ing, his office announced today.
The government ekpends millions of
dollars annually for rail and water
transportation, and under the present
system of payments by department dis
burslng offices vast overpayments are
made, which are not discovered until
the items are reported to and reached
many times months later in the gen.
eral accounting Office audit, when re-
funds are obtained
Under this system the interest loss
to the government has been large, as
the overpayments aggregate vast sums
and are usually out of the Treasury
many months. This is evidenced by
the fact that during ten and two thirds
months, since January / Of this year,
the general accounting Office has ex-
acted refunds from carriers aggregat-
Ing more than 100000, and has de-
Quoted from carriers bills in direct
settlements more than $4,000.
1t is the purpose of Comptroller Gem
eral McCarl to eliminate overpayments
to carriers by adopting a method of
direct settlement for all transports
ton items, an audit by the general ac-
counting office in advance of payment,
thereby keeping in the Treasury vast
sums that have heretofore improperly
gone to the carriers only to be col
lected back months later after the final
audit, and at the same time insuring
to the carriers prompt payment of the

LONDON, Nov. pa dispatch to
"The Daily Express" from Dublin says
sister of the late Michael Collins is
taking the lead in preparing petition
for the release of Mary MacSwiney.

ing outside the Mountjoy prison. Since
she was elected from a position at the
inner gate of the prison last Thursday
night by the military she has occupied
position on public platform.
There was constant stream of SYM
pathlzers passing her cot to-day, stop
ping moment before the screen con-
cealing the stretcher on which she lies
to observe what they might or to offer
prayers.
Miss MacSwiney says military off,
GER yesterday gave her an order to
move. but she declined to do so and
added, if the. military interfered with
her she would call the policeman on
duty and charge the military with as
sault. Nothing further happened, al
though she said the officer later made
representation about fire in the road
way near her cot which her friends
had built.

English Girl With Infant Son
Pleads to Land out Ellis Island
Kansas Gty Attorney and Wife Offer to Adopt
Them, but immigration Officials Are Ada
mant and Secretary of Labor Is Only Hope

Miss Nancy Jordan and her son,
Francis, two and q half years old
are now in first cabin quarters at Ellis
Island awaiting deportation, which yes
terday seemed inevitable Only one
power can save her from going back
to England as one not fitted to enter
the United States and that is the Sec
retary of Labor, who may admit her
under bond or other expedient.
Miss Jordan, quiet and pretty, mod
est and distinctly Of the British gen
tlewoman type, IS in despair. She has
not only appealed to Washington but
has written to Frank Warren, promi-
nent lawyer of Kansas City, upon
whose invitation and that Of his wife
she came to the United States. She
met Warren In London and she de-
scribed him as "full of knightly kind
ness" His wife, she said, was an angel
from Heaven, for the latter has offered
to adopt the nameless boy and take his
mother into her home.
But now the authorities deny her
admittance Co this sanctuary because
the immigration law forbids IL.
"It would be cruel,'' said Miss Jor-
dan, weeping quietly, "to withhold
from me and my child such love and
New-York tribune., 1922-11-27

forgiveness as Mrs. Warren holds out
across the broad ocean. She has said
she will adopt the child and give me 8
home in the house of herself and her
husband.
Miss Jordan when taken before q
special committee of inquiry refused
in her sworn testimony to name the
father of her child. She met Warren
in London while she was q bookkeepel
with the Famous Players-Lasky Com
pany and he was with the A. E. F. She
says she has no claim on him that
would make it imperative for him to
give her the shelter Of his home for
herself and child. He is just friend
and now the immigration authorities
are going to deny her that.
Both he and his wife," she testified,
"are actuated by benevoience and sym
patay in taking me in. She sent for
me and told me to bring the child.''
All the papers in the case of the
pretty young mother have been sent
TO Washington. Miss Jordan's par
ents, Mr.. and Mrs. John Jordan, %
iverson Road, Kilburn, London, know
OF her extreme plight and nope she
will be admitted. But it looks Just
now as If young Francis is going to see
MS grandparents soon.

Of Erskine Childers, referring to his
executionars, in an iuterviey she gave
the Tribune correspondent in her home
in the Dublin suburb Of Tcrenure to-
day. The interview took place in the
study of the executed leader where
the Sim Fein chiefs met often during
the "black and tar" terror when other
houses were unsafe.
Mrs. Childers revealed no trace Of
bitterness or resentment against the
former comrades of her husband who
sentenced him to death, as she spoke
with quiet enthusiasm about his work
for Ireland. Her husband had recent
ly told her he would be happy to die
for Ireland, she said, because he be-
lieved it would do the cause good
Confirming the report that the re-
volver for possession Of which Chill
ders was shot was given him by Mich
ael Collins, "Poor Nick" she exclaimed,
II am SO sorry for him" Mrs. Chill
ders declared she believed her husband
was misunderstood both in England
and ireland. and she was anxious that
the world should know the truth about
him.
The crippled American woman of
Irish descent, still young and charm
ing, the personality credited with the
dominant influence over the change in
her husbands convictions, talked to
the correspondent amid his books, a
library lined with shelves of volumes
on constitutional questions and quite
unrivalled in Dublin in that depart

Old Noah missed a lot of words

There are words in common use IN

Crooks speak language of their
own. 1t is the one of the ways which
thew have OF identifying those Of the
gentry" who drift into their COM
pany.
Far be it from yeggman to call
himself a safe cracker. To his intimate
friends he is 'peterman, which
identifies him as a member OF the sec
ond highest social set OF the under

steerer" is the party who leads the

man is the high class "ghee" that puts
the finishing touches to the victim.
A 'mouthpiece" may be lawyer or
a prominent person who will front
for a crook that has been arrested. 10
front" for a person is to appear IN
his behalf in court.
A gay cat" is the "peterman's" ad-
vance agent. He lays the plans for

in the actual robbery. A burglar kit
