Mr.. Miller. who Travelled from
Cleveland to New York to attend
the affair, insisted he did so at his
own expense, and pointed out he
had reimbursed Mr.. Smith $40 ad-
vanced to cover his round-trip fare.
The witness told the committee

Mr.. Miller emphasized he did not

John w. Bricker's economy claims

relief policy 'hard-hearted and cal
lously Indifferent" his Democratic
predecessor, Martin L. Davey, as
serted tonight.
"You are still the great spend
thrift Governor of Ohio" Mr.. Davey
said in a letter dispatched to Gov.
Bricker at the Ohio Society in New
York, where the Governor discussed
his first years stewardship of the
State government tonight.
Gov. Bricker's assertion that his
Republican administration saved
$10,000,000 in 1899, said Mr.. Davey,
rs a deliberate falsehood and I
challenge you to prove it." Instead,
he asserted, the Bricker administra-
ton is spending this year S7OOO,OO
more than it collected in taxes.
"The most astounding falsehood
ever told by a man in public Office"
was Mr.. Davey's comment on Gov.
Bricker's assertion that he inherited
a $40,000,000 deficit from the Davey
administration.
Mr.. Davey was defeated for re-
nomination in 1888 by Charles Saw
yer, who subsequently lost to Gov.
Bricker.

He added that Fred G. Krivonis,
special field examiner in the

advised him to make industry fear"
him as well as the board.
In that connection, Chief Com
mittee Counsel Toland read into
the record a memorandum from Mr..
Miller to Nathan Witt, board secre-
tary, dated April l last, in which
he said in connection with the Hoov-
er Vacuum Co. case:

file an 8 (2) charge"
Mr.. Witt, however, answered that
statement in a report which showed
up in the boards records as a "file
record" with the following memo
randum, in part:
"Miller's statement is entirely in
correct. Miller was at no time in

Mr.. Miller also pointed out that
during his services on the board he
dined with representatives of various

never been questioned until the New

In this particular instance, how

with respect to Mrs. Herrick.
Mr.. Miller's disclosure he was
forced to resign from the N. L. R. B.

Representative Routzohn, Republi-

Their ranks are thinned and

along the line of march. but the
veterans still parade these warm
spring days to a hallowed mound
out in the center of the major league
ball parks.
They were there yesterday-Dizzy
Dean, Bob Grove, Carl Hubbell,
Tommy Bridges, Lefty Gomez, Ted
Lyons and Fred Fitzsimmons.
They we're there the day before
Charley Rufing, Larry French,
Schoolboy Rowe. And they'll be
there again-Wes Ferrell, Willis
Hudlin, Earl Whitehill, Charley Root
and a handful of others.
Most of them have been in the
big show from 10 to Is years and
their names are as familiar in many
households as that of the family
dog or cat. That is why every new
triumph and every bitter defeat is
personal emotion shared by fans
throughout the country.
Diz Makes Stirring Debut.
Ole Diz, for instance. started a
National League game Sunday for
the first time this season and manu-
factured stirring Shit, 40, Shut
out of the Boston Bees for the
Chicago Cubs.
Dean is only % years old and this
is just his eighth season in the
majors, but he is throWback to
that other era when pitchers could
and did win 80 games in a season.
There is no likelihood that he ever
will do that again, but he showed
that the Cubs still stand to get
lot of good from his s185,000 pitch
ing arm.
Lefty Grove, who came into the
American League Is years ago and
still takes a turn once week for
the Boston Red SoX, beSted Bridges
in what was a hot pitching battle
for five innings-until some of the
younger Red Seekers cut loose for
an 8-3 rout which was Detroit's
fifth straight setback. Grove got
himself home run to enhance the
occasion and since he didn't get an
extra base blow all last season, this
was the real treat.
The loss was Bridges first against
five victories this year.
Gomez, Hubbell Chased.
Lyons, even more of a veteran
inasmuch as he joined the Chicago
White Sox in 1928 after his gradual
tion from Baylor, won a 10-inning,
80. struggle from Washington.
Gomez was batted out by the
Cleveland Indians in the sixth, so it
was Hadley, an American Lacquer
since 1927, who got, credit for the
1876 victory when the New York
Yankees own lusty swatters got busy
for their 18th consecutive victory.
Hubbell also was chased yesterday
and was charged with the New York
Giants Al defeat at Pittsburgh.
The 'meal-ticket" was valid for two
innings, but the Pirates punched
three of their runs in the third and
that was that.
The st. Louis Cardinals and Gin
cinnati Reds made it unanimous for

their neck and neck race in the Ma

lively, the Phillies, So, and the
Brooklyn Dodgers, To.
