into the veracity of afidavits filed by
two nurses who accused Mary Nolan,
film actress, of addiction to narcotics.
The nurses, Caroline Clark and Claire
Anderson, were summoned for question
ing regarding their sworn statements
they had seen the actress use drugs in
considerable quantities while they were
attending her.
Miss Nolan, recovering at Hollywood
hotel from a severe case Of sunburn,
termed the charges too ridiculous for
words" She told Vincent De Spain,
chief Federal narcotic agent, she was
the victim of a plot to extort money.
De Spain refused to use three search
warrants for the actress apartments
after he examined her at the hospital
and declared he found no evidence OF
her having used narcotics.
Although the nurses alleged certain
physicians had supplied Miss Nolan
with narcotics without requiring pre-
scriptions, police said they had un-
covered evidence of only one occasion
of the sale of a drug to the actress and
that the lone sale was on a prescription.
Miss Nolan several years ago starred
