FENNING REFUSES TOAPPEAR AGAINAT VETERANS' HEARING Declares Statement Already Made Contains All Infor- mation He Can Give. COMMITTEE WIL[ SEEK TO FORCE APPEARANCE Resolution to Be Offered in House Asking Right to Issue Subpoena. Explaining that his “very full and complete statement already made to your committee contains all the in- formation pertiment to the inquiry which I am able to give,” Commis- | sioner Frederick A. Fenning today refused to appear before the House veterans' commitee for further cross- examination, The Commissioner's dccision, set forth in a letter to Chairman John- | on, Republican, South Dakota, pre- cipitated a row among the Democratic members and resulted in instructions being issued by the committee to Rep- resentative Bulwinkle, Democrat, North Carolina, to prepare a resolu- tion asking the House to grant the committee authority to subpoena Mr. Fenning. The resolution will be re- ferred to the rules committee. The lett& to Chairman Johnson fol- lows: “My Dear Congressman Johnson: J 1926, 1 ad- dressed a letter to you suggesting that the inquiry now being conducted by your committee with respect to a pending bill might be facilitated by my appearance before your commit- tee, and at your invitation I appeared all day Wednesday and Thursday of last week.

When the gveterans’ ommittes which has beer! in recess since Thu day afternoon, at which time Mr. Fenning's examination had not been completed, met at 10 o'clock . this morning, Chairman Johnson read the letter. Mr. Bulwinkle arose and de- clared heatedly “1 move that this committe instruct its chairman to re- quire Mr. Fenning to come before the committee. This letter is absolutely false and he knows it, because in his first letter to the committee he made no mention about any bill." Chairman Johnson suggested an ex- ecutive session to consider procedure, but Mr. Bulwinkle continued: “He knows why he doesn’t want to ap- pear. We hadn't gone into the ques- tion about the Norris case to get in- t formation from him as to why he went to the Veterans' Bureau at night for informatioi when he should have had it in hfs files. In the original re- quest of April 22 he wrote: ‘I observe in the press that frequent questions are asked pertaining to estates in which 1 am acting as committee, which questions cannot readily be answered hy the persons to whom they are propounded. This leads me to suggest that undoubtedly the in- qufry now being conducted will be ‘acilitated if I am called before your commitee at a very early date.” “I am reading this,” continued Mr. Bulwinkle, “to show the falsehood in the letter.

In the list is the name of Fred C. Hall, one of Mr. Fenning's wards, and one of the chief cases that has been under fire in the House.” Mr. Milligan requested that the Commissioner be recalled, adding that “the witness refused to answer th. questions propounded to him and now he refuses to _come.” “Yes,” said Mr. Rankin, “he found he could not run over this side of the table, so he writes a letter saying he has given all the information neces- sary, as if its for him to say what is pertinent to this inquiry Mr. Bulwinkle got the floor and ob- (Continued on Page 3, Column 2.) =l MAY 3, which he based h ~ 1926—FORTY-TWO PAGES : f%YSgY AND, ' \%‘z;fxo»ussiz * Now GET 7 Thz only evening paper in Washington with the Associated Press service. news Saturday's Circulation, 98,822 Sunday’s Circulation, 109,541 TWO CENTS.

When they began ferrying the big planes early Saturday morning not a square yard of open water was visible between us and the ledge of ice where we had to put the planes ashore.

Judge English answered all five of the articles of impeachment brought against him by the House. It had been expected that he would ask for and obtain from the Senate time in which to file his answer, but he came to Washington prepared to file his answer immediately. When the man- agers of the impeachment on the part of the House, who in reality are the prosecuting attorneys, have filed their replication, it will be the duty of the Senate then to fix a date for the trial of Judge English. i Judge English is the tenth high of- | ficlal of the Government ever to be tried by the Senate, and the first since 1913, when Robert W.
