PAPERS STUDIED

LINCOLN SECRET

Collection to Be Released After July 26, 1947.

By DOROTHY WILLIAMS | United Press Staff Correspondent

secluded stacks of the library of congress, on this birthday of Abra~ ham Lincoln seeret work is progressing on a collection of personal papers which may yield new infor‘mation on his life and times. Few persons now living—possibly only one—know the contents of the collection given to the library more than 26 years ago by Robert Todd Lincoln, son of the civil wartime President. Not until July 26, 1947, and maybe later will the public be told what the papers from the desk and personal files of the Great Emancipator reveal. In giving the collection to the library, Robert Todd Lincoln specifled ‘that it be “carefully preserved from official or public inspection or private view” until at least 21 years after his death. Indexing Allowed The 21 years—Robert Todd Lincoln, one-time president of the Pullman Co., died here July 26, 1926— expire July 26, 1047. However, six months, before his death the son wrote the library that it could proceed with indexing the “letters, manuscripts, documents and other private papers” to prepare them “against the time when they shall be opened to the public.” There has been much speculation, but no official explanation, as to why Robert Todd Lincoln conditioned his gift with instructions that it be withheld from the public for the 21 years. Most persons believe that he did this to prevent any possible embarrassment to men or women, then living, who were mentioned in his father's files, Students of Lincolnia, however, look for little startling from ‘the disclosure of the collection’s contents. Much Speculation They believe it will be of chief value to scholars in filling in the tapestried background of the civil WAr era. : A few others have contended .the collection will reveal that a member of Lincoln's cabinet was in donspiracy with his assassin. These theories, scholarly and otherwise, bring a constant trickle of inquiries to the library. Dr. Luther H. Evans, librarian of congress, reiterated that every precaution will continue to be taken to keep the contents secret until July 26, 1947. : One library employee, assigned to the job more than three years ago,| is working alone on the indexing, he said.

PAYMENTS TO CITY ENGINEER DEBATED

Oral arguments were heard yesterday by Circuit Court Judge Lloyd D. Claycombe in a suit to recover approximately $13,500 allegedly paid illegally to Art Henry, former city engineer, Defendants - besides Mr. Henry are Roy Hickman, city controller; Frank Huse, county treasurer, and the eity. ‘Plaintiff is Frank E. Gates, representing a taxpayers association. ¢ The' complaint alleges that the funds were paid improperly to the former city engineer for track elevation services during the period from Jan. 17, 1043, until last Jan, 1.

Edward Knight, attorney for Mr.

Gates, contended provisions of a| state law authorizing payment of | $5000 annually for work of this! nature did not apply to Mr. Henry. | The latter's salary as city engineer was $4500 annually. Attorney for Mr. Henry is Sidney 8. Miller. Corporation Counsel Arch Bobbitt represents the city, The suit was filed last Oct. 17.
