MILLER STANDS BY HIS STORY WASHINGTON, May 7. — Jas. R. Martin Miller, newspaper correspondent, who telegraphed Henry Ford that President Coolidge wanted to "deliver Muscle Shoals to him," told the senate agriculture committee today that he quoted Mr. Coolidge "faithfully and correctly." Miller said President Coolidge's so-called denial of the conversation was a "crass political dissimilation." The telegram, dated Oct. 12, 1923, was sent to Ford 25 minutes after a conference with President Coolidge at the White House, Miller said. "Did you correctly quote the president?" demanded Senator Norris, Republican of Nebraska, chairman. "Yes, I did." snapped Miller. "The telegram was a faithful and correct statement of my conversation." "The president's so-called denial was not a denial at all," Miller continued, heatedly. "He did not deny that I called at the White House. He did not deny that he bribed the subject of Ford and Muscle Shoals himself, and he cannot deny these things." Explaining that Ford was kept constantly informed of Muscle Shoals development, Miller charged that "he firm has a more active secret service than the Ford people."

WON'T GIVE REASON FOR TAKING POISON LOS ANGELES, May 7—Snatched from theaws of death MRS. MAY ROBERTS SPEAKS TONIGHT Tonight will be another interesting evening at the Nazarene tabernacle. Mrs. May T. Roberts, wife of Evangelist Roberts, will be the speaker. Many have been inquiring when this hour should arrive when they could hear "The woman preach." Her many experiences abroad, well as in America, which she often speaks upon, will be setting to her audience. She has traveled in the British Isle, South America, Isthmus of Panama, Canada, Mexico, and practically every state in the union, suffering great hardships, as well as enjoying the beauties of travel. Being reared in an old fashioned Methodist preacher's home, and left motherless at the delicate age of nine years, she was thrust upon a mercelless world to make a success of her life. Fortune crossed her pathway the day she became converted. Immediately she started out to reach the everlasting gospel of Jesus Christ, going from state to city, proaching in many of Sam Jones' tabernacles throughout the southland, and in one instance she climbed the courthouse steps of a beautiful Kentucky city and preached for two hours to 2,000 people who had come to the county fair. Mrs. Roberts is always greeted with a full house, and it is expected that she will be enthusiastically received by her many hearers tonight. Tonight, she will sing with her husband, accompanied with her guitar, a song she composed in the Ozark mountains, entitled "The Meeting in the Air." There will also be some special selections by the famous "Acoeleon Quartette". These girls are talented singers, and their sacred songs attract many to the tabernacle, corner of Claudina and North-sts. McCORD SINGS OF MUSICAL KNEEES "With beating heart and shaking knees, I got off the train at Los Angeles." This was the opening of a clever autobiographical poem by A. B. McCord, ex-President of the Kiwanis Club, at yesterday's lunchcon meeting in the Elk's club. McCord is said to have surpassed even his well known effort of "Nothing could be finer than to be an Anaheimer." The local club was one of three in Orange co., and five in California to have a perfect score in the international attendance contest, with 100 per cent of the members at 10 consecutive meetings. Heber Winder, district governor, came from Riverside and made a speech in which he volled his surprise at receiving 80 postals from local Kiwanians giving him "best returns of the day", last week when his birthday fell. He said he hadn't been so happy since his father gave him a brass watch. Winder, outlining Kiwanis ideals, said that the club fostered every worthy cause for upbuilding of the community. Contrary to talk that came out occasionally, it was free of commercialism. Somebody once put on a sub-division which was advertised as being sold only by Kiwanians, but that was an exception.

Anaheim Choral Society In Big Success Last Evening Again the Anaheim Choral society scored a success with the second public concert held last evening in the White Temple. With an organization of 43 members, the society is rapidly reaching the very front ranks in ability and appeal.

Schwentker and Dr. Joseph Coleman," Carry Me Back to Ole' Virginia." Dr. Coleman first drew the praise of the audience in his photos from "Cycle of Life" and Believe Me if All Those Endearing Young Charms." His clear tenor voice is entirely suitable to the numbers. His costuming attracted much flattering comment, as the ruffles and frills of the 1860 cycle were most becoming. The finale, solo by Mrs. Walter Ross and the Choral club, "Down Here the Cotton Blossoms Grow." In the Evening by the Moonlight," and "Dixie," with accompaniment of the organ, Mrs. Ruth Seltz; and two pianos, Mrs. J. O. Schwentker and Miss Marion Wallace, gave most effective ending to the whole excellent rendition. Mrs. Ross was a becoming gown of the Civil War period, in pink and blue, with soft creamy lace fusco, and more flowers in her dark hair. Mrs. J. O. Schwentker, for whom she fashioned of the long ago was particularly pretty, carried a basket of old-fashioned flowers. The stage settings were beautiful. Flanked on either side with eucalyptus trees, and the luxurious furniture of an old time living room, the costuming and lighting exceptionally appropriate, the final numbers were considered of the best yet seen in Anaheim. The two Baldwin grand pianos, over which Mrs. Schwentker and Miss Wallace provided, gave the superlative quality in accompaniment. Every number on the program, noted as "songs of yesterday and yesterdayear," struck a pleasurable note with the audience, and were comparison between the cantata, "Ruth the Moabitess," and last night's program possible, favor might lie with the latter.

With 174 out of 976 precincts the city yet to be heard from, 53 votes were still needed to take up the two-thirds majority, necessary for the passing of the issue.
