JEFFE DEFEATS WIFE IN SEPARATION SUITS Gives Diamonds to Mate, Goes To Jail for Spanking Girl, 16 Kansas City, March 10 (IP) step-father of the girl, Lorene Jones, I jSuit Filed Here Allege That $5,201,000 Was Stolen From Imperial Bank of Russia.

Twenty crimson caskets containing $5 201.000 in Russian gold today were involved in a complicated legal mesh with their ownership at Issue. Suit was filed by the Bank of France in the Federal Court here to recover the gold bars, which are now held by the Equitable Trust Com pany and the Chase National Bank. It was based on the assertion that the metal was stolen from the vault! of the State Bank of the Russian Empire after the Bolshevist revolution, according to the Associated Press. The legal aspect was complicated by the fact that American courts have ruled that the Soviet can neither sue nor be sued, since it is not recog nized by the United States as being legally an entity. Accordingly, it cannot become a party to any legal action connected with the present suit.

Thus trial of the suit was ex pected to raise many intricate ques tions of International law and involve the attitude of the American Government toward the Soviet Government. The gold was sent here from Russia last month to facilitate handling of trading between America and Russia. When it was presented for assay the Treasury Department refused to re ceive it unless the two New York banks would guarantee title to It. Taking the position that they were acting as agents only for Russia, the banks refused to do this. The refusal of assay was based on a seven-year-old embargo on Russian gold established because it was held that title to it was not clearly established.

a. Victim of Sensational "Torn Letter" Scandal Cets Court Decision in Cross-Actions. Ephralm P. Jeffe, of 23 E. 74th Manhattan, former member of the Crescent Club, came out victorious in the cross separation suits brought by his wife, Mr.

Pearl Jeffe, of 1042 Union and himself. Mrs. Jeffs started suit after the sensational "torn letter" scandal of the Crescent Club had been aired in the newspapers. Their parting was a direct aftermath of the scandal, for Jeffe left his wife In the belief that she had caused a great deal of the trouble which could have been avoided. Justice Cailaghan, who heard the evidence in the equity term of Supreme Court, expressed the opinion lhat Mrs.

Jeffe was unreasonably Jealous and that there were no grounds for her attitude. Justice Cailaghan also declared that Mrs. Jeffe had been mainly responsible for her husband's forced resignation from the Crescent Club and nad been responsible for the loss of his position. So he decided that Mrs. Jeffe was not entitled to alimony, and that as Jeffe had "good cause" to leave his wife, he awarded him a decree of separation.

At the trial Mrs. Jeffe told the court that she even then believed her husband had always been "an honorable gentleman," and she said she wanted him to return to her, preferring him to a decree or alimony. JefTe said his wife had caused him a lot of worry and anxiety. The evidence showed that after Mrs. JefTe got news of the finding in the Crescent Club's waste basket by Richard Dieters, a telephone operator, of torn letters, alleged to have been written by Mrs.

Lola Robinson, Philadelphia society matron, to Jeffe, she went on a persistent hunt for Mrs. Robinson and expressed the determination of obtaining evidence to sue Mrs. Robinson for alienation of affections. Jeffe said his wife told him she would get a divorce "for $15,000," and "suggested that he could obtain the money from Mrs. Robinson." The club scandal also disrupted another home and resulted In Mrs.

Margaret White separating from her husband and marrying Edwin L. Butz. lawyer, who was Jeffe's pal In the Crescent Club and other social circle. Mrs. Butz told the court how Intent Mr.

Jeffe had been on suing Mr. Robinson. FATHER AND RON DINNER. The annual father and son dinner of the Men's Club of the New York Avenue M. E.
