'OUSTED MORGAN
TO APPEAR AGAIN
in iva INQUIRY
Gets Chance to Answer
LiIienthaI Charges

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Aug. 20
dNS0.-The congressional COM
mittee investigating the iva to-
day planned to resume its hear
ings Monday to give DR.. Arthur
E. Morgan, deposed iva head, a
chance to reply to the latest
charge made against him.
AS the hearing broke up for
the weekend recess amid a scene
which proved "too much" for Sem
ator Vic Donahey, committee
chairman, David Lilienthal, a iva
director, accused DR.. Morgan Of
causing the current investigation
by false pretense" through a
fineSse.
Lilienthal said the cause Of the
probe was erroneous interpreta-
ton of DR.. Morgan's accusations
Of dishonesty and secrecy in pub
lie administration" to mean per.
sonal corruption"
ASSAILS MORGAN
He recalled that DR.. Morgan
later explained he did not mean
the accusations to apply to indi-
viduals on the IVA baord.
But, with his usual finesse,
DR.. Morgan waited until May
IS when it was too late to make
his lame explanations as to
what he meant. If DR.. Morgan
had told the truth about the
matter or explained he did not
believe H. A. Morgan (another
iva directory and I were try
ing to put over a steal there
never would have been any in
vestigation."
Lilienthal also testified the

ings with Senator George L. Berry
over marble claims. He denied
condemnation proceedings an Sen
ator Berry's marble lands were
delayed until after the 1885 ma
tional elections because Of politi-
cal reasons.
Kisses AND BOOS
Lilienthal frequently claShed
with Representatives Wolverton,
of New Jersey. and Jenkins, of
Ohio, two Republican members
of the committee. At one point
Representative jenkins said he
had found no reason to retract a
statement he made on the floor
of the House that "the IVA is a
stencil in the nostrilS Of the pub
lic."
His words were greeted by
Kisses and boos from pro-TVA
spectators. Representative Jenkins
invited the "hisserS" outside, but
laughlingly declined when he
found most of them were women.
Senator Donahey, Democrat, of
Ohio, remarked the scene was too
much for me" and, as chairman,
adjourned the session until Mon
day.

GEORGE LINKS
REDS TO SOME
NEW DEALERS

MACON. Ca, Aug. 20 GN.S0.
Widening the breach between him
self and the National Administra-
ton, U. s. Senator Walter F.
George today had characterized
"some New Dealers" as plain
Communists"
Addressing a crowd that jammed
the City Auditorium here Geor-
gia's senior Senator said:
Some New Dealers are moth
more or less than plain Com
munistS."
Senator George. opposed for re-
election by former Governor
Eugene Talmadge and U. 8. Dis
trict Attorney Lawrence Camp
who received Endorsement of Presi-
dent oosevelt-made no direct
attack upon the nations Chief
Executive.
COMMENTS ON DUNLAP
However, he called the Admin
istration to ask for the asked
for-resignation Of Edgar Dunlap
Georgia counsel for the Recon
struction Finance Corporation.
If" said George, Dunlap is
to lose office how can the PreSl-
dent justify the candidacy OF
another Federal officeholder
who has the aid Of his assist
ants"
The white haired Georgian OBJ
viously referred to Camp who has
not resigned as United States Dis
trict Attorney although a candl-
date for the Senatorial nomina-
ton in the September IA primary.
Declaring that if the President
is to invade one state he should
invade them all. Senator George
said:
IF President Roosevelt can
come into Georgia and ask you
to elect any one person as your
representative then it is his duty
to go into every state and select
the men he wants to come to
Congress.
Meanwhile former Governor
Talmadge, in a speech at Carter
vile, attacked both Senator
George and the New Deal. So far
as he is concerned, Talmadge said,
he wants mo anointment from
the President" adding:
"This is a bad year for coat

split UNHEALED
Wood Rejects Proposal
Of Pugh for Peace

ROCKVILLE, Md, Aug. 20.-Ar
attempt to align two Montgomery
county Democratic factions, both
opposing the United County Dem
ocratic organization as well as
each other, met with defeat here
today as the proposal made by
States Attorney James H. Pugh
was turned down by J. Sumner
Wood.
Pugh is a leader Of the O'Conor
for Governor Club of the county
and is also q candidate for the
State senate on the Independent
Democratic ticket, while Wood Is
also q candidate for the State
senate on the Democratic Tax Re.
duction Committee ticket.
WOOD STATES REASONS
Wood said that during an in
formal talk with Pugh yesterday
the latter indicated that If both
remained in the field for State
senate, both would meet with de-
feat at the hands of Robert Pc
ter, candidate for State senator
on the Democratic organization
ticket, and suggested that the
Tax Reduction Committee and
the Independent Democrats join
hands to fight the Organization.
He added in letter Of refusal
to Pugh today:
"You then suggested that you
run for State Senate, I for the
House Of Delegates, Mr.. Stephen
Fuller, our candidate continue
to run for county commissioner
(your candidate from the Be
thesda district to withdraw and
Dulaney Hunter, our candidate
for House of Delegates, run for
a position on the Democratic
State Central Committee.
CAMPAIGN OF ISSUES
IF the Independent Demo-
Gratis could see their way clear
to support the Tax Reduction
Democrats and the platform
they are pledged to we would be
very much pleased.
But our campaign Is a cam
paign Of issues rather than per.
sonalities or men, and If some
body else will carry forward our
issues and serve Montgomery
county, as we intend to do If
elected. then and only then
would we all be willing to step
out of politics.
But I regret to say that to
date no political party has come
forward with any platform that
conforms to the standards of
our own, and we have filed, and
win loose or draw, I must and
will remain in the race and
stand by the platform which
has appeared over my signature
because we believe it represents
the composite views Of the best
brains of the county as ex-
pressed through our county'S
local civic, school and farm Or
ganiZationS.

It is the consensus here that no
