TURNER LIKELY TO SET OIL A RED CROSS SEAL SALE TREMENDOUS SUCCESS .X- v:: \ I SOWS' ATTEND HOTEL Committee Investigating ‘Graft’ Charges Not Expected to Con- ! sider Impeachment Action. Reports in political circles are that tie conclusion of the sensational *raft investigation of City Klectri- ian 1 timer will be a severe repr - mand for Turner by the investigating committee. Though Attorney Aldine Chambers. representing the Cotton States Electric Company, which brought the charges, has outlined to the committee that it has dear grounds to impeach Turner if it de- >ires to 1 take up the tight, the genera! belief among those who have kept up closely with the vidence is that the ommittee will not take so radical a view. Mayor Woodward has been a con stant attendant at the meetings, and even Tie "has no positive opinions about what should be done. The investigating committee, com posed of the Board of Electrical Con trol and the Council Electric Eights Committee, will meet Friday to make up its report. Turner Put on Grill. The most interesting feature of the dose of the investigation Thursday afternoon was the grilling of Electri cian Turner. Turner was relucta tt to : answer many Questions, frequent ly replying with sharp evasions. He presented a large number of Te mpts showing, he said, his campaign disbursements "These receipts don’t seem to cor respond with the dates on which yoo rec eived the payments from the Elek- tron Company," said-Chambers. "I can’t help that,” replied Turner. "Can you tell me a single man or corporation to whom you paid this money?” insisted Chambers. "The receipts show it." said Turner. Attorneys in Clash. The question was repeated several times "With no more direct response from Turner-. "Mr. Chairman, interposed Attor ney Carl Hutcheson, “he has an swered that question forty times.” "No. no, not that many.” said Chambers. "I think .the attorney must be confused by thinking of ‘For- tv Thieves.’” "Now, you need not get so per sonal.” replied Hutcheson, coloring. "You’re a young man ” sa:J > ’hambers. "Yes, and able to take care of m\- sdf.” answered Hutcheson. Chairman Haverty* said such re marks would not be permitted and the hearing was resumed.
