Lindbergh, and if so, to claim the property for his widow and two young daughters.

Discovery, in the search for the kidnaped Lindbergh baby, that sev eral Brooklyn and Manhattan rum runners and racketeers had prop erty in Hunterdon County, led to a report that uale had acquired a "hideaway" there shortly bsfore he was gunned to death in Borough Park in 1929. Search for the property has been started by Julian V. Carabba, coun sel for the widow. It is believed that if Uale acquired such an es tate, he did so through a dummy or under a fictitious name, as re cent revelations in the search for his money indicates he contracted a bigamous marriage shortly before his murder. At the time of his death, Uale's widow said she knew of no real estate in his name.

Representative Patrick J. Carley and James L. Meeks, president of the Bay Ridge Civic Council, tho two strongest opponents of the project, stand side by side ready to fight any effort to construct the, bridge. And William Kennedy president of the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce, refused to become interested in the announcement. Hia organization is concentrating upon two other vehicular projects at this time and does not intend to spread its efforts over too great an area.

These are the proposed railroad tunnel to either Staten Island or Greenville, N. and the proposed Hamilton Ave. vehicular tunnel to Manhattan. Meeks declared the Bay Ridge Civic Council had fought the bridge project once, and is ready to withstand vigorously any attempt to revive the issue. He also stated he believed the announcement about private capital being interested in the project to be misleading.

"I think they are Just shooting in the air when thev talk about private capital." he declared. "That plan could not go through. They are just seeking a means of reopening the project. "If the project should go through the cost would fall back on the public," he added. Kennedy also expressed a disbelief that private capital could swing the deal.

All the other bridges to Staten Island were constructed by the Port of New York Authority, he said. Revival of he project was announced yesterday through D. B.

This was learned today from the office of the Board of Taxes and Assessment, which said these vouchers, if offered by real estate men in payment of taxes, are acceptable only on the same terms as any other check, "subject to collection." No receipts for such payments are issued before the checks or vouchers are validated. The only forms of payment Immediately sanctioned as final are those made by certified check, money order, bank check or American Express money order.

It was pointed out that 20 to 30 worthless checks are received every day at the tax office and May 1 of each year usually sees about 2.00U bad ones. Michael P. Cumin, real estate operator of 92d St. and 4th complains of having to wait from six weeks to two months for the Department of Public Welfare's checks in payment of rent vouchers. He reported recently he was trying to withhold dispossess proceedings as long as possible but that he was compelled to set a time limit as the owners of property he represents will not wait indefinitely either.

Curnin interpreted the delay as a possible Inability on the part of the city to make good the vouchers because of hardships Imposed on It by the stress of the times. Assurance that this Is not so came from the Home Relief Bureau where A. Alt-schuler, auditor in Manhattan bureau headquarteis, dispelled any possible basis for fear the vouchers would not be made good. He pointed out that there is sufficient money in the bank to back up every voucher issued and real estate operators holding them will Please Turn to Page LAID I SHELF Troy Agrees With Menden Present Conditions Do Not Warrant Cost The now aged question of reopening the 65th St. trolley ramp appears due for a respite that will carry It through the Summer in a benign state of sleep.

The B. M. according to today's statement from its offices at 385 Flatbush Ave. Extension, still sees no way of dodging the economic burden it contends immediate action would Impose. William 8.

Menden. presi dent of the corporation, recently presented some glorious ideas for the restoration. of the incline. He envisioned a development which would Include, with the reopening, a row of fine shops beneath the improved structure and the creation of a transit center into which surface, and bus lines would converge. But Menden offered a condition.

The condition was $80,000. The B. M. T. considered that an impasse It could not traverse.

It still considers it that. For Menden there is not a com plete lack of sympathy either. As sistant Corporation Counsel Matthew J. Troy today said he knows of nothing that "seems to warrant asking Mr. Menden to push the project." Troy is convinced the transit com pany has lost cevenue on all its cars subway, surface and elevated.

Perhaps now, he thinks, it would be about the best idea not to disturb the quietus that has been placed over tne ramp controversy. The de pression, avers Troy, has shot its last bolt. It has struck as high or low as can be struck by anything, ana it is time now to be hopeful. Hopeful as Troy is of an economic revival. Just so hopeful is he that with that revival will come correspondingly better things.

That, he feels, is the ramp. In the Fall, he is sure, something will come of It. He's going to wait until then. And hen that time comes Troy thinks that maybe that will be a much bet ter time to think about going to have a chat with William Menden again.

The sooner they are taken to an institution for treatment the more quickly they will be cured." Dr. Block defined he difference between criminal and medical in sanity. Medical insanity he pictured as a disease, due to hallucina tions and delusions. The criminally insane, he said, are those who while Insane and committing a crime do not understand the nature and qual ity of their acts and are not re sponsible. The medically insane, he declared, are fully responsible.

It is a popular misconception, he added, that the insane or those thought to be insane tan be railroaded to an institution. Every Insane person is entitled to a Jury composed of qualified examiners.

While there has been no great decrease In the number of children born in these hospitals, it was learned today there has been a falling off in the call for the more expensive and also the cheaper rooms, and an increased demand for medium priced rooms.
