MORTIMER SAYS
 HE PAID FORBES
Insists That BribeS Were Passed
in Government Work
y The Akkociatod Press,

By The Associated Press.
 Chicago, Dec. 1l.--Elias II. Nor timer, the chief government witness began his fourth day of cross-exam- ination in the FQbes-fhompson con splracy trial today with further tes- tlmony touching upon alleged brib- cry payments to Charles k. Forbes then director of the Veterans bu- reau, in August 1929.
 The witness repeated hts charges that he gave Forbes $l,O00 in cash on August II, as 'his share" of q bribe paid for a hospital contract at Tupper Lake, New York.
 The money was given to Mortimer by William McCauley, Washington representative of the Sutherland Construction company, which recelv- ed two separate contracts for the Tupper Lake foundation,
 Mortimer was closely questioned about the nature Of his work in the interest of the Sutherland company, at time when, according to his pre- yjous testimony he was under agree rnent to represent Thompson and Black Construction company, com petitor of Sutherland fin the bidding for Veterans hospitals.
 He denied he had determined Tn July 1922 upon a campaign to ruin Forbes
 Denies Threat
 Mortimer denied he had told Dr. George B. Tullidge, his father-in-la" in August 1922. that he would "get Forbes" it he had to swear himself into jail 10 do 1t,
 He reaffirmed his testimony be- fore the senate Veterans bureau ln- yestieating committee that his "hos- tility toward Forbes prompted him to give his testimony before the committee.
 Mrs. Mortimer begged me not to go before the committee and testi- fy against Forbes" he said.
 Accounting his visit to his father in-law's home in Philadelphia the night before he took the stand be- fore the senate committee, the wit ness told of Mrs Mortiner's effort to bring Forbes and himself together for conference.
 Forbes was in one room and Nor timer in another, and Mrs. Mortimer urged her husband to go into Forbes room and talk with him.
 If l go into that room, only one of ns will come out" Mortimer said he told him wife.
 Asked with whom he divided his commissions on hospital contracts, Mortimer said his agreement with Forbes was for fifty. fifty split
 Randolph Laughlih, counsel for Thompson. read from Mortimer senate testimony statement that his urotlts were to be divided with 4. Nj. McDonald of the Patterson Nc Donald Shipbuilding company Seattle.
 Was there any mention in your senate testimony of division with Forbes?" he wa sasked.
 "The deal with Forbes was not put through at that time" Mortimer an" Swared.
 The defense endeavored to intro duce in evidence a letter from Nor inner 10 his fathcr-in-laN, written in August, 1922, in which Mortimer said charges of improper conduct on the part of Forbes and Mrs. Nortl- mcr were without foundation in fact
 The court permitted questions based on the letter but refused to allow it's introduction during cross examination. The defense served notice it would be offered again as evidence when the government rests.

TRY THE OPERATORS
WAY OF SAYING THEM

Telephone operators are taught
voice technique, but many telephone
subscribers keep on calling numbers
without giving much thought to the
manner in which their words are pro-
nounced. Perhaps some mistakes
might be avoided by taking a leaf
from the operators W book of in
structions.
The next time central repeats the
number you call, you will notice that
she makes a slight pause between the
hundreds and tens, as, for example,
7ryant 1926 which she renders
Bryant AZ (pause) 90. Then again
repeating digits, central uses an
interesting system of pronunciation
which might be copied with salts
factory results. Here is the way she
usually does it:
O-to be spoken as "OH"-with
a long 0.
las "WUN'-with a strong N.
PAS "TOO"-with a strong 7
and a long 90.
Gas "TH-R-R-E-E"-with slight
ly rolling R and long E.
4-as "FOER"-with long o.
5-as "FIVE"-with long I and
strong V.
Gas "SIX"-with strong x.
7-as "SEV-EN"-with two syl-
tables.
8-as "ATE"-with long A and
strong T.
Gas "NIEN"-one syllable, with
strong N on the end.
