Haugwitz- Reventlow's defense would
be denial he had made any threats.
Birkett represented the Duchess of
Windsor in her divorce from Ernest
Aldrich Simpson.
Large crowds jammed around the
dingy court building but only q few
were admitted to the magistrate s
small room.
charge number 13, Count Revent-
low" the bailiff called out.
The court stepped to the dock and
bowed smartly to Sir Rollo.
Firearms Discussed.
Sir Patrick Hastings, the countess
counsel, asked that Haugwitz- -Revent-
low not communicate with the coun-
tess. Birkett quickly agreed.
There is just one other matter"
Sir Patrick added. Il am told there
is question of a firearm. I under
stand from Birkett that the count
does not now carry a firearm."
Il don't want to 60 into that"
Birkett replied. He has got a license
to do SO. But in open court before Mr..
Fry Magistrate Fry, who first heard
charges against the count) Sir Pat
rick emphasized very strongly that the
count was in possession of firearm.
That firearm is now in his house
In Regents Park and 1t has not been
In the possession OF the count at any
material time"
After arranging bail, the count left
court In q taxi.
He was confronted by reports that
the countess was planning to take
Lance on long vacation in Italy. She
was understood to have made reserva-
tions at Venice hotel for the end of
this month.
Countess Motive Uncertain.
The countess motive in placing
Lance in the courts custody was seen
as possible step toward either re-
conciliation or divorce.
If she sought to settle their differ
ences, it was pointed out, both par
ents were put on equal footing in de-
Gliding on Lance's up-bringing-re-
portedly the cause Of their quarrel
by making the child a ward in chan
cery.
As such, Lance's education would be
directed by the courts and the countess
would not even have the right to take
him to Italy without their permission.

LONDON. July IA spruce but un-
appy-appearing Count Court Haug-
witz-Reventlow arrived from France
today and won his freedom on 1000
(sl0,000) bail when hustled before a
Bow Street magistrate on the charge
he threatened his wife, the American
born. twice-wed Barbara Hutton, with
bodily harm"
In his brief appearance in court
he promised not to interfere with or
communicate with her and told the
magistrate through his attorney that
be was not carrying a pistol.
The gun, he said, was locked up
in the Georgian-style mansion in
Regents Park, where the countess has
fortified herself and 2-year- r-old son
Lance behind a guard.
The proceeding was part of the
quarrel over the future of the boy,
who yesterday was made . ward IN
hancery-beyond the control Of both
count and countess
Returning to England after q three
weeks absence to face the countess
charges, the Danish nobleman was
met upon his arrival on the Paris boat
train by police and his lawyers and
was sped to the dingy Bow Street
Police Court in q big green car.
The countess was not in court. Her
specific charge was that he had writ
ten letter using threats toward his
wife whereby she apprehends she goes
in danger of her life or bodily harm. :"
A hearing was scheduled for Tues
day. Since the bond Of f1,000 was on
"his own recognizance" he was not
obliged to put up the cash.. Should he
fail to appear Tuesday. however. steps
could be taken to confiscate his prop
erty.
An additional surety bond of FL 900
was required. Standing for half the
surety was Maj Peter VESSEL.
Agrees Not to See Wife.
Standing rigidly in dock, the count
made just one statement-when the
court asked him to refrain from carry
ing gun and not to see his wife.
Il certainly give this undertaking +"
His voice was firm. but he appeared
unhappy and weary after an overnight
crossing from Paris. Upon arriving
he was whisked directly to the court in
a police car.

LONDON, July 1.-High-ranking Of
flcers of Britain's army and permanent
officials of the war Office are expected
to be summoned before the select COM
mittee of the House of Commons which
today prepared to investigate the rights
OF members of Parliament to secrets of
the national defense.
At least part of the inquiry into
Duncan Sandys' charges that Attorney
General Sir Donald Bradley Somervell
threatened him with prosecution under
the Official Secrets Act-Britain'S law
against spies-will be heard in, public.
1t was Sandys' possession of docu-
ment of highest secrecy" from which
he proposed parliamentary interroga-
ton of War Minister Leslie Hore-
Belisha to reveal alleged defects in the
nations vital air defense, which pre-
cipitated the clash between Commons
and army.
Mr.. Hore-Belisha and Mr.. Sandys,
30-year-old son-in-law of Winston
Churchill and one of the "glamor boys"
of Commons who support Anthony
Eden, the former foreign minister, were
expected to be star witnesses.
Sir John Gilmour, former home sec
retary, was expected to be chosen
chairman of the powerful board of IA
members. The chairman's order to
appear before the committee has the
force of a subpoena.
Those summoned will not have the
benefit of legal representatives with
out the express permission of Parlia-
ment Refusal to appear, produce
documents or answer questions will be
contempt of Parliament, punishable
by imprisonment.
Parliament hoped the committee
would report before the House rises at
the end of July, but the investigation
was certain to be lengthy.
Debate Is Debarred.
Debate, and even questions on the
subject, is debarred in Parliament un-
til the board reports.
Among other things, the committee
will decide if Mr. Sandys must appear
before military tribunal constituted
to learn how the information leaked
out to the Parliament member.
The tribunal submitted to a decision
Of the Privileges Committee of COM
mons yesterday, pending full inves-
tigation, and Cancelled its summons
for him to appear in his uniform as
a y, 0f
army and tell how he got the conf
dental information.
The tribunals summons brought q
slashing attack from Mr.. Churchill,
who declared the secrets act was de
vised to protect the national defense"
and not ito shield ministers who have
neglected the national defense"

Scheid
Continued From First Page. }

OF his sedan on Lee highway, at the
top of Cherrydale hill. shortly after
O'Clock on the morning Of March 20.
Scheid said he and Policeman Knox
who told corresponding story to the
jury last night, followed Mr.. Daugh-
erty's car from Falls Church for 4
miles to arrest him for speeding. The
police officers testified they finally
forced Mr.. Daugherty to halt, where
upon he attempted to run them down
as they approached his car on foot.
Tell Of Shooting.
Mr.. Daugherty cut his wheels so
suddenly toward them, the officers
agreed. that they tumbled over each
other in jumping out of the way and
fired their service guns while off bal
ance. Scheid said he shot at the
front tire as the machine advanced
upon him and later at a rear tire and
gasoline tank when the car passed.
Scheid said he shot five times in an
effort to halt the car and Knox once.
Scheid was indicted because of a
balllstics test indicating the slug
taken from Mr., Daugherty's brain was
f1red from his gun. Knox, under in
dictment for aiding and abetting in the
shooting, probably will not be tried
II Scheid is acquitted.
Defense Counsel Frank L. Ball in
structed Scheid to dress in his police
uniform to show the jury that Mr..
Daugherty must have seen Scheid was
policeman when the latter stepped
Into the headlight beams of the WASH
1ngton motorists car.
Scheid put on the blue coat and CAP
and buckled into the heavy Sam
Browne belt in which his gun was
suspended at the hip. He set his
black police boots in front of him on
the witness stand.
Were you and Knox dressed in
this manner when you halted Mr..
Daugherty's car?" Mr.. Ball asked.
Scheid replied in the affirmative.
Scheid said he and Knox took up
the chase near the railway track in
Falls Church when the car passed
them at a high rate of speed. The
defendant said he was driving the
police car and their speedometer was
hitting near 80 miles an hour as they
drove down Lee Highway out of Falls
Church.
Says Siren Was Blown.
The defendant said he never lost
sight Of the fugitive car and that
several times they drew near and blew
the police siren, but the motorist would
not halt.
The fugitive car turned of Lee
highway. Scheid said, and took a
circuitous route for several miles, the
car finally going back on the highway.
In response to questions of his at
torney, Scheid said the lights were
on the police car during the chase
and he understood he had authority
to pursuie motorist anywhere in
Virginia as long as he kept him In
sight.
The prosecution previously had in
troduced testimony that the police car
was running without lights. This
was testified to by milkman and by
two occupants of car forced from
the highway as the police car pulled
abreast Of Mr.. Daugherty's machine
and forced it to halt on Cherrydale
Hill.
Scheid confirmed the statement of
Knox that the latter accidentally
turned off the lights for a moment
when he reached for the siren button
and got hold of the light switch.
Scheid explained that they forced
Mr.. Daugherty to halt by blowing tha

If we were able to send to each o1
cur friends a holiday greeting, which
is impossible, we felt that it would
not express our feelings, as we have
gone from home to home, over not
only Morgan county, but we nave
met friends at every turn. Then
through the years we have heard
pleasant words from other parts Of
our country. SO far no card or fold
er has been produced that would ex
press what we want to say. To the
sick, to bereaved, to the aged, to the
ycung, to the weak, to the strong, we
feel it, and hope you understand.
Death at any time, and under any
circumstance is sad, but when il
comes, as did that of Ruth Bone, il
comes as a flash out of a clear sky
to the family, and as a shock to the
neighbors and friends. The fact
that neighbors and friends could not
be with the family in the trying
hours made it doubly sad, yet it did
not 1eep them from expressing their
sorrow and sympathy.
We learn with sadness of the
death of our friend Madison White
to the family we extend our sincere
sympathy.
Our good E. Bloom correspondent
took us on a high pedestal when she
told that Mrs. Baker our biscuit
maker, was home, then dash down
we went. When we found she was
misinformed. All we can see to do
about it, we will stay for dinner and
supper when she does come. Above
all we are glad she is improving
from her long illness. (Later) We
met Mrs. Baker whom we know az
"Bide'' in town Saturday and we
don't know, she may weep when the
minister says: earth to earth, dust
to dust" when they drop yours

we hone we NAV both he shared sh.
