STATE CENTER OF KIDNAP HUNT Details of Ransom Letter Disclosed by Times: Deadline Near. (Continued From Page One) 000 ransom be sent in bills of certain denomination, with SI,OOO in ten-dollar bills and the remainder in fives and twenties. The bill must be old. the letter specified, and sent | bv express under an insured value of $lO. The name of a Nashville (Tcnn.) j man whose name The Times in- j formant could not recall, was given j as intermediary. If the Nashville negotiations fell through, the letter said, four other lawyers might be contacted. One address was in Milwaukee. Indianapolis was not on the lits of four Information Revealed Correct Both direct and veiled threats were contained in the letter. "Now' get the family together," the letter said, naming the four Stoll brothers, George, Berry, William and Charles. “Also Mr. Speed, and attend to! this immediately if you want to get! Mr. Stoll back. "We will always be against such | business tycoons as Mr. Mellon, Mr Stoll and ” The Times informant could not i recall the name of the third man linked to Mr. Stoll and Mr. Mellon, i None of the ransom letter quotations were released by Chiel Schmidt, but he admitted the information given by The Times informant was correct. Wooded Area Searched Meanwhile, preparations were under way today for a more extensive inch-by-inch search of the wooded area surrounding the Stoll mansion, with the conviction growing that the young society matron is dead. Both federal agents and police frankly are pessimistic about the chances ot finding Mrs. Stoll alive, but Mr. Nathan asserted at today's newspaper conference that he had no information "whether she is dead or alive.” Federal agents discredited the story of James E. Scales, a plastering contractor, whose experience last night threw authorities into a frenzy of action. Scales said his car was sideswiped by a sedan about five miles from the Stoll estate and that he got out to talk to the driver of the other car. Man's Story Is Doubted The driver, Scales said, threw a flashlight in his eyes, threatened him with a gun and ordered, “get j going.” Scales, who worked on construction of the Stoll mansion; and knew Mrs. Stoll by sight, said he thought he recognized a woman in the back seat of the sedan as the missing society woman. "Nobody's driving Mrs. Stoll about the countryside now," Mr. Nathan asserted, and explained that ! the flashlight's blinding glare and Scales' excitement probably prevented dependable vision. Reports from the hilltop mansion of Berry Stoll, the young Kentucky matron's husband, indicated that he is on the verge of prostration. A physician has attended him constantly since he announced last Thursday that all demands have been met. Local "Jafsie" Appears One feature of the Lindbergh kidnaping case was repeated today wnen a local "Jafsie" appeared on the scene. H. A. I. Rosenberg. Louisville attorney. against whom* disbarment proceedings are reported to have been instituted, announced himself as a self-appointed intermediary for the Stoll family. Advertising in a Louisville newspaper, Rosenberg offered his service as a contact man. He was the attorney who defended Theodore Geisking, Indianapolis hoodlum, when the latter was arrested here as a suspect in the Jake Lingle murder case. Rosenberg explained that he believes his wide contact among the Louisville criminal world would lead the kidnapers to have confidence in him as a go-between. He said he had had three phone call responses to his advertisement. Two of the callers, he sa:d. hung up immediately and the third said he would call back.

Upper—The hope that the brutally abducted Mrs. Alice Speed Stoll, Louisville (Ky.) socialite, may still be alive was given by James E.

The filling station operator. Jack Reynolds. 1336 Oakland avenue, did not obtain the license plate numbers of the car. which he said was a Studebaker or Graham-Paige, 1929 or 1930 model. The plates were black and white, the same as those of Kentucky, however. Reynolds said. The woman, he told police, was sitting in the rear of the sedan in a reclining position with her head swathed in bandages. She had a bloodstained handkerchief in her hand, acording to Reynolds.

SECOND STATE HORSE ROUNDUP THRILLS THRONG Riders and Mounts Display Great Skill at Gregg Farm Show. That equitation is by no means a lost art was revealed yesterday by riders who competed for prizes and pleasure in the second annual Indiana saddle horse roundup held at the Gregg farm, Meridian and One Hundred and Sixth streets. The day’s program got off literally to a “flying” start at 10 a. m„ when Miss Lucy Link opened the winners' column by jumping her mount, Big Canada, over the eight hurdles in the most horsewoman-like manner. But Miss Link w'as not content with one place in the contest and went "back stage” WFhere she secured two other jumpers. Safe Home and, Summit View, which she placed third and fourth in the same event, giving way only for Miss Anne Ayres to place Amazon in the second best position. Miss Cynthia Test walked, trotted, and paced her pony, Mitzie, into first place in the three-gaited championship for ladies, with Mrs. William Wemmer, second, and Mrs. Margaret Abraham Feore on Bourbet, third. Miss Test Wins Again But neither was Miss Test content with winning just one event for she came back in the very next competition and won first with Mitzie in the horsemanship championship for boys or girls between the ages of 9 and 13. Miss Test was followed in the horsemanship incident by Robert Bohlen on Bittersweet and Anne Elder astride Dan. Earl W. Kiger and Robert Hamilton displayed some promising 1934 colts in a two-sided contest which ended with Kiger taking off the first place prize. J. R. McNutt, C. E. Keller, and Harry McNutt walked off with first, second and third honors in the open class of five-gaited horses in which half of the judging was oil the rider and half on the horse. Among the United States army equestrians, who entered in the army riding contest, Major J. K. Boles was first, Lieutenant Charles P. Westphaling, second, and Corporal Duckworth, third. Arabian Steeds Exhibited The day's competing classes were given a recess while John A. George gave an exhibition of his Arabian mounts. These horses are the descendants of the original Arabian horses brought to this country. The Arabians have one lees vertebra than the American horse, and are on an average only fifteen hands high, which is short of the average American saddle horse. Early in the afternoon, a grand march of all entries, headed by Major-General Robert Tyndall, gave the spectators an opportunity to glimpsing a panoramic view of probably the best collection of horseflesh in this part of the country. In the saddle pony class, Nonpareil, with Bert Davis up, nosed out Miss Letitia Sinclair and her mount in some close competition. An exhibition of Indiana owned and “operated” show horses followed the saddle pony contest, in which several prize-winning mounts were displayed, including the famous Chestnut Twig. Dorothy Metzger Scores Little Dorothy Metzger was chosen by the board of judges as the outstanding horsewoman under the age of 9. In a bit of family rivalry, between Mr. and Mrs. William Wemmer, both entered in the open class, as usual tne husband gave in and took third place, with Mrs. Wemmer out in front for the blue ribbon, followed closely by the plucky Cynthia Test, who took the red banner. The starring horses in the touch-and-out jumping class were Summit View, first; Safe Home, second; Rocket, thiid, and Blizzard, fourth. These horses were faced by eight hurdles, each four feet high. Audrey Pugh Is Winner Miss Audrey Pugh, long a favorite in the ladies’ riding competition, especially in state fair shows, trotted out into the lead in the ladies’ fivegaited horse class, with Mrs. Feore, second and Miss Link third. The young gentleman, who walked off with the afternoon’s show' is named Suicide, and holds the title of the world's champion broadjumper among horses. His rider, Miss Eleanor Getzendaner put the ace leaper through a series of long jumps which provided plenty of thrills. This horse was a real showman and seemed to know' what his watchers liked. Miss Lois Getzendaner rode Two Step in several fancy riding tricks, not seen in every day four-footed activity. C. E. Keller came out conquerer in the gentleman's horsemanship contest, w’ith Mr. Wemmer in second position. In a bareback mounting race, the 1 object of which was mounting and riding to the tape in the shortest j length of time, the ponies assigned ! to the various riders, Private Bowles of the army won first place. Miss Sinclair and her rig, replete with a tiny coachmai\ all decked out in the fashion of years ago, took the judges’ fancy and captured the blue ribbon in the fancy turn-out conj test. Jo Ann Rice was second and Earl Kiger, third. In the three-gaited pair display

—- First of Series of Stories Traces Law Agencies to Roman Era. (Continued From Page One) less as were the Vigilantes in California. in order to compel the "bad men”, of certain districts to respect law and order of the day. They too, were forerunners of our present system. While metropolitan districts in the early days of this country were protected by regular police forces the rural districts were devoid of protection except in the cases of Vigilantes and Rangers. a v a 'T'HESE people had police -*• force to offer protection and as a result a "district police” was organized in Massachusetts in 1865. This force, primarily composed of detectives, covered the state, tracking down criminals wherever crimes had been perpetrated. This was the origin of our American state police, although it was not until 1919 that a reorganization took place in Massachusetts. The first state police force as we know it today was founded in Pennsylvania for the purpose of offering protection to rural people. The act creating this organization was approved apd signed by the Governor on May 2, 1905. Going back to the Pennsylvania records of that year w'e find that the members of the force were authorized and empowered to act as fire, fish and game wardens, beside their regular police duties. This clause had been retained in most forces, and it reminds us of origin of the Roman police or firefighting organization in the days of Catiline. The need of a rural police force in eastern states in those days was essential. Except for small communities there was no general policing and as transportation improved with the advent of the automobile and the broad highways it became quite apparent that criminals could operate successfully with little chance of being apprehended. That was the prime reason for the origination of a state police force in Pennsylvania. In the many other states, notably Massachusetts and New Jersey, state police forces were not created until the automobile became a menace to society. In other words the majority of forces serve as a protection against vehicle violators as well as apprehenders of crime. That is not the case in Pennsylvania. There both a state patrol and a state police are in operation, but they function separately under different supervision. Just what duties and functions a state police force performs are often confused by the public. In England the original purpose of the police was to prevent evils and to provide benefits. Today that still holds true and perhaps no police

Dave MacKinstray and Miss Gertrude Brown, came out winners, with Miss Test and her companion, Robert Bohlen, second. Miss Mary Stewart Kurtz was first-place winner in the contest for best horsemanship of boys and girls between 14 and 18. Miss Dorothy; Metzger was second, and Miss Barbara Hickam made it unanimously feminine by taking third place ribbons. Lees Win Family Honor Mrs. Feore and Dr. Chester Bonham rode off with the first ribbon in the five-gaited pair class, followed by C. E. Keller and Loren Cox. Wallace O. Lee and daughters, Luana and Mary Louise, and son Wally Jr., came through to win the family class. In the contest to decide the best horsewoman on the field. Miss Joan Metzger was picked from the flock, with Miss. Martha Hill her nearest competitor. Wayne Dinsmore, Chicago, executive secretary of the Horse Clubs of America, visited the roundup and expressed gratification at the manner in which the events were being run off. Jim Cronan, Louisville, secretary of the American Horse Breeders’ Association, was another guest. Gregg Thanks Crowd During the grand parade, C. F. Gregg spoke to the crowd from the top of his tally-ho-and-four, and expressed his thanks to those taking part as well as those in attendance for thus furthering the cause of the saddle horse in America. Among the extra-curricular acts put on by the riders and horses in the presence of Howard Allen, Seward Price and Colonel Thomas Sherbourne, judges, were a potato race, pony express race, an exhibition by the Traders’ Point Hunt Club, Cossack riding by the army riders, a water race, and an extremely interesting mounted game of the old-fashioned “musical chair’ stunt. The Eleventh Infantry band from Ft. Benjamin Harrison and the Lasley Concert band furnished music for the day’s outing, and more j than 300 national guardsmen and : state policemen were on hand to I handle the crowd.

organizations in the world outside of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police provide as many benefits to the people as do our various and scattered state organizations. Tales of courage and kindness, of daring and sacrifice have been romanticized for us by proponents of Canada's great force, but few indeed are the tales of sacrifice and help which our state police forces have contributed to our daily lives. a an THERE are any number of kind acts which have been freely and willingly offered by all of our organizations. Talcs of sacrifice are known to few, but they are common occurrences to these uniformed men. In New York only last winter, near the foothills of the Catskills, came word of a family marooned by the snow and cold. The report brought down by a trapper indicated that sickness and hunger prevailed in a shack somewhere far back in the hills. What was to be done? Instantly the citizenry of this small community to which the trapper had worked his way notified the nearest police barracks. A trooper was dispatched on horseback while arrangements were made to have an ambulance ready should the seriousness of the case merit immediate hospital attention. Part of the trip was made by horse, the rest on snowshoes. He found the family literally starving and the woman with a bad case of pneumonia. He left food, bundled the woman up and carried her on his back to the waiting ambulance many miles away. She lived and the rest of the family was provided for. In Massachusetts the people have come to depend on their state police to an even greater degree. These men, not unlike the Canadian Mounted, serve as doctors, counselors, and arbitrators. They rescue the drowning, revive those suffering from shocks or cold, perform every kind of service no matter how trivial. The result is that they are looked up to not necessarily as policemen but as friends ready to serve every wish. Every police force of this kind pays for itself many times over in purely monetary value. There is no real gauge whereby we can measure the exact value of a good police force for its acts of kindness are so many, so varied, so human in interest that it would be impossible to compute its value save to say that it is worth many times what actually goes into it in taxpayers’ money. It should be clearly borne in mind that state police forces everywhere are purely rural in character. They never operate in cities unless they are called in by the town or city police force. In Indiana this has been particularly stressed and we are coming to the day when more co-operation will be realized between town, city and state police. When this happens this state will be in a better position to cope with the current crime problem.

GUARD TENSE AS HOUR NEARS FOR PIERPONTDEATH Extra Keepers Are Added; •Something in the Air/ Says Warden. By fritted Print COLUMBUS. O. Oct. 15— Extra guards were posted at Ohio penitentiary by Warden P. E. Thomas today as he completed secret plans for electrocution Wednesday of Harry Pierpont, a last survivor of the John Dtllingcr outlaws. The warden explained the unusual precautions, which included the withholding of public announcement of the hour of execution, by saying "there is something in the air.” Anxiety at the penitentiary has continued since Pierpont and Charles Maklev were brought thero months ago to await death. An attempted break from the death house, which resulted in the slaying of Maklev and the wounding of Pierpont. added to the tenseness. Mr. and Mrs. J. G. Pierpont. Lakeville, Ind., parents of the gangster, visited him Saturday. He asked that they intercede no further for him with the Governor and rejected proposals that he seek spiritual comfort. "I'll die as I lived," Pierpont said. The doomed man has become sullen, but tractable, since failure of his and Makley's last desperate thrust for freedom.
