A\l ] / Habn Libel Action Against Du- ¥een, Freach Critic Begins \JURY (QUICKLY SELECTED Kansas City Woman Charges French Expert's Assertion Ruined Sale of Alleged De Vinci Masterpieoe—=So- ciety Folk Throng Oourt. New York, Feb. 5§ P—Trial of the $500,000 libel action brought against 8ir Joseph Duveen, the art authority, by Mrs. Andree Lardoux Hahn of Kansas City and Paris, was begun in supreme coyrt today before Justice Willlam H. Black and & jury. The basis for the action is & news- paper statement, attributed to 8ir Joseph, that the picture “La Belle Ferronlere” which Mrs. Hahn sought to sell to the Kansas City museum of art, was & copy of the famous painting by Leonardo De Vincl, and not the original, as Mrs. Hahn con- tends. This assertion by the expert, she alleged, disrupted negotiations for the sale. Justice Black’s court room was crowded with art experts and so- clety folk. It took less than 15 minutes to pick the jury which includes two ar- tists. Their colleagues rre two real estate agents, an upholsterer, an ac- countant, a hotel clerk, -a shirt manufacturer, a ladies' wear man- ufacturer, a couple of salesmen and one man of no occupation. 8ir Joseph's statement about the picture included the assertion that the original was in the T.ouvre. Mrs. Hahn, wife of Harry Hahn, former American aviation officer whom she married in Chicago during the World War, asserts that the painting, which she vaiues.at $509,- 000, came into her family's posses- sion nine years ago, and that it was once the property of cne of Napo- leon’s aides. She has indicated she would attempt to show that finger prints on the canvas ure those of Leorardo. 8ir Joseph, on the other hand, will endeavor to establish that the can- vas is of a texture not known in the 15th century when the master was at work. When the trial opened Mrs. Hahn and the art expert sat five feet apart. 8o large was the crowd that an extra force of court attendants was put on duty. LAUREL CLUB ACTS ON DEATH OF HAROLD R.

The $24,000,000 item was placed in the bill against the wishes of Sec- retary Mellon, who argued that a plan for expending it should first be formulated. A move to have the house vote directly upon it failed several days ago. After today's conference the sen- ate conferees prepared to return the item for the senate for consideration. The majority of the spokesmen for the house refused to consider the increase in funds for enforcement of the dry law. The senate conferees again demanded that the house be given an opportunity to vote directly cn the measure. Chairman Warren, of the senate appropriations committee indicated he might go before the senate again to ask for new instructions but sen- ate leaders doubted whether any material change could be made in the overwhelming vote by whish the increase was first ordered. The bill in dispute also carries $76,000,000 for tax refunds aund $250,000 for a presidential inquiry into prohibition.
