Laber Chief Says federation
Employed Counsel te Press
Impeachment Case
RALSTON DEMANDS 'RIGHTS'
r.v Annotated Press
Washington, Dec. 13. Samuel (lorn (lern
per.", president of the American Fed Fed
erullen of Laber, frankly told the
Heme Judiciary Committee today that
the. Executive Commlttee of the fed
eration hud authorized the employment
of counsel te nsslst Representative Kel
ler, Minnesota, in presecuting1 Impeach
ment proceedings ngeinst Attorney Gen
eral Daughcrty.
Netice was served en the committee
by Jacksen II. Italsten, counsel for
Representative Keller, that he would
insist en his "rights" before the com
mittee even if he had te carry his' fight
te the IIouue.
Mr. Balaton's announcement came
lifter it had been decided te keep out of
the record certain newspaper articles
relating te W. J. Hums, chief of the
Uurcau of Investigation of the Depart
ment of Justice, until members of the
committee could have opportunity te
examine them.
Representative Yates, Illinois, asked
if that was te be considered as a threat
te the committee. When Mr. Ralston
entered n diHclalmcr Mr. Yates de
clared he considered It was a threat
te the committee. When Mr. Ralston
entered a disclaimer Mr. Yates declared
he considered it was u threat. Rcpre--sentatlvu
Graham, Pennsylvania, as
serted that if n threat wbb intended he
for ene would refuse te hear Mr.
Ralston further.
The Incident was closed nnd the hear
ing proceeded with a suggestion by Rep
resentative Fester, Ohie, that the
committee get along with its work.
The newspaper articles in dispute
were frcnt te President Harding last
October by A. P. Macauly, an Ameri
can citizen living nt Terente, Canadn,
along with n letter protesting against
the eppeintment of Mr. Burns by Mr.
Daughcrty. The letter was referred te
tlie Attorney General, who replied te
Mr. Macauly that he had hnd before
him the information sent the President
before Mr. Kurn.s was appointed, that
he had known Mr. Burns for many,
many years nnd was "quite mire he will
render me nnd the Administration
faithful nnd efficient service."

Inspectors Admit
Geed in Changes
CentlntiMl from Pace One
prison guards have been scrutinized by
the jurors.
Jurers On Secret Trip
This morning the jurors left City
Hall, get into automobiles nnd were
driven north en Bread street. It Is
believed that they may then have been
en their way te Holmesburg.
Assistant District Attorney Maurcr,
nnmed by District Attorney Rotan te
nsslst in the prison investigation, has
the names and addresses of several
former inmates wlie will be summoned
befere the Grand Jury.
The "clean-up" nt the Philadelphia
County Prison ordered bv Dr. Baldy
is te be extended te c.vcry county jail
In Pennsylvania. ,
Raldy's Action Praised
Albert II. Votaw, cecretary of the
Pennsylvania Prison Society, ucclaiined
Dr. Bnldy's order as one of the grentest
forward htcps in the century-old history
of penal reform movements. Fer some
time Mr. Votaw has been in constant
communication with Dr. Baldy and
ether State officials in an effort te get
modern methods introduced into nil the
county prisons of the State.
In the opinion of Mr. Votaw, the
most important feature of the order iw
that calling en the prison inspectors
te provide work for the prisoners
wherever possible. He stated yesterday
that cmple.wnent has been found te be
the greut solvent of nearly all prison
ills.
"The Pennsylvania Society wus in
favor of solitary confinement 130 vents
age," said Mr. Votaw, "but since' then
it lias learned that there is a better
method of handling prisoners. We de
net object new te congregate labor.
We knew that prisoners must be given
employment and cxerclbe.
"Dr. llnldy knows whnt he wants,
nnd the society will de nil in its power
te support him in his efforts te get it.
The order te the inspectors nt Helmes -burg
Is a step in the right direction.
It will go a long way toward solution
of the evils that all authorities have
recognized."
Hopes for Improvement
Mrs. Harrison S. Merris, one of the,
most nctive of prison reform worked
in Philadelphia, expressed the hope that
the order issued by Dr. Baldy would
be npniled te every jail In the Stntc.
"If that order is corned out it will
represent a remarkable victory for the
Kvenine Puome Li:nel:n," said Mrs.
Merris yesterday. "Tliose of us who
hnve been active in this work for
ears are inclined te be pessimistic. We
enn recall previous campaigns In which
disgraceful conditions were exposed, but
nothing ever whs done.
"The dark cells, the solitary Idleness,
represent the worst feature of the pun
ishment nt Helmcsburg. It has been
proved that such treatment weakens
the minds of prisoners, and surely no
one can justify such results. Heretofore
there has been no way te step such
treatment, because the men in charge
have Insisted that no change in their
methods W11H nwOHl!irv f Llnninl..
hepe tlint the order by Dr. Baldy will
be carried out te the last detail, and
that it will he applied te every prUen
in the State."

V. S. -British Agreement Rumored
Fer some time rumors hnve been
going around here of a common policy
te be egrecd upon between this country
and Great Britain, the two lending na
tions during the war, with reference te
the borrowings of France, Itnly and
the ether Continental allies from both
of them.
Great Britain, It is conceded,
has arranged te pay her debt te the
United States. Her commission whicii
will negotiate terms will start for here
en December 27. but this is tee Inte
for the nrrangeraent of any common
policy en ether debts which. might have
any bearing en the cenferene of the
allied premiers, which will meet en
January 2.
Presumably some efforts will be made
te reach an understanding en this ques
tion of European borrowings, exclusive
of Great Britain's debt te this coun
try, before the reparations crisis comes
te a head once mere at the beginning
of the new year.
One thing seems certain. The
Administration Is faced with the neces
sity of making some mere practical con
tribution te the settlement of the
European controversy this time than
It hns ever yet done.
Its nttttudc was defined in n note
of Mr. Hughes, accepting the invita
tion te send a representative te the
Allied Supreme Council in May, 1021.
Mc Hughes wrote :
"The Government of the United
States, while maintaining the tradi
tional policy of abstention from par
ticipation in matters of distinctly
European concern, Is deeply Interested
in the proper economic adjustments an I
in the just settlcment of raattcts of
world-wide importance, which are
under discussion nt these conferences,
nnd desires helpfully te co-epernte In
the deliberations upon these questions."

As te submarines, ihe I'nlted StutO'.
proposed limitations of aggregate ton

Stntes and Great Britain and 51,000

The effort te limit submarine ten-
nage was met by the British dolegntlen
with a proposal te prohibit submarine
construction entirely, nnd that evoked
vigorous iirnete.st from the Trench.
The ttempt was abandoned finally ns
hopeless.

Bruneri Defendants
Will Deny Plots
Centlnned from Pace One
of sleep away when Powell was al
lowed te handle the murder gun ; nnd
showed hew be had broken nnd leaded
it. When he had given it back te Mr.
Kcewn the latter tried te take it
apart, te show hew it had been put in
the linek of Melir's "flivver" seddun,
but failed. Welter Wills, foreman of
the jury, and a veteran of many hunt
ing beasens, took the gun from him nnd
showed him hew te de it. Then every
body settled down for another nap.
Powell is Deliberate
Mr. Keown resumed Ills cress-examination
by asking: "Can jeu tell me
today why you killed Jehn Bruncn';"
"On account of Harry Mehr," Powell
answered deliberately.
"When and why did von nsk Mm
authorities te let you go en the stand
and testify?" "I nbked te go en te
defend myself; I don't knew when 1
asked."
At this point Mr. Kcewn tiled in
confuse the witness by refcrrhig te his
ii-Miiiuuii.v in ycsiiviiny mat no induce
ment hud been offered te him for his
testimony.
Have you net en ether occasions
said tthnt the authorities had made
premises te you that if veu testifip,!
according te the statement you made
you would get your liberty?" asked
Mr. Keown.
The State objected but was over
ruled. Powell uuswered "Ne" with
emphasis.
"Have you net sold you would he out
et jail utter Uliristiuits?" "Ne."
"Have ou net said you would be out
of jail after Mehr and Mrs. Bruncn had
been tried and that you -would cat
Christmas dinner with your wife?"
Au objection by the Stnte te this
line of questioning was sustained.
"Have jeu net been told by officers
of the State ns te the punishment j-eu
would get if you testified in accordance
with the statement jeu made te De
tective Parker?"
An objection wns sustained.
Doesn't Knew His Fate
The question was them amended as
fellows :
"Has Detective Parker. Prosecutor
Ivelsey or Assistant Prosecutor Pea
cock ever told you what punishment
would be given jeu if you testified ac
cording te your statement te Parker''"
Powell answered "Ne."
Mr. Kcewn hen asked questions
about Powell a connection with Bru
nen's circus, apparently for the pur
pose of Indicating that the witness had
quarreled with Bruncn. Powell de
nied that this was se.
"Did Ham Mehr tell vnn ii.-. ti.
Urunen had been complaining about
your drinking and didn't he say that
if you did net btep drinking and make
n full accounting you could net stay
with the show?"
"Mr. Mehr told me lets of thln-s
uuuui mini iiiuiiuu uau sam, but
Bruncn himself never said any of these
things te me."
At this point Prosecutor Kclsev nres
te object, hut Detective Parker U go
him and bald: "Let him go en let him
go en."
Justice Knlisch ruled, however, that
he line of questioning had been fol
lowed far enough.
The attorney for the defense then
tried te make Powell tell wh" lie hid
wired te the Bruncn home at Rivers de

Says Penrose Sought
Meney Frem Grundy
Continued from Pnae One
was called te the stand. He were n
snugly fitting tweed suit of a light
mixture.
"Did you knew Senater Penrose?"
asked Mr. Gilfillan.
"Yes, I had political relations with
him since 1830," replied Mr. Baker.
"What de you knew of tills claim?"
"It was December 10. 1021, that I
had a conference with Senater Pn Pn
rese and he told me he owed 'Judge'
Cunningham between $35,000 and
$40,000."
"Did you call en the Senater te dis
cuss this matter?"
"I hnd talked te the Senater nnd
told him I was going te quit politics
in rennsylvanln because I could net
live en whnt I wns gcttlne."
Mr. Jenes asked the witness te give
tietniis et the discussion in which tlie
Cunninghnm claim was mentioned.
"This discussion about the claim did
net come outef the clear sky, did It
Mr. Baker?" asked Mr. Jenes.
Wanted Grundy te Collect Meney
The State chairman said he would
rather net sny anything about the '.dis
cussion "but I suppose I will hove te."
Continuing, he said :
"The Senater asked me te see Mr.
Grundy becnuse his relations with Mr.
Grundy were rather strained at the
time, lie wanted me te see if Mr.
Grundy would collect the money te
pay the claim.
"I never had nn opportunity of see
ing Mr. Grundy befere the Senater died
and I did net get the money from
him."
Here Mr. Gilfillan nddresscd the
court, remarking he could net call Mr.
Cunningham as a witness because of
the Senater's death.
"But I would like It noted en the
record," he went en, "thut Mr. Cun
ningham is here te tell of the date
and the amounts In which the menev
was raied."
Mr. Gilfillan paused, turned toward
the spectators and then looked at the
courtrem clock.
Important Witness Absent
"I expected an important person
here from New Yerk." lie explained te
Judge Gummey. "He knows all about
this affair. He was n member of the
notional committee. Hn wnc i, i...
fore, your Hener. I had trouble get
ting him, but he wns here en Decern -
her 4, when I was tied up en the
Chandler case and we couldn't ee en
1 1I011 t knew whether his absence new
means he wants te. get away from the
case or whether he bes been caught by
pressure of businebs."
Mr. Jenes asked who the witness is
and was told "a business man of New
lerk."
"These are what I call tender
financial arrangements, with net any
persons present," continued Mr. Gil
iilliin. Mr. Jenes said he was willing te
have a continuance if the New Yerk
nuui mum in- preuueeu inter. Jude
Gummey .-aid if the witness were
hrmighf in he would be glad te hear
his testimony.
, 'i1 "1,,l1Ir;?n1 ct ulm 0' right,
Judge, said Gilfillan.
"Very well, then, we will adjourn
te such tunc as you can arrange te
get the witness." said .Tudge Gumey.
Before tlie adjournment wns ordered,
however, Gilfillan called Mr. Tavler te
the stand. He testified he had been
Senater Penrose's secretory since 1014
"Did you have any record of pev-'
ments made by the Senater In thn
hitter part of his life?"
"He didn't keep books," replied Mr
Tayler.
"De nu have any record of a pay
ment miiile bj the Senater te Mr. Cun
ningham?" "I hinen't any record of the Senater
hating paid Mr. Cunninghnm."
On cress. examination, Mr. Tayler
was nsked if he has talked te Penrese
regurnng tne innuer. Mr. Gilfillan
objected but wns overruled,
"Clean Sheet," Senater Said
"I don't remember the date," said
Tayler. "The Senater's liablt was te
take up with me en Sunday mornings
matters that had accumulated during
the week. He did this before going out
drhlng. One .Suiulnj, about the middle
01 .-Nevenuier, iiui, the Senater said
Tin ler, I don't Knew what mil'
happen, but no matter whnt may hap
pen, we are nil cleaned up.'
"The Senater." resumed Mr. Tnv
lnr, "then turned ever a number of
papers, nene of them representing
claims except whnt I called the Cun-nlngliBin-Griindy
clnim. The Senater
said : 'I urn a happy man ; we have 11
clean Bheet and cun stnrt out new,'
"I said te him : 'Senater, whnt about
the Cunninghnm clnim?'
" 'That's nil right,' the Senater re
piled," said Mr. Tayler. He ndded
that Penrose hnd stated the Cunning
ham claim hed been taken care of and
thut he had a clean sheet.
The bearing then wns continued te
n date te be agreed upon later b
i-eiiusel. Later Mr. Cunningham snld-
"1 had an appointment with Senater"
Peniese for thn last week in Decern,
her, 1021. or the first week In Jnnu
ary of this yenr te talk ever payment
of the claim. The Senater died en
the hiht day of the jenr. Had he lived
there would have been no question
about! my getting the money. tmJ
affair Is just part et the fortunes of
political life."
