Lindbergh Won't Face Hauptmann In Electric Chair
Col Charles A Lindbergh vetoed a plan to appear before Bruno Hauptmann in the electric chair to secure a full confession in the Lindbergh baby case. The plan, conceived after Hauptmann's February conviction, was abandoned amid late revelations of Gov Hoffman's midnight visit to Hauptmann. Attorney General Wilentz and State Police Superintendent Schwarzkopf denied knowledge of the proposal, calling it unlikely. A separate note reports Hauptmann's death warrant signed for the week of Jan 13, with lawyers seeking to delay. Also: an elderly Toledo man dies at 93, leaving 120 descendants across four generations. Saratoga, California, notes eight bankers living there amid a closing bank nearby.
