MILLER ON STAND
TELLS OF INTERVIEW
Reporter is Insistent in Story of His
Talk With President
Coolidge.

Washington, D. C. = James Martin
Miller who in telegram quoted
President Coolidge as saying he was
"trying to deliver" Muscle Shoals to
Henry Ford, told the senate agricul-
tural committee today that he had
correctly and truthfully" stated the
facts in the message which he sent to
Ford's secretary within 25 minutes
after the interview with the president.
The president, Miller said, did not
deny the interview had taken place.
Mr.. Coolidge he insisted, brought up
the subject of Muscle Shoals.
"The branding of the telegram as a
lie is gross political dissemination"
he said.
Miller told the committee the gov
eminent had no secret service or
propaganda organization greater than
that of Ford's.
Before Miller took the stand, Chair
man Norris inserted in the record the
letter sent to the committee by Henry
Ford, in which the manufacturer said
he would not be represented further
before the committee, giving as one
of the reasons, "the recent efforts of
! Chairman Norris to reflect upon the
integrity of the president of the Unit
ed States in connection with our Of
] fer for Muscle ShoalsP
At the same time the chairman is
sued statement declaring Ford's let
ter "was an attempt to shift the at
tention OF the public from the real
question at ISSUE" and adding that
he would continue his course in try
ing to save for the people the valu-
able inheritance of our national re-
sources"

Washington, D. C.-Some Republican
House leaders professed late today
to see a possibility that the immigra-
tion bill conferees might reverse their
previous decision and recommend post
ponement of Japanese exclusion until
some date several months hence.
"As a result of the Intervention of
President Coolidge, it was said, Re-
publican managers in Congress were
giving serious consideration to a pro-
posal that the date be fixed as March
/ l, 1925. The presidents original pro-
posal was delay until March 1, 1926.
Meantime conferees on the bill went
back into session after Senator Reed
of Pennsylvania, ard Representative
Johnston of Washington, in charge of
the measure in the Senate and House,
respectively had been summoned to

that there was little likelihood of any

Jackson for Indiana Governor.

tBy united GreSSI
Indianapolis. President Coolidge
made a runaway race from Senator Hi
ram johnson in the Indiana primaries
yesterday, it was indicated today in re-
turns from nearly half of the precincts.
Coolidge is leading by about seven to
one. The vote in 1850 out Of 3,409
precincts was:
Coolidge 149,505.
johnson 25,906.
The Ku KTux Khan chalked up VIC
tory through the nomination of Ed
Jackson, secretary of state, as the Re-
publican candidate for governor. Mr..
jackson is holding good majority
over the other five Republican candi-
dates. Mayor Shank of Indianapolis,
anti-klan candidate, was running a
poor second.
In the Democratic gubernatorial
race, more than one-third of the pre-
cincts gave DR.. Carleton McCulloch a
substantial lead, but it appeared
doubtful whether he would obtain q
majority for the nomination. DR.. Nc
Culloch took neutral stand on the
khan issue, but the effect Of the strug-
gle over the khan in the Democratic
party was shown when Mayor Durgan,
of Lafayette, forged up to second
place as an anti-klan candi date.
Durgans strength was entirely UNI
expected and attributed to his stand
against the khan.

Await Scattered Precincts.
The precincts remaining to be heard
from are scattered, but do not cast a
heavy vote. They may incline little
toward Johnson. Most of them are in
mountain counties.
Johnson's defeat was a distinct sur
prise. He carried northern California,
but not by the terrific margins under
which he has swamped opponents in
years gone by. In southern California
Coolidge piled up large margins in ev-
cry county. Johnson carried San Fran
cisco by less than 10000 and Coolidge
carried Los Angeles by nearly $4,000.
Johnson lost Oakland, but beat Cool
idge in Sacramento 2 to 1. Coolidge
carried nearly all southern California
counties by big majorities. Johnson
won Fresno county.
McAdoo carried every county in the
state, the returns indicate. In no sec
ton did the anti-McAdoo or "unpledg-
ed' ticket show any major strength.
