HULL REITERATEs CHARGES
Counters Against Lasker's Defense
of "Million-Dollar Joyride."

Federation of charges of waste
and extrayagance in the trial trip
nf the Leyiathan was made by Chair
man Hull of the democratic national
committee in q statement last night.
Replying to the statement issued
by Chairman Lasker of the board,
Mr.. Hull declared responsibility for
the million dollar jov ride" could
not be shifted to democratic officials
of the last administration, since the
contract for reconditioning the ves-
sci was not signed until 1922.
Quotes Graham's Statement.
THE proposed investigation of
Chairman Lasker's so-called million
dollar joy ride" said Mr. Hul's state
ment. "and his administration Of the
Shipping Board generally. rather than
criticism Of his Leviathan junket,
may have furnished the reason for
his belated explanation OF that now
more or less joyless affair. Before
the democratic national committee
made any comment upon it Repre-
sentative William j. Graham Of Hill
nois. scheduled as the republican
leader in the next House. had cam
ceIed his acceptance of an invitation
and was quoted in the public press
as saying:
1.-The trip is not necessary; the
ship had one trial trip from Newport
News to Boston, Mass. Why take
another? This Is the most I'M
justifiable excursion 1 ever heard Of
Cost SS,2OO.OOO.
why did not Chairman Lasker
make his explanation at that time ?
Instead he has persistently refused
to give out list of invited guests.
but has given the impression, that the
use of this greatest of liners was his
private affair and that he owed no ex-
PLANTATION to the taxpayers who are
paying the bills for this entertain
ment of himself and his friends.
"As to the cost. the need and the
result of the cruise, a congressional
investigation can best determine that,
as well as determine the cost of re-
conditioning the ship and putting
her into service, originally estimated
at SOL 600, to which Shipping
Board plans have added an extra
charge. making total of $S,200,00O.
Denies Payne's Responsibility,
Chairman Lasker in an attempt to
screen himself dates the inception of
this junket from the administra ton
of the Shipping Board under John
Barton Payne, q democratAand refers
to the reconditioning contract as the

G. @. P. Chairman Comes Out
for Lasker's PEan-BeIittles
Criticism.

Chairman Adams OF the repub-
liCan national committee said to-
day he was ain full sympathy"
with the proposed trial trip Of the
Shipping Board liner L.eviathan,
and regarded criticism of the trip
by the democratic national com
mittce unjusiified and unwar-
ranted The democratic commit
tees attack seemed particularly
cut of place. he declared. when
the last democratic administration
squandered more money in one day
than the democratic committee
now alleged the whole Leviathan
trip will cost"
The republican chairman said
that. although he had declined an
invitation by Chairman Lasker to
be a guest Of the board on the
trial trip. the only reason for his
doing so was his inability TO be
absent at that time from his po-
litical duties.
George B. Lockwood, secretary
of the republican committee. said
today he also had declined to go
for The same reason. adding that
he fully approved the trip and
thought MIR. Lasker should be
