; Sure of Acquittal in U. S. on;
I Bigamy Charges. Says
I Austrian.
*
By the Associated Près».
BRENNER PASS. Austrian Frontier,
' January 12.—"So sure am I of
' acquittal In the United States," Ivan
' Poderjay said at this frontier station
today, "that I am now making plans
* to return to Europe and marry Su
if ranne Ferrand."
f The self-styled former Army cap
» tain, en route from Austria to New
r York to face trial on bigamy charges,
t termed the accusation against him
I "ridiculous," asserting "I'm a bach
elor."
; Seemingly confident the American
courts would absolve him of the big
amy charge and investigation would
clear him of any blame for the dls
i appearance of Agnes Tufverson, New
' York and Detroit attorney, immedi
i ately after their marriage in NçW
York. Poderjay said:
"It is true that I was married to
Suzanne Ferrand. But then the au
thorities declared our marriage void
\ for technical reasons."
Living Near Paris.
» The French woman, with whom he
r was living at the time he was ar
f rested in connection with Miss Tuf
, versons' disappearance, has been liv
ing quietly near Paris since Austrian
authorities released her from custody,
Poderjay said.
"This time we shall see to it," he
said, firmly, "that all legal formalities
ι in connection with his proposed re
marriage) are observed. I look for
ward to a happy future."
Poderjay, who police say has had
at least three wives, exhibited the
' -*ime self-possession and cocksureness
that characterized him when he was
first arrested six months ago.
From the subject of the bigamy
charges on which Austria granted his
extradition, and the mysterious dis
appearance of Miss Tufverson. he
jumped to the topic of patents and
■politics.
"I adhere to my idea of pan-Euro
peanism," he said, "and international
peace." Concerning his patents, he
iaid:
"I have 25 patents on various
devices registered in all the cultured
itates of the world. I shall devote
my time to development of these after
the American courts liberate me from
this absurd charge of bigamy."
Licenses as Evidence.
Although Jacob von Weisenstein,
New York detective, who will accom
pany Poderjay to the United States,
has in his possession copies of mar
riage certificates showing Poderjay
was married not only to the Ferrand
woman, but also to Miss Tufverson.
the prisoner clung to his assertion
that he is still single.
"As far as Miss Tufverson is con
cerned," he said. "I can only say that
' we parted good friends when I left
* New York.
» "She agreed to go her way and I
* my way. I have no idea as to what
r became of her, but I'm certain she
φ is still living."
Φ As the Italian train drew out of the
station into the snowbound Italian
„ Alps, Poderjay waved good-by to the
Associated Press correspondent.
"I hope you'll send me copies of
* the photos you took of me to the
» prison in New York." he cried.
El'ROPE SUPPLIES EVIDENCE.
r Detective Ssys Poderjay Has No
* Chance to Be Acquitted.
* VIENNA, January 12 (/Pl.—To Ivan
0 Poderjay's assertion that he is still
Φ single, Jacob von Weisenstein, the de
t tcctive who will take Poderjay to
New York to face bigamy charges, to
* day retorted:
"It's the swan song of a braggart."
"Poderjay may dream of the New
.*· York courts' liberating him," the de
tective said, "but his dream won't be
realized because we've got the goods
on him."
„ The New York detective, who will
leave Vienna tonight for Genoa to
take Poderjay into his custody aboard
the liner President Polk, said he had
gathered considerable evidence in Eu
rope to support the American charges
* that Poderjay. when he married Agnes
' Tufverson at the Little Church Around
the Corner in December, 1933, was al
' ready wed to another.
> Included in that evidence, he as
v ierted. is a photostatic copy of a mar
„ riage license issued in London show
ing that Poderjay married Suzanne
Ferrand, French woman, there in
March, 1933. and copies of Austrian
police records proving Poderjay and
the Ferrand woman registered in
Vienna as husband and wife.

YOUNGEST AIR PASSENGER
LEAVES WASHINGTON.
V
To young Miss Patricia Turn
bull, 14 days old. shown here in
the arms of her mother. Mrs.
William J. Turnbull, goes the dis
tinction of being the youngest air
passenger to leave Washington.
Mother and baby took off from
Washington Airport for Boston
yesterday afternoon in an Ameri
can Airlines airliner. Mrs. Turn
bull was visiting her husband,
temporarily here in connection
with construction work at the
Washington Navy Yard, when Pa
tricia was born. Upon arrival in
Boston the small traveler will meet
her year-old sister, left there with
relatives. Mrs. Turnbull decided
a four-hour trip by air would be
less tiresome for the baby than a
longer trip by rail.
