The bill now goes to the senate where the publicity proposal was originated you meant?" bone shot at him. "That is a Hearst ectltorlnl," Shearer countered. "But you published It without giv ing him any credit," Bone Insisted. "Aren't you the author of this docu ment?" Shesrer said he had not called the President a "knave or a fool" or In ferred he was another Benedict Arn old. "Are you so cowardly that you hide behind the' cloak of Hearst's news papers?" Bone shot at him. Advances on Accuser. "I don't like that word cowardly," Shearer declared. His advance to ward the desk was topped by Nye's order, but only after he flung over his shoulder: "Then stop hurling that cowardly stuff." Bone said he would withdraw the charge" and let it be known that you are a brnve man.' Shesrer claimed William Randolph . Hearst, the publisher, had contrlbu uted from time to time to hs activi ties in favor of a big navy. He added Hearst financed the suit to be riled in an effort to prevent sinking of the unfinished battleship Washington In 1024. "Did Mr. Hearst contribute to your trips abroad In 1926 and 1927?" Sena tor Clark fD Mo.) asked, referring to his trips to arms conferences In Oeneva. "No." .Shearer replied, "ht didn't come aboard until 1029." Shipbuilders Finn need Trip. He aald shipbuilders had financed his trips, mentioning various sums of expense money given hm ranging from 10.000 downward. "I was to be paid a aalary of 2S, 000 a year." he declared. He flatd he did not go to Oeneva "openly" sa a representative of ahip buildera. but permitted It to be "understood" he was flnnnced by "various patriotic organizations." Shearer, in a loud nd aggressive manner, told the committee he had never performed an act In connection with his propaganda that did not have "the approval of the navy." Then he asserted that because he had "exposed" the legal advlwr to Frank B. Kellogg, secretary of state In 1927, for "trickery against the best Interests of hla own country,' he was made to "walk tht plask" by the shipyard. The latter were Induced to d lamias him. he said, under threat that a suit for 115 000.000 agi'nst Charles M. Schwab, in connection with war time steel contracts, would be pressed. Persecution Claimed. "I hate to say It, becsuM It la a boob word," he declared, "but they not only saw that I didn't get work after that, but they persecuted me." " Who persecu ted you ? ' ' Clark asked. "I wouldn't, say the shipbuilders were helping me." He then declared the persecution had been extended to hla daughter. a writer, whose stories, which he told the committee were once popular in many magazine, were suddenly no longer purchased. Her marfcet was stopped, he aald. when he filed a suit against the "big three" shipbuilding companies- In 1929, for his services as a naval prop agandist. "The minute the ult waa filed." he added, "she did not sell another Item. They hit me the only way they could through my child" He eald hi daughter had died ' five month ago. Accuse Bar ii rli. He uaed the term "antl-Ainertcsn" against Bernard Baruch, friend of president?; the Carnagie Peace Foun dation. Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia university, and others including George W Wicker sham, former attorney-general.
