LOS ANGELES, July 1, —Myrtle
St. Pierre fenced sharply with law
yers for David Hutton as she de
scribed tender kissing scenes on the
divan in her home in her $200,000
breach-of-promise suit against the
portly husband of evangelist Aimee
Semple McPherson Hutton. Attor
ney Mark Jones demanded of the
attractive, twice-married nurse
“did you kiss him?” Calling for
smelling salts, the nurse inhaled |
deeply and retorted “that is a
strange question, Mr. Jones. When
one person kisses another, naturally
the person who is kissed is also
kissing the other- That is a kiss, Mr.
Jones.” Jones then attempted to j
obtain from Miss St. Pierre direct
admission that she had been
“unduly friendly” with a number
of men before she met Hutton.
“It's a trick question,” protested
one of Miss St. Pierre’s attorney’s
“I assure you there is no trick to it
at all.” replied Jones. “ I wrant to
know what kind of a woman she
is.”
The charges that Myrtle St. Pierre
had planned to “frame” Aimee
Semple McPherson Hutton, spec
tacular evangelist, were hurled in
superior Judge Lester W. Roth’s
court. The charges were made by
Mark F. Jones, chief counsel for
David “Baby Boy” Hutton, Aimee’s
husband and defendant in the
$200,000 breach-of-promise suit
brought by Miss St. Pierre, attrac
tive young nurse. “Didn’t you sug
gest to Dr. Paul Marshall of the
Marshall Health Institute that you
should get Aimee into a compromis
ing position and then shake her
down for some dough?” asked
Jones. “I never made such a state
ment,” denied Miss St. Pierre ex
citedly. “If any one is being fram
ed. it is I.”
The jaw of “Baby Boy” Hutton
sagged when he heard a witness
testify in court that he admitted
he was marrying Aimee S e m pi e
McPherson, evangelist and healer,
for her money.
The evidence which created a
courtroom furor, was given by
pretty Betty Odielle, former owner
of a Long Beach pajama shop, in
the $200,000 breach of promise suit
against the husband of the noted
pastor of Angelus Temple- Miss
Odeille testified she had known the
reputed “Baby Boy” for 12 years.

tle. Loughran kept Hamas away
from him with a long left arm, and

WORLD ECONOMIC ILLS
HOLLYWOOD. June 30, — Chas.
Chaplin, commedian artist of the
screen, turned economist with an
international bimetalism scheme
which he claimed will settle war
debts, rivive American-foreign trade
and hasten the recovery of world
commerce. Back at his studio after
a year’s tour of the world, Chaplin
said he was convinced that the na
tions must recognize some other
currency besides gold before a re
turn to normal conditions can be j
expected. All nations are overbur- 1
dened with taxation and all suffer
over lack of money, the gray haired
comedian gravely explained.
Commerce had developed thru
the expansion of credit while the
expansion of currency has been re
1 stricted to gold- Gold production
is too small to keep up with de
velopment of world resources, yet
gold is the basis of all value. What
gives it value, an international re
cognition of its purchasing power.
Therefore, by international agree
ment any other metal could be giv
en the same basic value as gold.
The allied committee on war rep
arations agreed they will receive
about thirty five billion dollars;
from Germany, but Germany says [
she cannot pay.
Very well, then let the allies make
capital of this part of the agree
ment, and issue the amount that
Germany owes them in an inter -
! national currency and pay them
selves, each nation to receive her
previously agreed share.

GOLDEN CITE OUTERS
ARE IMPRESSED WITH
THEIR VOW ALASKA
Sewardites have always been ex
tra fond of Californians because so
many fine residents of that magni
ficent State have visited the North
land. Now comes two beautiful San
Francisco girls with the message
Californians, particularly San
Franciscans, that the feeling is
mutual; that they too, like Seward
folk.
The young ladies are Miss Helene
Bengue and Miss Emily Silva, both
from the wonderful Golden Gate
city, and both round-trippers on
the SS Aleutian.
Frank Cotter, famous Seward res
ident who some years ago left for
Seattle seeking fame and fortune,
equipped the girls with introduc
tions to many of Seward’s promi
nent residents and today, they are
the guest of these, and are being
driven to the numerous scenic at
tractions along the Lake Kenai
Highway.
The voyage to Alaska has been
| an amazingly interesting one, the
young ladies remarked, but, some
how, Seward has been most impres
sive to them; probably because of
the beautiful harbor and gorgeous
panorama of natural scenics.
Rev. Earl E. Reisner, of the Sew
ard Community Church, returned
today from the States where he at
tended the annual church confer
ence.
