NEWBERRY PROSECUTION
ENDS TESTIMONY TODAY
Notes of II. Dale Souter Read Con-
cerning Handling Of Cam
paign Funds.

GRAND RAPIDS Mich. March 2 (by
| the Associated Press)-The last day
of prosecution testimony in the New
berry elections conspiracy case began
this morning with recital Of grand
jury testimony from the notes Of H.
Dale Souter. special assistant attorney
general. He began with the testimony
of Mel r. Dec Of North Branch, and
then read his notes on Louis L. Thomp-
son. former probate judge at Allegan:
William Crebassa OF rAnse. ex-sherifr
Of Baraga county. and Samuel O'Dell.
Lansing. a member of the state public
utility commission and former state
treasurer.
ODell was brought into the case
on a report that Charles Floyd told
James w. Helme assurance Of financial
aid If that man would run in the demo-
cratic primary against Henry Ford.
According to Mr.. Souters notes,
Dec told the grand jury that in April.
asked him to be county chairman FOR
the Newberry campaign. King gave
him $100. which he divided with Car
rigan, using his share in circulating
literatureRnd cards. He received no
other money and made no report of
The crebassa testimony. said Mr..
Souter. was that Paul King came to
rAnse with Charles Floyd in May,
1918. King asked him to use his in
fuence for Newberry. John Brennan
suggested: Hand US $1,000 and we
will paint the town with Newberry
literature" King was said to have
replied that 1T would take a million
dollars to satisfy everybody"
O'Dell. according to Mr.. Souter, said
he talked to Helme and tried to per-
suade him to run. He was asked
about promising financial help to
Helme and said he had a recollection
that he told Helme that he might ex
pect some financial aid in his cam
paign.
O'DeI explained to the grand Jury
that his object in the Helme matter
was to get some opposition started
to Ford in the democratic primary
so that the opposition partys vote
could not be used in the republican
primary to nominate Ford on both
tickets.
