old MATTER
IN MCPHERSON
CASE REVIVED
Says Aimee Told Mo-
ther of Plan to Have
Conspiracy Charge
Dismissed

Los ANGELES, Jan. 31.--tP1-Tht
sequel TO Aimee Semple McPherson's
famous story about being kidnapped
she conspiracy Ease which was
brought against her and dropped, was
dragged out Of the past today By me
legislative committee investigating
the evangelist's payment Of $4,000 to
Judge Carlos S. Hardy Of the Los An
genes criminal court.
Until yesterday the committe seek
ing to determine whether Judge
hardy shall. face impeachment charges
for accepting the money had touched
only a few angles incidental TO the
kidnapping story and the conspiracy
case. ,
Yesterday, however, testimony Of a
newspaperman brought forward oc-
cuFrences Of two years or more ago
when Mrs. McPherson's case was
dropped.
In the midst Of an argument as to
thet admissability of testimony given
by Walter Marek, y reporter, the
chairman Of the committee, Walter j.
Little, announced:
I'VE believe that any facts which
we may be able TO uncover on the
dismissal Of charges in the McPher-
son case will prove valuable to the
citizens of Los Angeles county and
TO the state"
Daring the heated argument re-
garding Marek's testimony Cromwell
Ormsby, one OF Mrs. McPherson's at
torneys, was elected from the com
mittee room after his violent objee-
ton 10 testimony which dealt with a
conversation Marek had a few months
ago with Mrs. Minnie Kennedy, moth
err of the evangelist, with whom she
now is at odds.
Mrs. Kennedy said" Marek testi-
fled, "that Mrs. Mcpherson had told
herd Of = Plan TO have the conspiracy
Ease dismissed.
Mrs. Kennedy said her daughter
gave the names of her advisers as
Ralph Jordan (Mrs. Mcpherson s
former business manager), Les Tav-
ener and Morris Lavine newspaper
men), and called them her three de-
liverers'."
Marek said the only mention of
Judge Hardy's services TO the
Temple which Mrs. Kennedy made 20
him was TO describe him as their
.first contact and friend in Los An
geles."

TWOUTILITIES
CONTROL ACTS
Up IN SENATE
One Gives State All
Power; Other Per-
mits Cities First
Rule Over Plants

AUSTIN. Jan. 3i.--tP)-Members
of the senate committee on state af-
fairs today had two bills on public
utilities regulation before it-one
giving a state commission complete
regulatory power, and the other al
lowing cities original authority and
granting the state body only appel
late jurisdiction.
The second measure, sponsored by
the City Attorneys association, was
formally presented to the committee
at a hearing last night as q sGbsti-
tute bill by Senator Holbrook, who
withdrew his original substitute. The
Holbrook measure would allow the
state commission original jurisdic-
tion only over rates affecting cities
Of less than 1000 population. Ii
would not disturb existing branches
and would leave unmentioned the
indeterminate franchise and certifi-
cate of convenience and necessity
provisions which representatives Of
public utilities demanded virtually
unanimously.
The original bill, offered by Sen
ators Westbrook and Writ, would
give the railroad commission author
ity over all cities, but Wirtz offered
an amendment which would elimi-
nate municipally-owned and operat-
ed public utilities.
Representatives of public utility
companies appeared before the COM
mittee TO urge an all-powerful state
commission and attack the feasibil-
ity of duel control.
A. NJ. Fclts, representing the town
Of Elgin also spoke in behalf of the
original bill, asserting if the larger
cities were allowed to drive their
own bargains, the utilities compa-
MES naturally would favor them and
the small cities would be hurt in
consequence.
Among the utilities representa-
tives who spoke were j. r. Kelso,
president of the Texas utilities Co.;
j. b Earle of Waco. president of
the Long Distance Telephone Co. of
Waco and the North Texas Telephone
company Of Sherman and II. Y. Stitts,
Tyler. president Of the Independent
Telephone Association of Texas.
Joe Ryan. San Antonio city attor-
ney. and John McGlasson, Waco city
attorney. ext0lled the merits Of the
Holbrook substitute measure.
