Offer New French Premier Sarcastic in Speech As Finance Minister Under Laval, 'Snooted' Mellon and Stimson on Moratorium to Point of Explosion Many Times By GUY HICKOK A tall, blue-eyed blond lawyer-aviator of 45, with a tenor voice, a venomously sarcastic drawl, In English as well as French, and a belief that the depression is largely due to tariff walls erected by creditor nations Is Pierre Etienne Flandin, today standing his? A Reward for Capt. Eddie Rlckenbacker '-'1- RULES FRANCE HI LJf New Hauptmann Evidence Will Not Be Given to Public ProMTiition to Proceed With Caution-Reilly Will Ask Bill of Particulars Flemington, N. Nov. 9 C4) Bruno Hauptmann, today sat In hU cell reading newspapers from which every mention of the Linbergh kidnaping case had been carefully clipped while his attorneys renewed their attacks on tne stales case against him.

New Jersey prosecutors expressed "greater certainty than ever" of his guilt and announced that "no new evidence will be made public from now on," though they would not say whether new evidence had been found. The defense counsel, Edward J. Reilly of Brooklyn and Lloyd Fisher of Flemington, conferred earlier on a demand to the State for a full bill of particulars which would show whether Hauptmann will be tried for premeditated murder or killing during commission of a felony. The State, Reilly said, will be asked to specify the time and place of the murder of Charles A. Lind bergh the person or persons present, and whether it believes Hauptmann was present or was an aacesspry outside the radius of the crime.

The defense, if denied the infor mation sought, will ask an order of the trial Judge, Justice Thomas W. Trench ard, to compel the State to respond. The defense lawyer also demanded that Hauptmann be allowed to see his personal mail, now about 100 letters, which has been accumulating during his imprisonment. A new statement of her faith in her husband's innocence was issued yesterday by Mrs. Hauptmann.

5 Negroes Beat Rescuing Officer Early today some one told Patrolman Abraham Corn of the Coney Island precinct that five Negroes were menacing a white man with an iron bar in the rear of a house at 2840 W. 29th St. Patrolmani Corn found the story true, but was hit with the bar, his hand dislocated and his uniform ripped badly by the five, who re sented his interference. A radio car containing Patrolmen John Berniss and Joseph Man-die arrived and after ten minutes or so the three officers had the five under control. The Negroes, arrested on a charge of taking $25 from Rudy Alexander of 227 W.

20th the man they menaced with the Iron bar, described themselves as follows: Vernon Hoover, 24, of 2436 Ocean Park way: Winston Presley, 23, of 2872 W. 29th Theodore Graham, 37, and Joseph Scott, both of 2845 29th and Ruppert Harris, 19, of 301 Neptune Ave. Teachers Lukewarm To Adoption Proposal Virtually Boycott" Relief Plan Sponsored by FERA Ask Fixed Rate Unless the Government does bet ter than the 72 cents a hundredweight it has offered for Long Island potatoes for relief Durnoses. the farmers are going to say: Yes, we have no potatoes for the Government." Suffolk and Nassau growers have declared a virtual boycott of the potato relief plan sponsored by the Federal Emergency Relief Adminis tration and its subsidiary th sr. plus Food Corporation.

only one farmer from one from Suffolk have offered potatoes on the basis of the 72-cent maximum price. Three growers asked $1.20 and one called for $2 a hundredweight. Sees Plan Doomed W. G. Bean, head of the Suffolk County Farm Bureau, declared the Government plan is doomed because farmers can get better prices in the local market.

He predicted the Agricultural Adjustment Administration soon will see to It that better prices are offered. A. J. Walsh, assistant purchasing agent of the FERA, disclosed that up-State farmers, who are getting only 20 cents a hundredweight, have threatened to seize Long Inland potatoes shipped through their territory for relief purposes. A statewid demand is growing, Walsh said, for a standard price which will allow for the extra cost of grading and shipping and permit the growers to make a profit.

Walsh Indicated the potato relief plan will iioi De aDanaoned unless instructions come from Washington. Federal Court appointed receivers for the Lehrenkrauss corporation and all its assets, at the same time restraining the State court action. The Circuit Court's decision was accompanied by an opinion in which Judge Walter Thomas declared there was "no suggestion in the record that the two corporations have not always transacted their business as separate and distinct corporate entities." He found the lower court's order enjoining all persons from prosecuting claims against the title company "amazing and contrary to the whole theory of an equity receivership." to a demonstration of HELTA ELECTRIC: TOOLSJ November 16th and 17th All Day Saturday- Till 10 o'clock I Sre the New One ATKI NSON'S Broadway af Ralph Avenua Ask for Detcripiire Mailer FOxerot 9-0200 At That Brooklyn Instructors Attack Many first watch at the wheel of the French ship of State. In the retiring Premier, Gaston Doumergue, President Albert Le-brun had confided the fate of the nation to one of France's oldest statesmen, tried often before in the State's highest offices, those of Premier, President of the Senate and President of the Republic. Opposite Extreme Today, with political tension as acute as ever.

President Lebrun goes to the opposite extreme, calling a man who, though he has been 20 years In politics and has several times held Cabinet posts, is still young and has never been tried In higher offices. That Flandin Is Intelligent and that, as an executive, he is able, there is no question. That he can weld the bitterly divided French Chamber of Deputies into something resembling a unit that will endure for any length of time ia not so certain. Sarcasm makes few friends. Flan din has for 20 years drawled his way tnrough political life with a voice and manner suggesting ironical contempt for almost everybody, even when his actual express re spect.

Mentally, as well as physi cally, he "looks down" on the rest of the world. As Minister of Finance in the Laval Cabinet, he "snooted" Secretary of the Treasury Andrew Mellon incessantly when Mellon and Sec retary of State Stimson went to Paris to negotiate the Hoover moratorium. Though Mellon was almost twice his age and was still regarded as "the greatest Secretary of the Treasury since Alexander Hamil ton," Flandin was not Impressed, and nis subtly sarcastic manner brought the negotiations to the point of explosion many times. Paralyze Movement As to the causes, of the depression, he said two years ago: What has warped the mechan ism is that governments (meaning both the French and American governments), even though asked to act thus by badly informed or ignorant opinion, have paralyzed the movements of goods. "France," he said, "began too late to accept German goods as payment, and the United States never began at all to accept French goods.

"The duty of a creditor country consists, before everything else, in favoring the methods of payment of the debtor." Flandin comes from the conservative side of the French Chamber, though his party is known as the Republicans." No party will label itself "Right." Such as Pay Cuts, in Receiving Dr. Bayne's Suggestion for Child Psychology By MARY O'FLAHERTY School Editor of The Eagle Associate Superintendent of Schools Stephen F. Bayne's suggestion yesterday that childless school teachers over 30 should adopt children reaped no record crop of enthusiasm being kissed by his wife after he teachers questioned at random. proving a teacher's classroom qualitiesthis principal declared his experience was that it tended to "soften" many of the mother-teachers. The "softening" made them ease up on the pupils, and, he finds, the mothers among his teachers are not usually strict disciplinarians.

Another male, who also advocated the "informal adoption" compromise, pointed out that a child is "a care." "To a certain extent, the care of a child impedes the efficiency of a teacher. After being with 40 children all day, it's probably a good thing for a teacher to get away from them at night." This last statement was practically what the woman teacher said after her, "My goodness!" Associated Press Photo. arrived at Newark Airport. Newark, N. Nov.

OP) The new transcontinental speed record for transport planes is 12 hours, 3 minutes and 50 seconds and Captain Eddie Rlckenbocker thinks that's "pretty good for commercial flying." Breakfasting In Los Angeles yesterday, Rlckenbacker with two copilots and three passengers, landed the big, twin motored airliner, Florida -Flyer, at Newark Airport "all set for dinner in New York." The plane took off at Union Airport, Los Angeles, at 5:42 (P.S.T.) and touched ground here at 8:45:50 (E.S.T.), cutting 58 minutes and 10 seconds from the old record which Rlckenbacker held. Oxygen Tanks Used Flying over the Transcontinental Western Airlines course, with a 12-minute stop at Kansas City for refueling, the ship averaged 221 miles an hour. With Rlckenbacker, vice president of the North American Aviation Company, in command, the plane was piloted by SI Morehouse and Capt. Charles W. France, vice president of Eastern Air Lines, owners of the ship.

Passengers were Roy W. Howard, publisher, and Henry McLemore and James I. Kilgallen, reporters. "At one point over the Rockies we hit 17.000 feet," said Rlckenbacker. "Then we had to use the oxygen tanks, but Just for a few minutes.

Our top speed was 237 miles an hour."

Flandin Van Schaick Wins In Lehrenkrauss Wind-Up Attempt U. S. Grcuit Court of Appeals Rules He May Act to Liquidate Concern State Superintendent of Insurance Van Schaick was In position today, as a result of a "decision by the United States Circuit Court of Appeals, to proceed with action looking to liquidation and dissolution of the Lehrenkrauss Mortgage Title Guarantee Company, one of the ventures of Julius Lehrenkrauss, now serving a Jail term for grand larceny. The decision, handed down late yesterday, reversed a previous order of the Brooklyn Federal Court restraining the insurance Superintendent from seeking a liquidation order in the State courts. Began Proceedings Year Ago Mr.

Van Schaick had begun proceedings with that end in view more, than a year ago. Then, last December, the parent corporation, J. Lehrenkrauss Son, consented to a Federal receivership, and the the cigarette thats MILDER the cigarette that tastes butter among a number of Brooklyn Dr. Bayne's opinion, printed in yesterday's Eagle, was that the experience of knowing a child out of school would make the teacher more understanding of children in the classroom. "My goodness!" exclaimed one woman teacher.

"I don't think I'd have the patience after having chil dren all day in school." It "It probably would give a teacher more respect for a pupil's feeling and better understanding of his conduct, was another teach er's reaction. "Well, If a teacher can afford it and feels the urge to adopt a child, I can't see any object, The "buts" were many. Included were reminders of the average teacher's position in life at present what with (1) pay cuts, (2) voluntary relief expenditures, and (3) families of their own to support. One woman high school teacher raised the objection of "you never know what you're getting" in adoption. She did think, however, that teachers should foster the welfare of their students.

She said she knew of some teachers who watch out for as many as ten of their pupils. This "fostering" and. what another educator called "half-adoption" was advanced by several as a sort of alternative to Dr. Bayne's position. "Many teachers are bringing up their sisters' children, their brothers' children and children of no relation to them at all," said one Brooklyn teacher.

A Junior high school principal was all for the principle of the thing, Indorses 'Fostering He was sure, he said, that teachers were among the sort of per sons who should foster children and should have children of their own and nowadays didn't. "But I would certainly not recommend formal adoption. Taking a perfectly strange child into the home is always a doubtful venture. I think the teachers are doing good work with children as things are," he continued, referring to the "fostering" so many teachers give their pupils.
