Davis said
Where did you turn over this money
to Hines?"
Various places-in my car. at Hines
home and at the ONCE of Joseph
shalleck, Hines attorney" Davis re-
piled.
Shalleck is one of Hines attorneys in
the current trial
Davis story Of paying Hines the
81, 900 Fix" money corroborated previ-
Gus testimony by Weinberg.
Mr. Dewey's method in having Davis
concede previous perjury on direct
examination apparently was designed
to beat the defense to that point.
The dapper young lawyer. disbarred
after his connections with the multi
million-dollar Schultz policy racket
became known, took the stand after
John F. Curry, deposed boss Of Tam
many Hall. had testified under cross
examination Of his long standing feud
with Hines.
Mr.. Curry had put the finger on
Hines yesterday in an unheralded ap-
pearance as a States witness, testify
ing that Hines was powerful enough to
dictate" the nomination of William
C. Dodge for the district attorneyship
in 1888 and that Hines and other dis
trict leaders frequently got him to ar
range the transfer of policemen from
their assigned posts.
The transfers. he said, invariably
were made at rate of between "25
and so" year
Hines is accused of giving political
protection to the Schultz gang.
Il did not blame Hines for my de-
posal from the leadership Of Tammany
Hail." Mr.. Curry said. Butt have
never spoken to him since then"
Palpably nervous, the one-tlme law
clerk who rose to the affluence of
SITS suits and 5000 topcoats as at
torney for the Schultz policy racket,
spoke in a low, thin voice.
Only once did Davis look at Hines.
1t was a quick, furtive glance. coldly
returned by the 6l-year-old defendant.
and then Davis quickly returned to
what has been heralded as his sing
ing lesson" under the adroit tutorship
of Mr.. Dewey.
Singing lesson" in the jargon Of
the underworld. is the action Of a
prosecutor in getting reluctant wit
ness to testify or "squeal."
Step by step. describing how Schultz
"muscled in" on the small bankers to
form $4,000, ,000-a-year syndicate,
Davis corroborated the previous testi-
mony Of George Weinberg. another
Schultz mobster who "squealed."

While Senator Sheppard was busy
studying Mr.. Harton's report, Senator

feated by Mr.. Stewart for the nomi-
nation, fired another broadside re-
newing his charges that Harry S..
Berry, w. P. A. administrator for
Tennessee and his assistant, Rhoton
Cliff, were leaders in the campaign
against him.
Senator Berry asserted in a letter
to Sheppard that w. P. A. Admin
tstrator Harry L. Hopkins had at
tempted to "besmear" him in writ
ing Senator Sheppard that the Sen
ator had demanded that we turn
over the Works Progress Administra-
ton in Tennessee to him bag and bag

Mr.. Hopkins letter was written in
answer to charges involving the w.
P. A. that Senator Berry previously
made to Sheppard's committee.

COMPROM|SEPLAN
Montgomery Organization
to Supply Lewis Checked
Ballots on Request.
By staI Correspondent of The Star.

By Stan Correspondent Of The Star.
ROCKVILLE, Md, Aug. 31-The
Montgomery County United Demo-
cratic organization today announced a
compromise policy in regard to the
senatorial race between Senator Tyd-
ings and Representative David J..
Lewis.
County Democratic Chairman Rob-
ert Peter in formal statement said
that the endorsements given Senator
Tydings at the Democratic County
Congress last March would not be
withdrawn, but that sample ballots
checked for Representative Lewis would
be supplied to organization workers
supporting his candidacy.
The same policy will be followed
in the gubernatorial race. While the
organization has indorsed and will
support Mayor Howard w. Jackson Of
Baltimore for the Democratic .nomi-
nation, sample ballots checked for
Attorney General Herbert r. O'Conor
and State Senator Lansdale G. Sasscer
will be available to organization work.
ers favoring their candidates..
Mr.. Peter explained that the policy
was result Of the belief by organ
ization leaders that questions involved
In the senatorial campaign should be
brought out in the 1910 presidential
election and not in the present State
and county elections.
Peters Statement.
Mr.. Peters statement read in part:
The Democrats of our county are
divided into two general groups, one OF
which generally approves the objectives
OF the Roosevelt administration, and
another which believes the Roosevelt
administration has gone too far in what
is generally described as the liberal
direction.
However, both those Democrats in
the United Democratic Organization
who expect to support the general OBJ
jectives Of the national administration
in the 1910 campaign. and those who
expect to oppose the program are un-
willing to split the United Democratic
Organization in this country on this
searching question this year. In this
campaign of 1888 we are working for
the election Of Governor. an entire
State ticket, and 40 county and judicial
candidates.
The fairest and most consistent
course. then, appears to be for the
workers OF the United Democratic Or
ganization to support the candidates
indorsed by the county congress. which
includes the candidacy OF Senator
Tydings for denomination.
Applies to Governor.
Such fairness necessarily includes
that the sample ballot be marked for
the candidates Endorsed in February, to
include Senator Tydings, Mayor Jack
sons State ticket and the county can-
didates Endorsed by the county con-
eress. Where candidates indorsed in
March have withdrawn, the organiza-
ton will support the candidates in
dorsed by the joint meeting Of group
Of the recognized leaders of both of the
organized factions Of the party held so
days ago in Rockville, and the sample
ballots will be so marked.
The organization workers will give
ballots upon which either Mr.. O'Con-
nor. Senator Sasscer or Representative
Lewis are marked to organization
voters who have expressed a desire to
support any one of these candidates,
and the other State and county candi-
dates supported by the United Demo-
cratic Organiza ton"

Chairman Sheppard Of the Senate
Campaign Expenditures Committee
said today he would look into pub
lished reports that Mrs Maude Toulson,
Salisbury (MdD postmistress has taken
an active part in the campaign Of Rep
resentative Lewis.
The chairman's attention was called
to reports quoting Dr. E. J. Clarke,
editor of the Worcester Democrat, say
ing Mrs. Toulson had placed Lewis
advertising with Eastern Shore news
papers and had asked editors to pub
lish an editorial favoring Mr.. Lewis.
The committees authority to investi-
gate would be based on its direction
by the Senate to inquire into alleged
use of public funds for political pur.
poses, Chairman Sheppard said. He
said the committee considered that
public funds were involved If q Fed
eral employe carried out any political
activity in working hours.
The President told reporters yes
terday he had been amused and
then saddened by the advertisement,
which he called an hysterical state
ment.
Representative Lewis also attecked
the advertisement, which was aimed at
the Presidents announced intention of

clared the President has the right of
free speech in the Free State"
Commenting on the Presidents
statement, Endicott Rich, publicity d.
rector Of the Tydings campaign, said
we aren't ashamed Of what we say,
and We are pleased II We amused
him"
How Advertisement Read.
The advertisement, distributed to
rs weekly newspapers in Maryland,
read in part:
Citizens of Maryland: Defend your
State against Federal invasion. Your
constitutional rights are threatened
by the Federal administration, SUD-
ported by the c, I. O., John L. Lewis
and the communists. Preserve your
civil and religious liberties guaranteed
to you under your Bin of Rights and
State constitution. Vote for Millard
E. Tydings."
Mr.. Lewis asserted the advertise
ment raises an implied charge of
Communism against both President
Roosevelt and myself. All men know
the President is not a communist, and
all men who know me personally know
equally well that I am not a com.
munist. I have no sympathy what
