Duveen Suit Casts
Doubt on Mona Lisa
As a True Leonardo
Attorney in $50O,OOO s'La
Belle Ferroniere'' Suit
Going TO Paris to See En-
pcrts on Louvre Paintings

Serious doubts have been cast lately
upon the authenticity Of the paintings
by Leonardo da Vinci in the museum
of the Louvre, as a result of contro-
versy precipitated by the LA Belle
Ferroniere" suit against Sir Joseph
Duveen the Fifth Avenue art dealer.
Developments in the controversy,
which is being wagcd by experts in
the English language newspapers of
Paris, according to Hyacinthc Rngrose,
have strengthened materially the case
Of Nine. Andree Hahn, for whom he in
stitutcd 100000 Libel action here
against Duvecn. Many are of the opin-
ion that none of the works in the Paris
museum, long associated with the name
of the great Italian master, are in
reality his own, Ringrose said Even
the famous "Mona Lisa has been
doubted
The recent trend of expert opinion,
MIR Ringrose added, supports the facts
in his proof that the Hahn LA Belle
Ferronierc" is real Leonardo and
not a copy, as Sir Joseph was reported
in a local newspaper to have called it,
The suit for damages, alleged to have
been sustained by his appraisal is
pending in the local courts. In the
mean time both sides are going about
the difficult task of obtaining positive
proof of the pictures standing as a
work of art.
The statement of Count Paul Der
rieu, a Paris art expert, that the paint
ing supposed to be ia Belle Fer
roniere" in the Louvre is not LA
Belle Ferroniere" is regarded by Mr.
Ringrose as a significant disclosure
The count, according to the latter
shows by the facts he has unearthed
just how little has been authoritatively
known concerning the history Of Leon
ardo's work.
Derrieu maintains that the titles
points out that the French expert
fscated during the French Revolution
One of them, a profile portrait attrib-
uted to Leonardo, or at least to the
Lombard school, was taken from the
Versailles collection. 1t bore the
name Ola Belle Forroniere" The
other one. however received its name
and the real LA Belle" was put in
storage. 1t was later revived as No.
1905 in the catalogue, according to the
expert.
Mr.. Ringrose will depart shortly for
France to cross-eXamine witnesses who
testified in behalf of Sir Joseph Du-
veen regarding the merits of the Hahn
picture. While there he will obtain
expressions of opinion from those who
recently criticised the Louvre's woks
by Leonardo.

PROHIBITION A BOON
TO GLASS MAKERS

CHICAGO Omitted Press)-Pro-
hibition has proven a boon TO the
manufacturers OF whlskey, wine and
beer glasses.
More OF these have been made and
sold since the United States became
a Sahara than in the heyday OF John
Barleycorn.
This was brought out at the eN-
hibit Of pottery and glass which
opened here today az the Hotel Nor
rison, under the auspices OF the
Glass Pottery Lamps and House
Furnishings Association. The ex-
hibit will continue until February IS.
More whiskey, wine and beer
glasses. and a greater variety have
been made and sold since prohibition
than when there were wide-open So
looms" said j. W. Power. secretary
OF the association.
"Home brewing is one OF the
causes. People who never had
whiskey glasses before in their
homes now possess them.
More ingenuity has been used by
the manufacturer in making OF the
glasses. Many are made with a solid
bottom and so fashioned that. while
they have all the appearance OF the
/ old time whiskey glass, they only
hold about a thimble full"

This office. (third floor post office
building) will remain open tomor-
row afternoon for the purpose OF as
sisting taxpayers in completing their

said;
In addition, Mr.. Graham urged all
who have liability to the govern
ment. or are in doubt as TO their
liability. to avail themselves OF SAT-
urday afternoon. II they cannot
reach the office at any other time,
in order to satisfy the requirements.
BY so doing, much waiting and con-
fusion during the last minute rush
will be avoided by the taxpayer and
better service made possible.
Many people are now filing their
