MONROE AND ELLIS
 MAY BE RETAINED
Alderman Nair Suggests Com. promise in Street Name Puzzle

AS an amicable solution of the controversy over the naming of the crosstown street recently opened by completing the stretch between Mon roe and Ellis streets, Alderman David L. Nair suggested today that the two streets retain their names and the common council decide whether to call the new strip Mon- roe or Ellis street. In this way, he said, neither street would lose it's identity and the only question to be decided would be whether the divid- ing line between them should be at Greenwood street, where Monroe street now ends, or at Glen street, where Ellis street ends.
 It is not uncommon. Alderman Nair pointed out. for streets to end al interesting highways and there is no confusion in other cities where this condition obtains, provided proper street signs are installed. There are several such streets in Boston. Mass, and other places, he said. In New Britain, Liberty street runs from West Main to Murray street and Forest street begins at Murray street and runs to Adams street, although the entire stretch is practically one street.
 Alderman Nair will also recom- mend 10 the common council that steps be taken by the board of park commissioners 10 purchase the American Hardware corporation property at Arch street and Shuttle Meadow avenue and develop it as an ice skating pond and small park.

questions at issue, and why I retus- | ed to answer
 Cannon told Borah he did not not consider himself within the jurisdic- ton Of the committee after appear ing as q voluntary witness and being sworn.
 Quotes Borah
 Answering question by Blaine, the churchman said he had Borah's word for 1t that as q voluntary witness I am subject to the jurs- dictlon Of the committee
 The bishop maintained respect ful manner toward the examiners. The questioning veered again 10 the 1aA activities Of the witness, Senator Caraway saying E. C. Jarne- son had testified he gave Cannon S65,300 for the anti-Smith campaign and that the board of temperance Of the Methodist Episcopal church, south. had given s5,00o and that the only report made showed receipt Of SI7000 from Jameson.
 Do you have any explanation to TAahe aSked AdTaWay.
 The questions refers to my polit- ical activity" asserted Cannon. "Ex- cept the question about the s5,000 from the Methodist board"
 Well, lets hear about that" said Caraway.
 MT. Pickett of the Methodist board stated the exact facts" con- tlnued Cannon. The board gave me 55,G00 for circulation Of my speech Prohibition Repeal Jnthinkable That was not political activity, It vas prohibition work"
 Were you responsible for circula- tion of that speech as q political document during the campaign 2" asked Caraway.
 Cannon protested this question bordered again on his own political activity. He denied the document was circulated as a political matter.
 Was the money given you by Jameson 10 be used by the Methodist board ." Caraway asked.
 No"
 Cannon added that the s65,300 and the S5,010 were used for differ. ent purposes.
 He said the money Jameson con triouted was used for political pur- poses.
 Was there any relation between your political activities and your ac- tivlties as chairman of the temper ance board?'
 No"
 Cannon testified his activities had been as m individual and not as an official Of the Methodist church.
 Cannon noted he had asked for a ruling by the committee on whether he should answer questions about his political activity.
 To my surprise, the questions continued" he said without the for a ruling"
 Senator Walsh asked about the S5,o00 from the Methodist board.
 The bishop said he did not recall when he got the money.
 Walsh read q report from Dr. Clarence True Wilson Of the Meth odlst board telling of the contribu- ton to Bishop Cannon for his heroic work" and asked;
 What was this heroic work?"
 Cannon said it began in 1927 when he called attention, to the menace" against prohibition. He referred to his subsequent address Prohibition Repeal Unthinka ble," and the tremendous circulation of it.
 Thinks Victory Great
 Do you think the victory as great now as you did in 1s25?" ask

Reads Statement

Bishop Cannon read a prepared statement asserting he intended no contempt Of the senate" m with drawing from the committee hear .ng last week.
 T intended no dsscourcesy." he said, | certainly thought ! had the right,
 T am here again today as q vol un,ary witness concerning the activ- .-Ies Of the board Of the N. L. church south
 However, as 10 questions on h.s own political activities, the bishop asked the committee 10 consider his objections to answering.
 The statement read to the cou- n.it-ee by Cannon follows:
 'AIr. Chairman and Members Of
 the Committee,
 T desire 10 say that, when I with drew from the hearing on Thursday, May ;, ] made a statement, the pur- pose Of which was to indicate that l vas not on the stand any longer as voluntary witness, and I stated that I should retire from further hearings Of the committee unless q subpoena vas issued
 T thought that. as I had volun- taAred to appear before the commit -t-e to give information concerning the activities Of the board of tenn perance and soclaI service Of the Methodist Episcopal church. south. that I had the right Q retire if I so desired unless q subpoena was is- sued.
 Thought It Unfair
 Furthermore, as there never had been q quorum Of the committee present and the objections which I had raised D questioning me con- cernlng my political activities had never been passed upon by the com n1IttAe. ] thought 1t vas unfair and illegal 10 continue to question me on my political activities until answer had been given 70 my objections.
 Tn taking this action it never oc- cured ro me rhat l would be charg- ed with showing contempt for the senate, for I certainly had no such intention. but l understand from statements ln the press that some members Of the ccmmittee consider that my action vas in open con- tempt of the senate.
 Whatever may be the real techni- cal status on that point. I desire to state now before the committee, as I did in my statement 10 the press On Friday night I intended TO dis courtesy 10 the senate or the mem bers Of the Eenate committee by re- tlrIng as voluntary witness from the committee room on Thursday morning Certainly I thought l had the right to do so, in order that there may be no implication of q purpose which I did not intend
 As have understood that q quorum of the committee will be present this morning. I am here again today, if the committee so de- sires, as @ voluntary witness. to give any additional information concern ing the activities Of the board of temperance and social service of the Methodist Episcopal church, south.
 Should any member Of the com mittee desire to ask questions con- cernIng my political activities in the anti-Smith campaign, I respectfully request that g full committee con- sider my objections which I raised 10 the answering of such questions on Tuesday morning, June (see record pages 12t32-3D and Wedncs- day morning, June (see record, page 12l78).

FORCED ARREST MEMBERS
 GET QUORUM

WASHINGTON, May 15. R- For the first time in eight years the House of Representatives was forced to order the arrest of it's members last night to secure quorum. One of the first to be escorted into the chamber was Speaker Longworth, who was brought in by the Sergeant-at- Arms. The move came over relatively unimportant measure.
 For six hours the House found itself in a filibuster as two mem- bers exhausted every parliamentary manuever to prevent action on the measure, until they were power less to act in any other direction. even to adjournment.
 The House approved the Quinn motion for the order of arrest Af- ter quorum had been establish ed the House voted to bring up the bill, which was for the expan- sion of the foreign agriculture information service, for final ac- tion Friday. The House then ad- journed.

MCBRIDE SPEAKS AGAIN

 "It used to be about ninety five percent, did it not?" asked Senator Caraway, chairman of the committee. Mcbride said it was never that high.
 Caraway said he never found the league supporting anybody ex- cept Republicans. Mcbride said that the league furnished the White House with information on prospective appointees, but had no other contact with the presi- dent.
