J. Police. Take Stand. Flemington, N. J., Jan. 7. (UP) Betty Moat Gow came. triumphantly through what has been described as the hardest or deal of her life today as she told the curiously morbid world the story of the kidnaping of the Lindbergh baby. , She took two hours' hard ham mering from Edward J. Reilly, Hauptmann's attorney, but walked out of court erect and smiling. The little yellow feather on her hat bobbing jauntily through the peering crowd outside the courtroom, she walked away. She had answered a barrage of questions without a fault, and was dis missed about mid-afternoon. Troopers Testify The last three witnesses ' to take the stand in today's chap ter of one of the most famous of world trials were three New Jersey state troopers. Frank Kelly, finger-print expert, testi fied that he had been unable to find prints of hands on the nursery window-sill.

Of secondary importance in Waynick's opinion is the pledge, "uttered from time to time' by authoritative political executives of the state," that highway rev enue shall not be diverted from the highway debt and the main tenence of the highways. His third objection is the mil lion-dollar annual loss of federal money that the state would in cur under the Hayden-Cart- wright Act's penalty provision, which directs a 30 per cent cut in allotments to any state allow ing "raids on its automobile and gasoline levies." In support of his statement that "There can be no justifiable rivalrv between schools and roads for the state's support," Waynick said : : , "Revenue from other sources (Continued on page two) W. F.
