Ballots Remarked for
Carroll, Committee Says

A recount Of the ballots cast last fall
in the 18th Senate District In Brook
Ign, which the Senate Committee on
Privileges and Elections undertook at
the request Of Daniel ]. Carroll, who
was defeated by 333 votes, was COM
pletad yesterday, with the result that
most of the ballots under suspicion
were found to be marked in Mr.. Car
rolls favor.
Members of the committee, of which
Senator Schuyler NJ. Meyer jr. is chair
man, were inclined to believe after
examining the ballots that the lead of
338 votes which Abraham Katlin had
was obtained in spite Of deliberate
attempt to remark enough ballots TO
elect Mr.. Carroll.
Scores of the 600 ballots which had
been laid aside for further inspection
bore evidence of such tampering. Fiji
teen are straight prohibition ballots,
except for an erasura opposite the
name Of the candidate for Senator and
the substitution of Mr. Carroll. Almost
all of the otherwise straight Socialist
ballots bore similar erasures and sub
situations, and on scores of Republican
ballots Mr.. Carroll was the only Demo-
scrat voted for.
The election boards of four election
districts and two police captains have
.neen sabpenaed by the committee, and
District Attorney Lewis will have d
representative at the recanvass OF the
ballots

Charges Annapolis
'Flunks' Its Cadets
To Haze Congress
Senator Pomerene Assails
Naval Academy, Asserting
Law Is Disregarded in
Dismissal of Students
From The Tys,une.s washsngsos. Bareau

From Tire Tribune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, May 8. - Senator
Pomerene, of Ohio, Democrat, upbraid-
cd the authorities at the Naval Acade-
my to-day, charging they have disre-
garded or violated the law with relation
to the determination Of students found
deficient and the further instruction of
such students.
Senator Pomerene put the response
bility on the academic board and de-
manded an Investigation by the Naval
:, Affairs COMMITTEES, with recommends
tions FOR such additional legislation
as may be deemed necessary.
Senator Pomerene said 286 midship-
men failed on first examinations on
the term which ended January 30. One
hundred and ten were found deficient
in determinations. Senator Pomereno
pointed out that, whereas the new law
OF 1920 contemplates determination
and further instruction when cadet
falls TO pass, the reexaminaCions were
required immediately and redistribution
was required in the second academic
terms when the students had all the
work they could do in the regular cur
ricblum, without taking on additional
burdens.
Senator Pomerene contended that In
order to be fair and carry out the
usual policy of the past young man
found deficient should be turned back
for year and not forced out Instead
of this the deficient men were given
sudden notice to resign or be dropped.
Such notice was given in March and
the spirit of the law of Congress was
not carried out, according to the Sena-
tor
Senator Pomerene charged the ac-
tion of Superintendent A. Fl. Scales and
the academic board was due to resent
ment over the passage o. Congress of
the law of June s, 1890, which requires
determinations and additional instruc-
ton.
Though hazing at the academy is
punished severely, it looks to me as
If the academic board had set out to
haze Congress" said Senator Pome-
rene.
Senator Spencer, of Missouri, through
a question, brought out that of the
tion had failed only in single study.
That study in most instances was
electricity.
SIT is commonly understood" said
Senator Pomerene, that the inst'uc-
tors in electricity do not measure up
to the standard"
He spoke of one instance where a
young man, just about to graduate.
who stood 24S in electricity, the pass
ing mark being ESQ, was compelled to
resign.
Here is young man who was
forced out though he was just two

Rabbi f. B. NJ. Browne, public de-

said yesterday that he had reported to
the police that documents relating to

unfair treatment Of Jewish soldiers by
General Pershing had been stolen from

o'clock when he left the place and

an automobile containing two men
which stood at the curb.
Friends of Rabbi Browne began to
expostulate with him about his inten-
tion Of walking to the elevated station
and the friendly dispute, Rabbi Browne
said, was interrupted by one Of the two
men in the automobile who offered to
take him in their car to the station.
They had gone only short distance,
Rabbi Browne said, when one of the
motorists remarked that he understood
that the elders soon were TO issue a
reply to Henry Ford, and that RABBIT
Browne had been in correspondence
with General Pershing concerning al
legations that Jews in the expedition
airy forces were treated unfairly.
Rabbi Browne told the men, he said,
that the elders were about to issue
such a statement, and that notice Of
their intention had been given to Cen
eral Pershing in order that he might
have an opportunity to reply to the
charge made by Mr.. Marshall.
At that, he said, the two men told
him that they knew all about it, and
had offered to take him to the elevated
station simply to get possession. of the
documents he was carrying. He was
too old and infrm to resist them, he
said, and they went through his
carrying.
Then. said Rabbi Browne, they put
him out of the car, said Good night. DR..
Browne" and drove away, leaving him
to continue his trip to the elevated
station as best he might. He con-
suited with the elders yesterday and
then reported the attack to the police.
