give to the Government the benefit
of any savings made.
Attorney Hogan brought on: that
the construction work at Pearl Harbor
netted the Government $466,000 as
savings under the estimated cost OF
the work. and that the Government
got the benefit OF this.
The work on the December IL con.

OF the April 25 contract. MIR. Dunn
told Of u conference following the
opening. at which he and Mr.. Cotter
talked the question over with Balm
and Finney. Cotter said that he
hoped the department would recon-
mend bid A, since both of the Pan
American bids were the lowest sub
mitted.
"Mr. Cotter asked that the sigma
ture of the Secretary of the Navy
as we'll as that OF the Secretary of
the Interior be put to the contract"
There was quite a lively scene in
the conference room and considerable
argument over this point" the wit
ness related. "Finney said to Mr.
Cottcr, Now Joe, I don't think that
Is at all necessary He said that
Cotter replied: Il feel so strongly about
this judge, that l don't feel confident
in taking responsibility for this con
tract unless the Secretary of the Navy
signs it, too"

Wanted Economical Work.
Mr.. Dunn resumed his testimony
after the luncheon recess. He said he
first met Secretary Fail some time
during March Of 1922 and was intro
duced by Bain. The conversation was
mostly social. but they did discuss
the proposed work Mt Pearl Harbor.
Mr., Fall Expressed to him. the witness
testified. that he hoped to have the
work done as cheaply and economi-
cally IN possible.
When did you next meet Mr..
FallY"
To-day, at lunch" he said.
Mr.. Dunn related that. he had pre-
pared A and B bids for the Pan
American co. and that the last
touch was put on the drafts April
Ia. the day before they went to
washington to submit the bids. Mr..
Cotter had prepared another Craft,
he explained, which he worked into
his own draft. No one connected
with the Government saw the bids
before they were offered, ne testi-
fed.
The question of preferential
rights" was brought up by Mr.. Hogan,
and the witness explained that ne
had discussed this with Mr.. Cottcf.
He told Cotter that such a clause
would not in his opinion disquality
the bid, but would really make 1t
more attractive.
In response to questions by Mr.
Hogan, he explained that as the act
ing agent for the Pan-American Co.
his friend had been allowed a fee OF
$172, 900 on the April 25 contract
work. This would allow a profit of
Z to 10 per cent.

The Theatre reaches its full earning
power Immediately ly upon opening.
Based on appraisal of the property,
the value of the tang bile assets amounts
to over $4s for each share of Class

Increase of market value of Roxy
Stocks should be great during the next
three months. Moreover, 1ses of net
earnings after preferred dividends must
be used TO retire Glass "a" stock,
which is not callable for less than $50
per share. The Corporation has agreed
to make application in due. course to
list the shares on the New York Curb
Market.
Common stock of the Balaban &
katz theatrical enterprise in Chicago,
which was given away like Roxy
Theatres Common Stock as bonus,
returned over $500 Share to investors
and the equity ownership Of such
theatres as the Rivoli, Rialto, Strand

The Child Welfare Society's tea.

this afternoon women of the highest
official and social circles of the Ma,
ton.
Mrs. Frank B. Kellogg, wife Of the
Secretary of State; Mrs. Frank w.
Stearns, personal friend Of President
and Mrs. Coolidge and at present a
White House guest. and Mrs. Fred
erick II. Gillett. wife of Senator Gil
lett of Massachusetts. are to be the
guests of Mrs. Frank B. Noyes. presi.
dent of the Child Welfare Society.
With these patrons will be served
the scores of late afternoon shoppers
who drop in for a cup of hot tea and
perhaps a golden waffle before going
home. The mattresses" today. as on
each Of the two preceding days of the
sale. will be a committee Of the sea
sons debutantes and young society
matrons. Mrs. Godfrey Fl. Thomp-
son is chairman today and she and
Miss Allison Roebling will be hostesses.
While the tearoom caters to the
hungry, the rummage sale continues
to draw hundreds of buyers. Although

One Of the most interesting booths,
perhaps, is the book department. It's
stock is as yet complete in variety.
and booklovers NAV browse to their
hearts content. Mrs. A. Livingston
Stavely and Mrs. Victor Kaufman
preside at that counter.
The success which had attended
the first two days OF the seven-day
bazaar lis expressed, the workers de-
clare, by nearly So 900 which has been
realized from the sales. That success
has brought with 1t encouragement
TO the women in charge, who are now
certain, they said this morning, of
completing the S1OO.000 endowment
fund of the Child Welfare Society,
which is the real purpose Of the rum
mage sale and its auxiliary, the tea
room.
