JAMESON TELLS
OF CANNON FUND
Wealthy Insurance Man
Was Anxious to Beat
Alfred E. Smith

Washington, April 10.-CUP}--.
E. j. Jameson, witness at the cor
rupt practices trial of Bishop
James Cannon, Jr, to-day told how
he paid $65,300 to obtain the de-
feat of Alfred E. Smith in the 1928
presidential campaign.
Smilingly, the wealthy New York
insurance executive explained that
he gave this cash in installments to
the bishop of the Methodist Epis-
copal church, south. in the hope
that Cannon could obtain votes for
Herbert Hoover in the south.
This contribution led directly to
the governments charges against
Cannon. The bishop is accused OF
reporting to the House of Repre-
sentatives clerk, as required by the
corrupt practices act, only a small
part of Jameson's gift.
Jameson explained that he was
anxious to keep Smith from being
elected president.
II was asked to support the
campaign of the anti-Smith demo-
Gratis of which Bishop Cannon was
the head and finally agreed to do
so to the extent of $4,000.

mary object the carrying of Vir-
