and costumes for the stage setting of
her 2 a. m. dash to a retreat, such
as she has occupied Blnce the Inquest
at which a coroner's Jury held the
heir to the Reynolds tobacco fortune

Instead of yesterday's sombre black
gown and heavy veil, Llbby today
wore a snappy sports outfit of tan,
with a comparatively short skirt and
a matching sweater closely moulded
to her figure.

Capt Lancaster
On Stand Today
In Murder Trial
MIAMI, Pla., Aug. flW - Captain
W. N. Lancaster testified in his mur
der trial today that Haden Clarke
had promised him before he left on
a business trip to. the west that he
would care for Mrs. J. M. Keith-Miller
"so that I would remember his
friendship."
The state charges Lancaster shot
Clarke to death after the latter had
replaced him in the affections of Mrs.
Keith-Miller, his Australian flying
partner.
Lancaster said Clarke made the
promise after he had cautioned
Clarke to keep - Mrs. - Keith-Miller
from drinking too heavily during his
absence.
"When she drank heavily her con
duct was not normal," Lancaster
testified. r -
"I spoke confidentially to Haden
before I left about my love for Mrs.
Kelth-Mlller and urged him to take
care of her," the witness continued.
Clarke was shot April 31, less than
12 hours after Lancaster returned
from his western trip on learning
the two planned to marry.
Lancaster told how his admiration
for Mrs. J. M. Kelth-Mlller turned
to love during their London to Aus
tralia flight in 1927-28.
"We were in the public eye at that
time, of course, and after our arrival
in Australia, and we had little oppor
tunity to see each other," he testi
fied. , ,
"Since the long Australian flight,
my love for Mrs. Kelth-Mlller
has
Increased during the years."
Mrs. Kelth-Mlller testified yester
day she no longer loved the memory
of Clarke, who replaced Lancaster In
ber affections, and that she no longer
loved Lancaster although she was In
tensely fond of him. .

return irom East Prussia, which Is
expected tomorrow. Members of the
government were certain they could
secure his approval by telephone.
Meanwhile, speculation on the part
the nazls might play In the new gov
ernment was upset by a vehement
editorial In the naxl Berlin organ, Der
Angrlff, demanding for the nazls "a
decisive influence In the government's
course."
This was Interpreted as meaning
the more radical members of the
party had prevailed upon Hitler to
challenge von Papen for the chan
cellorship. "If we are denied the leadership,"
the editorial concluded, "there Is only
one answer a ruthless fight."
As he prepared to go into action,
Chancellor von Papen, whose manner
usually is nearer breezy than belliger
ent, assumed a new r61e. In a brief
semi-official communique last night
after riots had taken two more lives,
he declared the government would
take the most drastic measures and
added: "Our authority must be wield
ed brutally."
Death Toil High
Since his government took office
