had been subpoenaed to appear
before the committee.
S. Testimony that William Dud-
ley Pelley, leader of the Silver
Shirts and now a fugitive from
Justice, planned to install himself
in the White HOUSE and Hltlerlze
America.
With department of justice and
labor agents again present and
taking notes, the committee
learned from two witnesses of
fanciful plans Sthat were to ne
pushed to put Pelley in the White
House as the head of a Chris
tian democracy"
It was to be "bloodless revo-
luton" at the polls, Toal testified.
"You mean seriously, that the
plans of Mr.. Pelley were to end
with himself as president of the
United States through the efforts
of his Silver Shirts?" asked Nc
Cormack. ;. :,
"Why, yes; why not?" replied
Toal.
Pelley, according to George 5.
Anderson, a former business as
sociate, had even gone to the ex-
tent of having his picture taken
in a striking pose, and of having
it broadcast in the Silver Shirt
magazine, "The Liberator." The
picture bore this caption: us TINS
the American Hitler?"
1t was while Toal was connect
ed with the Silver Shirts organ
ization that the propaganda con-
corning the president was dissem-
mated.
One letter pointed out the num-
Der of Jews heading various gov
eminent departments and added:
Last but not least, reputable
investigators seeking to establish
correctly the Roosevelt family
genealogy are forced to the con-
clusion that the presidents for
bears were Dutch Jews by the
original name of Rosenfeld, mas
much as they report that they can
find no traces of the Roosevelts
in the vital statistics of Holland,
country known for the we'll
nigh religious keeping of the
name"
Mccormack criticized Toal for
bringing the presidents name into
the propaganda and forced the
witness to admit that he had no
definite proof of his charges.

sion, whose task it will be to

Chairman E. B. Jeffress of the
commission said yesterday:
The commission was unable to

gotiations will proceed with re-
gard to this bridge until some

While it is not yet known just
how Governor Ehringhaus and

bridges may be purchased at
once, and the tolls removed.

RALEIGH, June S.-Friends Of
Governor J. c. B. Ehringhaus here
maintain that the outcome of the
primary last Saturday was dis
tinct victory for him and for the
continuation of the sales tax as
an emergency revenue measure =
and point out that several of thes
more vigorous opponents of the
sales tax, including d. f. Turner
of Iredell county. president of the
North Carolina Fair Tax associa-
tion which put on a statewide
campaign against the sales tax,
were defeated. They regard it az -
significant that John Paul Leonr !,
ard, secretary of the Fair Tax as
ISOLATION, also a resident of Ire
dell county, was not able to carry :,
his home county for the president
Of his association, resident OF
the same county.
1t is also recalled here that it
was President Turner, while pre-, I
siding over the State Merchants
association meeting last summer >
who read the newspaper clipping
purporting to quote Mrs. Ehring-t
haus, while on shopping trip in
Norfolk, as expressing relief at
not having to pay the sales tax.
1t was known here then, as it Is
now, that the clipping from which-o
he read was a facetious auip at
the Governor and Mrs. Ehring-
haus from W. .. Saunders Eliza
beth City Independent that was
not printed as fact and that at
! the time Mrs. Ehringhaus was said
to have been shopping in Norfolk
she was in hospital there and
unable to walk. "
I Another vigorous antl-sales tax
er defeated in the primary Satur-
day was D. Emerson Scarborough p
of Richmond county. one OF the
most bitter and vindictive oppon-
ents of the sales tax in both the
1881 and 1888 legislatures.

cant that in Granville county, the
