"HYSTERICAL: MOB SPIRIT”
The first stage has been taken in the appeal of Bruno Hauptmann, who was sentenced to death for the murder of the Lindbergh baby,
Hauptmann's counsel has filed with the prosecution 138 arguments for setting aside the conviction, preparatory to presenting the ap- paal in June.
Mr. Egbert Rosencraus, one of defence counsel, haa announced at Blairstown, NJ, that the case would be taken to the United States Supreme Court if necessary,
In setting forth the reasons for the contention that Hauptmann's rights under the Constitution of the United States were violated, counsel'e arguments, which were compiled by Mr. Rosencraus, list 08 unduly the following factors Inflaming and influencing the jury against Hauptmann:—
