"The Eagles had 47,000 men In endce," he aald, "and the members at home backed them with equally patriotic effort. The F. O. E. was the flrat fraternity to create a fund for paying a gratuity to the de pendents of men who died in serv ice. That fund was vtarted less than three weeks after the first United States troop landed in France. The Eagles not in service contributed 10 cents a month until the fund amounted to $1,800,000. Out of that has been paid 91,000 to the depen dent of every member, in good standing In 1017-18, who died or was killed during the war or who has died since . a result of his service." , The fraternity also paid the dues of members serving Uncle Sam, Mr. Douglas said, ao that their depen dents at home would continue to be entitled to the benefits paid by the order. The speaker pointed out that since the founding of the frat ernity In 1898, it has paid out a total of 67.0O0.0000 In sick, .medi cal, and death benefits. "Who has a better right than the Eagles to defend the country against the destructive forces that are now attacking from within?" the speak er went on.

Hauck, Hunterdon county prosecutor, apoke for the state. Rellly told the Jurors that "despite the position and the prestige and the wealth of tha distinguished family who find themselves In the position here of being bereaved, the state must prove it caa according to the law and "not guess work, not inference, not maybes and not speeches." Mate's cue Hit RetUy attacked the pattern of the state's case. 'This la the crime of the century and It ia the worst crime and the lowest type of crime ever committed to my knowledge," the defense attor ney said, "but it is not the defendant who la guilty of it." He mildly ridiculed the state's technical evidence. "This case has come down now," he aald, "in my opinion to this, common, ordinary horse sense, and against that we are confronted with a lot of technicians and expert who at so much a day give us their opinion of things." Rellly told the Jury he respected Colonel Lindbergh, that he marched In the parade of welcome when the colonel returned from hla fame-mak ing flight to Paris, but he added: Bruno Richard Hauptmann was nerer on those grounds." He refer red to the Lindbergh estate at Hopewell, N. J., from which the baby was stolen. Master Mind and Fool j Now," Rellly said, "they would ; have you in one breath believe that this man Hauptmann was a master mind, that he planned this him self, and the next minute they would have you believe that he waa the worst fool In the world, that he was dumb, that he didn't know anything; he would wear gloves making a ladder so his fingerprints wouldn't be left behind; and he would alt an hour and & half talk ing to Condon with his face ex posed. In one the careful master mind, In the other the perfect fool. Now you cannot carry water on both shoulders. Later, he aald: "As we go through It you will see that this case has been pieced together as you would write a scenario, but It Is not founded on honest fact. The first thing you have got to decide when you go Into your Jury room is this, how in God's name did Hauptmann know anything about the Lindbergh home. Ignores Handwriting "I don't care about handwriting. I don't care anything about wood, nor do I care about the ransom money for which this man stands Indicted in the Bronx and for which he has to stand trial there. Nor am I going to allow you to pull the chestnuts out of the fire for Bronx county and say, 'Well, because he had the money he must be guilty or something, therefore we will send htm away for something.' mmf ff "Camels are made from finer, more expensive tobaccos - yS JrUo O i jtfjf jQt Turkish and Domestic - than any other popular brand." j (tTO j (Signed) R.

Opening for the state, surround ed by nearly 400 mute exhibits and heard by the gray-faced, worried defendant, Prosecutor Hauck told the Jury: 8ays Bute's Cae Proved "The stats of New Jersey con tends that they hart proven not only beyond a reasonable doubt, but conclusively and overwhelming ly that Bruno Richard Hauptmann Is guilty of murder In the first degree, that he is guilty of the murder of the Infant, Charles A. Lindbergh. Jr." He pointed out at once that the state had established the corpus delectl. He recited the details of the theory which he declared the state proved. that Hauptmann entered the nursery window of the Lindbergh home by meana of a ladder, yanked the sleep ing baby from its crib, started back down the ladder with It and fell to the ground as the ladder broke. It was then, he contended, the baby suf fered a fractured skull which caused 1U death. Charge Fall Caused Dmth "We have proven to you conclusive ly," he said, "that that fall caused the baby'a death when it received the fractured skull which was of such an extent that it caused instantaneous death." Later, he said: "You can infer that that crash that Colonel Lindbergh heard was the very crashing of that very ladder outside of the nursery window." i Colonel Charlea A. Lindbergh, fath er of the child, testified he heard a noise which sounded like a falling crate. "You can infer that the defendant In leaving the premises with the child realizing that the baby was dead, yanked that garment off the baby and at that time that thumbguard waa dropped on the premises." Kauck was referring to the baby's sleeping suit which was sent to Colonel Lindbergh by the kidnaper, and to Its thumbguard which had been tied over the garment and which Betty Gow. nurse, said she found a hundred yards from, the house a month after the crime. Death on Premises Proved You can equally Infer that after that little curly headed baby's gar ment was yanked from the body and the thumbguard was dropped he (Hauptmann) hurried on to his car. but It waa not until he found the first safe and convenient place from the Lindbergh home that he went into the woods and there hurriedly scooped a grave and hurried on to the Bronx. And that Is proof that the baby died on the premises be cause if the baby died elsewhere It couldn't be burled so near the Lind bergh home." The state had to prove the murder was in Hunterdon county where Hauptmann Is on trial. The body was found In Mercer county. "I will say to you that Bruno Rich ard Hauptmann who slta in thi.i courtroom did all of these things." To this Hauck added, "we have shown you by the evidence that Bruno Rich ard Hauptmann planned this crime a long time." EDUGATI E Camp commanders and educational ad-isers of the Medford district have returned to their camps, following a two-day educational conference held here Friday and Saturday. Dr. J. B. Grifflng. civil educatlonil adviser of the ninth corps area, wm here to confer with the officers and educators on. camp problems.
