Former Washington Bank Cashier Says Downey Shbung Company Was Have Secured Valuable Contracts After Agreeing to Furnish $40000 to Be Divided Among Men

NEW YORK. Nov. 2O.- Charges that R. w. Boiling. b. other in law of President Wilson ana treasurer of the shipping board, participated in the distribution of $40,OO0 alleged to have teen given by a shipbuilding company for assistance in obtaining a shipbuilding contract, were con- tained in testimony today before the Walsh Investigating committee.
 The money, it was charged by Tuc1er K. Sands. former official of the Commercial National Bank in Washington, and alleged go-between was given by the Wallace Downey Shipbuilding Company of Staten Is- land. Others, he alleged. participat- ed. included Lester Sisler. former secretary of the shipping board. land John Cranor. said to have beens in serested as a representative of the Downey Company in shipping board contracts.
 Sands replies to questions proved contradictory at times. He charged there was an understanding that $15,O00 was to go to Cranor and that the remaining S25,000 was to be di- vided among Cranor. Boiling, Sisler and himself He at first said he knew neither Boiling nor Sisler had anything to do with the boards con tract and that he did not believe Boiling received any of the money.
 Money Was "Commission"
 Later he testified he gave Boiling $500 in the nature of a loan. but that Boiling paid back $500 and that he had taken no note from the treas urer. Afterwards. he said, the $500 was part payment to MT Boiling for his share" and that he carried it as loan as he did not think 1t would look right"
 Don't you know, as a matter of fact, that this payment had nothing whapever to do with the shipping board?" Chairman Walsh asked.
 'I cant say. I always thought it had" replied the witness.
 Sands testified he received the money in the form of notes" some of which he discounted and describ- ed payments to Boiling and Sisler as both payments and loans
 He also asserted that the mony was to be undPrstood as commis- sion to him for securing loan from the bank to the shipbuilding com pany, with which the witness was connected.
 The testimony of Sands was pre- ceded by that of A. w. McCann, a reporter. who swo<e he had secured from Sands an affidavit detailing the transaction. McCann further testi- fled that when he took the affidavit to Sands to sign he declined to do so on advice of hisattorney.
 Previous to submitting the affi- davit however. McCann said he had taken it to the shipping beard and had it photo-stated One copy car rying notations in what was testified to being "correct except that some of the facts may tr little different" was presented by McCann in evi- dence The document however. was not made part of the stencgraph- CTS minutes.
 Testimony Differs

He said he had never had any controversy with Boiling. He also told of a purchase by him from Boiling of note for $500.
 Sands testified he was under in- dictment for allowing company to overdraw-a shipping company. in which l was interested" He tes- tified he was then cashier" of the Commercial National Bank of Wash ington. He also testified he had en- deavored to secure MT. EollinR's in- fluence to have this case settled
 ~This document says" Chairman Walsh informed the witness ,eferr. ing to the photo-state. tha S40.00O is to be divided in the following manner: $25,000 10 be paid in one lot and equally divided in the sum Of $6250 for each of the four of us- Sisler. Boiling. Cranor and myself |"

 Yes sir"
 And you say during the negotia- tons. Mir. Downey came to Washing ton. He ratified the agreement where by $40.0O0 compensation was to be paid
 'I think I did" the witness replied.
 Sands said he introduced Craner to Boiling and Sisler. He testified to receiving the notes from the represen- tauive of Downey, but added there was one thing he would have to look up" referring to the photo-state document-'and that was whether I paid MT Boiling any of the proceeds Of these notes"
 Don't you know you never paid him cent?" Mir Walsh asked
 T don't recall that l did pay him on this deal; l don't think l did"
 Says He Owes Boiling
 Sands then testified he had pur- chased lot from Boiling and that he still owed Boiling $900. He also tes- tified to asking Boiling to intercede for him with the department of jus tice to get the case against him brought by the bank, out of the de- partment of justice. Mir. Boiling had refused he testified.

 Yes sir" replied Sands.
 And you were to use your influ- ence with these two gentlemen?'' all"
 What were you to get money for this introduction?
 That is what thought"
 He said MT Downey insisted" that the ''ostensible consideration for these notes should be for seryrces of Sands in procuring loan for Downey."
 He said he did procure loan for Downey amounting to $100.000. which he said, was very favorable for the

WASHINGTON Nov. 2O.-Nearly one half of the disbursements of the shipping board Emergency Fleet cor Iporation over a period of 17 months, totaling over s2,OO0. .OOO. 900. were un- supported by proper vouchers, accord ing to the audit of the corporation's accounts submitted to Secretary Hous- ton today. by the comptroller of the treasury in his annual report The audit was made by direction of congress for the period of October 1918 to February, 1920, and showed a total disbursements of the fleet corporation were $2,732,915,213, of which exception to the payment of $1. .1S4, 4,326,243 was taken by the comp troller because of the Tack of sup porting papers" Subsequent produce tion of supporting papers, however, the comptroller said, resulted in a credit to the corporation of $70,625.- S9S leaving a balance as of February of $1,113, ,700,345, disapproved by the auditors.
 The comptroller presented figures only up to February, but M. J.

That Is about as sensible as say ing it costs more to make goods by machinery than by hand, be- cause you have to buy the ma chine.
 Without advertising you have to sell goods "by hand" Just as a machine will make ten times, or a hundred times, as many articles as can be made by hand; so advertising sells ten times, or a thousand times, as many articles as can be sold "by hand"
 For instance: A merchant buys a stock of certain line of goods. He spends a thousand dollars for these goods. Occasionally some one buys one of them, but most of his thousand dol
