"Do not bring cops," the note r.hlch was unsigned said. "Jf you do, Alice will never speak to you again." Police watched the terminal last night, but nothing developed. Richardson Pratt, assistant treasur er of the Standard OH company of fJew Jersey, whose wife is Parsons' s'ster, was reported willing to pay the ransom should the husband be un pble to raise the cash.

The ransom note, found tucked in the Parsons car on the Long Island estate, and the theory of Mrs. Anna Kupryanova, Russian - born woman who lived with the Parsons family and helped with the work, apparently were the principal leads in the wide search. The couple sought were the middle cged, man and woman said by Mrs. Kupryanova to have called at the farm about 11 a. m., Wednesday, spoken to Mrs. Parsons and driven away with her, ostensibly for a short run to Huntington, about 15 miles away.
