In 1961 \textit{J. C. D. S. Yaqub} [Arch. Math. 12, 146-150 (1961; Zbl 0100.351)] observed that the (generalized) Moulton-planes [\textit{F. R. Moulton}, Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 3, 192-195 (1902), JFM 33.0497.04, \textit{G. Pickert}, Projektive Ebenen (1955; Zbl 0066.387)] furnish examples of Lenz Class III. The question, whether all planes of class III are Moulton planes remains open. Only under additional assumptions on the collineation group [\textit{J. André}, Arch. Math. 13, 290-301 (1964; Zbl 0116.127), Math. Z. 84, 316-328 (1964; Zbl 0119.162), \textit{J. C. D. S. Yaqub}, Math. Z. 99, 385-391 (1967; Zbl 0147.198)], on the topology [\textit{H. Salzmann}, Math. Ann. 150, 226-241 (1963; Zbl 0135.392)] or on the ordering [\textit{S. Priess-Crampe}, Math. Z. 99, 305-348 (1967; Zbl 0149.386)] of a plane P of class III, P could be shown to be a Moulton- plane. In this note the question above is answered in the negative. Applying Moulton's construction several times with respect to different, suitably chosen ordering projective planes of Lenz-Class III are obtained which are not Moulton-planes.
