Thesis Prepared Before
Inquiry
NOT REQUIRED TO
ANSWER QUESTIONS
Senate Committee Probes
Record, but Confirma-
ton Is Sure


Washington, Jan. 30.-After the SEN
ate Naval Affairs Committee had ques'
toned DR.. Cary T. Grayson for about
half an hour to-day the committee
voted. on strictly party lines, for IA
vorable report on his nomination to be
a rear admiral in the navy. Only two
Republicans were present when the
vote was taken, Senators Lodge and
Poindexter. Both voted against a 10
vorable report. No vote was asked on
the nomination at to-day's executive
session of the Senate, but no doubt is
expressed by Senators opposed to the
nomination that DR.. Grayson will be
confirmed.
DR.. Grayson was asked by Senator
Poindexter about reports that he had
failed in various examinations. The
doctor said that he had presented him.
self for promotion to assistant surgeon
three years after entering the service,
in July, 1908.
"The examination seemed to bt more
than | thought I could pass, and
asked to be allowed to withdraw" he
said. He added that it was then sug-
sested he should take the examination
for hospital steward.
"But / withdrew from that" he said,
because ! wanted to be an inferno at
Columbia Hospital. The examination
seemed a little HARD, especially the
chemistry"
He testified that his medical educa-
tion was received at the Medical Col
lege at Richmond, where he studied
three years. but did not take a degree,
and at the University of the South. at
Sewanee, Tenn, from which he was
graduated.
The doctors testimony showed that
he had been favorite of three Presi-
dents Roosevelt, Taft and Wilson. He
was ordered to the White House by
President Taft, was called in to attend
members OF President Roosevelts fam
lily. frequently rode horseback with
T. r., and on one occasion took hun
dred-mile physical trip" with him.
The committee was much interested
in DR.. Grayson's account of the exami-
nation he had on January 10, following
which he was named as rear admiral.
lie was not asked any questions, either
orally or in writing, he said, but was
told TO submit thesis. He had type
written. he declared, thesis on blood
pressure, which he had been working
on for some time, and submitted this,
which proved satisfactory. He OBJ
t,;nod nernission, he said, to submit
the thesis, which had been written pre-
vious to the examination.
He testified he had lived with sur
geon General Rixey, who was on the
examining board for three years, ana
that General Rixey's brother marned
DR.. Grayson's half-sister: Dr. Graysoh
denied that he was related TO MIS-
