Gradually came bits of informa- tion about the Norfolk angle of the \\'l.'i" hunt for Lll-nioiith-old Char- l__v=. iluuurtus Lindbergh, Jr.

From one or another of the three Virginians came these facts:

Til-it they had been involved in ucgotiations about the return of the child since Nlareh 9, eight days after the abduction.

That they were drawn into the

ruse when they were approached by representatives of those claiming to be the kidnappers. - That the plan had been to carry ou: negotiations with the utmost of _,§@°F¢@Y. and that the success of their endeavors depended to a con- iizicrnble extent on their not dis- cufiliinll’ Whit U103’ were doing.

1n connection v/ith these four men, the commissioner observes that the irregularities and Merl»!!- mcnts revealed cannot be excused. In the case of seven other sup- ervisors, irregularities erefound but no blame iii-attached to the man themselves who are exonerated on repayment to the Department o! Public Works of small amounts ranging from $11.75 to $17.50, this being the extent t0 which their payrolls were irregular.

These seven are: Archibald Mur- chic, Nash Creek; Stanley Culligan, Jacquet River; Alexander C. Hic- key, Durham; Phillip Pelletler, 5t. Maura; David Sirwarer. Archibald Settlement; Joylme J. Armand Cor- inler, St. Andre.

With regard to these men, the commission observes:

"I do not. believe there was ever any intention of wrong-doing on their part."

In the case of three 'ther eup- crvlsers-John Ouelietto. Val D‘- Amour, Reml Marquis. Baker Brook, and Joseph Tardy, Bal- moral, the commissioner finds that. payrolls had been padded but that. it had apparently been the result of misplaced confidence in dishon- est time-keepers, the supervisors themselves being illiterate.

With regard to these three slip-

ervisors. the Commissioner says:

"They should be severely censured

for their carelessness in leaving

everything to their tlmekeepers;

restitution of the full amounts of

the over-payments should not be

asked, but. rather an amount

which it is within their means to

pay without entailing undue hard-

ship."

FEAR FELT

It is believed that the boat de- veloped motor trouble and drifted around until heavy seas swamped it. In some circles the belief was expressed that: they had found shelter in some protected cove. Both Sabcnri and Lewis have had wide experience in fishing in the bay. The boat in which they set out has the reputation of being a death boat. Last fail as Sabean's brother, Frederick, attempted to step into it, he lost his balance and plunged tn his death into the St. John River here.

Sabean and Lewis are both mar- ried, arid have families. Both men are 29 years of age. Mrs. Sabean held little hope tonight that her husband and his companion were living. “When they left yesterday morning to fix up their lines, they expected to return about 4 o'clock in the afternoon," sh: told u. re- porter.

U.S. TARRIFF

weight will become law or that a. tariff will be placed upon copper. Should the duty on coal become effective it would seriously damage an export trade from Western Canada valued at roughly $3,000,- 000 a year. Copper exports from the Dominion to the United States have run as high as $12,000,000. Congress has backed itself into a tariff fight against the will of its leaders. The occasion in the Senate ls the Democratic bill from the House which proposed: trans- fer of the power of revision from the President to Congress, a con- sumer's counsel to represent the people at hearings before the tar- iff commission and an Interna- tional Conferencs. The occasion in the House is discussion of the tax bill now out of control, by the Democratic leaders.

The main reason advanced by observers against imposition of proposed increases in tariff is that such action would throw the doors open to demands by all inter- csts for further protection.

ALBANY, N. Y. Mar. 28. — East- ern New York State was storm bound today in a. deluge of rain and snow which took eight lives, drove a dozen families from floodedhomcs and marooned nine big inter-urban busses on upstate highways.

The storm struck late Sunday night. and tonight all roads from Blnghampton, near the Pennsyl- vania State line to the Canadian border were blocked. Transportation in Bincliamoton. Albany. Schenec- tady and Glensfalls, cities scattered over a distance of 200 miles. was demorallzed. ‘The storm still raged and when a high north wind arose late in the day attempts to open any but the trunk roads were ab- andoried.

Lake Placid, in the heart of the winter resort region, reported the “worst March snow storm in 30 years."

While it snowed upstate it. rained heavily nearer New York City. At White Plains a commuter slipped on a wet railway platform and fell underneath s. moving train. He was killed. An aged man fell on a ruin- swept pavement and died of a frac- tured skull. A man in s rowboat at Port Cheater was swept over a dam by freshet waters in the Byram River and drowned. At Round Lake, near Troy, a woman dropped dead from over-exertion while shov- elling snow and at Bsdferd four were drowned when two automobiles sldsswlped each other and one plunged into 25 feet of water. The one driver's vision was obscured by rain and sleet."

Firemen in high boots carried res- idents of s. dozen homes to safety when the Bholdrake River at Mimi- aroneck overflowed and flooded the district.
