CONTROLLER DURHAM DIsALLows THE AC-
COUNTS FOR TWO PICTUREs-THE DIsBU RISE
MENT DEFENDED.
First Controller Durham has disallowed
two items, amounting 10 S1,309. i'm the ac-
counts of Mr.. Ewing, disbursing officer of the
Department of Justice. One OF the items was
S115 for a portrait painting OF eX-Attorney Gen.
eral MacNeagh and the other 1914 for a
painting ofex-Attorney General Devens. Both
payments were charged 10 an appropriation for
miscellaneous items OF necessary char
acter."
Surprise is expressed by the officers OF the
Department of Justice at the action of the first
controller. There is an unwritten depart
mental law. IL is said, providing for the pur-
chase OF portraits OF caOi net officers ana IL is
thought that the miscellaneous appropriation
for labor, fuel, lights and other necessaries in
the Department of Justice is as applicable to
portraits OF Attorney Generals that for FUR
niture in the Treasury department Is for pur-
chasing portraits OF Secre tares of the Treasury.
In the Department of Justice there is "A portrait
of every Attorney General from the first To- At
tlrney General DeycnS. To be sure the pur.
chase of the portraits ia question WAS directed
by Attorney General Brewster. but the present
Attorney General has recognized the right TO
purchase such articles, 10y requesting cN-At-
torney General Brewster Ia have his portrait
painted by a com peten artist, for the walls OF
the Department OF Justice, Ia be paid for by
the department. In TINS view OF the case IL is
probable that the Attorney General and the
first controller may lock horns over the matter
