Sept. 24 Still further corroboration of George Paulin's contention he knew Bruno Hauptmann and was tipped beforehand of the latter's Intention to kidnap Charles A. Lindbergh, was offered today by Warden Preston E.

Thomas and his daughter, Amanda, mail censor at Ohio penitentiary. Paulin, 27, is serving a robbery sentence there. Miss Thomas termed the comment by Samuel J. Foley, Bronx district attorney, that the Paulin angle was a "bust" an "insult to my intelligence." She and her father mapped out step by step how they were able, they said, to learn definitely that Paulin was an old acquaintance of Hauptmann, a carpenter, now held as a suspect in the Lindbergh kidnap killing. "On last Thursday afternoon I was upstairs (in the residence) listening to the radio," Miss Thomas related.

"They were broadcasting a Columbus baseball game. Suddenly they broke in with an announcement that man named Bruno Hauptmann was held in the Lindbergh case. "I ran downstairs to dad and said 'that's the man who wrote all those strange letters to 'I asked dad to get Paulin out and ask him about it. Sees Headline.

Then I went out and bWight airxtra paper. We showed him the headline. It gave the name Bruno Hauptmann. We did not show him the rest of the story. "Paulin then said: don't know how he could have killed the child.

He was a good enough woodworker to know how to build a ladder strong enough to support himself. Now, understand, we had not permitted him to read the story. It was not until Paulin mentioned that Hauptmann was a woodworker that we knew he was one." Warden Thomas told the same story, pointing out it would have been impossible for Paulin to have received word of Hauptmann's arrest either through radio or newspapers before he was called into the warden's office that afternoon. "I've had many a strange tale told to me since I've been warden here," he declared. "I don't fall for something that has nothing to it." Miss Thomas asserted the mention of Hauptmann's name Immediately caused her to recall letters addressed to Paulin before the Lindbergh kidnaping, which she said were signed either "Bruno" or "Hauptmann." These, she went on, included the note which Paulin said was Hauptmann's tip to him that he planned to kidnap the Lindbergh child which, decoded, read "will kidnap Lindy baby, hope for." They declared the note was ac companied by an envelope addressed in the same handwriting and bearing a Perth Am boy, N.

postmark of several weeks before the child was stolen from his bed. Went To Hopewell Paulin said he tore the signature from the note and the return address from the envelope when, after the kidnaping, he showed them to the warden. After that, he said, and before he Journeyed with the warden to Hopewell, N. make an offer to mediate for the return of the child and the payment of the ransom, he destroyed both the note and envelope as well as other items of correspondence. Paulin, In his' account of his negotiations with Colonel Lindbergh and New Jersey officers, declared he decided not to aid them further when "I saw they didn't want.

me to work my own plan."

24 The capital heard with keen interest today a report that President Roosevelt la preparing to announce complete reorganization of i probably this week. The Washington Post says' a new board to handle Blue Eagle policymaking will be composed of Bernard M. Baruch, Dr. Raymond Moley and other prominent men. Among others mentioned for posts on this board is Gerard Swope, president of General JElectric and noted advocate of.

Industrial self-government. The set up would spell the end of so-called one-man rule of NRA. What this would mean for the future of General Hugh S. Johnson remains to be seen; There were various reports, one that he would have a place in the new organization and another that he would not. V- -Suggested Board The on vacatlonfor some time, is expected back at his desk this week.

His executive officer Col George -A to. announcing this, sfiid he knew nothing of talk that Johnson was J'out-" of NRA. The general suggested weekv'ago that a board should rule NRA' instead of ens man, and indicated he was anxious to 'step out when the President lelt he could, be spared. Post says it learned "from an administration authority that, besides the policy-making group, the plan calls, for an administrative board of most of whom would be chosen from the present NRA organization. This would be headed by an executive officer, and for this post Colo it 1 is named as a leading possibility.

Others mentioned as prospects for' places on the board are Leon Henderson, head of the NRA, division of research and planning; Leverett Lyon, economist of the Brookings institution, and Leon vice-chairman of the national tabor board. Baruch, a prominent financier with a background as chairman of the war industries board in World war, has devoted much study to questions of industrial mobilization for war purposes. He and General Johnson been close Baruch visited Hyde Park. Saturday and had a lengthy, talk with the i-' I Swope. and the President had an engagement for, a conference at the summer White House today.

Moley, who was chief of what became known as the "Brain Trust," has been a frequent visitor at the White House since leaving his post as assistant secretary of state. He is now flying home from a trip to Rlchberg To Stay; rf The Post says Donald R. Rlchberg! NRA'S general, counsel, "who has emerged more and more as a Presidential adviser, is expected to have a prominent role also in the reorganisation, though whether as an official directly identified with NRA, or as a general administration policy is not yet clarified." The paper declares that the chairmanship of the policy-making group has been offered to Baruch, but that if he proves unavailable Rlchberg may head the' board. i President Roosevelt has been thinking about the NRA, reorganization for weeks. Some time ago it became known that he looked with favor on a plan, suggested by General Johnson, to name three boards to" rule NRA, one shaping policy and the others handling administrative and -judicial matters.

Nothing is known as to the possible members of tlte judicial 'board. Whatever the new organization may do on such controversial questions as price-fixing, it is well known that the President favors retention of the collective bargaining and the prohibition of child labor.
