Chats With
Parents
CHATS WITH
By Alice Judson Peale
A boy of 10 Is afraid to go up and
down the stairs alone. He lives on
the third floor of un apartment
house which has no elevator. Al
ways an adult must accompany him
whenever he leaves or returns to his
home.
This is extremely humiliating to
him. He Is most unhappy about it,
but, rather than go -alone, he will
beg the maid or the grocery boy to
go with him.
He learns well at school. At home
he is affectionate and obedient.
Only an observant person would no
tice that he is trying, too constantly
to please, that his manner at times
Is anxious, hurried and uncertain.
His curious fear of going up and
down stairs alone began about six
months ago.
At that time his parents did ev
erything they could to dispel it. First
they treated it lightly, trying to
laugh it away. Then they reminded
him how unreasonable It was (a
thing which he himself knew only
too well). They promised him a bi
cycle If he would go downstairs alone
for a week. They asked hi mto tell
how his fear - began. They begged
him to recall what had caused it.
They Ignored it and hoped that it
would disappear.
But it did not disappear. The par
ents are now doing what it is advis
able to do In the case of such strange,
morbid fears they are sending him
to a psychiatrist.
It is hoped that the doctor's
trained skill will be able to unravel
the subtle origins of the trouble,
that he will be able to give the child
such Insight as he needs and effect
a readjustment of the deep lying
emotional difficulties behind this
single symptom.
EACH SOVIET CITIZEN TOLD
TO PURCHASE OAS MASK
MOSCOW (P) A campaign to equip
every soviet citizen with a gas mask
is in full swing here In furtherance
of the government's efforts to pre
pare the population against possible
Invasion.
Every state institution emphasizes
to its employes that each worker
should have a gas mask and, through
the agency supplying them, makes
them available at cost of produc
tion. One type costs $3.00 and the
other about (5.50.
Regular Instruction in the use of
the mask Is carried on at every fac
tory, office and farm.
Recently all Moscow tramway em
ployes motormen, conductors and
switchmen wore the face covering
for three hours to the mocking de
light of passengers In their cars.
POLISH CITIES USE CADDLES
IN STRIKE ON LIGHT KATE
WARSAW UP) Tallow condles and
old fashioned kerosene lamps have
come into their own again in many
Polish cities which are boycotting
electricity in order to force reduced
rates.
Piotrkow, near Warsaw, with some
40,000 inhabitants, was the first to
start the strike. All movies were
closed and the entire population re
turned to candles and kerosene.
Tomoszow, a large factory town
in the Lodz province, as well as
KallBz and Premysl have also gone
on strike. Czenstochowa, with more
than 100,000 Inhabitants, Is about to
follow suit and Vilno ia also sonsld
erlng a boycott.
Piotrkow and Kallsz. where the
strike Is complete, are almost in
darkness.

SAILOR AGAIN
QUIZZED IN
KIDNAP CASE
(Continued from Page One)
window sill of the room where she
slept with the Johnson's infant son.
Shots were exchanged and the In
truder fled. Maiden was arrested and
identified by both nurse and grounds
keeper.
He was fingerprinted and the prints
brought at once to Hopewell because
of the similarity of the methods of
tho Lindbergh kidnaper and the man
at the Johnson home, both of whom
raised ladders to nursery windows.
Suspected Servants Freed
In the morning bulletin from the
Lindbergh house it was said that
Paul and Kate Engstenberg, servants
who left their place of employment
in Franklin Park the day after the
kidnaping, had made complete state
ments and had been allowed to re--turn
to their new Jous in Ardmore,
Pa.
"Most of the statements they have
made have been checked and found
correct," said Col. H. Norman
Schwarzkopf, superintendent of state
police. "They are not being held In
connection with tile cose."
"Johnson is being questioned this
morning," Schwarzkopf said. "His
statement Indicates that he had been
to Hopewell several times and it Is
desired to take him over the ground
to verify the statement. His status
has not changed and he is not under
arrest by the New Jersey authorities
of any charge but Is still held on a
detainer lodged against him by the
Immigration authorities." -
Later Mr. Johnson at South Plain
field identified Maiden as the man
who held him up in the Johnson
homo Feb. 2 and escaped with about
$3000 In cash and Jewelry. John
son told police he was convinced
the man who attempted to enter
tho nursery this morning sought to
kidnap his youngest daughter.
Maiden also was Identified by F.
M. Barr, who, with Mrs. Barr, was
robbed of jewels valued at several
thousand dollars Jan. 6, at their
home in Woodslde avenue, adjoin
ing the Flalnfield country club.
Work on New Theory
A new theory set detectives to
work yesterday. It is that the ab
ductors fooled pursuit by substitut
ing the child for another.
The police think It possible they
took the child to a family which al
ready had. one of the same age. The
custodians of the Lindbergh Infant
would then have to send their own
child away.
That Is why two detectives from
Newark were In Washington last
night checking passport records on
the chance the child may have been
sent to a foreign country.
The detectives also visited Balti
more on a tip the custodians' real
child may have been sent to Europe
on the Baltimore Mall liner City of
Baltimore, which departed for Havre
the day after the kidnaping. Ten
children were on the ship, the line
officials said, and one was about the
Lindbergh baby's age.
Meanwhile the pursuit of countless
leads and tips went on. An alarm
was sent out some one reported he
saw (three men drive through Key
port, N. J., with a hole-punched box
from which cries of a baby came.
In Pocatello. Idaho, Ignace Blaus
teln recanted his story that he drove
the automobile for the kidnapers.
Two persons out of a steady stream
of men and women seen to enter and
leave the office of Police Captain
Henry Gauthler in Jersey City were
recognized as Johansen Junge, friend
of Johnson, and the sailor's brother,
who lives In Hartford, Conn.
They left after several hours. Po
lice, however, refused to discuss the
incident, or even to admit that Junge
and Johnson were questioned.
