tenant In the field artillery during
the World war and when he referred
to the Eagle war record he spoke
with fiery eloquence.
"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. "We have proved our
patriotism time and time again."

SUMS UP KIDNAP
AS ANJNSIDE JOB
(Continued from Page One)
Anthony M. 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.'

"Colonel Lindbergh was stabbed
In he back by the disloyalty of
those who worked for nim and oe
spite the fact that ha courageously
believed that there was no disloy
alty in the servants' quarters, I say
now that no one could gee into that
house unless the information was
supplied by those who worked for
Colonel Lindbergh."
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."
