OKLAHOMA CITY, March 13 Matching wits with his prosecutors. Henry S. Johnston, suspended Governor l Exiled? | of Oklahoma, underwent a day of cross- | examination here yesterday in his trial before the Senate Court of Impeach- ment. A multitude of State matters were touched on in the questions of John Head, chairman of the State House of Representatives board of managers, which is seeking the removal of John- | ston on charges of impeachment voted by the House. Bares Break Reasons. Tn the course of his examination. Johnston declared he broke with two of his strongest supporters in the cam- paign of 1926, after he was elected governor, because they expected to wield too much influence in his administra- tion. He said hé parted friendship with Ed M. Semans of Oklahoma City be- cause he suspected Semans of wielding a monopoly in the writing of bonds for State projects Johnston “Iroze up” on Hubert Bolen the other supporter, he said, when & New York bank offered to make Bolen its Oklahoma representative in return for the transference of the Oklahoma fiscal agency to that bank The suspended governor said he was not aware that James Armstrong, whom he later made a confidant, represented 2 number of companies doing business with the State as legal representative. Armstrong is an uncle of Mrs. O. Hammonds, until recently Johnston's confidential secretary. The prosecution has centered its attack on the part played by Mrs, Hammonds in various State affairs, Senate Works Fast on Pay. « Operations of both the Senate court Bnd the investigating committee of the House of Representatives were impeded temporarily today by a decision of the State Supreme Court which held they were without authority to employ addi- tional help unless the help was provided for specifically in appropriations. House investigating activities were stopped and the Senate hastily passed a bill legaliz- ing the employment of its court help. The general investigating comynittee abandoned an afternoon session of its inquiry into the affairs of the State Board of Agriculture and a subcommit- tee dropped its session of investigation into the School Land Commission.
