Auto Changes Plates An automobile containing ' three men and a baby for which New Eng land police were searching stopped at Weatherileld, Mass., and changed li cense plates. A letter mailed from Hartford to Mrs. Lindbergh was not Intercepted by police and they said today they knew nothing of its contents. A rumor spread today that Miss Gow had "confessed" but .this was officially denied at the governor's oi flee In Trenton and state police re iterated they had exonerated her. The Englewood chief of police and a sergeant went to Hartford to assist In questioning Johnson. A detective there said he believed the Informa tion would "crack" the case. New York state police sought a ra dio station which broadcast a general call saying. "Lindbergh baby safe.". A Chicago man signed a swora statement giving a Niagara Falls, N. Y., address where he said the baby was held. No such address was found. The motheT of the boy kidnaped at, Ntles, Ohio, a few hours after tha Lindbergh baby was. taken, sen Mrs. Lindbergh, Physicians : warned that Mrs. Lind bergh might suffer a breakdown un-. less Bhe gets sleep. Nurse Betty Gow cabled to her mother in- Qlasgow, .Scotland, to "oheer-up." , GOV. MOORE MOttBFUL . TRENTON, -N. J., Mar. 6 W) After conferring with police officials of ten sttttas and the federal government Governor A. Harry Moore announced today that it was--their belief and hope that - the kidnaped Lindbergh baby would soon be restored un harmed to Its parents. Governor Moore said It was the general opinion of the -assembled po lice officials, who came to the con ference from - as far away as Chicago,"! that the kidnaping was the work of amateurs and that they would soon realize their only chance of escape was to place the baby In some safe place and notify the authorities. Issues Statement . The governor's statement, issued some time after the conference was concluded, follows: - "It is the general opinion of those who have given the fullest considera tion to the known facts in tho kid-, naplng crime that it has baon com-; mltted by amateurs and not by pro fessional criminals. It bears none of, the earmarks of those practiced, in crime, even though the result has been successfully achieved. "Police of every state In the union and the long arm of the federal gov ernment are united In the search for the criminals and the restoration of the child to Its parents. It Is our belief that with this knowledge the kidnapers will -soon recognize that their only hope for successful flight and safety lies in their giving up the child by some method that will as sure its safe and uninjured, return. So long as, they -retain the child, they are in. constant danger." Its destruction - would enormously increase their guilt, their -danger, and their certain ultimate retribution to 01 nis coasi-wiae organization in giv the law and avenging Justice. lnB advice as to commodities and "It is our belief and hope that they varieties at planting time, suggesting will Immediately deposit the child in what consumers ask for. when they some safe place, and by prompt no-' want lt and in what quantities.

SIMILAR I,A1HEKS FOUND NEW YORK, March 6 () The Evening Post today said that one of its reporters had discovered an abun dance of ladders of similar wood and construction as that used by the kid napers of the Lindbergh baby. The reporter saw the ladders In the Consolidated Shipyards at Morris Heights, the Bronx, where, the paper said, the yacht of Thomas M. Lamont, on which Henry (Red) Johnson was formerly employed, as, a sailor, has been laid up for repair. Johnson is held for questioning by Hartford, Conn., police. KENKWEI) GltlM.lNG DIE HARTFORD, Conn., March 6 () Henry Red) Johnson, Englewood, N. J., sailor detained last night for questioning in connection with thf Lindbergh, baby kidnaping. was brought before county authorities shortly before noon today for a re newed grilling. Dozens of questions were put to the sailor by state's attorney Hugh M. Alcorn and County Detective Ed ward J. Hickey, who became noted lor their prosecution of Gerald W. Chapman, who was hanged for slay ing a New Britain policeman. For etght hours after Johnson was brought in the grilling continued without respite. Then a recess was called for a few hours and the ques tioning resumed. The officials were attempting to learn how Johnson, a friend of Miss Betty Gow, nursemaid for the Lind bergh baby, happened to be driving a green coupe said to resemble a car reported used by the kidnapers, how he happened to be in Hartford, and how a milk bottle happened to be In the rumble seat. , There was no Intimation from the questioners, however, as to what if any progress they were making.

VPT AAT "PITRT TP MARKET FOR. . THIS VALLEY (Continued From Page One) . sible ' locations, the gathering tem porarily adopted an offer from the Union OH company for construction of an open market on the company's property on East Adams avenue at the Junction, of the Island City road. The final arrangements were left to r temporary committee of five. The building will be constructed for six stalls, it is planned. Market master problems, price scales, standardiza tion and like problems will be worked out by the governing heads. 1 The chamber of commerce at La Grande and Blue Mountain grange assisted by the city government of that year, began the public market movement in out until the present year the growers themselves have not definitely decided to un dertake the movement. President Harry McK Inlay yesterday sent word to the growers that the chamber would assist financially the first six montns of the market's operation, to tho end tbat some substantial por tion of the $160,000 annually sent out of La Grande for fruits and vege tables may be retained in this county. Other phases of marketing are ex pected to be developed just as quick ly as possible. Barreling of Fruits Discussed Barreling and freezing of surplus fruits and vegetables are .being con sidered. The barreling process Was reported as "inexpensive in operation and would take off the dally surplus that local consumers and retailers could not handle and yet give sub stantial returns to the growers. Carlot shipments will be planned for. Under past experiences, over production "of certain vegetable com modittes was a common practice taut tho surplus was not sufficient to give out of town buyers carlot supplies of one grade and kind. Ray Wilson, Pa cific Fruit company representative in 1 tnls district, offered the oo-operatlon 1 uimu wits wuiut uuyura win nave recognized head to deal with and a definite supply coming on. j Several Interested persons declared yesterday's meoUng to portend tre mendous development In truck busi ness and small fruits as soon as the various avenueB of marketing are de veloped. That the public market has been welcomed by consumers, pro ducers and retailers In all cities of 10,000 or over where tried Is gen erally admitted, and the chief prob lem before tho organization formed yesterday Is to overcome the deficit in population at La Grande with the customary minimum., With perfec tion' of barreling and possible freez ing facilities, producers are confident thesa handicaps can be overcome. . The success of the Eugene market was often referred to. In that case ithe market began in a small way oaoxea ny Kugene business men fi nances and housewife patronage. Grocery men are reported In entire accord. The Institution has had a marvelous growth and is the means of what its management ' calls the .creation of thousands of dollars to producers that previously went out of Lane county. A committee consisting of Roy Gekeler, temporary chairman; John Harris, of Union; G. G. Stacklnnd, of Cove, and F. W. King, of May rarx, was autnorizcd to draw up by laws patterned after like organiza tions elsewhere, outline definite plans and call a meeting of 'all producers as quickly as possible so that order may bo established in planting of produce 1 With the ultimate purpose of equallz- 1 ing production and broadening vari eties and commodities for the first, year. Cove, Union, La Grande, May Park, Fruitdale and- Mt; Glen producers were represented at the meeting. Orange Agricultural Section , In the absence of J. A. Nice, of Wolf creek, master of the Unloh County Pomona grange, Harry O.; Avery presided over the section ar ranged for" members of agricultural committees from the several grange subordinates in this county. The meeting was very well attended and tho work of the session was summed up in a number of resolutions which those present are to take back and present to their own granges. The first of these was a recommendation that the subordinate and pomona groups do all in their power to figtfl the referendum on' olco and similar products. The second resolution called for an exchange list for the granges. A third resolution calls for the appointment of a committee to consider present wheat conditions, and they In turn to discuss the prob lem of weed control with the county court. It was reported that white top has been found in a few places In the volley. The group also ex pressed gratification at the work done by tho Union County Dairy Herd Im provement association in the survey of herd sires, and pledged their sup port. Each one present was also asked to report to the organizations which they represented the matter of the co-operative market, which In being so vigorously discussed at present. The Cherry Group "This particular section of the northwest, (and by that was meant tho Grande Hondo valley) Is the best section anywhere for the raising of sweet cherries for the maraschino In dustry," so said an authority at the conference of sweet cherry growers yesterday. To prove his point he stated that after having been stored for a few years, either by pickling or freezing, samples of cherries from dif ferent localities are tested by canncrs and others. This Is done by piercing each cherry with a needle. The cher ry grown under irrigation Is found to be a bit softer, while locally grown cherries are more firm and will re main on the needle for a longer time. This is the standard test. This state-1 ment was brought out In a very prac tical and a very thorough discussion of marketing problems and possibil ities.

Porrester, high; discussed the matter, under the lead ership of T. C. Hefty of the fcove, the tendency throughout being closer co-ordination of the three groups for tho mutual benefit pf all. A. W. Leffel of La Orande, A. A. Anties of Cove and P. M. Littler of Union, brought back reports from the recent meeting of the Northwest association which was held at The Dalles, and these reports contained food fbr'much discussion. Mr. Hefty was authority for tho remark that to tho cherry growers themselves, this conference was of great' benefit because of Its practical character and would surely result In better local marketing con ditions. The Morning Program There were about 100 men and women from all parts of tho valley, present yesterday and they assembled In one group In the morning for a program with specialists as the chief speakers and also T. C. Hefty of Cove. Oeorge C.

R. D, Monahan who Is a sales repre sentative of some of the associations of tho valley discussed at length the marketing of the sweet cherries and gave something of the present out look. Mr. Hefty reported on the Cove and Union cherry pools, two groups which have functioned quite success fully. The dlscusslous following these talks were exceedingly helpful. The county agricultural agent, Har ry O. Avery, who was largely Instru mental In the success of the confer ence was quite gratified over the out come. The question of having a con ference for the consideration ot mar keting problems alone was rather an experiment here, and particularly since It took the place of the annual economic conference which main tained here for a numher of years. Tho condition of roads in many parts of the valley kept men and women at home who have been habitually pres ent at such conferences, and while the figures regarding attendance look small In comparison with other years, the attendance was really very good. The spirit of the sections was very good and those who were most In terested believe that much good will be the result, they say. ' BoeMr Mm f Colli (:W m. m. Mrs. F. L. Tribe, second; and Mrs. C. L.
