Simmons bolted the party in 1928 to support Hoover against Smith. Before entraining Monday night, Senator Roscoe Patterson 'Mo.) said the committee might stop in Asheville today for conferences with Bailey. The senators will then proceed to Nashville, Tcnn., to investigate the senatorial races in that state. Monday's testimony brought commendation from Chairman Nye. ‘ We wish to congratulate the witnesses for giving the committee the facts and not holding back anything, ’ he said. He indicated the committee was satisfied the Raskob fund report was a myth when he said: “Our experience has been such that we are not privileged to stay longer.” The senators were amused at the testimony of former Governor Cameron Morrison, Democratic national committeeman, who told of loaning several thousand dollars to Frank W. Hancock, congressional nominee. Hancock, he said, refused to let him tear up the notes. “I can lick any man who says it wasn’t a bona fide business proposition,” Morrison asserted belligerently.
