two persons today had been given
sight, with the eyes of an 80-year-

COPENHAGEN, Aug. 10 d.N.S).
The -ormer Barbara Hutton, Amer
ican-born Woolworth heiress, ap-
peared we'll on the way toward
a divorce from Danish Count Court
Haugwitz-Reventlow today after
the Danish government granted
the petition of the estranged
couple for a marital separation.
This was regarded as the first
legal step toward dissolution Of
their marriage in a divorce court
an event expected to take place
here in about year.
SEPARATION HELD VALID
Acting Minister of Justice Buhl
ruled the separation of the couple
valid under Danish law.
The Ministry of Justice thus
formally recognized the legality Of
the private agreement reached by
the couple in London July 20, pro-
viding the count shall have o
share in the upbringing and edu.
cation of their two-year-old son,
Lance.
MAY COME TO U. s.
Meanwhile, the countess, who
went from London to Paris, was
expected to continue on to Italy.
Later, according to London and
Paris rumors, she may return to
the United States to attempt to
regain her American citizenship
which she formally renowned last

SEAL APPEALS
C. H, A. DECISION;
U. S, HANDS OFF
Solicitor Generals Of
flee Drops Case

Although the Solicitor Generals
office today announced it would
not appeal the District Court de-
cision upholding the legality of the
Group Health Association, Corpo-
ration Counsel Elwood Seal de-
clared he would carry the case to
the Court of Appeals.
Citing 13 alleged errors in the
decision of Justice Jennings
Bailey, who ruled that the oper-
atoms of G.. H. A. were entirely
legal, Seal filed notice of his in
tention to appeal.
DISPUTE DECISION
Disputing Justice Bailey's de-
cision that Group Health Associ-
alton cannot be classified as an
insurance organization, Seal said:
THE Bailey decision opens
the doors to a lot of 'gyp' or
CARNATIONS which may rush to
set up so-called group health
protection clinics"
Seal fastened to add that he
did not intend in any way to cast
any reflection upon the response
bility of Group Health ASSocia-
ton.
MAY NEED NEW LAW
If the Bailey decision is allowed
to stand, Seal pointed out, the
District would be unable to invoke
financial responsibility provisions
I of District insurance laws against
so-called cooperative health plans,
and the only alternative would be
to ask Congress for a new law
covering the situation.
Seal said he was not decided
whether to carry the controversy
to the United States Supreme
Court in the event Justice Bailey's
decision is sustained.
The Corporation filed his notice
of appeal as counsel for J. Balch
Moor, superintendent Of insurance
of the District.

A congressional committee inveSti--

to the background of the Berry mar
BILE case.
Committee members displayed in
terest in charges IVA Director David
Lilienthal and H. A. Morgan agreed
to conciliate possible claims for dam
ages after IVA experts reported mar
BILE and mineral leases in the Norris
reservoir area were valueless.
DR.. Arthur Morgan, ousted IVA
chairman, has charged there was Gin
tent to defraud the government" in
the lease purchases and that he
blocked the Cancellation agreement.
E. Dunn, assistant general IVA
counsel, testified yesterday two in
vestigators began checking the lease
purchases in 1887, seeking any evil
dence of "bad faith" on the part of
Senator George Berry, Democrat,
Tennessee, and associates.
Dunn said the Berry interests
bought PAL leases and usually paid 81
each" for them, but in some cases
indications were the dollar was not
paid" The leases provide payment of
ten cents per acre to land owners if
quarrying operations were not be-
gun within a period of two years,

Carroll Will
Plead "Alibi"

South Paris Me-, Aug. 10.-(AP)-
Francis Carroll, former deputy sheriff
took the stand today and sought thro-
ugh an alibi to prove his innocence of
the murder of DR.. James Littlefield,
of which he was accused by Paul
Dwyer, 10, the States star witnesses,
who previously pleaded guilty and is
serving a life sentence for the crime.
Counsel for Carroll, Clyde Chapman,
read list of 36 defense witnesses,
but the name of the former deputy's
daughter, IS, was not included. Dwyer,
in his testimony, had asserted DR..
Littlefield's knowledge of letters in
which Barbara accused her father of
improper conduct, was a motive for
the murder.
Carroll is on trial only for the ply
sician's murder, but the bodies of
both DR.. Littlefield and his wife were
found in an automobile with Dwyer
when he was arrested in North Ar
lington, N. j., last autumn.
Chapman said the defense would
show Carroll attended an American
Legion supper the night the doctor
and his wife were Slain, and that Car
roll went from the supper to the
sheriff's office Carroll was calm
when he took the stand.
