Pleased at Conduct
of the Trial
BY FREDERICK C. OTHMAN

UNITED Press Stan correspondent
Washington. April 13.-(UP)-
Wrangling between opposing at
torneys in the trial of Bishop
James Cannon, Jr, today brought
the statement that the proceedings
were IAN outrage"
Justice Peyton Gordon ended
the argument abruptly by telling
Defense Attorney Robert H. Nc
Neill that the court would decide
what constituted an outrage. IL any.
The controversy started in
cross Of Lee P. oliver.
special agent of the department OF
Justice, who testified yesterday
about conference between Can
non and the district attorney in
1881.
McNeill charged that divers
testimony had been led by the
prosecution and that he had not
told the whole truth about Can
mons cash transactions in his 1928
campaign against Alfred e. Smith.
When Justice Gordon overruled
McNeill's objection, the latter ex-
claimed:
IT think 1t is an outrage. am
going to protect the rights of my
client even II the heavens fall"
"You will get your rights and
the heavens are not going to fall, y
retorted the justice. And l would
prefer that you did not tell me
what makes an outrage"
United States Attorney Leslie c.
Garnet observed at that point that
he was getting tired of the ''in-
jured attitude" of the defense and
Mcneil apologized to the court.
Then the proceedings continued.
Today's session started more than
an hour late because Justice Cor

THE BACKLOG OF FAMILY SAVINGS

A wise purchaser, buying shoes, an automobile,
jewelry or anything else, considers two prime factors.
One is the price of the desired commodity. The other is its
quality. Price counts-5ut it isn't everything.
That principle of buying, as a pamphlet issued by
the National Board of Fire Underwriters points out,
should govern the buying of fire insurance, as we'll as less
necessary commodities and services. Stock fire insurance
is sold at q definite, fixed price. The cost is h known, and
as long as a policy is in effect it will not vary. There's no
chance Of your being assessed to make up losses. If the
company issuing the policy has a bad year the stockhold-
es bear the burden, not the policyholders.
AS the pamphlet says, it is easy to buy bargain
fire insurance. 1t costs you slightly less than that issued
by a responsible stock company-if all goes well. If the
concern issuing it sustains tremendous losses there's an
other story to be told. The policy you believe is standing
between you and ruin may prove a liability like those
bargain suits you've probably bought, which you wore a
few times an dthen gave to the moths.
AS a matter of fact, stock fire insurance is remark
ably cheap. Before the war it cost about $1.10 for each
$100 of insurance written. In 1892 it cost about 70 cents
a reduction of 80 per cent. How many other industries
can show such a saving to customers, while at the same
time rendering a greater service? The rate charged today
is less than three-fourths Of one per cent per year.
You can't afford to gamble with your solvency and
your savings for your family.
