WITNESS IN
DEATH CASE
IS KIDNAPED
Man Released After
Being Held For
18 Hours By Two
^Armed Men
DENVER April 27. (A*)—A story
of being kidnaped related by Harry
Weinstein 53-year-old plumber and
a witness in the Max Schwartz as-
sassination case here drew federal
and local authorities’ attention
Monday.
R. G. Brown head of the Denver
Bureau of the Department of Jus-
tice and Detective Captain James
Childers said they would look into
the account Weinstein gave of being
abducted by two armed men blind-
folded and handcuffed and held
captive for eighteen hours at a
home in the country. He returned
to his home here Sunday night
near exhaustion.
Slain by Gangmen?
The plumber said he was snatch-
ed from near his garage early Sun-
day after he had spent the evening
at the home of Mrs. Lena Schwartz
widow of the real estate broker who
was ambushed here last November.
Police believe Schwartz who left
a $95000 estate was slain by
gangmen because he had informa-
tion against them regarding the
transportation of stolen goods across
. a state boundary.
Weinstein who is facing a charge
of writing a $15000 extortion note
to Martyn Schwartz son of the
broker returned home while a wide
search for him was in progress.
$5000 For Life
He said the men whom he pre-
viously accused of forcing him to
write the extortion demand were
the same ones who kidnaped him.
One of them whom he said he
knew only as “Pete” told him he
owed them $4200 the balance of a
$5000 “agreement” Weinstein said
he was forced to make to prevent
them from killing him. He said the
two men told him they were dele-
gated by Schwartz to kin him but
agreed not to if he would pay them
the $5000.
He was released on a downtown
Denver street he said to have the
opportuniy to get the money he
said the abductors demanded.

France Fears It Is Too Late
To Halt Nazis as Financial
Interests Oppose Socialists
By MORRIS GILBERT
NEA Service Staff Correspondent
PARIS April 27.—The greatest
of all “Internationales” — compos-
ed of the bankers of the city of
London the industrialists of France
and the press-lords in both London
and Paris — have made their
choice.
Better Hitler and his regime they
say than the overthrow of Hitler
which would pave the way for so-
cialism in Germany.
That according to French opin-
ion is the reasion for the British
delay in reaching a conclusion about
Germany’s armed descent into the
Rhineland and for the British wish
to act not as a signatory of the
Locarno Pact but as an umpire be-
tween France and Germany.
In some French quarters the old
traditional cry of “Albion perfide”—
perfidious Britain!— is being raised
again as it has been raised for cen-
turies. These same quarters are de-
claring that Britain came to scratch
too slowly — as she did in 1914
when quicker and braver decision
on the part of the Cabinet would
have prevented the World War.
Regret Failure to Mobilize
Frenchmen are pointing out that
even before Italy fired her first gun
against the Ethiopians Great Brit-
ain had mobilized. Her war fleet
was concentrated in the Mediter-
ranean in September. When the
Reichswehr marched into the Rhine-
land on March 7 France did not
mobilize. She recalled her soldiers
in training along the Maginot line
from vacations and she planned to
call up a special reserve consisting
of a few thousand young citizens
who did their military service on
the eastern frontier and are familiar
with the mechanism of that great
wall of concrete and metal.
Some Frenchmen today are re-
gretting that one reputed vote in
the cabinet session of March 7 pre-
vented mobilization. Why should
it have meant war they argue any
more than the mobilization of the
British fleet last autumn meant war
with Italy?
Had France mobilized it is sug-
gested France would have had as
strong a talking point in the Rhine-
land case as Great Britain had
whe nshe forced France to accept
sanctions against Mussolini.
Now Paris is saying (except that
part of Paris which likes the Nazis)
it is too late. Germany eventually
will fortify her side of the Rhine.
The barrier will prevent France from
