ciple on which the Rev. Harold F.

Grated in his rescue work" among
girls was that of never giving any
one money for nothing" the rector
testified today in his trial on
charges Of immortality.
Mr.. Davidson said he often in

ity."

and had helped 200 Of them by
advice"
Sometimes, he testified. he had
girls type letters or do other cler-
ical work TO make them feel they
were earning his aid. but would tear
up the letters after they had left.
Denies Immoral Aims
"I want to call 481 of them to
get the evidence Of two unknown
women whom want examined. so
they may state the conversation
had with them" he said.
Have you ever spoken to any
Of these hundreds for immoral pur-
poses?" he was asked.
Never" he replied emphatically.
The rector testified that Hose
Ellis, one of the women with whom
he is accused of being familiar, had
told him that detectives on behalf
OF ecclesiastical authorities gave
her 40 shillings, and asked her to
visit him and encourage him to
spend more time with his wife.
He told her, he said:
you are twenty up on Judas. He
got twenty pieces Of silver; you got
forty"
A commotion was caused at the
trial shortly after the lunch inter-
val when Roland Oliver. counsel
for the bishop of Norwich. who is
conducting the prosecution, sug-
gested during REORGANIZATION of

rector showeIed barbara Harris, one
Of his girl friends. and others. with
gifts while his wife and four chill
dren were starving at Stiffkey, and
without coal"
Davidson admitted he gave Miss
Harris a skirt. blouse and watch.
but said his family was provided
With fuel and coal. even If he did
owe bills for months in the village.
Previously. Davidson had admit
ted his girl acquaintance might
have numbered as high as 1000.

Sees Big Roosevelt
Majority in State

Fargo, N. D., Nov. 4.--(P-A pre-
diction that Franklin D. Roosevelt
will carry North Dakota by a ma
jority likely to exceed 10000 votes was
made from Democratic state head
quarters here by H. H. Perry of Ell
lendale, the partys national COM
mitteeman from North Dakota.
Eleven years of unfaithful Repub-
lican leadership have left the voters
OF this state cold to Hoover prophe-
cies and promises says Perry.
North Dakota was the first state
in a primary campaign to pledge its
delegates to Governor Roosevelt's
candidacy, and the wisdom of his
nomination has been evinced by a
growing confidence and estee m
throughout the state.
North Dakota has faith that Gov
ernor Roosevelt can and will restore
agriculture to a position of equality
with industry in our economic life
His election will mark the turning
point in this agricultural depression
and its effect will be Immediately
manifest in the renewed courage and
confidence Of our people.
His majority in the state will be
sufficiently large to carry with him
the entire congressional and state
ticket"
