string of ladder witnesses to the
stand In Hauptmann's trial for the
kidnaping and murder of Bab
Charles A. Lindbergh, Jr., and added
to their tracing a final conclusion
that the ladder came from Haupt
mann's home.
Acknowledging that he had exam
ined an upright from the ladder
known as "rail 16," Koehler said:
"1 found nail holes In the attlo
Joists corresponded and the grain of
the wood was the same as the board
there."
The board ha referred to was an
exhibit In the evidence. It came from
the attlo of Hauptmann's Bronx
home and had been next to the place
from which the state charges the lad
der upright was sawn.
Defense Piqued
Defense pique at the testimony was
manifested by Frederick A. Pope of
defense counsel. He leaped up.
"He Is not qualified," he cried.
"We say there Is no such animal
known among men as a wood expert."
Justice Thomas W. Trench ard dis
agreed, but Informed the defense lt
could cros-examlne Koehler on his
qualifications. Luncheon recess pre
vented this being done Immediately.
Trooper Lewis Bornmann of New
Jersey and two New York police car
penters testified that "rail 16" fitted
Into a space from which a board had
been sawn In Hauptmann's attic.
The nails, they said, could be pushed
Into the relating holes with the fing
ers. Prosecutors feared the defense
fight on Koehler's qualifications. If
prolonged, might delay their case
and prevent tehlr resting until to
morrow, ;
Paper Expert to Testify
There are, the prosecutors said,
some more witnesses to be heard. One
of them Is expected to be an expert
on paper to Identify cheap writing
paper found In Hauptmann's home
as counterpart of paper used In the
14 ransom notes sent to Colonel
Lindbergh after the kidnaping.
The piece of paper from Haupt
manns home was put Into evidence
today with Inspector John J. Lyons
of the New York police on the stand.
Pope said; "I might cross-examine
Koehler two or three days." but add
ed that much depended upon the di
rect testimony given by the expert.

LIKELY FOR YEAR
WASHINGTON. Jan. 23. () ;
Higher hog prices during the re- !
malnder of the year and the smallest
hog slaughter next summer since 1010 )
were predicted today by the bureau c! i
agricultural economics.
In addition to price advances In
late December and early January,
"further advances are likely during
the remainder of the winter season."
and the level will continue high, due
to the small slaughter, the bureau
declared In Its January report on
world hog and pork prospects.
The report added that "It Is prob
able that exports of pork and lard
this year wilt be the smallest In many
years,' despite the fact that Germany
showed a census of three per cent
fewer hogs In December, 1034, com
pared with December. 1033, and Denmark-showed
a decrease of 10 per
cent during the same period.

Thumb and his bride, Lavlnla, the
Cardiff Giant, the Bearded Lady.
the PiJI Mermaid, the Woolly Horse
and alt the rest of the "natural
oddities with which Barnum stag
gered New York a century ago are
also seen. His splurge from the gro
tesque to the sublime with the
sponsoring of the American debuf
of Jenny Lind. the lovely Swedish
nightingale, at Castle Gardnn. plays
a big part In the picture, with Vir
