INK EXPERT IN ALLDS
CASE CROSS-EXAMINED
Conger's Lawyer Tries to Shake Tes-
timony That Bank Check
Stub Was ''Fixed.n.

ALBANY, n Y, March Ex-senator
Conger's attorney wrestled long with Sen
ator Aids ink expert today to discredit
the latter's testimony that Conger's side
liked the Groton Bank check stub that
figured as the prosecutions most impor-
tant exhibit in the Senate bribery investi-
cation today.
The expert, Albert HI. Hamilton. said
that under the microscope the words Al
bany natter which. he asserts were
written lately in an effort to make the
stub support Conger's charge, looked bluer
than the rest. This enabled Lawyer Os-
born to invite the senator's to look at the
exhibit for themselves and make their
own decision regarding its reliability.
The senate today set Tuesday, March
%, as the date for the vote on sustaining
Conger's charges. There is some talk of
considering the question in executive SEES
sion behind closed doors and then voting
in public. but it is feared this course
would raise cry of 'whitewash.''
