Whether privacy of tax procedure is not a contributing factor to the abuses.

for Ralston and not permit himself to be drafted. "Next, somebody asked, ‘What about Daugherty?’ I toid them I had known Daugherty for years, and that he is of a kindly nature and would do a favor for anybody if he could. “Then I expressed the hope he would stick, because if he resigns it would be an admission of guilt. "It 1h all right for the boys here in Indianapolis to send messages, but 1 think it would have been Just as well if they had got (he facts first, because anybody who knows me knows I would not favor keeping any man who is wrong or crooked in office." Bend Messages The message he referred to was sent to Democratic members of the Senate Investigating Committee telling them Indiana Democrats were behind them. Another message also was sent to Smith. Senators Walsh and Ashurst are friends of mine.” Taggart continued. "They are high-grade, honorable men and I am sure no man would cast retlections on their integrity oi honor. In my conversation with New York reporters I made no reference whatever to the Senate investigating committee. Neither was anything derogatory’ said of Governor Smith.” Taggart was met by a number of persons at the Union Station. Daugherty Glad •Til bet Daugherty is glad you ore back.” said one man. “You seem to be the only friend he has left.” Exception Is Taken A telegram signed by Charles P. Tlghe as secretary and Thomas D. McGee as president of the "Institute of Democracy" has been sent to Senators Walsh, Burton K. Wheeler and Aashurst, taking exceptions to the statement which New York dispatches said was made by Taggart. The telegram: "Reflecting the sentiment of the loyal and uncompromising Democracy of Indiana, we convey assurance of the highest appreciation of the yeoman service, being rendered by your committee for the welfare of our country and justification of Democratic and progressive opposition to the corrupt and demoralizing action of public officials in high stations, and emI phatically declare that the startling utterance of ex-Senator Taggart does not express the sentiment of Indiana’s citizenry, and as Democrats, we de piore the spectacle of utir former Democratic Senator, and heretofore, accepted leader of the party in Indiana, engaging himself In publicly defending Attorney General Daugherty through the public press, and casting reflections upon the efforts of your committee to uncover a course of corrupt conduct unequaied in the history of our country. Political Capital Intended "As militant. Democrats we propose to follow and present to the voters of Indiana, for their condemnation, the corruption uncovered by you; and to hold the Republican party responsible for the acts of its officials, and hope to purge the Democratic party in Indiana from everything which unfortunately, has many times given occasion for Democrats to lose confidence and to freely express suspicion of bipartisan agreements arranged by the Republican and Democratic leaders. Indiana now furnishes a special example of the evils of bipartisan politics.” Wire Sent, to Smith Tighe and McGee sent this telegram to Smith: ”We deprecate ex-Senator Taggart's interview, and give assurance that while Indiana Democrats favor Senator Ralston, they do not share the views of ex-Senator Taggart, nor approve of his efforts to disparage your qualifications and availability.” McGee and Tlghe are the leaders of the fight in Marion County against Russell Ryan as Democratic County chairman. Ryan is said to nave the friendship of Taggart and it has been intimated the fight is against Taggart Tlghe Issues Statement Tighe issued a statement saying: “Until today Mr. Taggart was not an issue. His Judgment and leadership were unquestioned, so far a-s 1 know. However, as a Democrat. I am at present rendered uncomfortable by his I uni ©at-d-of castigation and denouncement of the Democratic senatorial I leaders engaged in the patriotic duty of exposing the unparalleled corruption in high places of the Republican party. flk i “I feel that if any utterance from Mr. Taggart was neoessary he should have commended, rather than excoriated the great public service being rendered at Washington, notwithj standing his personal Intimacy with i Daughartr.”

however, has gone on steadily. “My affliction has made it hard for me to talk,” says Paula. “I couldn't make the examiners at Ellis Island understand me. And the questions were all so easy. It would have been different had they only let .me write the answers down on paper.” So the operation, Paula thought, was the only way out. And she willingly made the sacrifice. “I came hire to the hospital,” she declares, “because it was my chance to show how dear America is to me. Perhaps they'll let me stay now.” Order Still Stands Perhaps they will. But that deportation order stiU is on file. Paula’s case is pending in the Court of Appeals. And Representative Daniel A.

Senator Chamberlain, that you must have blushed with shame when you read it.” As Wheeler spoke, Mrs. Stinson pressed her handkerchief to her mouth to hold back her sobs. Her eyes slowly filled with tears which trickled down her cheeks. To Chamberlain's charge that Roxie Stinson’s and Gaston B. Means' testimony was unsupported, Wheeler said: "She has letters in her possession in which Smith referred to deals and stock which she will produce. I say It was an unmanly and indecent thing for the Attorney General to make the attack he did on her." In Difficult Position "The Attorney General is in a very difficult position,” Chamberlain replied. "Difficult!” exclaimed Wheeler. "Is not the oommittee's position difficult with the Attorney General holding the power of his department over our witnesses, with the greatest detectives in the world working for his department for him?” Wheeler then declared Daugherty should be suspended and said the President was open to criticism for failing to do so. Armed with documents to back up her sensational story of Jesse Smith’s "deals” in liquor, pardons and official Influence, Mrs. Stinson then took the stand. Mrs. Ma’ "1 Wiliebrandt, assistant attorney general in charge of prohibition forc< sat at the committee table with Daugherty’s counsel. She was present, it was said, to observe the course of the "booze deal” disclosures, with a view to possible prosecutions. Didn’t Expect It “I'd like to take up Mr. Daugherty’s first statement to the papers. He refers to me as a ’woman disappointed because Jesse Smith did not make her his sole heir under his will’ ” Mrs. Stinson said. "Jesse Smith never led me to be lieve he would make me his heir. I was not Ms wife and didn't expect it. “He says I am a 'malicous woman disappointed at failure of tentative efforts to capitalize her silence.' I say that Is utterly false. Quite the lontrery, as my testimony wll Ehow. "I think I said people atterr pted to get information from me and even offered me money for ‘leads’ about Harry Daugherty.” “Who were these people?" Wheeler broke in. “A young man came to my door one day and told me he was a representative of the Associated Press, representing the ‘Citizen.’ He said he wanted to-interview me about Teapot Dome. I said I knew nothing about it.” Offered Her SI,OOO Mrs. Stinson said the name the newspaper man gave her was "Lyle Johnson.” She said he begged her to give him a ‘ lead" and offered her SI,OOO for the information. "I laughed at him,” she said, “and told him not to talk foolishness to me as I did not want to-get mixed up in this Washington affair.”
