Such a vacation ham never been SO said today his remark Curtis was just a man with wild dreams about boats and things' was misunderstood. Fisher said his statement, while Curtis was before the Hunterdon County Court for sentence yesterday were Interpreted to Imply he never believed his client was in contact with the kidnapers.

He said he believed Curtis' statement he was in contact with people who represented themselves to be the kidnapers or their representatives and passed on his information for what it was worth. Fisher said his remarks to the court in substance were: "From the contacts that he had there came a dream of service; a dream to aid a distinguished coun- trymanf a dream unfortunately that never came true. He was just a man with a knowledge of boats and things and he tried in his own way to help a distracted parent." Seek Suspended Sentence Norfolk, Va. (fP) A move to se cure a suspension of the jail sentence imposed on John Hughes Cur tis, given a yearvin jail and a ftne of $1,000 at Flemington, N. yesterday for alleged obstruction of justice in the Lindbergh baby kid naping murder case, was announced by W.

C. Pender, Norfelk counsel representing the Curtis family and friends of the accused. "The' sentence is outrageous and entirely unreasonable," Mr. Pender declared with vehemence. "The record of the trial shows that beyond any question.

"The only course open to us Is to try to secure a suspension of the jail sentence on payment of the fine, or to permit the appeal toward which a writ of error has been secured. "Friends of Curtis are now busily engaged trying to raise funds that will be used either for the payment of the fine if the court will suspend the jail sentence, so as to secure John's immediate release or to pay the costs of the appeal. It is estimated that the appeal will cost from $1,000 to $2,200 that amount being necessary to pay for printing the voluminous record." O. E. S.

Be FrenchCompleting Plane for Flight Into Stratosphere Biliancourt, France (JPy France topes within six months to enter the race for the conquests of the itratosphere. In the Farxnan airplane works, on he banks of the Seine, behind bolt-id doors and pledged to secrecy, engineers and skilled workmen are putting the finishing touches to a huge 500 H. P. monoplane.

Goal Is 50,000 Feet When it is completed, the stratospheric airplane will be taken to the airport of Toussus-le-Noble where the first test flight will take place. It will be followed by other experimental flights aimed at at taining a height of 50,000 feet above the earth's surface. A feature of the new aircraft is its enormous wing area and its all-metal air-tight cabin which can accommodate three to four persons. Its circular conning-tower surmounting the air-tight cabin gives it the shape of a submarine. Inside tkt cylindrical cabin is an instrument board and a dozen gadgets all suggesting the interior of a submarine.

Wing Surface Enormous In building an enormous wing surface, the designers had in mind the fact that in the thin stratosphere where the propeller and wings are much less effective than at heights of 5,000 to 10,000 feet a food deal more lifting power may be required for successful operation. If all the hopes of the designers are fulfilled, the machine, when at an altitude of 48,000 to 50,000 feet, will develop a speed of 480 miles an hour which will bring New York Within 8 hours 0f Paris. Take-off Difficulty Seen It is pointed out that owing to its excessive load it is equipped with Ave radiators the new Farman may experience some difficulty In taking off. The ascension to the thin cold areas is not expected to begin before six months, as the new ma- thine will be subjected to various tests and alterations made Spans Damaged In Strike Riot Athens, Ohio A man was killed and two railroad bridges damaged as the result of fresh flare-ups of mine strike trouble at Chauncey, Athens County, last night and early today. The dead man Ray Freeman, 18, of Buchtel, was shot through the chest and was believed to have fallen during exchanges of shots between Ohio National Guardsmen and unknown persons who fired on the soldiers' camp shortly after midnight.

The Kanawha and Michigan Railroad bridge at Albany was fired but the blaze was extinguished before serious damage resulted. Authorities said the bridge had been soaked with oil and fire applied. A terrific explosion early today which officials said was caused by dynamite, shook the Chesapeake and Ohio main line bridge at Chauncey, badly damaging the central portion of the structure. The trouble started at Chauncey yesterday when about 15 men, went to the Manhattan No. 25 mine.

They were brought in by train, but on reaching Chauncey, found a crowd had gathered at the station. Fearing a disturbance, officials sent the train over a branch line to the mine, where the workers were detrained. Stand by America Is Plea to Elks in GrandConvention Birmingham, Ala.

Keim. The local marker has been placed on Route 30 between the highway intersection of Church Street and Parker Avenue. Upon it is emblazoned this mes sage: "Flemington Raid" "December. 1776, Captain John Schenck and his men attacked a raiding British party, under Captain Geary, between Copper Hill and Larison's Corner. Geary was killed and was buried near the scene of the skirmish.

Washington passed through here November, 1780." Lambertville marker is opposite the rubber mills on the River Road to Washington's Crossing. It reads: "Coryell's Ferry, Lambertville.
