iirigible Graf Zeppelin was slightly
damaged tday while landing in q
windstorm after her final test pre-.

the impact broke the ladder leading

Bishop james Cannon, jr.,
militant leader of the Metho:
dist Church, South, and a
power in the Anti-Saloon
League, today charged forth
from under the avalanche Of
accusations and criticism that
has fallen about him recently
to administer verbal spank
ing to DR.. Rembert G. Smith, a
Methodist minister Of Georgia.
Smith recently accused the
Bishop Of lending pOlitical
parties moneys belonging to
the church.

explaining that he had merely " Dor

Loan Repaid
The bishop pointed out that he
could have borrowed this money
from the Superintendent Of the
Southern Assembly. or the proprietor
Of the Terrace Hotel. "but It was
more convenient to borrow 1t from
DR.. Crawford, and the money was
paid bach"
Dr.. smith charged that Bishop
Cannon had admitted that money
from the income of the Board or
and social service OF the
Methodist Episcopal Church, south,
was lent for fuse in the recent
political campaign"
The only basis which DR.. smith
had for making his charge Is the
following extract Of letter written
by the bishop to DR.. Smith, the
bishop declares:
'sNow as to the question Of any
use OF the boards funds for then

Shook was considerably cheered
up by visit from his wife, Mrs.

mother, Mrs. Mary Shook. OF Leba

minutes. Shook was allowed to come
out OF his cell to chat with them.
He did not show any emotion and
he kissed both his mother and his

his old mothers eyes when she
emerged.

came into his life three years ago,
she is standing by him.
