Morven by the writer from 4 trustworthy source which Fonds ao follows: Democrats were split about fitty-fifiy between Hoover and:Johnaon. Both sides claimed them, but’ Johnson through eu- perb tzation got Bway with , the jority of the Democratic vote, Mast ef the Hoover yote came from the women and that class of people who have not in the past paid so much direct at- tention to politics. Behind John- son were Milton M. Youn, for- merly Chairman of the Demo- cratic’ Committee of Los Ané ‘geles, Joseph H. Ball, Joseph Scott (an Irish leader hiteayo in the Democratic Party), J. C. Snyder, the last Democratic can- didate for. Lieutenant- Governor; all of the Hearst Democrats, and Senator Phelan's Democratic ‘Liévtenants in and around San Frénciato, the latter because of an agreement on the part of Johnson to sdpport Phelan's re- election for the Senate.

The court said that it was the gssumption of the law that a husband is the head of a family and directed the jury to bring in a verdict of acquittal. The case went to the jury this afternoon. Mrs. Walker testified as follows: Q. When did you first notice th Dorothy was ill? A. Ten days bias she died. Q. Whit was her condition dng those ten days? A. She had a cold, she was languid, I kept her home from school and calls Mr. Webber, a practitioner. Dorothy didn’t care for him, as there was not much under- standing between them. 1 then called Mrs. Larson of Camden by telephone. Dorothy wanted her, as she knew her. Mrs. Larson gave my little girl abseut treatment and by correspondence wih her. When I called Mrs. West, another practitioner, on Saturday Dorothy was up and about. "This was the day before she died, but she wanted to go ont and my husband* took her out. They came home in a taxicab and she was put to bed. I saw nothing the matter with Her except that she was tired, I slept with her that night. Next morning she seemed exhausted before, br fast, I left her a few minutes and my husband camé in while I was out and found her dead in bed. Even had ‘the medical authoritier of New Jersey compelled him to ob- tain a physician's skill in caring for his little daughter and taken her out uf the hands of the Christian Scienc: healers” who were treating” her, Andrew Walker, the girl's father, tes: tfied that he would still have let Christian Science “heal” her. At the beginning, of his testimony Walker stated that he had often at- tended “testimony” meetings ot the Christian Science Church afd had cues‘ and do you belleve they oc- curred? A. ‘Yes, T have heard of cure¥ of cohsumption, of liver and heast affections and fevers’ of many kinds, “1 eltevo thesé cures were made, Walker stated that both he and his wife had Been “cured” of colds, ex- tre headaches and nervousness. Por seven years, he said, all the ills of his children (there is only one left now) had beén cured by, Christian Selence “healer He told of one cure effected in the case of a daugh- ter of his wife's sister. She had cut her knee so severely that she could not bend it. “It was thought, at one time that]. it might be better to have some stitches taken in the cut, but the little girl, who, was only nine, sald that she thought spiritual aid would be’ tettér,” said Walker. So Christian Science treatment was given to hi and the next day she went out skat- ing, completely cured.” In cross-examination Walker testi- fied that he believed Christian Seience could cure cancer a: ° everything else, entirely without medical assistance. Q. How long before your little girl ied on, May 8, 1919, did you notice she was ill? A. About ten days. She became languid. Q. What did you do? A. I sent for Frederick Webber, a healer of Riv. ington, N. J‘, five days before she died. Q. Why did you chagge ‘to another healer? A, Because we wanted @ woman who had treated us before, Mrs. Larson of Camden.
