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."

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.

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. Representatives of the three

Mrs. Skiff Hostess
To Club Yesterday
Mrs. Nolan Sfclff was hostess yes
terday afternoon to members of the
Hl-Lo Bridge club. Twelve were In
vited for bridge and the prizes were
received by Mrs. R. G. 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. Oat 1 In, marketing
specialist with the extension service
of the state college, was here to as
sist the producers of all lines of mer
chandising and In the morning con
ference he talked especially along the
line of fundamental principles of
euccessful co-operativo marketing. 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. '
