SENATOR BYFRAUD
"COnspired" With New York
Concerns, Says Attorney.
FORTUNE FOR PUBLICITY
Jury Told Senator Did "Patriotie
Work" in Gotham as Lieutenant
Commander in Navy.

Jury Told Senator Did "Patriotic
Work" in Gotham as Lieutenant
Commander in Navy.
Grand Rapids, Mich, Feb. 3.-The
fraudulent election conspiracy which
the government charges against Sena-
tor Newberry and his cO-defendants
had its inception in New York in 1917.
This is alleged in the opening state
ment by Frank G. Daley, assistant
attorney general, to the jury in Unit
ed States district court. He named
Senator Newberry and Frederick Co
dy, described as "a legislative agent
for large corporations, particularly
the American Telephone and Tele-
graph company and the American
Book company" as the man who made
the preliminary arrangements" He
added:
"They had determined to purchase
the United States senatorship in Mich
igan for Mr.. Newberry."
Mr.. Daley told the jury the sena-
tor was then on patriotic work" in
New York as q lieutenant commander
in the navy. The American Book
company, he added, twas largely con-
trolled by the Barnes family, to which
Mr.. Newberry was related by mar
riage."
Mr.. Daley said Cody was commits
stoned to hire manager for the cam
paign and J. G. Hayden, Washington
correspondent Of the Detroit News,
was offered $500 a month. He refused
the position because she did not want
that kind of job
Mr.. Daley then shifted the scene
to Detroit, where, he said, in Febru-
airy there was a conference Of Michi-
gan politicians known as Cody men."
This conference, he said, selected Paul
II. King, one of the defendants, as
manager of the campaign. During the
campaign, said Mr.. Daley, "Mr. King
visited virtually every county in Mich
igan. He employed many general
agents and paid out a vast sum Of
money"
The prosecutor then sketched the
publicity campaign Of the Newberry
organization, charging It sought ad-
vertising space in "every newspaper
and magazine in the state"
He then turned to motion pictures,
saying Thomas r. Phillips, Detroit,
one Of the defendants, was sent to
New York to negotiate for them.
phillips purchased about 1000 feet Of
an old film, showing review Of the
United States navy" said Mr.. Daley,
land procured 125 feet of new film,
showing Mr.. Newberry in various atti-
tudes on battleship located on dry
land in a New York park.
According to the prosecutor, the
campaign statement showed FIVE con-
tributors alone gave $4,000. He
named John s. Newberry, defendant
and brother Of the senator; Mrs. Hen
~ B. Joy, sister, her husband, and
Victor Barnes and Lyman B. Smith,
Of the American Book company.
Mr.. Daley said the money went for
motor cars and halls, workers at the
polls, votes, banquets, liquor, cigars
and flowers. He charged some custo-
dams Of money used it to pay personal
debts. There was also, he said, sys-
tenn of gratultIes. A $50 bill was plac-
ed in a book so it could be found by
one citizen. A banker received $500
for his influence, the prosecutor charg-
ed.

Washington, Feb. 3-Declaring
that the wheat price guarantee act
was being administered so as TO keep
down wheat prices, Senator Gronna,
Republican, North Dakota, gave no
tice in the senate that he intended to

GREY DEFENDS U. S. STAND
Reservations Do Not Imply Bad Faith
or Repudiate League Plea.


London, Feb. 3.-Yiscount Grey, in
an open letter on the peace treaty,
makes the following points:
The United States senate is an in
dependent element in treaty-making
and its refusal 10 ratify the treaty
cannot expose it or the United States
to a charge Of bad faith or repudia-
ton, nor is 1t fair to say the treaty
is held up solely from motives Of party
politics.
The league of nations is not only a
plunge into the unknown-but a
plunge into something which Ameri-
can tradition has hitherto disapprov-
ed.
Without the help Of the United
States .he league win have neither
the physical nor moral force it should
have, for it will be European, tainted
with the inter-racial jealousies of Eu-
rope.
With America in the league, war
may be prevented and ornaments dis
couraged; without it, there will be
the catastrophe Of war again.
1t must not be thought because the
citizens Of the United States wish to
limit their obligations they propose to
play a small part in the league.
If they enter willingly, with limited
obligations, American opinion in The
league may be more fruitful than If
they enter reluctantly.
1t Is in this hope and expectation
the allies should consider American
reservations.
The reservations Of America does
not in any way challenge the right Of
the self-govsrning dominions of the
British empire to exercise their votes,
nor does it say the United States will
necessarily reject q decision in which
those votes have been cast.
