However. considering that her marriage

That Lady Howard Of Efingham has the
weapons, natural and acquired 10 be a dam
gerous woman anywhere and had elevated
herself to peculiarly strategic position can
not be denied but did she use those powers
against England?
At this point all theories of what she
could have done in the way Of spying run
into a barrage of impfobabilites A spy must
not only gather information but pass it on to
an agent who can get it to someone who
has means of communicating with the enemy
who is paying for them all.
In war time a spy dare not write nor tele-
phone information to another agent. She must
arrange secret signals for an interview or
contact tactics which involve time and in
genuity. Even more so is the necessity of
keeping in touch with her superior.

has paid the death penalty under that law.
Up TO a certain point it is easy to build
the possibility that Lady Howard Of Effing-
ham might be a dangerous enemy to Britain.
She certainly could have been, for she carries
all the weapons for the-game, also she has the
background and atmosphere

fact that he moved from one hot-spot Of
German intrigue 10 another might have Fifth
Column significance or merely mean that he
was an honest business man, fleeing from the
destroying Nazis.
Likewise it could be thought a special
motive for his daughter, whose name was
Maria Maivin Gerter. to 60 to England where,
after only about two years, she became a
British subject by marrying Lord Howard in
October 1888 There is also the interesting
point that this daughter of a fugitive manu-

money-much more than her husband

deadly questions? Her father-in-law, the old

AS far as I know. Lady Howard has

that there is no one more English than she is"
Her husband stunned by the news, could
only repeat his fathers words A more hope
full, though not entirely satisfactory. theory is
that Lady Howard has been taken into pro-
tective custody. Perhaps she was approached
by the spy organization and pretending to
work for it. betrayed some of its members
to the British. The penalty for such double
crossing is assassination.

Two Stuart PAINTINGS
Added 10 Art Gallery

Two more paintings by Gilbert
Stuart were added yesterday to the
collection of American portraits
now on exhibition at the National
Gallery of Art.
One is a portrait of Sir Joshua
Reynolds, Stuart's teacher, painted
in London in 1884 when Sir Joshua
was president Of the Royal Academy
of London. 1t was commissioned by
Alderman John Boydell to add to
his collection of portraits of artists
who illustrated his edition of
Shakespeare.
The Reynolds portrait, like the
rest Of the American paintings
which were put on exhibition in
two galleries on the ground floor
last Sunday, was purchased by the
late Andrew w. Mellon from the
late Thomas B. Clarke of New York,
and Is now on loan to the National
Gallery by the Mellon Educational
and Charitable Trust.
A portrait by Stuart of Horace
Binney, Philadelphia lawyer, which
was loaned to the gallery by DR.
Horace Binney of Boston, was also
put on exhibition yesterday. Both
pictures were placed in the galleries
of American works on the main
floor.
