Hoover intended to lead the search himself for the abducted child James Bailey Cash Jr., the 5-year-old son of a well-situated businessman. Hopes that the child will be found alive are low, after the kidnapper didn't release the boy despite the payment of the 10,000 dollar ransom by his father., 04.06.1938 Foto: Sueddeutsche Zeitung / IBL Bildbyrå
