SURPRISE

men who have made the COM
plant against the Bishop.
On conclusion of their evidence,
Bishop Cannon will be given an
opportunity to answer the COM
plant against him and may bring
in witnesses to prove his side OF
the case if he so desires.
Trial Halt Refused
The bishop lost the first round
in his battle to clear himself yes
terday when Bishop William N.
Ainsworth ruled that the hearing
must go on.
Bishop Cannon said the COM
plant should be dropped at this
time as they were not in proper
order under the canons of the
church.
The bishop also entered num-
ber of technical objections to the
introduction of evidence during
the sessions, but in all these he
was overruled by Bishop Aims
worth and the material was en-
tered in the records of the case.
It was reported that Bishop Can
non is preparing to make a sur
prise move in the case, but what
this consists of is ShrOuded in
deepest secrecy.
Regret was expressed by mem
bers of She clergy that the bishop
is i'll at this time and not in
fighting trim" to answer the
accusations brought against him.
Physicians who examined the
bishop last night reported he is in
condition to continue the inquiry.
Private Trial Opposed
Several of the clergy also voiced
disapproval of the method in
which Bishop Ainsworth is hand
ling the investigation. They de-
clared that they feel the accusa-
tions against Bishop Cannon
should be made public at this
time.
In a breif statement issued yes
terday Bishop Ainsworth ordered
that no one give any information
concerning the inquiry. AT the
conclusion of the hearing, he said,
he will announce the decision of
the board.

Mrs. WhOIean Sorry
Miss Harvard said she talked
with Mrs. Wholean yesterday, say
ing:
"Mrs. WhOlean is too sweet
person to become indicative
toward Mrs. Henderson. All
she said was: We'll, it's too
bad and feel sorry for Mrs.
Henderson. But all / can do
is just wait and see how mat

Miss Harvard added that she
believes Mrs. Henderson IS being
taken advantage of by employees
in her house. She believes, she
said, that Mrs. HenderSon's age
has affected her.
Plans Greek Legation
Undeterred by pending legal &C
ton which would prevent her from
giving the Vice President her Fiji
teenth Street mansion, Mrs. John
B. Henderson today said she in
tended to erect an imposing struc-
ture for the Greek Legation next
to her Fifteenth Street home.
Mrs. Henderson arouse almost
to fury because of the action in
stituted by Mrs. Beatrice Wholean
which would Illustrate any effort
to donate her home, today said
she was going ahead with plans to
erect the legation which would
probably "outrival any embassy or
legation in Washington. She said:
II know the Greek minister
very well and have discussed
giving my property next to my
Fifteenth Street mansion for a
legation. I don't care what Mrs.
WhOlean says or does l intend
to go through with this project.
1t is my property, and am de-
termined to do with it as
want to-"
Mrs. Henderson then accom-
panied The Times reporter to the
rear of her mansion and explained
how Improvements could be made
to the adjacent ground for the
legation.

National City Bank Head Sees
Worldwide Harm to Come
of Cash Bonus Bond Issue

Immediate cash payment of the
$3,500,000,000 soldiers bonus"
through sale of Government bonds
would have a depressing effect
upon the whole world, George E.
Roberts, vice president OF the
National City Bank of New York,
told the House Ways and Means
Committee today.
Among its evil results, he said,
probably would be the stopping
Of foreign financing in this coun-
try for several years. This, he
ssid, would prevent recovery of
other countries and check Amer
ica's export trade.
Mr.. Stephenson said that float
ing of a huge bond issue to pay
the certificates would depress the
price of bonds, perhaps raise
taxes and make more difficult
the financing of legitimate in
dustry.
Speaking of the world situa-
ton, Roberts said one of the diff
ficulties was that foreign coun-
tries had been drained Of gold
to pay the United States The
Bank of England, he said, is find
ing difficulty in maintaining its
reserve.
Thornton Cooke, president Of
the Columbia National Bank, Of
Kansas City, Mo, also opposed
cash payment.
He suggested that Congress
might give aid directly to the
100000 to 100000 unemployed
veterans.

Davis to Defend Butler
Leonard will be assisted in the
case by John w. Davis. also a
member of the Italo-American So
ciety, and Harris w. Watkins.
Philadelphia lawyer and former
campaigner with Butler in the
Marine Corps.
Progress will lag because of fail
ure of the Navy to present spe-
cific charges it will make when
the court martial convenes in
Philadelphia Navy Yard. Secre-
tary of the Navy Adams an

to complete them are under way

staff of the Fourth Naval district
headquarters at Philadelphia, and

will try Butler, was here to as
Sist Sellers.
Coolidge Comment Resented
Butler has maintained silence
since his arrest. and Leonard
said the policy of the Butler de-
fense would be to talk only when
the court martial conveneS.
One new development in the
case was revealed when it was
learned Butler has taken eXcep'
ton to a reference to the Incl
dent by former President Cool
idge in his newspaper column
Butler, it was learned, may charge
before the court that Coolidge,
himself a lawyer. has pre-judged
the case publicly, and exercise
his right to question court mem
bers as to whether they were
influenced by the former PreSi'
dents statements.
This could have little if any
effect on the hearing, it was
pointed out. as regulations gov
erning court martial differ from
those in civil trials.

FOOD FUND TILT
MPROM|SE
EXPECTED
Hoover will Yield in Fight
Over Drought Relief, Senate
Leaders Say After Council

The controversy between PreSi-
dent Hoover and the Senate over
drought relief funds today edge
toward q settlement on a COM
promise plan of appropriating
$15,OOO,0O to be used if the Red
Cross fails to alleviate starvation
in the drought areas.
The Presidents statement on
the drought controversy, strangely
cOnciliatOry in tone, was credited
with having paved the way to a
settlement.
He appeased some of his critics
by conceding they we're "actuated
by the highest motives" in fight
ing for a direct appropriation of
Federal relief funds, but justified
his own opposition by declaring
the Red Cross could take care of
the situation without Government
assistance.
Conference Called
Administration leaders struggled
to work out compromise. Sena.
tors Watson and McNary were to
see the President today.
The suggestion of a $4,000, 900
compromise-the money to be di-
rectly appropriated and expended
either though the Red Cross or
through the Secretary of Agricul-
ture-may not meet with COM
plete accord in either the insur-
gent or Democratic ranks, but
despite scattered opposition, it un-
doubtedly would be approved by
the Senate.
Willing to Compromise
Debate in the Senate brought
the issue to a head and sent
Administration leaders to the
White House to demand conces-
sionS from the President. They
found him willing to compromise,
despite an Interpretation placed
on his statement that he was
unalterably opposed to direct ap,
preparation for relief.

Nine Babies Rescued
Captain Delaney, matron of the

Napier is a veritable shambleS,
with dead, dying and injured
lying in the streets and injured
victims crowding hopeleSsly into

An operation which was being
performed in a private hospital
was interrupted by the first
quake. The patient was immedi-
ately transferred to the open air
where the operation was COM
pleted successfully by the light of
the flames of the burning city.
One of the minor tragedies of
the catastrophe is that while
Napier survivors are in want of
food, 10000 carcasses of meat are
rotting in the Wairoa Refrigera-
ton Works, so miles north of
Napier. The refrigeration system
was damaged by the quake.

CHICKEN POX IN POULTRY

Chicken poX, although not very
common in Sussex county, is one of
the most contagious poultry dis
eases. 1t makes its appearance in the
form of irregular patches on the
comb, wattles, eyelids and around
the beak and nOstrils. These sores
are soon covered with dark brown
scabs and often increase so rapidly
that the birds have difficulty in op-
ening their eyes and beaks and if
neglected many will die. Anyone
who has ever had pox in the flocks
know only too well what the losses
are. The loss in weight, loss in
production or retarding develop
ment, ETC., take a heavy toll in the
fall or winter and simpy knock the
profits at the time poultry products
are highest.
Chicken pOX can now be prevent
ed by proper vaccination. This has
been proved in many states where
it has been used on thousands of
fOcks. 1t is a tried and proved
method and the immunity is quite
permanent. The method of vaccinat-
ing is very simple and easy and al
most anyone who has the necessary
material can do it himself.
In order to show how this can be
done, H. R. Baker, Poultry Patholo-
gist of the State Board of Agricul-
ture, has planned to hold several
demonstration meetings in the coun-
ty. County Agent C. r. Snyder
states that these meetings will be
held at the following places:
