Samuel

criminal
lawyer,
who
entered
the
Hauptmann-Lind-bergh

several
days

with
the
avowed
intentiop
of
getting:
Bruno
Richard
Haupttr.aim
"to

a
statement
by
Leibowitz
indicated
that
he
strongly
believed
Hauptmann
to
be
guilty
of
the
kidnap-inurder
of
Charles
Augustus
Lindbergh
jr.,
Leibowitz
would
not
say
that
he

is
withdrawing
from
the
case
because
of
such
belief.
He
told
of
a
long
conversation
in
the
death
cell
with
Hauptmann
in
the
course
of
which
the
former
Bronx
carpenter,
now
sentenced
to
die
the
week
of
March

refused
to
admit
his
guilt
or
to
tell
further
particulars
of
how
he
came
into
possession
of
the
ransom
money.
Had
he
planned
the
kidnapping,
Hauptmann
told
Leibowitz
he
would
have
worked
through
the
women
of
the
household
to
obtain
the
child.
Theorizing
Hauptmann
expressed
the
belief
that
the
child
had
not

removed
by
way
of
the
window
and
the
ladder

by

that

utilizing

to

system
and
to
Improve
her
foreign
trade.
He
is
making
a
virtue

If
sanctions
had
not
been
applied,
he
said,
he
would
have
had
to
find
another
means
of
doing
the

was
expansion
Into

When

adopted
a
two-point
program:
1.
Compel
Italian
manufacturers
with

to
themselves
to
make
things
previously
imported
and
to
improve
their
pro-,.

so
they
may
better

2.
Increase
