subject Of comment ever since the

accounts to the Helm committee.
The decision took nearly one hour

defendants attorney. N. C. Sears. that
the senate had no right to force entry
to private accounts, or the person
named as directly as the records show
Tilden was. especially when that per-

that the case probably would be re-

Incidentally Mrs. Wilson notified the

The mayor. however, holds the STRAIT
