It was the opinion of the committee that a small fee could be charged for the inspection of meat in Logan city that would take care ol the cost of inspection. It would be necessary for the inspector to inspect sixteen shops in Logan and two slaughtering plants daily. COMMITTEE TO IN VEM1GATE Chairman Dr. O.

This is not being complied with by u number of the small milk sellers. Health Officer Walton reported that the bacteria test and the sediment test for Logan milk is much better now than last year. There has been a great improvement in dairy equipment and in the handling of the milk. There is still, however, room for much improvement in the manner some people take care of their milch cows and handle the milk that is sold to the public.

STATE HEAD OF NIGHT TRIPS (Copyright By United Press) HOPEWELL, N. J, Mar. 10. From seven sources, all of them connected with the Lindbergh kidnaping case came word today that Col. Charles A. Lindbergh himself has made three mysterious auto trips since Monday in an endeavor to contribute to relief of his baby. Lindbergh's asserted journey included two night trips, and he protected hinqself against recognition by wearing a New Jersey state troopers leather jacket, a trooper uniform hat and glasses. Every effort to confuse followers and to conceal even the fact that he was away were taken by Col. Lindbergh. It was said he drove his own car and that his first mysterious excursion was Monday night at JX o'clock, returning Tuesday morning at 7. He was in the house only two hours when he started again, the sources said. He did not return until 4 p. m.

Originally, kidnaping was strictracket. ly a Gambling, booze and vice rackets in the big cities grouped together large numbers of paid gunmen professional hard guys," who wire seldom bothered by the police and who were constantly ready for absolutely any crime on the calendar. It occurred to these men, nfter a time, that the very underworld figures who were hiring them were shining targets for kidnapers. These men could he trusted never to squawk to the police. Besides, most of them are arrant cowards, and it seemed a safe bet that if they were abducted they would pay well for their freedom.

A gambler would be taken captive and held until he could get his family or his associates to cough up anywhere from $10,000 to $25,000.

The shock that jarred the entire nation when the Lindbergh baby was kidnaped has focused attention on the fact that there are kidnaping rings today, and that citizens has little the defense against them. 1 he modern kidnaper is just as much a specialist in his line as are the underworld booze runners, gambling kings and choppers, The United Press can reiterate on positive, unimpeachable authority that the Lindberghs did not receive on Sunday two communications from the kidnapers. Reports that they did have been given wide but erroneous circulation. The Lindberghs are having the assistance of a fuaa nai'ed Morris Rosner who has in the past been associated with )ersons high in the justice department. Likewise, Rosner Is said to be so closely connected with the underworld that it was he who selected Salvatore Spitale and Irbetween ving Bitz as the Lindberghs and the kidnapers. Rosner was believed to have been brought into the investigation at the request of Col. Lindbergh two days following the taking of the baby and he has been stationed at the Lindbergh home on Sourland mountain since that time, working haad in hand with Colonel Henry 3. Brecken-ridglegal adviser for the famous couple. It was Rosner who accompanied Breckenridge on a mysterious journey Tuesday of which Lindall bergh personally requested newspapers- - to make- - no mention of until further announcement. Just what transpired on that Journey has not yet been disclosed as no effo.rt was made to trace down the two but it is understood that they met with disappointment in their hope3 to meet the kidnapers of the baby and receive the first actual information since the tiny tot v?as taken from his crib en the second floor of the Lindbergh home a week ago Tuesday.

His freedom cost him $100, OttO. Those are just a few citations from the record of the last year or two. They could be duplicated and reduplicated. TRADES There are today highly organized kidnaping gangs in at least half a dozen large American cities. In Chicago, during the last two years, it is believed that fully 400 kidnapings have taken place. Some 300 have taken place in and around New York. In the country as a whole, it is believed that fully 2000 kidnapings have been committed by organized gangs since the beginning of 1930.
