TO UNDERGO SANITY TEST If'untlnticd From rimi* One) both ‘ kidnaping ami murder. The Lindbergh Hopewell home is in Hunterdon county, ami while the baby's body was fouml In Mercer county, it was believed the New Jersey prosecutors would contend that the baby was killed immediately after it was taken from the house. Whether the baby was killed by accident or design would have no legal bearing, it was said. Some detectives believed from the very beginning that the kidnaper fell in defending the ladder, dropping the infant which caused death. Others believed the baby was deliberately killed. One rung of the ladder was broken, indicating it had broken under the kidnaper's weight. A number of ’ witnesses, including a physician and Miss Anita Lutzenberg, a dress fitter and friend of Hauptmann, who told her story to Bronx county authorities yesterday, have said that Hauptmann walked with a limp the summer following the crime. The prisoner remained indifferent, apparently unconcerned, in his closely guarded cell in Bronx county jail. An effort was being made by his wife, relatives or attorney to raise the $100,000 bail set yesterday when lie was arraigned on an indictment charging extortion. District Attorney Foley said that should it be raised, he would move to have the bail inereased.

David E. Lilienthal, director of the Tennessee Valley Authority, widely known DePauw graduate, and Llewellyn Evans, chief electrical engineer, are in London studying the big British "electricity grid," which is. to harness and drive, as a team of nine, all the generating stations in England, Scotland and Wales. This $135,000,000 “grid” was begun in 1920 and has just been completed though the nine districts will not be physicially harnessed together until 1936 when, it is anticipated, all the generating stations and consumers will be converted to the same “standard frequency,” and every comer of the United Kingdom will be able to tap abundant and cheap electric cur-
rent.
And the Americans arrived at an opportune moment, for the "grid" as a transmission system is now complete, has solved all its numerous legal problems, and has had its first big breakdown. All of which will prove extremely interesting to the former DePauw man. According to Lilienthal, one of the problems facing the T. V. A. is that of linking together both public and private companies in a mutually harmonious system beneficial to the
public.
He will find that the British have achieved something far more com-
plicated than that.
Private companies engaged in the production and sale of electric power in Great Britain are divided into two big groups one consisting of 13 big i wholesalers enjoying, for the most jiart, perpetual franchises, and the other consisting of a lot of small companies doing a local retail business. Despite an immense amount of complaint from company solicitors, these two groups with very di- I verse interests have been firmly combined and told to behave them-
selves.
The aim of the "grid” is to reduce the number of generating stations from 584 rin -9261 to, eventually, about 60 all of which will be topnotch low-cost stations so interconnected that when one gives out, the current flows without interruption from another. These stations are to lie connected by 4.000 miles of main transmission lines. About 2,894 miles carry 132,000 volts, the others 66,000 and 33,000 volts. By 1935 the “grid” will be loaded to 70 per cent of its capacity, and by 1910 it will reach 100 per cent when Hie output of electricity, it is estimated, will be 25,000.00.000 units, by that time the system will have
