National Affairs: For Dillinger: $10,000

To Mrs. Eulalia Callender of Galion, Ohio wrote Mrs. Audrey Hancock of Maywood, Ind. last week: "John is alive. . . . We heard from John. He is well. We don't know where he is hiding. I wish I did know. We have so much mail for him. . . . I don't believe he would surrender. He doesn't trust anyone."

Mrs. Hancock is the sister of Desperado John Dillinger, for whose arrest the Department of Justice last week posted a $10,000 reward. Only Federal charge against Dillinger: violation of the Dyer Act (interstate transportation of a stolen car).

For Dillinger's chief henchman. George ("Baby Face") Nelson, charged with murder of a Department of Justice agent, the Department offered a reward of $5,000.
