"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.

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.

It wns NOT a one-man job. There

The handwriting on the ransom notes
