JUDGE SESSIONS
DEMANDS PROBE
Variance inTeStimony Of Wit
ness at NeWberry Trial
Causes Action.
BY Associated Press:


GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Feb. Il.
The question as to whether work
for the committee which managed
the 1918 senatorial campaign OF
Truman II. Newberry was a paying
proposition was again emphasized by
the prosecution today at the cleo
tions conspiracy trial in United
| States district court. Out of severa
bits of testimony bearing on this
subject there stood out the follow
! ing statement, attributed by a grand
| juror to one Of the defendants,
Charles V. Deland, a state senator
from Jackson:
II got in all S1,o95 and I consid-
cred at least half OF that pure vel
vet"
Severe Examination.
The expression was presented 20
the jury through George L. Jordan,
who made his second appearance at
/ the trial He was the second grand
jury witness at the single Saturday
| session, being preceded by the third
appearance OF Claire r. Higbee,
clerk OF the grand jury.
AS on previous occasions when
/ these men have identified, Martin
w. Littleton and George r. Nichols
OF the defense counsel, put them
! through a severe cross examination.
They held stoutly. however, TO the
main portions of their testimoney.
W. II. Richter, worker in a local
/ furniture factory testified 50 much
in variance with the version OF his
/ grand jury information presented b.
| Frank c. Daley assistant attorney
| general that Judge Clarence w
! Sessions ordered an investigation.
Mr.. Littleton objected TO Judge
! Sessions action, saying he did 81
because OF the effect the incident
might have on the jury.
Richtcr's Testimony.
] Richter had been testifying con-
! corning activities Of George Welsh
a Grand Rapids member OF the leg
islature, and Mr.. Littleton said he
was forced 10 make the objection
pointed. so as 10 protect the inter
ests OF Welsh, who is one Of the de-
/ PENDANTS.
Richters attitude drew from Mr.
! Daley the most severe grilling that
the prosecution has yet accorded g
witness. The assistant attorney
! general managed 10 bring out that
! Richter had talked with Welsh about
a state job for himself while the
senatorial campaign was on.
Daley Angered.
You not only got your job bu'
you also got a place for your son
as a page in the legislature did yO'
not?" ne asked. And when Richter
tried 70 explain that Welsh had not
promised il 10 him, the prosecutor
tossed his spectacles on the table
and said:
See here. you testified 70 the fac;
before the grand Jury and repeated
I IL in a signed statement"
Now often have YOU seen George
/ Welsh in the last ten days ." was
the next query and after many
/ questions Mr.. Daley learned that

ELKS APPOINT
COMMITTEE FOR
POSTAL DRIVE
Chairman YeagIey Will First
Consult With Chamber
of Commerce.
JACOBSON EXPLAINS ATTITUDE

Appointment OF a small commit
tee Of prominent citizens to present
South Bends needs for better post
office facilities to the postal depart
ment at Washington and TO Con-
gresham A J. Hickey and Sens.
James Z. Watson and Harry s New
was offered as the first actual step
10 be taken in an effort to obtain
better mail facilities here, at a
meeting Of citizens at the Elks'
temple Saturday afternoon.
The meeting was called TO dis
cuss ways and means to secure a
arge post office building here. Re
ports of present congested condi-
lions at the South Bend post office
we're submitted by Mrs. J. n. Hunter
and II. o. Greiger.
The suggestion that a committee
Of representative citizens be ap-
pointed to go TO Washington TO lay
the matter before the federal postal
authorities was made by Anthony
Wolf
Defends Elks.
Mr.. Wolf said that a series of
meetings of citizens in regard 10 the
cost office situation would accom-
llish nothing. He then offered the
Committee suggestion, after he had
defended the position of the Elks'
odge here in starting the movement
for better post office facilities. He
said that some citizens had wonder
q why the movement had not been
tarted by the Chamber Of Com
merce. Mr.. Wolf said that all citi-
zens Of South Bend should be behind
the movement.
The question OF financing a COM
nittee from here to Washington
came up. Several OF those present
'aw no objection TO allowing the
Chamber of Commerce to carry on
the movement if II were able 20 n
lance the committee.
IF the Chamber of Commerce is
nable to pay the expenses of a
committee to Washington. 1 see no
reason why the Elks should not
father the movement" declared one
speaker.
Gives Chambers Position.
Alexander Jacobsen, secretary of
the commercial bureau Of the
chamber. and representing It at the
post office meeting, explained the
chambers position. He said:
The Chamber OF Commerce al
all times is ready TO do everything
n it's power and will leave no stone
unturned for the good OF South
Bend. But since Mr.. Green took
charge of the chamber three months
ago. at a time when there were
only three employees. we have add
cd u persons 20 the payroll, and we
are only able 10 spend money for
dire necessities. For that reason ]
do not believe that the Chamber OF
Commerce could pay the expenses
Of a committee TO Washington.
However" continued Mr.. Jacob
sen. IF any Of you viii examine our
program OF work. you viii find that
just such a thing as you are discuss
ing here this afternoon is there We
have not had time to get TO II yet as
there are many things that came
| up ahead Of It."
The meeting authorized John G.
Yeagley. chairman OF the Elks' post
office committee, 20 appoint a com
lmittee 10 confer with the Chamber
| OF Commerce.

Jnder-S Secretary Polk Or
Ambassador May Be SeIec-
ed for Vacancy.
CONGRESSMAN DISCUSS ROW
Officials Believe Climax Re-
suited From Conditions
in Peace Treaty.

By Associated Press
WASHINGTON. Feb. 14.-Under-
secretary Polk. John W. Davis, am
bassador TO Great Britain. and
Hugh c. Wallace. ambassador 10
France, are foremost among those
being discussed 10 head the state
department as SUCCESSORS to former
Sec'y lansing, who announced his
resignation after q dramatic clash
with Pres't Wilson.
Although Il Is known that Mr..
Polk had determined 20 return TO
!. private life and practice law, some
friends OF the administration were
hopeful that he might be induced
10 serve out the unexpired term OF
his former chief.
Discuss Sensation.
The Lansing sensation furnished
official Washington with a sensation
unparalleled since William J. Bryan
departed from once. The state
ment OF Sec'y Lane, who is leaving
the cabinet March /. that he felt an
equal responsibility with Mr.. Ian
sing for holding the cabinet meet
ings 10 which Pres't Wilson objected
seemed TO add possibilities OF fur
ther cabinet resignation for a time,
but this was disposed OF by a state
ment at tho white house that there
were TO be no further retirements
as a result of the incident
Congress discussed the sensation
with avidity, but in the cloak rooms
however. and the subject did not
come up in debate on the floor OF
either house OF senate. Such com
ment as was made was more or less
divided. opponents OF the treaty
7 praising Mr.. Lansing's course and
others recalling that one OF the
presidents prerogatives Is to select
the members Of his own official fam
fiy.
Eject OF Row
The row served 70 bring to public
light much that has been going or
under the surface since Pres't VIII
son fell IN. and the principal effect
was 10 emphasize that Pres't Wilson
and his former secretary OF state
were at loggerheads on many i'm
portant subjects. even before the
United States went into the war IN
1917 and that these disagreements
which were on fundamental Ques-
tions OF Iolicy. continued through
out the peace negotiations at Paris
and even into the handling OF TN
Mexican situation since the presi-
dent has been sick.
The best informed OF those close
10 the administration were sure thai
the climax was the result Of an &C
cumulation Of conditions which con
tinueA over the question OF whether
the peace treaty and the League o,
Nations covenant shO1ld be separat

A.I~ lo- Unless ,b, momb,,sh.p'oE ,uc House is in- creased from l#, ,o at ,sas, 800 10 me-, the increased population shown ay the 1920 census, Io .ta;., will lose one OF more representatives, according to Rep.,s,atatv, SicgcI. of New York, caa.rmaa O. tn, Census commit t,c which will 1amr the new Appor- tionment Bill. Those states are:
 Gnd,ur. Iowa. and Missouri, which will lose two congrcssmcn each; and Illinois, Kentucky Maine, Maryland, Ncbuska, Vernon, and Virginia, which will lose on, congressman each,
 Mr. SiogcI explains that if the House membership is retained at its present figure. it will be necessary to increase ;ho population bass in each congressional district beyond the 2ll,- 900 or major portion thereof now fjX- cd If this is done, he s&ys, theso state, named will lose one or more of the present districts because their po- pulations have not increased in pro- portion to those Of other states.
