' Wiientz argued for admission of the ladder as evidence: "We have proved that this ladder is in the same condition as it was when found on the Lindbergh estate,” he said. "Certainly there have been changes in this ladder—we have explained tiiat the changes were necessary for the purposes of this investigation.” The kidnap ladder was finally admitted into evidence hy Justice Trenchard.

Saw Hauptmann Near Lindv Estate
DEFENSE WILL ATTACK VERACUT OF WOODSMAN WITNESS
FLEMINGTON. N. J., Jan. 22 1 UP- Millard Whited, a Sourlands lumberman, today declared he saw Bruno Richard Hauptmann near the Lindbergh home shortly before Charles A. Lindbergh Jr., was kidnaped and slain. The lank, gangling woodsman repeated the testimony he gave when Hauptmann was extradited to New Jersey from the Bronx. The defense has promised to produce witnesses who will attack Whited’s reputation for veracity.

FLEMINGTON, N. J„ Jan. 22, 'UPi State Trooper Ltwis J. Bommann was called as the first of today’s witnesses in Bruno Richard Hauptmann’s trial on charges of murdering Charles A. Lindbergh, Jr. He identified a chisel which he said he found on the Lindbergh estate the morning after the kidnaping. The state offered it in evidence. Frederick Pope of defense counsel objected to the testimony on the ground t was irrelevant and imma-
terial.
The chisel was admitted into evi-
dence.
Attorney General David T. Wiientz showed Bornmann the ladder found outside the nursery window. The witness said he had sawed one of the uprights in two in the course of his investigation. The piece of white lumber nailed to th<’ ladder was applied by Arthur Koehler, government wood expart. Bronmann said, to keep it intact. The ladder was thereupon offered in evidence. Pope objected on the same grounds that the defense had employed against previous attempts to introduce it. The defense maintains the ladder is not in the same condition it was in when found on the Lindbergh estate. "The ladder, one of its sections that is, has been cut in two," Pope
added.
Pope said the ladder might be admitted if its history was traced, and it were shown the ladder was not changed materially in its movements to the state police training school at Wilhurtha, ami to Washington. “We make a stronger objection yet there has been shown no connection )ii tween (he ladder and this de-

BISMARCK, N. D.. Jan. 22, 'UP' —Announcement hy state supreme court that it will rule Thursday on a writ designed to unseat Gov. Thomas Moodie gained a reprieve last night for the harried executive in efforts to oust him by impeachment. The court’s announcement came just in time to halt presentation to tnc state senate of a resolution of impeachment voted last week by the lower legislative house. House leaders immediately ordered the action upneld. It will be presented Friday if the court decision is in Moodie’s favor, they said. Opposition to Moodie, a Democrat, ostensibly is based on a contention that he had not been a resident of North Dakota for five years preceding his election, as required by law. Ho voted in Minneapolis in 1930 while employed on a Minneapolis newspaper, but contends he was only temporarily absent from North Dakota, wtmre he maintained legal residence. The underlying motive of his opponents is in the political upheaval which followed unseating last summer of former Gov. W’illiam Danger, nonpartisan League leader, who was
