CLAIM CANNON
IN CONSPIRACY
IN FUNDS USE
Attorney Charges Bishop
Used Jameson Funds
in Election
IL MEN, ONE WOMAN
CONSTITUTING JURY

WASHINGTON, April 10. (UP)
The ghosts of a vanished politi-
cal campaign arose today to pa
rade in evidence at the trial of
the militant Bishop James Can
non, Jr., central figure in a his
tory-making battle to shake the
south from it's traditional de-
mocracy.
First witnesses were called to-
day in the trial of the greying
bishop and his secretary, Ada
Burroughs. a middle-aged spin
ster, on charges of evading the
corrupt practices act.
The trial comes after a sixyear
political controversy over the ac-
tivities of the Southern Method
list bishop in aiding the defeat of
Alfred E. Smith, Democratic
presidential nominee in 1928.
Cannon and his secretary are
charged with concealing DISPOSE
ton of all but $4,000 of a $685.
900 fund contributed by E. G.
Jameson, New York insurance
executive. to aid Cannon's anti
Smith campaign in the south.
Four southern states broke DEM
ocratic lines in 1928 for the first
time since the Civil war and Can
non was credited with a consid-
cradle share in the event.
Charges of an elaborate con-
spiracy to conceal the dispersal
of campaign funds opened the
trial. Assistant U. S. Attorney
John J. Wilson charged that Can
non converted a considerable por-
ton of the Jameson funds to his
own use and covered up opera
tons through bookkeeping and
other devices.
The jury of II men and one
woman was questioned closely re-
garding their religious beliefs.
They were also asked whether
they had ever had any part IN
the wet and dry issue.

RECOVERY ILLUSION,'
WALLACE IS QUOTED

WASHINGTON, Apr. 10. (UP)
The Writ hearing adjourned to-
day until 10 a. m. tomorrow.
Lawrence Todd denied all Of
Wirt's testimony with the excep-
ton of the fact that he attended
the dinner in question.
WASHINGTON. April 10. (UP),
DR.. William A. Writ named Law
renee Todd of the Soviet Tass
News Agency as the person who
referred to President Roosevelt
as the "Kerensky of this revo-
luton" when he appeared before
the congressional investigating
committee on his charges today.
Todd has no connections with
the brain trust or federal gov
eminent. He was correspondent
here for the Federated Press, or
ganized labor publication, before
joining the Tass agency. He is
an American citizen and is a
descendent of soldier who
fought in the American Revolu-
ton.
The Todd revelation came
shortly after Writ named six
lesser "brain trusters," three Of
them women, as present at a
party last September at which
revolution charges were brought
out.
The designation OF Todd ap-
peared to bring the Writ "red"
scare to an anti-climax after an
hour and rs minutes Of testi-
mony by the Indiana educator.
The "red" hunt was started by
a statement contained in an ar
ticle written by Writ that one
Roosevelt "brain truster" COM
pared the president to Kerensky,
who was the forerunner of the
communist revolution which had
led Soviet Russia to Stain.
At the dinner held in Virginia
at which were present Todd and
minor federal employees Writ said
Miss Hilegarde Kneeland of the
home economics section of the
department of agriculture told
him that Professor Rexford q.
Tugwell and Secretary Of agri-
culture Wallace believed that the
recovery was only an illusion"
Writ named the following as
"brain trusters" who told him the
"red" plot: Robert Breure, chair
man of the textile code advisory
board; David Cushman Coyle,
Todd, Miss Kneeland, Mary Tay-
lor, agriculture department eco
nomist and Alice Barrows of the
department of education.

Key to Return to Jobs

NO STRIFE SEEN in
DIXIE MINE STRIKE

CHICAGO, April 10.-(UP)-
Labor strikes, centering in the
automobile and allies industries
today cast an ominous shadow
over efforts of President RooSe-
welt to maintain harmonious rela-
tions between employers and en-
ployes. :.
Upward of $4,000 workers in
many parts of the country re-
NAMED awav from their jobs
Threatened strikes, if they ma
terialize, would involve many
thousands of others. Rumbllngs
of agricultural unrest also were
heard.
Union workers in the automo-
bile industry, where threat
ened strike of 100000 men was
averted three weeks ago by the
president, protested that the auto
mobile labor board was not en-
forcing the terms OF the truce.
The American Federation OF
Labor sent a strongly worded pro
test to Washington, charging that
the labor board was dealing I'M
fairly with labor in its efforts to
settle disputes over alleged dis
examinations against union en-
ployes by employers.
The protest, representing nifty
factories in Detroit, declared that
the board has settled the discrlml-
nation disputes "by mediation ra-
Their than decision as provided in
the agreement" and in addition
was delaying setting up of colIec-
tive bargaining machinery.
The situation in Detroit was
alleviated somewhat last night by
the announcement of settlement
of the strike of $500 employees
of the Motor Products corpora
ton. A 10 per cent wage IN
crease was granted. The men
agreed to return to work today,
thus ending a strike which yester-
dav caused shutdown at the
Hudson Motor company plant
