Rich Society Youth's Letters
Highly Erotic Drew Line
On Color,' Not Morals Mr
Rhinelander's Ordeal Ended
WJIITi; PLAINS, N. V., Nov. 23.
. A. I'.) Tho two "mystery" letters,
whose Introduction in the Hhlnelan
der annulment trial caused two ad
journments and rumors that the cum;
would be settled out of court to keep
them from being made public;, were
placed on the rt-eord this morning.
Thy were read before a court room
that had been emptied of till hut two
women, the latter being newspaper
women.
lioth. tho letters were written from
the Ollft hotel in Ban Kranciseo In
1022 and were concerned with the
pre-marital relations of Alice jUentriec
Jones, daughter of a negro hack
driver, and Leonard Kip Rhinelnnder,
wea 1 1 h y y o u n g socle t man, who is
seeking annulment of their marriage, i
The letters have bten the center of :
a great mystery in. the case, begin- '
nlng last week when Isaac X. Mills, I
counsel for young Rhinelnnder, asked ;
for a recess of several days to give
him an opportunity to investigate (
them. Thoy have been regarded as i
trump cards by Lee Parsons Davis,
counsel for the defendant.
Written by Leonard, they were held
by the defense to offset tho effect of
Alice's letters read at the beginning
of the trial. Their contents admitted
ly ..were more erotic than the love
letters viitlen by Mrs. Khlnelaudcr.
When reading of the letters begun
Alice and her mother left the court
room and remained outside during
the subsequent cross-examination on
their contents. y
, The letters were en oh -'-about A DO..;
Words long and were concerned with
events that occurred when Alice ami
Leonard spent a week at the Hotel
Marie Antoinette in New York in
1 'J2l. picking Up the. second letter,
Which was by far more erotic than
the first, Mr. Davis asked: . .,
"Did you love this girl when you
wrote tbrtt?" -
"Yes," answered Rhinelnnder.
Although ut first he denied these
letters wwe written to lead Alice on,
he admitted that in one of the letters,
written June H, he was trying to
tempt her.
"I had no other outlet to express
my emotions except in my letter,"
he said. "In them 1 put my heart
nnd soul."
"Did you have any letter using thlH
kind of Bluff from Alice?." asked Mr.
Davis.
"No," admitted the witness. I
"Did you intend to make this girl
your wife when you wrote tlst'se let
ters to her?" --'
"I had visions of It." 1
In the midst of his cross exami.nn-.
tion on the mystery letters Mr. Davis
asked tluit the court be cleared In
, order that he might show Alice's skin ,
to the jury. Justice Morshauser Inter
posed an objection and it was agreed
. to retire to the Jury room.
Alice returned , to the rourt room,
and brok into copious tears as she
walked into the jury room.
The party returned from the Jury
room about ten minutes Inter, Alice
if mainlng Inside. Rhinelnnder re
sumed the stand and In response to
tiucMttons. said that her skin appeared
the R.imo color as when he had first
seen it.
"That's all," said Mr. Davis sudden- '
ly. and Hhinelander's ordeal of the
past week was finished. He left the
stand nnd adjournment was taken
until this afternoon when other wit
nesses for the plaintiff will testify.
Just before going into the Jury
room Mr. Davis asked Leonard if
Alice bad ever admitted to htm that
she had been Intimate with another
man before she met her husband.
Kltlnelander said that she had given
this information to him voluntarily,
'"Did this glrlu who Is pictured as
chasing you, confess this?" jinked
Davis.

AIR CRITIC
QUESTIONED
ON CLAIMS
Col. Mitchell On Stand, Tes
tifies PN-9 Flight Doomed
Before Start. Statement
On 'Pacific Parade' Ex
pense High Repeats His
Charges. , s ',
WASHINGTON, Nov. 23. (A.. P.)
Colonel William Mitchell took the
wltneaa Bland today before the court
martial trying him for breach of dis
cipline! aa u re , lit of bia public criti
cisms of the administration of the
army and navy air nurvlcca.
For the third time within a few
months the air crusader repeated
under oath bis reasons for aasalling
those in change of governmental avia
tion and for his advocacy of a larger
air force.
I Much or bis testimony blnged upon
the same points he had stressed last
spring before the house aircraft com
mittee and later before the prealdeut'a
special all- board.
! Asked about hla statement that the
nav yexpendfHl from $40,000,000 to
lNU,OuO,UO0 for Ita "Pacific parade,"
I Colonel Mitchell aald he had obtained
'his Information from discussions with
' other officers.
I '-'Major Oulllon said tho official re
ports of the navy showed the costs
were less than $560,000. ' : '
! Colonel Mitchell aald his statement
of September 20 waa not Intended to
be u "statement of facts, but a state
ment of opinion." , - - i - ,
The witness said be. had reference
to the PN-B No. 1 failure, the Shenan
doah disaster, "and one other thing,"
when he used the language "Incompe
tence," "criminal negleot"and "almpst
traaatmable" lh hla published state
ment, .Asked what "treason" was,, he
replied:.' - . v. ,..-
','Thero are two definition! of trea
son. One is In the constitution, de
fining treason as aiding the enemy
land levying war against' the United
States; the other Is the one -1 bad In
1 mind. 1 believe that the departments
(war and navy) system Is almost '
treasonable In that It does not give a
proper place to the air service of thia
country In the organization of the
national defense of this country."
I In arguing an objection raised by
the defense counsel. Major Oulllon
said Colonel Mitchell had "attacked
honorable officers of the army and
navy; had mal'gued their motives and
had attributed to them . unworthy
ends." , ... .
The argument over whether Major
Uullion should be allowed tu cross
znmlne Colonel Mitchell' on a state
ment he made to tbe bouse military
committee last January, v the court,
overruling the prosecution, held such
examination waa not permlssahle,
Colonel Mitchell testified that he
examined the PN-9 No. 1 before It
undertook to fly to Hawaii and "felt
sure at the, time tbat the ship could
not make the trip."
Asked tr he believed lilnfteH a
better Judge of arrangements for the
Hawaiian flight than the man who
made themCaptain Stanford M.
. Moses of the navy the witness ons
.wered affirmatively. '
i lie then recited a loti.T succession
of recommendations regarding avia
tion made hy him and rejected by tbe -war
department. He said be never
had been able to have a study made
of the precautions a city like New
York ahould take to defend Itself from
an air attack.
I "If an enemy came within 100 mile
of New York," he sn'.il, "he could
stand off In an airship, after picking
up an Identifying point, and I believe
every aerial torpedj he fired would
.fall within an area the iiie of New
York City."
Other things ho had asked for un
successfully, the wltnoss said. Included
a bettor meteorological service for
aviators; maintenance of air inks at
such Institutions ns Culver Military
I academy In Indiana; an all' unit in
'Alaska, and an arrangement with
Canada for airways through Canada
to Alaska, Asia and Kurope. .
"In 1924," he said, VI recommended
