The New Jersey state reward was offered as result of legislative action Monday night under suspension of rules. The bill was offered in the senate by Senator Emerson L. Richards. severe critic of the state police. "No crime ever tugged at the heart strings of the world as has the kidnaping and killing of the Lindbergh baby.

kidnaping for ransom punishable by death. Colonel H. Norman Schwarzkopf, in charge of state police prosecuting the hunt for the kidnapers and murderers, had no major development to report. He did offer some comment on a "Maryland gangster" reported involved in the case A man known as Katz. Schwarzkopf said, had stated he knew who was responsible for the kidnaping. Description of this person referred to as Katz was received and ilnvetigated. It was determined that j none of the persons arrested at the time spoken of were either named or had an alias of Katz. “The only persons connected with; this case who answered the description given were a lawyer and his brother, both of them reputable. It j is believed by the Investigators that j the informant was mistaken in his identification as to the description and the name he gave.” If Schwarzkopf’s announcement referred to the story’ told a few days ago by Arthur Mills. Baltimore Bertillcn expert, the facts in*his bulletin and Mills' story varied. A gangster, not arrested ih an Ocean City tMd.) raid, told Mills two days before the Lindbergh baby was found that the child had been killed and left within five miles of the Lindbergh home. This gangster was described by Mills to the state police the same day, he said. Descriptions of the three men said to have been in the kidnaping gang also were furnished, he said.

WETS JUBILANT OVER SHOWING IN BEER VOTE Anti-Prohibition Leaders Predict Clear Majority in Next Congress. BY WALKER STONE Ttrar* SSaff Wrltit WASHINGTON, May 24.—Alj though the wets failed to show up as strong in the beer vote Monday as they did in the Beck-Linthicum resubmission vote earlier in the session, anti-prohibition leaders in the house today jubilantly predicted a clear majority for modification in J the next congress. •'At least 200 present members of | the house are ready to become permanently wet,” Representative John T. O'Connor (Dem., N. Y.>, coauthor of the beer bill. said. “A great many shied clear of Monday's vote thinking they ought | to straddle until aiier the election. • If they survive the election, they'll ; never vote dry thereafter. “In addition, at least thirty outright drvs will be replaced by wets. ! to give us a total strength of about 230 in the next congress.” Two hundred eighteen votes are required for a majority in the house. Serenely confident that the voters of the nation will rally to the wet banner this summer and fall, house i anti-prohibition leaders think Monday's vote served the good purpose ot placing all memoers on record Sixteen members who voted .or resubmission were found back on | the dry side Monday against beer. ' Eight members who voted against ; resubmission cast their first wet votes Monday when they lined up | behind the beer measure. The vote

was 228 against and 169 for the beer bill, with ten pairs, compared to 227 against and 187 for the BeckLinthicum resolution. Three of the new anti-prohibition recruits came from Indiana, which has had a primary since the BeckLinthicum vote; two came from Louisiana, where wet sentiment is soaring, and one each came from Pennsylvania. Minnesota and Utah Monday's vote also gave new life to the feud between she Democratic and Republican parties, which have for the past year been racing wetward neck-and-neck. In the Beck-Linthicum “ote there were more Republicans than Democrats on the wet side. But Monday the Democrats forged ahead—the Why Fat Folks Slay Fat “The trouble with me. and I guess this applies to 99 e of the men and women who are putting on weight.
