GOVERNOR WINS IN ] CONTROVERSY WITH
 ATTORNEY GENERAL
Supreme Court Holds That the Chief Executive Has Power to Approve or
 Disappr0ve Accounts

Montgomery, February 2.-The Ala. bama supreme court today held that expense accounts of state departments first must be approved by the gover- nor and that approval of expenses in the office of the attorney general Is not merely ministerial duty of the chief executive. The decision came in mandamus proceedings instituted by Attorney General Martin to force Cow ernor Henderson to approve expenses incurred in the liquor raids at Girard last May and June; to pay the per- sonal expenses of the attorney gen. eral in that connection. and to pay the salary of Assistant Attorney Gen. eral Perry Turner. Tho court holds mourning of expenses must be with and by the consent of the governor and his approval of these accounts is not merely ministerial. The court holds, however that the salary of Tur- ner must be approved by the governor in so far as the agreement to engage him was approved by tho chief exec- utive.

proving certain propositions that enun- ciate the chief accusations against the Catholic church. Whether the charges are proved or not is to be decided by just and impartial tribunal of three men of education. one to be selected by tNe person attempting thereof, one by the Sunday Visitor, and the third to be se- lected by these two.
 The Sunday Visitor made this propo- sition sometime ago. in order that the mouthpieces of the present anti Catholic movement which is, of course, nothing else than know nottingham or A. P. Aism redivivus, may put up or shut up" This, however, they do not seem inclined to do. They have flooded the country with anti-Catholic books and pamphlets and papers, with fake oaths and blood thirsty documents and hair raising mani festoes. This would be amusing, were it not that this precious literature is taken seriously. especially in places where Catholics are scattered and few, and more especially also in the states that in the percentage of literacy are near the wrong end of the column. No one as yet has taken up the Sunday Visitor gage. I point to the gage, bow and re- tire.
 In conclusion. MT. Editor, you say that the contest of wits is as interesting as the European war. "Grim visag'd war has, I think, lost interest long ago for most people. Many are thoroughly weary of what Calderon calls the ultima razon de reyes. Personally. since the glores of Easter week with it's seven sacrament tai days of Irish freedom, have confined myself to reading the headlines with an occasional glance at war map, for whisper it not in Cath, the adven- lures and naisadventures of one Scoop are far more entertaining. Sincerely.

ANOTHER LETTER BY
 FATHER COYLE ADDED TO THE CONTROVERSY
Sums Up Substance of Conditions Surrounding Offer Made by
 Catholic Organ

Both the columns of The Age Herald and it's back yard are yet open to brief bouts.
 and it looks like put up or shut up" game.
 In the meantime, Scoop" appears every day.
 Father Coyle says today in answer to Dr. Dozier yesterday: To the Editor of The Age Herald:
 A certain pope. pray be not alarmed, am not going to hurl any anathema na- rantha at anyone, certain Alexander Pope, when England yet was merry, al- though the ''merrie monarch had long been forgathered with his Stuart ances- tors. wrote:
 "A wits feather and chiefs rod, An honest mans the noblest work of
 God.
 With that definition of wit before me, I wonder should thank you for the du- bious compliment of dubbing me wit as you do in your paper today. I wonder.
 Well, be that as it may, another Eng fish poet, an earlier and greater by far than the Bard of Twickenham said also: 'Brevity is the soul of wit, And tediousness it's outer flourishes."
 I will, therefore, though denying the gentle impeachment of wit, try to woo it's soul in this. which I promise will be my last gyration in The Age-Herald back yard.
 In brief, then, to sum up once and for all the Catholic side of this controversy, the Sunday Visitor has on deposit at the First National bank of Huntington, Ind, the sum of one thousand dollars (sl000) which sum will be paid to the person

SENATE WANTS INVESTIGATION OF
 COTTON EXCHANGE
Resolution Offered by Smith of South Carolina Requests Attorney Gen.
 eral to Take Action

Washington, February 2.-The Sem ate today passed the resolution of Sem ator Smith of South Carolina direct ing the Attorney General to investi- gate buying and selling operations of the New York cotton exchange, to as certain if the methods employed were in restraint of trade. There was no debate.
 The resolution recites that com plaints from farmers, merchants and business men say cotton quotations on the exchange are made lower than prices in local spot markets and that this practice demoralizes the trade.
 Later Senator Smith announced that he would confer with the Attorney General regarding operations on the cotton exchange and recent fluctua- ton of prices. He said he proposedSt to give every opportunity for Q thorough investigation, but if no remedy came through this channel he would insist upon the appointment of special Sen ate committee to go to New York and institute drastic inquiry.
 New York. February 2.--Henry H. Royce. president of the New York cot ton exchange, said today the exchange would welcome any investigation as to it being in restraint of trade.
 Prices on the exchange are entire ly the result of orders received by it's members to buy and sell,' he said "The management of the exchange has absolutely nothing to do with prices It in no way influences prices. but on the other hand it is the public and no other agency that establishes the value of cotton.
 The bushes of the exchange by it's members is conducted under the strict provisions of the United States cotton futures act, which was enacted to cor rect what was thought by some people to be conditions detrimental to the cotton interests

Pressure of International Affairs Causes Change in
 Base of Investigation
COMMITTEE MEMBERS
 NEEDED AT CAPITAL
Testimony Aduced in New York Dis closed Startling Facts Showing Brokers Secured Advance
 News of Peace Note

New York, February 2.-Pressure of International affairs today caused the congressional committee Investigating the so-called Teak" on President Will sons recent peace note to transfer the inquiry to Washington. Examination of witnesses will be resumed there to- morrow morning Further hearings on practically pertinent local angles of the case probably will be resumed here as soon as the committeeman think their congressional duties ih Washington will permit.
 The committee returned to Washing ton determined further to sound at once the source of transmission of F. A. Connolly's advance resume of the Presidents note from Connolly's Wash ington brokerage office to E. r. Hut ton & Co.,, New York brokers. If possi- ble, George A. Ellis. Jr., member of the Hutton firm, who put Connollys information into a telegraphic warning to all of Hutton's correspondents in the United States 10 hours before the note was released, will be the first witness called. Ellis was due to arrive in Wash ington tonight from Savannah.
 CONTRADICTORY TESTIMONY
 Connollys testimony that he sent his information in a message by pri~ yate wire from his office to the Hut ton office has been disputed by every telegrapher in Hutton's employ who, according to sherman L. Whipple, counsel to the committee, might have received the message. Joseph w. Beck CT the Connolly private wire opera tor in Hutton's office. first disputed Connollys story on the stand yester- day and today other telegraphers from the Hutton officess examined by Whip pie swore they had not received it.
 The missing link in the telegraph CTS. testimony is that of the two op- orators in Connolly's office. They will be early witnesses.
 Committeeman injected many aues- tions into the record today about the possibility of telephonic communication between the Hutton and Connolly houses when 1t developed that the prl- vate wire might be used either for telegraphing or telephoning. Records of all long distance calls between the two offices during the peace note period" if any exist will be sub poenaed.
