CANNON CANNOT ESCAPE THE DISCLOSURE
He Must Tell What Was Done With Some $63,- 800 He Spent to Beat Alfred E. Smith

Washington, Aug 13.-UP)- The senate campaign funds inves- tigating committee. fortified by a favorable court ruling. prepared today to rress its inquiry into the 1928 pr .sldential election election activities of Bishop James Cannon Jr. of .re Methodist Episcopal Church, south.
 The churchmans lawyers were drafting r., appeal from the ruling of Distri t of Columbia supreme court justice Joseph w. Cox who denied Cannon legal protection from the senate inquiry. But the appeal was not expected to gain q hearing early enough to halt the Nye inquiry.
 The district court of appeals is adjourneo until fall and its mem- bers scattered. By the time 1t con- venes, Ny is expected to have completed his inquiry, scheduled for late r.. the month.
 Several witnesses are said to be ready to tell what use Cannon made of the unaccounted portion of S63,5IO given him by F.. C. Jameson, New Works capitalist, to oppose the, election of Alfred E. Smith.
 In the court proceedings yester- day Cannrr's counsel vainly sought a writ 0: prohibition against the commit 20 on the grounds that 1t attempted to usurp the functions of grand jury and deprive him of his constitutional rights.

RETRIAL OF THE GROVE COMPANY CASE ORDERED
Judge Hincks Makes Deci- sion To-day First Trial Went Against Crows Co for $3,995

Judge Carroll c. Hincks of this city. in a decision handed down to-
 day in the United States district
 court in New Haven, ordered a re- trial of the $4,000 damage suit of
 Walter R. Lubold against Grove and Company, Inc. of Waterbury.
 Tn recent trial of the action the plaintiff was granted $3,995 dam ages against the local concern. At the hearing before Judge
 Hincks, motions were heard from
 both the plaintiff and defendant to set aside the verdict. The court re-
 fused the motion of the plaintiff
 but granted the appeal of the de- fendant on the ground that the testimony of the plaintiff was in- consistent and should have been
 discounted by the jury which heard the evidence.
 The suit concerns an accident which took place in Plainville last
 winter. The plaintiff claimed that
 he had stopped his car at the side of the road when the truck of the
 local company crashed into him
 head on.
 The local concern claimed that
 the machine of the plaintiff was
 moving diagonally across the road and that the driver of the truck
 was unable to avoid the collision The Grove truck, according to the
 evidence, was stopped within seven feet of the collision.

HOOVER PLAN FOR GERMANY FAILS
 AND C0LLAPSES
Long Term Credits to Fi- nance German Imports of Cotton and Wheat Did Not Set We'll

Berlin, Aug 13.-(UP)-Collapse of President Hoover's proposal to extend long-term credits to finance German Imports of cotton and wheat from America was believed complete to-day.
 The reported collapse was as- signed to two factors:
 l. The United States cotton growers and wheat farmers were believed to have resented the farm boards efforts to dispose of last years stores instead of letting them sell their current crops di- rect.
 9. Both the United States and German l.tton and grain mer- chants opJected to letting their government, take this business out of their hands.
 It was understood here that both Germany offer to buy 800,000 bales of cotton at New York, Liv- erpool and Bremen prices and the offer to purchase 500,0O0 tons of wheat in the United States met cool receptions in Washington. The cotton offer was rejected by the farm boaid. The price question was the main point on which dis agreement blocked negotiations.
