District Attorney Foley reported Hauptmann deposited or exchanged at least 1830 in gold coins or certificates on March 3, 1933. Officials say none of this money has been identified as Lindbergh ransom funds. Investigators continue to scrutinize Hauptmann’s apartment walls and recovered sums from his garage and person totaling 19705 of the 50000 paid by Lindbergh. The probe also notes a possible mysterious woman aiding the case and questions over who received the ransom.

Supreme Court drops oil case in Texas disputes
The Supreme Court opened its fall term by dismissing one of five cases challenging the constitutionality of the New Deal in oil production disputes. The government sought dismissal after it learned executive orders omitted the specific offense of production beyond state quotas. Lower courts had ruled the federal government lacked authority to control state production, while two other cases against the National Industrial Recovery Act provisions remained before the court.
