• CHANCE PASSERBY FINDS LINDBERGH BABY'S BODY
FINDERS OF LINDY BABY POINT OUT SPOT
Thursday, Ma)r 19th, 1032'
Seventy-three 'days of nerve-
/wracking uncertainty ended for Col.
Charles Lindbergh and his wife on
May 12 with the news that their
kidnapped child had been found
LITTLE BODY DISCOVERED BY CE-IANCB NEAR HOME
dead, inurdered by his abductors.
Police, spurred to new efforts by the
discovery of the child's body 'near
the Lindbergh estate, still had noth-
ing but vague clues to work on.
Showing the wave of revulsion that
has followed discovery of the crime,
I New York newspaper headlines were
I blacker than ever before. One news-
! paper devoted .its entire front
to the words, "Baby Dead." Photos,
reproduced here show the helpless
victim as he appeared on his first
birthday, a few months before his -
abduction and death.
WILLIAM ALLEN,
FINDER OF BA Y,
WITH HIS DOG
While a battalion of secret opera-
tives and police worked assiduously
al lover the world in efforts to trace
the myriad rumors concerning the
Lindbergh kidnapping, William Al-
len, colored, discovered the mutilat-
ed body of the child by the merest
chance as he walked through the,
woods near Trenton; N.J. Allen is
shown here with his dog in a photo-
graph which was transmitted by tel-
ephoto to Cleveland, sped by aero-
plane to Buffalo, where it was pick-
ed up by aeroplane to be rushed to
Canada.

EXPECT ARREST
OF KIDNAFPE>*'S
MAY BE SOON
New York Five erten and a wo-
man, whose identities are believed
to be known, were responsible for
the kidnapping of the baby son of
Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh on the
night of March 1, and his murder
soon afterward, according to infor-
mation now in the hands of the
New .jersey State Police.
The arrest of one or more mem- 's
'hers of this group is understood on
good authority to be expected with- i
in the next few days.
THE TEST FOR
UNCLE SAM
A babe has awakened the world
to the rottenness that festers and
foments . in the body politic of a
great nation.
The cruel fate of a child — the
smashing of a happy, human home
—dramatically discloses the tentacles
of the Thing that is tearing at the
vitals of a proud people. For the
moment the Dollar—the big concern
—the only concern—does not' seem
to matter..
Uncle Sam must realize at Iast
that he has something else on hand
which demands his attention—some-
thing ugly, filthy, foul, and strong.
He has seen—and the world has
seen—his so-called police, chattering
pretenders at law enforcement, run
for weeks in aimless circles and then
be shoved aside ignotniously as use-
less, while a humiliating appeal was
made to the powerful criminal un-
derworld.
Another week -end has gone by.
Constituted tted authority, whatever that
e
may mean, is still stabbing stupidly
at suspicions and theories, just as it
did in weeks past, and wondering
whether the hordes that the Presi-
dent has let loose will get some-
where.
At any rate, the world is duly ad-
vised in despatches that a nation is
aroused, a President is aroused, a
people is aroused. It will be inter-
esting and illutninating to see what
all this' advertised arousedness twill
accomplish,
Itis the testing time for our nei-
ghbors across the line. And the
tandard of the test is not monetary
pr materialistic. It is not to be
neasured in mere metal—even by
old.—Globe.
REVENGE MIGHT BE' MOTI"V"E

is speculation as to whether or not
the .baby was taken in revenge.
PARENTS OF SLAIN CHILD
MOTHER'S
COURAGE HIGHLIGHT OF TRAGEDY
The courage of Anne Lindbergh
was an inspiration to all about her,
friends said; as forces of law and or-
der the length and breadth of the
continent began a relentless hunt for
the slayers of her child. The .second
blow she has taken bravely during
the last eight months came on it+lay
12, Last, October while she and Col,
Lindbergh were on an earial trip to
the Orient, . her fIather Senator
Dwight W. Morrow,' died. Then on
May 12 police officers brought her
pieces of clothing from the body of
a baby that had been. found slain a
short distance from the Lindbergh
estate. She identified them as her
child's. The young mother, who is
expecting another child within a few
months, was described as bearing up
with her usual equanimity." Photo
