Beside Hauptmann stood a man who later was identified as Bernard Melsels, an attorney associated with James M. Fawcett. .attorney for Hauptmann. Assistant District Attorney Andrew C. McCarthy, requested the postpone ment. Magistrate McGilesky granted the request, made a notation on the back of the short affidavit, said "No bail," and Hauptmann was led away. Hauptmann passed to the van thru a crowd of about 400 curious persons who vied for vantage point on both aides of the courthouse. Doubt Klrsh Story A New Jersey state trooper, who has worked on the Lindbergh case from its beginning today character ized as "Just another eccentric" Helen Kirsh, 50, who told Atlantic City police she had heard a discus sion of the Lindbergh kidnaping on the night it took place. The woman was held by Atlantic City police as a material witness after she told them she had heard underworld characters discussing the kidnaping in a small Bide avenue hotel In Atlantic City. The. state trooper. Louis Borman, arrived in At lantic City early today, questioned the woman for more than an hour. He said her story was without foun dation, and suggested that she be given a mental test. Paulln a Romancer v Lieut.' John J. Sweeney, of ' the Newark, N. J., police, termed "a born romancer," George Paulln, Ohio state convict who said he had received a code message telling of the plan to kidnap the Lindbergh baby. Sweeney assisted the state police in checking Paulin's story when the convict was taken to New Jersey two and a half years ago. He said today that police were told of the note then, but said it was not shown to them. However, Amanda Thomas, mail censor at the prison, insisted that Paulin's claim to acquaintanceship with Hauptmann was bona fide. Miss Thomas said the comment by officials in the east that the Paulln angle was "a bust" was an "Insult to my Intelli gence." , It developed today that Paulln car ried a promise of a pardon from Gov ernor George when he came to New Jersey In 1933 to tell authorities of the code note.
