Newspaper Page TextT fg'ge FonrtSca "JAFSIE" HINTS JIT JTEW YORK, Sept. SI. (U.PJ Dr. John F. Condon, 74-year-old retired te-hoolmaster who as "Jafsle" passed (he $50,000 Lindbergh ransom money to man In St. Raymond' cemetery, today indicated that further startling flevelopments may be expected soon. Vague as to whether he had iden tified Bruno B. Hauptmann as the ban who received the money, Dr. Condon aaid that more of the ransom money than the $13,750 already re covered could be found. He gave the impression that Hauptmann was just (he beginning of the "big break" in the case. After spending the night with police ud federal officials Dr. Condon had few hours rest and then got out of bed to see reporters. Seated in an armchair on the porch of bis Bronx home, the amiable edu cator showed plainly he was pleased with developments. "I feel vindicated, but as a matter of fact I felt vindicated from the very beginning," he said. "Since I entered the case I have spent every day and very night seeking clues. What I got from officials yesterday was only soothing balm." By this, Dr. Condon apparently meant he was confident that further developments would prove that in his role as "Jofsie," he negotiated with the actual abductors, and not with ei tortionista with no actual connection with the crime itself. Dr. Condon said the stories that he tad tossed the money over the ceme tery wall were erroneous. "I actually handed the money to the man," he explained. "He stepped up to a hedge and I got a clear view of him. He was crouching down. But it is not true that I did not see him." Dr. Condon was asked whether he Identified Hauptmann last night as the man who received the money. "I never was positive" he answered. "Did you say that If you ever heard the voice of the man who took the money, you would remember it?" "If I heard the voice under the same tJrcumstancea I would know." He said the man be rowed out to meet in a boat during his negotiations was aot Hauptmann. He also explain ed that he had been approached at virions times by women dnring hit negotiations, but added that none of them resembled Mrs. Hauptmann. STORY CONTINUED FROM PASE f) ft query, and it wai repeated. He ktuwered, "Tea."

"A friend gave me nil his effect to take care of until he conies berk from the other side." - "fs he coming back?" "No, he died in Oermnny." "Did yon know it was money?"

Inspector Sullivan, aroused, de manded to know what happened to all of that money. Then Hauptmann aaid "$14,000." "What other business have yon boen in?" "Playing Wall street since 1030." "How have you made out?" "Sometimes auccessful; lately los ing." "How much have you lost?" "Practically even." Plays Stock Market "What waa the stock you bought?" "American waterworks."

THE EUGENE REGISTER-GUARD T PORTLAND, Sept. 21 OP) Trad ing in the butter market continued fairly steady although here and there waa a note of weakness aa a result of the recent errotic price trend here. Butterfat holds firm with con tinued good demand for ic, cream and eubstitutes. Trading in the egg market was firm locally for fresh arrivals, al though there continued suggestions of weakness for Btorage stuff. The latter were becoming almos't strong enough to Btund alone. Strength of the local cheese trade was suggested with some of the smaller operators asking a fractional advance from their previous . low marks. All live poultry was showing a good tone locally, with ducks especially sought as a result of an acute short age. Dressed turkeya retained their prevtoua good demantf and price. ! Market for country killed hogs was a trifle easier with some slight carryover suggested toward the woek- end. Veal, beef and lambB were in clined to show strength. While local supplies of - lettuce were increased although still quite short and high priced, a carload from Salinas, Calif., was reported due here. Local lettuce growers have been able to command a good profit up to this time. There was another erratic swing of cantaloupe prices here during the lost 24 hours with $1.50-1.75 gen erally obtainable for top quality, although reports suggest an even higher price for a few. Potato market was a weak affair and price shading was suggested. Grupe markets were about steady but a trifle slow for both table and wine aorts. PORTLAND PRICES PORTLAND, Sept. 21.

STORY (CONTINUED FROM PAGE I) in his office, expressed the view thnt "it was not a one-mnn job," "This mnn is not a chiseler in this case," Sullivan said. "Things are developing rnpirlly, but I am not at liberty to talk. As the cnsf now stands, if Hauptmann was not actual ly present at the time of the kidnap ing, he had a hand in the machinery. It wns NOT a one-man job. There are others in it." Hauptmann was taken late todny from the Bronx county jail to the office of Bronx District Attorney Samuel J. Foley for further ques tioning. In Washington, Attorney General Cummings reiterated a previous statement that the handwriting of Hauptmann on his automobile driver's license application and that on the Lindbergh ransom notes were similar. The handwriting on the ransom notes and that on a note left on the baby s crib were said to he the same.
