Reference is rate to letter from this office to the Division dated Februery 12, 1934, transnitting letent fineerprints fourd at the residence of Vernon C. Miller, 6612 Edrevale Road, Kansas City, Kissour1, tog*ther with a list of susvects, whose finger- prints it wes requested be compared with the latent prints. A copy of thet letter was transmitted to the St. Peul offiee with report of Svecial Agent ¥. F. Trainor dated at Kansas City, Missouri, 2-20-34, in the case of alvin Kerpis, et al, Kiinaping, Edward G. Bremer, Victim, es Will be noted on page siz of that report. It is nor suggested thet the fingerprints of Wm. Hemm be also compared with the Patent fincerprints found at the residence of Vernon C. Miller. Horever, these latent nrints were taken from a telephone, a clock and several beer bottles. It would be improbeble thet Favm's prints would be found on any of the objects axcert poa- sibly on a beer bottle, if he were held captive et Miller's resi- derce. In the report of Agent Trainor dated at Kensas City, Missouri, July 3, 1933, in the instant metter, you rill note on page trenty-three, in e memorendum by Svectal agent in Charge Dwight Brant- ley, that during a seerch of the premises at 6612 Edgevale Road, there wes discovered an ettic room, which hei epparently been used for the herboring of an invalid, or wounded person.

As to the exact identity of the individual who rurchased the Esser car in Kane Bas City, it is pointed out thet no definite identification has been made.
