BISHOP REFUSES TOCHANGE STAND | IN SENATE PROBE Cannon Surprises Lobby Com- mittee by Again Offering Testimony Washington, June 11.—(7)—Walk- ing in on the senate lobby committee as abruptly as he walked out on it last week, Bishop James Cannon Jr. answered questions today on activities of the Southern Methodist church but persisted in his refusal to undergo examination on his 1928 Anti-Smith campaigning. ‘The churchman surprised the com- mittee meeting, which had been called to determine what to do about his defiance. The investigators decided to give him a chance to testify and to consider their future course only after learning his attitude. Senator Walsh, Democrat, Montana, brought up the matter of anti-Smith funds obtained by Cannon from E. C. Jameson, New York capitalist, but ‘the witness referred again to his ob- Jections to answering questions on his political work, “Do you care to say anything about the $48,000 that was not reported?” asked Walsh. Senator Robinson, Republican, In- diana, sided with Cannon—saying he wondered “what that has to do with the lobbying investigation.” Reads Prepared Statement Bishop Cannon read a prepared statement asserting he intended “no contempt of the senate” in withdraw- ing from the committee hearing last ‘week. “I intended no discourtesy,” he said. "I certainly thought I had the right. “I am here again today as a vol- untary witness concerning the activi- ties of the board of the M. E. Church, South.” However, as to questions on his own political activities, the bishop asked the committee to consider his objections to answering. Cannon told Senator Borah he did not consider himself within the juris- diction of the committee after ap- pearing as a voluntary witness and being sworn. Answering a question by Senator Blaine, the churchman said he had Borah’s word for it “that as a volun- tary witness I am subject to the jur- isdiction of the committee.” The bishop maintained a respectful manner toward the examiners. The questioning veered again to the 1928 activities of the witness, Senator Caraway saying E. C. Jameson had testified he gave Cannon $65,300 for the anti-Smith campaign and that the board of temperance of the Meth- ‘odist Episcopal Church, South, had given $5,000 and that the only report made showed receipt of $17,000 from Jameson. Refuses Explanation “Do you have any explanation to make?” asked Caraway. “The question refers to my political ‘activity,’ asserted Cannon, “except the question about the $5,000 from the ‘Methodist board.” “Well, let's hear about that,” said ‘Caraway. “Mr. Pickett of the Methodist board stated the exact facts,” continued Cannon. “The board gave me $5,000 for circulation of my speech ‘Prohibi- tion Repeal Unthinkable.’ That was not pélitical activity. It was prohibi- * ‘tion work.” “Were you responsible for circula- tion of the speech as a political docu- ment during the campaign?” asked ‘Caraway. Cannon protested this question bor- dered again on his own political activ- ity. He denied the document was circulated as a political matter. “Was the money given you by Jameson to be used by the Methodist board?” Caraway asked. “No.” Cannon said the money Jameson contributed was used for political urposes. if “Was there any relation between your political activities and your ac- tivities as chairman of the temper- ance board?” Cannon testified his activities had been as an individual and not as an official of the Methodist church.

In most instances, the Ford has been chosen only after ex- haustive tests of every factor that con- tributes to good performance—speed, power, safety, comfort, low cost of operation and up-keep, reliability and long life. Promitient among the companies using the Ford are the Associated Com- panies of the Bell System, Armour and Company, The Borden Company, Con- tinental Bakivg Corporation, Firestone Tire and Rubber Company, General Electric Company, Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company, Kellogg Company, Knickerbocker Ice Company, Morton Salt Company, Pillsbury Flour Mills Company, The Procter & Gamble Company, and Swift & Company. Each of these companies uses a large number of Ford cars and trucks. The Associated Companies of the Bell Syetem use more than eight thousand. Modern business moves at a fast pace and it needs the Ford. Daily, in countless ways and places, it helps to speed the production and delivery of the world’s goods and extend the useful service of men and companies, Constant, steady operation over many thousands of miles emphasizes the ad- vantages of the sound design of the Ford car, its high quality of materials, and accuracy in manufacturing. Beneath its graceful lines and beautiful colors there is a high degree of mechanical excellence. An example of the value built into the Ford is the use of more than twenty ball and roller bearings. They are hidden within the car and you may The New Ford Truck Examine it in Detail In both chassis and bodies, you will see important new features that increase the strength, reliability, economy and value of all Ford truck types never see them. Yet they play an im- portant part in satisfactory, economical performance. Their function is similar to the jewels of a fine watch. Throughout the Ford chassis, a ball or roller bearing is used at every place where it is needed to reduce friction and wear and give smooth, reliable mechanical operation. At many points, as on the transmis- sion counter-shaft, clutch release, fam and pump shaft, and front drive shaft, these ball and roller bearings are used where less costly types of bearings might be considered adequate. Additional instances of the high qual- ity built into the Ford are the extensive use of steel forgings, fully enclosed four-wheel brakes, Rustless Steel, four Houdaille double-acting hydraulic shock absorbers, aluminum pistons, chrome silicon alloy valves, torque-tube drive, three-quarter floating rear axle, and the Triplex shatter-proof glass windshield. : The Ford policy has always heen to use the best possible material for each part and then, through large produc- tion, give it to the public at low cost.
