because of lock, of revenue, but be
cause of vast and extravagance,"
said oovernor Martin.
"While the poor are crying out for
relief and our schools begging for
help, we wltneas the apectacle of many
boards and commlulons collecting
and bquanderlng thouaanda of needed
dollars in support of greedy and In
competent politicians.
The aim of House Bill No. 1 la to
correct some of the abuaea, yet we
rind the beneficiaries of the exlatlng
Indefensible system flooding the leg
islature with protest against Its
passage. The fees paid to the fish
and game commission are not paid
by a coterie of cushion chair sports
men, members of some small league
that assumes to speak for the hunt
ers and fishermen of this state; they
are paid by thousands of sportsmen
who are not Interested In politics,
but in the protection and preserva
tion of our wild life."
politicians Hit
"Last night we had the spectacle of
politicians appearing before one of
our committees for the purpose of
defeating house bill No. 1 politicians
who have been milking the fund dur
ing the past four years. These gen
tlemen defended their action but of
fered not one word In Justification
of their conduct.
"The fish and gama funds must,
and will, go to the propagation of
fish and game; they will go to foed
the fish, not the politicians. The day
of politics, waste and extravange Is
past. You and I aro pledged to cor
rect all such abuses. I propose to
keep that pledge.
"I have no desire to divert the
funds of any board or commission,
I aim only to conserve them for In
tended use. I Insist, however, that
the free and uncontrolled spending
of such funds muat cease; that sue If
expenditures should be controlled by
a higher authority; that the require
menta of all such boards and com-
mlaslons should be disclosed In ad
vance and properly budgeted. In -no
other way can waste and extrava
gance be prevented. I hope to pro
mote economy through orderly meth
ods and. In the name of the suffering
taxpayers, appal to you for co-op-,
eratlon. May I have It?"
Mum on Shakcup
No direct comment wos obtainable
from the governor' office regarding
his reported Intention Xo Immedi
ately ask for the resignations of the
members of the commission who have
been opposing his program and per
mitting employes of the commission
to do the aamo at the expenso of
the game fund.
Out of the dim, dark past legisla
tive history rises the statute under
which the governor la reported to bo
ready to proceed with his houne
cleanlng an enactment of 1013 by
which the governor la authorized to
remove members of boards, commis
sions and the like over which ho
holds the appointing power, without
regard to tenure, with or without
cause.
Members of the present commission
who would be affected by the ouster

Irving B. Vtnlng, Ash 1 find; Carl D.

Might Reinstate One
Lobby gossip has it that at least
one member of the commission might
be reinstated In a reorganisation.
Conforming with the assertion in
his message that he "haa no deslro

commission" and only alma "to con
serve them for Intended use," the re

will earmark all funds affected for
such use aa they are Intended but
will require that they be deposited

examining question about an In
tended trip to Germany after pay
ment of the futile $50,000 Lindbergh
ransom .was:
Phrase fn Notes.
"Oh. that Is planned for over a
year already."
Attorney General David T. Wllenta
selred a sheaf of kidnap note and
read from two of them these phrases;
"This kidnaping was planned for
a year already."
And:
"This kidnaping was prepared for
a year already."
Hauptmann was still undergoing
cross-examination as luncheon recess
halted his trial for kidnaping and
murdering Baby Charles A. Lind
bergh, Jr.
The "year already" phrases were
the highlight of a morning of cross-
questions about his personal habits
and financial transactions during
the period between payment of the
Lindbergh ransom April 3. 1932, and
his arrest on September 19, 1934.
Denies Hills In Phonograph.
Wllenta brought In the name of
Frits Hnhn, restaurant man. and
Hauptmann denied queries designed
to make him admit that Hahn had
seen large packages of money con
cealed In Hauptmann's phonograph.
He also dented ever telling Mrs. Hahn
that he was giving Mrs. Hauptmann
$1000 for a trip to Germany.
He denied the prosecutor's charge
that he had signaled Mrs. Haupt
mann In the courtroom several days
ago so that she shouted "you are
lying!" to a state witness,
He admitted spending 13 to 15
of the Lindbergh ransom bills which
he said Isndor Flsch had left him,
for living expenses, and said that
he had Intended to send the balance,
less $3000 Flsch owed him, to Flsch's
relatives.
Took Florida Trip.
He admitted that after the time
of the ransom, which he denied col
lecting, he took a trip to Florida,
his wife quit her Job and took a
trip to Germany, and he purchased
several expensive articles, such as a
canoe, a radio and pair of field
glasses.
Hauptmann appeared at a loss for
words when Wtlentr. brought up the
similarity of his "year already"
phrase with the ransom note phrases.
How ran I say It otherwise?'
asked Hauptmann.
"Well, you con say 'planned for
more than a year,' 'planned already
for a year.' 'planned a year ago'.'
"How you would say," Hauptmann
retorted.
Edward J. Rellly. chief defense
counsel, leaped to his feet and
charged that Wllenta was trying to
leave an unjust Inference with the
Jury.
Wllenta started his questioning
with a disarming manner. Haupt
mann gripped his hands together and
gave his answers in a monofons.
Prosecutor Speeds Vp.
Tli a questions were shot out with
Increasing speed In much the man
ner of yesterday when the prose
cutor wore Hauptmann down, ex
cited him and roused him to open
anger with sly queries leading to
a climactic shout of "Lies! Lies!'
which drew from Hauptmann a re
turn of "Stop thatl" and "you lied,
tool"
The state Indicated It had an Im
portant rebuttal witness to say that
Hauptmann was mysterious and eva
sive about money in his home.
The man accused of kidnaping and
murdering Baby Charles A. Lind
bergh. Jr., was made to answer nu
merous prying questions about his
home snd his hnhlts, and especially
about a phonograph In which At
torney General Pavtd T. Wllenta
hinted much money was kept.
Claim Money Seen.
Isn't It a fact that during some
of those months, particularly after
April 3. 1933, that you opened that
Vlctrola. and when you opened It
In the presence of Frtta Hahn, the
restaurant man I spoke to you about
yesterday, that there were in that
Vlctrola right on top two envelopes
abou eleven Inches long, maybe 14
Inches long, a few Inches thick, of
money, two packages, two envelope?"
Wllentr a.Ked. "Is It not a fact?"
