Tatar | A Offers Aid to B Purge Bedford

‘Politician’ Visits - Pastors ‘and Bettors Times Stale Service BEDFORD, Oct. 3.—Both church and betting circles were mystified! today by a “political representative” ‘who offered his services to both sides in the anti-gambling! campaign here, i The self-styled politician visited several persons including two ministers, the Rev. George Morris and the Rev. E. D. Riggs, attempting to raise $500 to carry on .an antigambling campaign. The two ministers said they refused to have a part of the plan. | It was thought that the “politi-| cian” later visited some of the] gamblers here and offered his serve] ices in helping keep the establish ments open, As a result, several mimeographed, letters entitled “An Open Letter to the Citizens of Bedford and Lawrence County” were mailed to per-| sons known to be against gambling, | Called “Political Phoney” The letters were signed “James T. C. Ford,” Aho identified himself as a representative of the “na-| tional Republican party.” The letter referred to the Rev. Mr. Morris

Ford is said to have told] local persons “I was sent in by the party's national headquarters.” Party leaders said Ford's game is to obtain testimonial letters from | high-placed Republican leaders and then use them to obtain money for his activities. It was reported Ford has been operating in Indianapolis and Muncie before coming here. The letter in support of gambling establishments read:
