Rumors and affidavits swirl over 1916 U S politics in Seattle
Peace rumors abound as German-Americans demand stringent qualifications for the next U S president. John Clancy and Monte White swear they did not hire voters for Macdonald in Vancouver, with White claiming threats to testify. An affidavit by Clancy and by White details denials and alleged pressures in 1916 Seattle and Victoria proceedings.
Testimony sought on Macdonald election influence at Victoria
An affidavit from Monnt Wair claims he was invited to testify before an investigating committee about instigating or hiring men to vote for Macdonald and was offered immunity for any offenses in British Columbia. He states he would testify fully if immunity is granted and risks jail if he travels to Victoria without it.
