true. Some of them, she stated, had been
attributed to her. Mrs. Davis says the
conditions are nothing like as serious as at
first given out.
After denying specifically that she
stated that the Daughters had been deal
ing in stocks" and gambling" it is set
forth:
What Mrs. Davis did say, for con-
firmation of which she refers to the re-
port of the meeting of the board of man
agement. officially reported in the April

be an i'll advised purchase Of railroad
bonds, which have suffered a decline along
with the general depression of the mar
ket. Bonds amounting to s24.477.10 were
purchased for the society, the market value
Saturday had dropped 1925. This stock
consists in Chicago and Alton, $4,000. 60, the
par value Of which is $4,000; Baltimore
and Ohio, s1o:15o, the Par value Of which
is $4,000, and Union Pacific to the value
of s10.326.5o, the par value of which is
$4,000.
Mrs. Davis did not state that nothing
would be realized from the Chicago and
Alton bonds for twenty years; this was
said by one of the members of the So
ciety present at the meeting. who alleged
that she was quoting Mr.. Hartman, who
sold out his holdings in the road just be-
fore the drop in the value Of its stocks
and bonds
Denial Announced.
Mrs. Davis also denies that she has
called up the matter of her differences
with the president general at this time
for political purposes. She declares that
she desired to have her statements and
objections Incorporated in her report of

that the president general ruled such out
of her report, contrary to all precedent"
The counter-statement is made that no Of
ticer Of the d. A. r. is permitted to in
clude personal opinions comments in
report to the national board unless eX-
pressly appointed to investigate and report
personal opinions of findings" member
