BGbs Reported Nearing
u. s. Shores AS Alien
Docks Late Today,
Seeks to Regain
Citizenship

NEW YORK, Oct. 10 U.N.S0.
The Countess Barbara Haugwitz-
ReventIow, the former Barbara
Hutton, will return to her native
country today when the French
liner Normandie docks here at
$50 p. M, those close to the
countess said, according to an ex-
elusive story in the Journal.Amer-
tican.
The story added:
Her marriage to the titled Dan
ish nobleman, Count Court Haug-
witz-Reventlow, having crashed in
a welter of charges this summer,
the heiress to $4,000, 900 Of the
Woolworth five-and-ten-cent store
fortune is believed to be returning
home in an effort to regain her
American citizenship, which she
renounced last December.
Trying to "Slip In"
The countess was believed totbe
trying to slip Into, the Uufted
States unobserved. as her name
was not listed on the, ships mani
fest, and high officers of the Nor
mandie denied she was aboard.
Belief that she is a passenger
was strengthened by the disclosure
that her stepmother, Mrs. Frank
lyn L. Hutton, and her two cousins,
James and Woolworth Donahue,
are on the ship.
James Donohue has been a fre.
quent companion of Barbara's,
and accompanied her on a trip
around the world shortly after her
first marriage, to the polo playing
Prince Alexis Mdivani.
Father in N. Y.
Her father, Franklyn L. Hutton,
who has been staying at the
Waldorf-Astoria since his arrival
here from Europe Saturday on the
liner Manhattan, refused either
to confirm or deny the report that
"BabS''' was on the Normandie.

BLACK, REED
DISSENT; LAST
HOPE|SPARDON
Mrs. Hahn's Peti-
ton Also Rejected

T.N.S.) The Supreme Court
today denied the petition Of
Thomas j. Mooney, interna-
tionally known labor prisoner,
for a writ of review, and thus
blasted his hope of obtaining
freedom through court action.
The high courts ruling ended a
2O-year legal battle. MONEYS
only hope now rests upon an ap-
plication for a pardon.
Convicted of murder for COM
plicity in the San Francisco pre-
pardedness parade bombing of
1915, Mooney is serving a life
term in San Quentin prison.
Hahn Plea Denied
The court in another decision
today denied an appeal by blonde
Anna Marie Hahn, under sentence
Of death in Ohio, for a writ Of re-
view.
Mrs. Hahn, charged with hav.
ing poisoned benefactors to obtain
money, was indicted for the
deaths Of aged Jacob Wagner and
George Ghellmen. She was con.
victed in the Wagner case.
Another loser today was Charles
Lucky" Luciano, convicted as
overlord Of prostitution in one of
District Attorney Thomas E.
Dewey's first big battles against
New York gangdom.
He also lost an appeal for a writ
of review.
Luciano, who was charged with
exacting huge sums from oper.
ators of houses of prostitution,
faces 30 to so years in prison.
Black Dissents
The Mooney petition apparently
was rejected by a 6-to-2 vote Of
the court. It was announced that
Justices Hugo Black and Stanley
Reed dissented.
No further explanation was
gwen. Presumably the other six
justices failed to find a Federal
constitutional question Of suffi.
cient Importance in the Mooney
case to justify intervention by the
court.
The court, without explanation,
noted in its denial Of MONEYS
petition for review, a decision Of
the California Supreme Court re-
cusing an appeal for freedom on
a writ Of haheas corpus. The
California court has refused to
grant MONEYS plea on three oc.
CaSions.
Congress Fight
In appealing to the court,
Mooney contended that he was
convicted on perjured evidence.
He maintained that his constitu
tional rights were invaded both
because he was thus convicted and
because the State supreme court
held that he could not be granted
a new trial because the alleged
perjured evidence was discovered
too late.

The midnight agony and be-

SUBMISSION OF THE
SUFFERING SERVANT -
MARX 15:22-2S)
Jesus was Crucified with Rob-
bers. That was the bravest and
the kindest thing that Jesus ever
did. Angels would have been glad
to rescue him. He could have saw
ed himself from the agony and
the ignominy.. Yet ne went will
ingly to the altar of supreme sac
rifice. When the executioners and
the victims and rabble reached
Skull-Hill outside the city limits
he was offered drug
ged wine which was designed to
deaden the pain. He refused to
drink it. With faculties unclouded
he would endure the cross. So
they nailed him hands and feet
to the rugged tree. The execu-
TONERS took his clothes as their

parting his outer garment among
them and casting lots for the
seamless undergarment to ascer-
tain which of the four soldiers
should have it. The title dictated
by PLATE declaring Jesus the
King of the Jews was affixed to
the cross over his head. Two
thieves were crucified with him,
one on the right hand and the
other on the left, thus fulfilling
the prophecy of Isaiah that ne
was to be numbered with trans

Jesus was Challenged by Pas

naughty mockery challenged his
word about the Temple when he
referred early in his ministry to
the temple of his body which
should rise from the ruins Of
death and not to the Temple
cresting Mount Moriah. The chief
priests and Scribes challenged his
work as Saviour failing to recog-
nize the fact that by giving his
life was he to save the lives of
others. They challenged his title
as king of the Jews, daring him
in blasphemous terms to come
down from the cross in order to
them of his Messiahship.
Even, the crucified thieves Joined
