Turning to Chief Justice Edward
G. Eicher, Mr.. Allen said: II resent
any implication that I am hostile to
the Government. I am here at q
great sacrifice to tell the truth as
I know it,
Mr.. Allen, who on direct testimony
identified letters and circulars in
troduced In evidence by the Govern
ment and related conversations with
some of the defendants, gave on
cross-examination more details Of
how he was excluded from Califor-
mia, the Atlantic Coast and Florida
by order of the Army.
The witness said that in Novem-
ber. 1912, while living in Pasadena,
he was ordered to appear before a
military board in Los Angeles. When
he asked the colonel who headed
the board what he was charged with,
Mr.. Allen testified, the colonel said
1t was none Of his business" After
a lapse Of 80 days, the witness testi-
fed that he was given 10 days to
leave California and he went with
his family to Dallas, Tex.
"Was anything said at your hear
ing before the board about your
membership in the Silver Shirts or
any other organization?" Mr.. Powers
asked.
Nothing whatever" said the
witness.
Mr.. Allen said the exclusion order
prevented him from entering Lower
California, where he had been ship
ping manganese to a plant in Ten
neSSee.
Further Details Ruled Out.
Mr.. Powers made repeated at
tempts, which were ruled out by the
court on Government objection, to
bring out further details of the al
legged Communist menace on the
West Coast which the witness said
he had been fighting.
1T was impossible for any one
who espoused the Communist
cause to rent hall in Los Angeles, "
Mr.. Allen was allowed to say.
Referring to the charge in the
indictment against the rs defend
ants, Mr.. Powers asked If Mr.. Allen,
during his membership in the Le-
gion Of the Silver Shirts, ever heard
anything said at meetings advocat-
ing mutiny or insubordination in
the armed forces or overthrow of
the Government.
The witness said he never had.
Mr.. Allen said the Dickstein Com
mittee of the House went to work
on the Silver Shirts" and they
folded up.
He testified that Silver Shirt
meetings often were disturbed BY
Jewish Communists" who tried to
stir up rioting.

Mr.. Allen had testified under

Powers, attorney for william Dudley

dues.
It has not been disclosed what ac-
ton the company will take on the
expected directive, although 1t has
been indicated an appeal to the
national WLB may be taken from
the regional order. The decision
Of the agency followed an appeal
by the union.
A new contract between the union

Kern has 104 stage and screen pro.
ductions full of his music. Only
once has he written what is gen.

other than a show. That was "Tht
Last Time I Saw Paris" which he
wrote with Oscar Hammerstein II
with whom he has collaborated fre.

Fifteen of his tunes have passed
the 100000 mark in record sales
Stars have hung on his coat tails
begging him to write songs for theil
Broadway efforts. His greatest am.

Kern's first association with music
came through his mother, who
taught him piano. His debut as 9
writer of show music came while hi
was at Newark IN. j. High School
where he played organ and directed
student musical shows.
In his formative years he wrote
songs for Weber & Fields and was
an accompanist for Marie Dressler
His first musical comedy score was
presented in 1910, when "Mr. Wiz

era, asked in his review: who is
