FAITH is NEEDED,
SAYS EVANGELIST

Last night at the Assembly of God
church, Evangelist Robertson spoke
on the 18th chapter OF John, select
ing the seventh verse, which reads
IF We abide in Me and My works
abide in you, ask what we Will, and
it shall be done unto you" The
speaker said:
Jesus makes it very plain that
'if you abide in Me- that you will
get what you ask, and ii My works
abide in you" Jesus always puts
the shall on His side anG on our
side obedience.
The eighth verse of the 18th
chapter reads: Herein is my Father
glorified that We bear much fruit,
SO shall We be my disciples II we
abide in the Father and the Father
in us we Will bear his fruits. Also
ii we abide in the Father, we may
ask what we will. Whatever it is
we ask for and we need it bad
enough to ask God for IL RE will
give it to us, II we abide IN Him.
Evangelist Robertson said last nig*it
that it was necessary tor him ito
preach Pentecost because 1t was
Bible" "Pentecost means a spiritual
life. Pentecost means to be on fire
for God. Pentecost means to have
power from God,' he added.
The services at this church will
continue all this week. There is
special music.

COMMITTEE IN
SENATE URGES
PROBE OF COAL

b K X L. Is
WASHINGTON, Feb. is tR-An in
vestigation of conditions in the bitum-
inous coal fields Of Pennsylvania,
Ohio and West Virginia, where q strike
is on, was recommended today by the
senate interstate committee.
The inquiry would be conducted by
that committee. In the event it was
deemed advisable to go into the coal
regions for first hand information, a
subcommittee would be authorized to
make such study.
The resolution OF Senator Johnson,
republican, California, calling for the
investigation, was approved unani-
nlously by the committee. It's author
announced he would ask for an early
vote, In the senate, predicting approv-
al and q start Of the inquiry by next
week,
Under terms Of the resolution the
Investigation would go into every
phase of the strike, including the is
Saance of injunctions against the min
ets by federal courts. This subject
again came under fire of American
Federation of Labor leaders today who
denounced the granting Of these in
jMktCN4QA4C N~4OACx AAACa AAOCl0C
committee as a menace to the domestic
tranquility of the nation
William Green, president Of the fed
Grafton, who last week appeared before
a senate committee on the same SUBJ
ject, cited the injunctions granted in
the Pennsylvania coal dispute as an
''encroachmeTt upon the liberties Of
the labOring man which will lead toI
involuntary servitlide." He asked the
committee to approve bills by Repre-
sentatives Laguardia, New York, and
Schaafer, Wisconsin, republicans,
which like that of Senator Shtpstead,
farmer-lahor, Minnesota, would se-
strict the courts in issuing il1junctions
ia labor disputes,
IN addition to the johnson inyesti-1
cation. the senate Judiciary committee
has under consideration a separate one
into the injunction involved IN the

Warren T. McCray, fcrmer governor
of Indiana, who recently was parolee
from federal prison, today was called
upon by the state to help convict
the present governor. Ed Jackson. on
al charge OF bribery McCray testified
Jackson offered him $4,000 tc bring
about the APP pointment of a prosecut

which Indianapolis is the county

McCray, the last witness OF the.
day, appeared feeble Tor his 63 years

that Fred B. Robinson, his former
political campaign manager, had pre-.

to start then. He referred to Mr..
Coffin, George v. Coffin, Marion
county republican chalrmanl as one
of the greatest political geniuses OF
the middlewest and that he could get
things done that others couldn't ana
he felt was making a great mis-
take
Jackson left the office, McCray
testified, but returned an hour and
O half or two hours later at which
time the offer Of $4,000 was made.
"ae said, Now, governor, know
your condition and we might just
as well get down to brass tacks. We
are very anxious to get this appoint
ment. You go into the room OF your

turn there will be $4,000 in the
drawer OF your desk. No one, will
know about it. You can call Remy
ever, and tell him you changed your
mind"
(William H. Ren1y was appointed
prosecutor by McCray. He later was
elected to the office and is now
handling the states case in the Jack
son triaD.
"I said, Ed, I am amazed that
you should make that kind of an
offer to me. You evidently don't
know me. It begins to look like
I've lost my fortune that I've striven
for 35 years. My office is threatened,
it looks as it they are threatening
my liberty, but I'm not going to-
lose my selfrespect' That closed the
interview"
McCray was convicted in federal
court for using the mails to defraud.
He was released late last summer
after serving little more than three

the same refusal and SELECTION Of
jury began.
Judge Craig took over the WORK
OF questioning talesmen by groups
to speed up the trial, after which
defense counsel began their inter
rogations. Jerome Walsh and Richard
Cantillon, attorneys for Hickman, put
but few queries, the burden Of the
questioning being taken by A. Gray
Gilmer, representing Hunt.
Gilmer centered his queries around
the proposition OF whether the pros
pective jurors would give his client
a fair trial unprecedented by his asso-
citation with Hickman.
Cantillcn, early In the day, sought
to upset the entire jury panel when
he objected to use Of its members
because they had been ON cali since
Jan. 16. He contended that this
violated the legal provision giving i
Juror only 20 days service in two
years.

Most of the jurors excused stated
that they had formed opinions from
reading newspaper accounts Of the

by the fact that Hickman already
had been sentenced to death for the
Marian Parker killing.
The two prisoners sat side by side
behind their attorneys. but there

Neither one spoke to the other.

The Hickman defense, his attorneys
have announced, will rest mainly on
the prop that already has failed it
once in the Marian Parker case, a
plea OF insanity, The failure of that
excuse brought Hickman within the
shadow OF the gallowS, when Judge
j. j. Trabueco sentenced him to hang
April 81 next. Despite this, and
relying on aA appeal to upset the
new California insanity plea law,
Hickman's attorneys plan TO make
another effort to establish the claim
that the killer bandits hand was
guided by an unbalanced mind.
They also assert that IL was a

Coach Jack McAuliffe deserves a lot
of credit for the work he did with the
Catholic University squad this Fall. He
started with only fair material and
very little of that. He had good back

his line material was only mediocre
Yet McAuliffe took the squad, did no
grumbling about having no material,
and started to work. He developed a
kind of instructive defense for his for

had to depend on, took advantage
of opposing teams weaknesses and

for 19 points. through fall of snow
that melted almost as soon as 1t
