Dr John F. Condon, the "Jafsie" of the Lindbergh ransom payment, figured again today in the celebrated kidnap drama.

The retired public school principal was called into conference with police detectives shortly before they announced the arrest of Bernard Richard Hauptmann as the man who received the $50,000 ransom payment. Dr Condon, who once said he would devote the rest of his life and his personal, fortune to tracking down the persons responsible for the $50,000 noax, was closeted with detectives at the Greenwich-st Police Station as today's disclosure came. Later he was believed to have identified the prisoner. The elderly school man handed the $50,000 So a man in a Brc.nx cemetery the night of April 2, 1932. Nothing happened.

Condon had been duped. Col Charles A. Lindbergh had furnished Condon with the money and urged its payment, believing Condon had established contact with the kidnapers of Charles A. Lindbergh Jr. Advertisements which Condon had inserted in newspapers in his efforts to negotiate with the kidnapers brought him the name of "Jafsie." The man to whom Condon paid the money was a mysterious Condon knew him by no other name.

The $50,000 was tossed over a cemetery wall by "Jafsie" to "John," in accordance with instructions from the supposed kidnapers. Since then Condon, now 74 years old. has visited many police rogues' galleries and viewed numerous suspects in a widespread search for "John."

In the meantime, he said, he observed only scenes of confusion in the wheel house, on the bridge and on the decks. 'Rogers and I seemed to be the only ones who knew how serious the situation was. Alagna testified.

"On my fourth trip to the bridge I learned that the wheel had been abandoned." he added. "After I had made three trips to the bridge without getting orders to send an Rogers and I decided send the 'stand by' signal. That was at 3:15 a m.

G.T, U. PREDICTS PROHIBITION'S RETURN World Head Addresses Maine Organization Spec's! Dispatch (a the Globe ROCKLAND, Me, Sept 2C Stoutly asserting that national prohibition is still the best method of detling with the liquor traffic, Mrs Ella A. Boole, president of the World's Woman's Christian Temperance Union, today gave the Maine State W. T. U.

convention a list of repeal "nets." She said that repeal will not change the nature of alcohol; will rot lessen its consumption; will not stop bootlegging; will not stop drinking among young people and women; will not solve financial problems in Maine, and it has not relieved unemployment. Mrs Boole said the repeal of Constitutional prohibition wa a shot heard around the world. "The saloon, an outlaw in Maine for more than 75 years, will come back." she said. "There will be restrictions at first, but these gradually be relaxed, as has been the experience in New York and other States. The smuggling of liquors from other countries during national prohibition- and the activities of the internatior.a1 wine office have convinced us that worldwide piohibition must be achieved if we redly want to rid the world of the liquor traffic.

"The goal may not be realized in our generation, but the Woman's Christian Temperance Union will not lower its standards." The convention has 130 voting delegates and an unusually large number of prominent guests. These State officers were elected today: Mrs Althea G. Portland, president; Miss Amelia Shapleigh, West Lebanon, vice president-at-large; Mrs Alice M. Bigney, Greenville, corresponding secretary; Miss Margaret Sargent, Falmouth Fore-side, recording recretary; Miss Caroline F. Chase, Augusta, assistant recording secretary; Mrs Vena L.

Johnson, Portland, treasurer. Indications point to Old Orchard as the place of holding the next State convention. The resolutions reaffirm the convention's belief that prohibition is the best method yet tried for the elimination of the liquor traffic, and express the opinion that time will again see prohibition ascendant and triumphant.
