Filling Man Right on Job This, apparently, had been done bv the filling station operator. oecuriug the nnnie and address of the owner on the automobile license number appearing on the bill," O'Ryan said, "the investigators kept the premises under surveillance. lleoiiu.se of the importance of the case and the danger of the least pos- siiue siip-up, the men acted with cau tion and at 0 a. m. Tuesday morning, Bruno Richard Hauptmann was seen to leave his residence in the automo bile bearing the license which ap peared on the bill and started toward Vorkville with the detectives following. Find Bill on Hauptmann "When his car reached Tremont and Park avenue, the detectives halted Hauptmann's car, directed him to get out, and searching him, found another $20 gold certificate identified as pnrt ot the Ijinubergh ransom. He was immediately taken back to his house and while questioned there admitted pussing the $10 and $20 gold certificates found by tho police. He denied, however, all knowledge of the Lindbergh ransom money. "Meanwhile, a senrch of the place was instituted and a pair of shoes lo cated and identified by the Fordhnra shoe store proprietor was found," riie seai-oh was continued todny, O'ltyan siiiil, and ?i:i,750 was found hidden under the floor of t tic gnrngc and in the snsh of the door. Tells Many Difforent Stories 'From the many conflicting stories Hiiiiptintinn bus told detectives," O'ltyan' said, "we learned thnt he is years old, born in Saxony, Ger mnny, and after serving in the Oer man army, stowed away on the stenm- ihip Washington, nrriving in the United States at New York In 1023. 'He stated he hud odd jobs about tho city until 1020, when he married and made his home in the Bronx. Says He "Played Stocks" "Strangely enough, he explained thnt shortly after the ransom money was paid, he quit working and devoted his time to trading in the stock mar ket. He explained the money .as the result of careful savings and the gold certificates as foresight with word of the supposed inflntion shortly after President Roosevelt took office. 'However, in tracing back to the bank which he stated issued him the gold certificates, we got a blank de nial of each phase of his story. 'Somewhat significant is an admis sion that be had been employed in the neighborhood of the Lindberghs Hopewell home as a carpenter. 'In addition, the detectives have established beyond question that he hnd access to a lumber yard where lumber bearing a peculiar mark sim ilar to that found on the lumber in the ladder, which was found at the scene of the kidnaping, is to be hnd. 'Despite the fact thnt Hauptmann denied thnt he had a criminal record. I have just been advised that . he ad mits he was on pnrole and escnped as a stowaway from Germany to pre vent his return to prison there." An indication of the imminence of further fnr - renehing developments was seen in brief comment from Hoover in response to questions about jurisdiction and chnrgea to be pre ferred against Ilnuptmnnn. "Other things are coming up which will have a bearing on this case, but we can't talk about them now. I'm leaving that all up to General O'Rvnn." O'Ryan specifically refused to an swer a query as to what charge had been filed. "Is this a murder case?" Commis sioner O'Ryan was asked. "It is a case with several phases. Otherwise 1 have no comment. O'Ryan snid he would turn the case over to the Bronx district attorney. An nttache of that office, who was nresent. said with respect to jurisdic tion that "the Bronx will cooperate with New Jersey." In New Jersey, Governor A. Hurry Moore closely identified with the case from its inception said he was Informed extortion charges would be tentatively plnced against the fugitive from Germany until extradition pro ceedincs could start in New Jersey.

ECUT1 Radio Programs WASHINGTON, Sept. 21. UP) Swift moves to prosecute Bernard Richard Hauptmann in a New Jersey state court on a charge of kidnaping and murder in the case ot Chnrles A. Lindbergh, Jr., were indicated toiight by Attorney General Cummings. Obviously pleased at the capture of the suspect, a German alien, after 30 months of unrelenting search by cueral agents and police, the attor ney genernl explained the trial could not be held in a federal court. Iho federal kidnaping statute known as the Lindbergh law would not be effective in this case, Cum mings told reporters, because of its enactment after the abduction of the child. "New Jersey has a law. enacted In 1031, that provides a maximum of life imprisonment for kidnaping,' he snid. "That state has a death penalty for first degree murder murder that Is premeditated. Its statute calls for life Imprisonment for second degree murder." The attorney general explnined that no final statement could be made at this time regarding the plnns for bringing ITnuptmnnn to trial, since conversations hnd not yet been held with other federal and state officials. "Kvery last side of his record will he investigated." he went on. "1 imagine the investigation will take several weeks. We will try to find out all that he has been doing since he came to this country and before." Ileferring to the New Jersey mur der law, he snid that the first degree penalty might be invoked if it could he proved that the homicide occurred In the commission of a robbery or burglary. Such proof, especially in the Lind bergh case, would be difficult to ob tain, he said, adding: 'Of course we may get a confes sion." FRIDAY'S PROGRAMS KORE.
