so bushels of beans in this coun-

We'll keep On hoping.

Vanderbilt Did Meet
II DuCe, Record Shows

ROME, Feb. 2 G.N.SD.-The
question of whether or not Cor
nelius Vanderbilt. jr., saw Premier
Mussolini in Rome in 1925 was
answered in the affirmative today.
Following an exhaustive search
Of the records it was revealed
that Vanderbilt did have a brief
audience with II Duce five years
ago, similar to brief audiences
granted to hundreds of visitors
annually.
The statement from official
quarters added, however, that the
audience was so brief that it left
no impression on the premier's
memory.
This explains why the premier
last Friday authorized a state
ment to be circularized by Inter
national News Service saying:
'T never saw Cornelius Van
derOilt in my life"
Today's explanation reiterated
: that Vanderbilt had not been the
guest Of the premier and that II
Duce never drove Vanderbilt in
his own or any other car.

the estate was to be held by the
National Metropolitan Bank for
Mrs. Wholean's benefit, and at
her death the trust was to be dis
solved and paid over to her
children.
Mrs. Henderson Ill
Explaining that Mrs. Henderson
is about 80 years old, and has
been ill for a long period, Mrs.
Wholean asserts that "her judg-
ment has been greatly impaired,
and is insufficient to enable her
to properly deal with matters of
such magnitude" as is necessary
properly to manage the two es-
tates."
She informs the court that Mrs.
Henderson has frequently at
tempted to deal with the real es-
tate involved in the two estates as
though it were her own, and as
serts the belief that her grand
mother already has disposed of
many hundreds of thousands of
d Jllars worth of property, and has
used some of the money in pur-
chasing and improving other
properties which stand in her own
name, including the home which
has been offered to the Federal
Government.

called before the Grand Jury to-
day in its investigation of the
death Of the girl.
Boyer said he heard two shots

on the morning of December 81.
Another important witness will
be DR.. Lyman Green, Of Casualty
Hospital, who pronounced the girl
dead. He will tell the jury about
the appearance of the body and
the bed when he was called TO
the house. He formerly testified
clean sheets and pillow slips
were on the bed and that the
girls appearance was like one

Mrs. Pearl Poston, a neighbor,
will also be called to the stand
to tell of orgies" which she
claims were held at the house

entered the hospital again and Is
still there attempting to get
strength for the ordeal confront.
ing him.
The inquiry starting tomor-
row is one Of the most unusual
in the history of Methodism.
Strict secrecy surrounds the entire
affair.
Names of the IL clerics who
will hear the charges against
the crusader have been con-
cealed even from members of the
church.
Bishop AinswOrth En- Route
Bishop William N. Ainsworth,
of Birmingham, president of the
College of Bishops of the
Methodist Episcopal Church,
South, is en- route here to preside
at the trial.
But the veil Of secrecy cast
over the whole affair extends to
him. Methodist leaders in Wash
ington refused to give out the
time Of his arrival or where he
will stay while here.
Location of the room where
the IL elders will meet in the
unusual probe of the charges
against a bishop is also con
cealed and the doors Of the
church will be locked and
guarded to prevent eavesdroppers
from gaining entrance.
The present inquiry amounts
to a grand jury hearing. II
the majority of the jurors de
eide that the bishop is guilty
of the charges he will be sus
pended and brought to trial at
the next general conference OF
the church in 1884.
Majority to Rule
On the other hand, if the
majority of the IL clerics decide
the charges are unfounded they
will take no action and the
bishop will continue in his office
The board can take no formal
action other than suspend the
bishop from his office until such
time as the general conference is
called.
The nature Of the charges
against Bishop Cannon have
never been revealed. They were
preferred by four elders of the
church.
DR.. Forest Prettyman, of Balti,
more, one of the elders who
brought the charges, today de.
clared that they "are not politi.
CAL" He refused to comment
further.
This statement set at rest the
belief that the charges have to
deal with Bishop Cannons ac-
tivities in the 1923 campaign
when the bishop led the fight
against Al Smith in the South.

softening the action against Gen
eral Butler was said to be the Ad'
ministration's dread of having the
case dragged out for weeks and
''sensa ationalized" in the newSpa-
pers. 1t was pointed out that the
United States has now formally
apologized to Mussolini and that
the italian premier has accepted
It tn the observation that he
.lslders the incident closed
In view of this fact, it has Leen
urged upon President Hoover and
Secretary Adams that for the Gov
ernment to proceed to try General
Butler for an offenSe that MuSso-
lini, the injured party, considers
ended with the apology, would
only serve to keep the matter
alive and perhaps lead to addi-
tional embarrassment.
General Buffers only defense
Of his action obviously is to be
that he believed the story con-
corning Mussolini to be true, and
that he repeated it in good faith.
In Substantiation, he would feel
compelled to call to the witness
stand his informant, Cornelius
Vanderbilt, jr.
Would Be Embarrassing
If young Vanderbilt took the
witness stand and vouched for
the truth Of the story, it would
unquestionably create another en-
barrassing circumstance.
Young Vanderbilt could not be
disciplined" by the Government,
for he has no official position,
and thus the upshot Of the whole
proceeding might we'll be to give
furtheI currency to a story that
has been officially denied by the
head Of a friendly government.
In italy, II DGce has the power
TO punish his detractors, whether
they be in government service or
not. italian jailS are filled with
those who disagree with the Die
tator. He might not understand
the American Governments pow
erleSSness to chastise Vanderbilt,
If that young man went on the
witness stand and offered his own
word against that of II Duce that
the story was founded on fact.
