of the new Manchurian republic. The Nungan siege was the biggest of many battles in which Japanese and their Chinese allies fought growing ranks of Chinese “bandits” over far-flung districts of Manchuria.

A- few months ago overwork and worry caused me to neglect regular and proper eating . . . then unfortunately I caught a cold. It was not long that with the least exertion I felt exhausted—some days I was barely able to work—it began to look as if some disease was getting a foothold—l realized the importance of taking prompt precautionary measures. "I couldn’t afford hospital treatment or to go off to a health resort —my position was at stake ... my family was dependent upon my earnings. "I had sense enough to know that a ‘lowered’ blood count was the cause of my weakness and lack of resistance. Several of my friends had been benefited by taking S.S.S., and had suggested that I try it, too. Fortunately I did. “Look at me now—l feel fine ... my complexion was never better ... I sleep like a child . . . and as for my appetite, I really enjoy my food and digest it with ease.” The reasonable way to health Os course, it isn’t fair to expect one to like work or to enjoy play when handicapped by a “lowered” blood count Without plenty of rich, red-blood-cells there could be no strong, sturdy men and healthy, beautiful women. Unquestionably you appreciate the fact that red-blood-cells play a dominant role in maintaining health ... and that dangerous consequences often follow the neglect of a lowered blood count It is very usual for a lowered red-blood-cell count to symptom itself in pallor of the skin, lessened vitality, boils, pimples, or other skin disorders, and in a general lack

Contestants have been asked to deliver their entries between the hours of 8 a. m. and 5 p. m. today and Friday. Judging from the first models submitted, this year’s contest entries will exceed by far in design and constructive skill models entered in any of the four previous contests, according to Ernest C. Spickelmier, contest chairman. This view was concurred in by J. Ray Monoghan, contest consulting architect, who said the models show remarkable architectural merit of design and ingenuity in development. The youth building the house awarded first prize will receive a trip to Washington, D. C., with all necessary expenses paid by The Times. Cash prizes totaling $93 have been offered by the Indianapolis Real Estate Board for the runners-up. In addition, prizes of $6, $4 and $2 have been provided for the three models with the best landscaped lots.

50,000 TO PLAY IN BRIDGE MEET Culbertson Mails 16 Hands to Earth’s Tour Corners.’ By United Press NEW YORK, March 31.—The "world bridge Olympic” tournament with 50,000 players in the four corners of the earth will start promptly at 8:01 p. m. Friday. Sixteen hands, most of them tricky, have been mailed out to game captains in every state of the union and Shanghai, Manila and Timbuctoo. At the appointed hour the player will sit down, the 1,000 game captains will start play and, at the end, 350 gold and silver trophies will be awarded. Ely Culbertson, bridge expert who recently triumphed in 150 rubbers with Sidney Lenz, and a sort of super-referee of the Olympic, was not even disturbed today by the report that samples of the sixteen hands had drifted into the “wrong hands.” He declared that most bridge players could study the hands for a week and still not know the right way to bid and play the sixteen hands, ways supposedly known only to Culbertson.
