YANKEE WOMAN'S DISAPPEARANCE
BATTLES POLICE OF THREE NATIONS

from Michigan to New York to Eng
land and to Vienna.
They put together their newest
evidence, especially from New York
sources to narrow down the move
ments of Ivan Poderjay, who biga-
mously married Miss Tufverson,
preceding and following her disap-
pearance.
They questioned and re-question-
ed Poderjay and Nine. Suzanne Fer
rand. his wife, in Vienna where they
are held.
They used trick X-ray lamps on
baggage and clothes of the missing
woman found in Vienna. They sift-
ed the ashes in the incineratCr of
Miss Tufverson's New York apart
ment house.
They sought mysterious English
Captain Frederick Davey, reported
to have disappeared after an ac-
ouaintanee with Nine. Ferrand.
And when they had fitted toge-
ther all of their evidence, the police
of New York, London and Vienna
admitted they could prove practicaI-
ly nothing.
They knew only that Agnes Tuf-
verson, a successful corporation law
yer who had been too busy for love
in her youth, married" Poderjay, in
New York last December, quarreled
with him on the pier from which
they we're to sail for Europe, re-
turned TO their apartment at 10 p.
m.-and disappeared.
They believed, on the basis of re-
ports today, that Poderjay or a man
resembling him. had bought black
trunk next day and taken 1t to the
apartment. They knew that. the day
after that. he took the black trunk
TO the pier and sailed alone.
But actually. the police could not
prove that Miss Tufverson had dis
appeared The facts merely showed
that She had not been located since
December 20.
Most significant In the case, am
azing TO the public and vexing to
the police was the lack OF a corpus
deficit.
Police are convince d that the
strong-willed and capable woman Is
dead. They believed she was muir
dered
But they have no body to prove
she is dead. They have no evidence
that she was murdered. They can't
even be sure they can extradite the
clever bigamist. PoderIay or Poder-
zaj. from Vienna for questioning.

RAMON GOLD
PAYMENTS is
HELD LEGAL

ST. LOUIS, June 20. U.P)-Con-
stitutionality of the action OF con-
press in declaring it against pub
lie policy to make payments in gold
was upheld today by Charles b.
Faris, U. S. district Judge
The decision was in the case OF
trustees of the Missouri Pacific who
petitioned that an outstanding
bond issue, due May l, 1888, be re-
deemed in gold of the same weight
and fineness as prevailed May l,
1903. when the issue was made.
The Reconstruction Finance Cor
poration, and the co-trustees OF
the company, William H. Bixby and
the Bankers Trust Co., New York,
interviewed in the trustees action
to force the issue and determine
validity of the governments gold
policy. :,
Judge Faris' ruling was made IN
one of the first court battles in
the country on the right OF con-
press to suspend gold payments. II
his position is sustained by the
supreme court, it will mean that all
government and private obligations
may be paid in paper money re-
pardless of prior contracts calling
for gold payments.

HITLER AVOIDS
OPEN BREAK
Smooths Over Difference Be-
tween Radical Nazi And Con-
servative Elements.
BY FREDERICK OESCHNER
United Press Staff Correspondent


BERLIN, June 20.-A grave split
in the government between the Jun
ker-conservative faction and the
more rabid Nazi radicals appeared
today to have been smoothed over
at least temporarily.
Chancellor Adolf Hitler refused
to take sides openly in the dispute.
He upheld the actions of both fac
tions leading to the belief that for
the present they would feel con-
strained to get along under sort of
armed truce" without overt action
by either side.
Thus a situation which had grave
implications and might have forced
the Nazis to take open issue against
the powerful non-Nazi elements
supporting them, even risking a
split with President Paul Won Hin
denburg and the army, was quieted
without a public fuss. Indeed, the
public has been blissfully unaware
that crisis had been impending,
because the news of what had been
going on was not published.
The situation came to head with
speech at Marburg university on
Sunday by Vice Chancellor Franz
Won Papen, leader of the conserva-
tives. He attacked the radical cam
paign to muzzle criticism and in
sisted that political leaders must tell
the people the truth.
Paul Joseph Goebbels, minister of
propaganda, had the speech sup
pressed. Won Hindenburg then wired
Won Papen his congratulations.
Won Papen appealed to Hitler, and
it was learned today that Hit
Ter affirmed his agreement with the
contents of the speech.
1t was understood on good author
ity that Chancellor Hitler assured
Won Papen of his confidence.
1t was also understood he said he
would take the opportunity to ac-
knowledge publicly his confidence
in Won Papen.
Won Papen was expected to sub
NIT his speeches in future to Hitler
in person, to avoid a repetition of
the incident.
