By a Staif Correepondent of T r. COURTHOUSE, Arlingtbn County, Va. February 9.—Mrs. Neva Miller Moss, who claims to be a former Ro- man Catholic n: and who was ar- rested on a charge of “false pretenses” after giving an anti-Cathollic lecture in the Odd Pellows’ Hall at Clarendon last night, was placed under $100 bond here y for appearance in Police Court Baturday morning st 9:30 o'clock. Mrs. Moss' announcement that she will give her lecture tonight women only” was met with a declar: tion by Thomas P. Dolan, jr.. complal ant against the young woman, that “an other varrant will be sworn out again her tonight on a similar charge. Bail for the 34.year-old blonde lec- turer was posted with Police Judge Harry ‘Thomas by Joseph King of Clar- who presided at last night's i endon, meetin; A crowded courtroom of tense spec- tators was present for the arraljgnment this morning, many of the onlookers being fashionable dressed women. There was no disorder in the room, but Dolan and the woman's youthful husband en- gaged in a heated dispute in front of the courthouse later, which ended quickly. Gloth Asks Continuation. Continuance of the c was asked by Commonwealth’s Attornsy Willium C. Gloth, who inlormed the conrt an essential witness could not reach here from out of town in time for the trial today. Gloth declared that in jus- tice to all concerned the case :houl be given “very careful consideration.” Dolan later sald that the Important witness was the son of the chief justice of the Pennsylvania Sup.eme Court, who had investigated Mrs. [Moss’ claims. The defense demanded a bill of par- ticulars, which the court ordered the plaintiff to produce Saturday. The warrant for Mrs. arrest was sworn to late last nigat by Dolan before Justice of the Peace N. A. Rees o Clarendon and charged lit» dekendant with accepting money from the peti- tioner under false protenses. b The warrant was ‘served by d Fields, who went to the thehwomln finished t COSTES AND LEBRIX TO GO TO NEW YORK, THEN HOP TO PACIFIC (Continued from PFirst Page.) cabled his mother “our delizht to a rive here.” The navigator. of the Nun rcsur-Coll declared, “We are particu: arly pleased to reach America, because we spent all last Summer hoping to fly ::,'5 directly across the North Atlun- “But.” he added, “we do not want to §0 back to Paris by plane, because Lind- bergh has already done that.

Who knows?” Want to See America, Returning to the pregzent, Lieut. Comdr. Lebrix sald: “We want to see America, We shall fly as far as San Prancisco after New York, probably stopping at a few of the biggest citles, perhaps Detroit, Chicago, Omaha and Salt Lake City. After that we hope to %0 bsck to Prance by ship across the Pacific, but the arrangements are not yet definitely settled. At any rate, we shall not fly back either across the Atlantic or the Pacific.” The fyer emphasized that this is not his first visit to Americs, explaining that in 1920, when a midshipman on | the French naval training nhlw:rmnc d'Arc " he viiited Annapoli: ashing- | wn and New Orleans, “But I know nothing of American flyinz yet," he added “and I have seen none of your commercial aviation development. We hope to do that on our way to San Prancisco.’ Early this afternoon the fiyers are guests of honor at a luncheon given at the Mayflower Hotel by the three as. sistant ~ sacretaries for aeropautics— Willlam P, MacCracken, jr., of the Commerce Department; Edward P. Warner of the Navy Department, and F. Trubce Davison of the War Depart ment. Each assistant secretary selected 12 guests and these, together with the guests of honor and hosts brought the party to a total of 41. Among those present are: Becretary Hoover, Becretary Wilbur, Secretary of War Davis, Undersecretary of State Olds, Assistant Secretary of War Rob- bins, Benators Hale and Borah, Repre- sentative Theodore Burton, Rear Ad- miral Willlam A.

Reward Offered for Proof. Dolan is said to have based his plea for a warrant on the ground that Mrs. Moss had recelved from him the sum of 35 cents for admisison to hear an “ex- nun,” whereas, he alleges, her claim to having been a nun is false. His allega- tion has the support of the Edward Douzlas White Council, Knights of Co- lumbus, which has circylarized Claren- don with posters offering $500 reward to any one proving she was ever a nun. Mrs. Moss arrived in court in com- pany with her husband and their attor- n2y. H. W. Dudley. She wore ex- nensive brown fur coat, a small hat and a rainbow-hued scerf. Neither she nor her husband testified. Dudley protested atnst Gloth's demand that Mrs. Moss e placed under bond and a Do- lan’s Interjection that “she has walked away in er places where she has been arrey ind not bond Gloth de- clared Mrs. Moss “might leave after het szcond lecture tonight.” The lecture tonight will be on the same subfect as last night, “Behind Con- vent Walls."!

The chances of recovery from a forced landing of either type were about Finally an opportunity came for to get within sight of the ground. so they droped to about sixty feet above the tree tops. Then the mist, rain and fog surrounded them in and in order to keep land In sight, which cvery alrman prefers, they had to hold to this hazardous altitude. Visibility Was Poer. “We couldn't see 100 feet ahead, to the left or to the right,” Lieut. Comdr. Lebrix re) d. ‘This officer navigated while Licut. Costes piloted. The maps given them served of little or no useful for the first 300 miles no landmark sighted to check and on the rei 500 miles It was just & case of hopping.” Hence. Lieuf famed navigating abllity once more was put to a useful purpose. As they roared along over the tree- tops the fiyers expec! momentarily to get a break in the muggy condition that surrounded them, but were unsuc- cessful. Now and then the, through a clear a brief, considering the speed traveled at.
