II approved.
Recent legislation increasing
Federal salaries reduces the ex-
pected surplus still further by ST.
100000.
The Is per cent cut in water
rates is expected to pass without
objection since the water depart
ment has already created sub
stantial surplus and enjoys reve-
nueS far in excess Of operation
costs.
Not Recommended
Neither the Georgetown library
nor Eastern Avenue bridge were
recommended by the Budget Bu-
reau though sought by the District
Commissioners. Their inclusion in
the bill is in answer to urgent
pleas by citizens at the hearings.
CONSERVATION at the District
Building over the bill centerS
around the $37.323 reduction for
the p. U. c. This will entail q
40 per cent reduction in salaries
or q corresponding dismissal Of
employees and will sadly cripple"
the entire organization in the
opinion of Acting Chairman Riley
E. Elgen.
Personnel of the Alcohol Bever-
age Control Board are equally
hard hit by a so per cent slash
IN their recommended appropria-
1don.

members of the committee ex-
plained police are able to perform
the work of inspectors in just as
efficient and satisfactory q way.
No Appropriation
: Resumption Of the southeast in
Einerator is authorized, but car
Fdes no appropriation. This is be-
cause the District Commissioners
pointed out the plant could be
operated part time without extra
cost by shutting down the George
town incinerator for a similar
period.
: For relief, the committee rec
ommendS $1,300,0O0 as suggested
by the Budget Bureau, but urges
that the amount be substantially
reduced in 1895 because Of Fed
eral relief activities and because
there are many persons who will
never seek employment while these
funds are available"
: Another section denies to de-
-partments the privilege of divert
ang funds appropriated for a GER
tain purpose to any other activ-
zdty. A single exception is that the
District Commissioners are au-
-thorized to use street cleaning
and sweeping funds to remove
-Snow.
!. Light Item Boosted
= In addition the traffic light
item was boosted from $4,000 to
! S65, 600; the Waterman charge
reduced from So to $3.50 per
-linear foot to encourage suburban
~home building; and $1,000 set
aside for installation Of new and
more police car radios.
: This last will give Washington
n police communication system
second to none in the United
States, the committee claims.

who testified as to sending the
checks to Bishop Cannon.
Kresge Check Identified
Amos F. Gregory, secretary to
s. s. Kresge, wealthy chain store
owner, identified a check for
$1,000 sent by Mr.. Kresge to
Bishop Cannon as chairman Of
the anti-smith campaign commit
tee.
D. Gold Miller, West Virginia
apple grower, also was called to
the stand to identify two checks,
but the District Attorney made
no mention of their amounts, who
drew them, or to whom they were
sent.
Harry M. Lawder, assistant
postmaster at Richmond, testified
that the committee applied for per-
mits to use third class mail for
sending out advertising during
the campaign.
On direc testimony yester.
day, Mr.. Jameson testified that
he made no distinction as to
whether Bishop Cannon was head
of the Virginia anti-Smith Demo-
Gratis or of the organization
throughout the Southern States,
in contributing the money. He
added that he believed it was to
be used throughout the various
States to defeat Mr.. Smith.
Believed Bishop Sincere
Under cross-examination by
Robert H. McNeill, defense coun-
sci, Mr.. Jameson later admitted
he had written a letter intro
duced before a Senate investi.
eating committee in 1890 in
which he said he believed the
contribution was to be used for
the campaign in Virginia. The
letter was produced by Mr.. Nc
Neill. Asked whether he had
confidence in Bishop Cannon'S
sincerity at the time, Mr.. Jane
son replied:
II certainly wouldn't have
turned it over to him if 1
didn't have confidence in him"
The defense has contended
that Bishop Cannon was not
bound by law to make a report
of expenditures in Virginia alone
to the clerk of the House Of
Representatives, and contended
that only small portion Of the
money was used in other States,
Of which a report was made.
Used His Salary
In an opening statement Mr..
McNeill said Bishop Cannon was
so interested in the campaign
that he had "raked and scraped"
every dollar he could together,
even selling his house here for
$4,000 and contributing his an
nual $4,000 salary as bishop. In
all, he said, Bishop Cannon
loaned the committee about
$4,000 and this was refunded
to him from the Jameson con-
tribution.
United States Attorney Leslie
c. Garnett and his assistants,
Roger Robb and John J. Wilson,
said they expect to have present
ed their case by Friday, but pre-
dicted that it would continue far
into next week. The defense will
present IA witnesses, practically
all of them leaders in the Meth
odist Episcopal Church, South.
and active in the anti-Smith
campaign in 1928.
