Geén. O'Ryan ross-examination was sharp and several times he de- clined to permit Forbes to supple- ment his direct answers, “Can’t 1 answer these questions in my own way?"' asked Forbes. “You have answered,” O'Ryan sald, nd I don't want you taking up the committee'y time making stump spedches.” Glven Right to Explain. ‘“I think Col. Forbes should be al- lowed to explain his direct answers,” sald Chairman Reed, “but the expla- nation should not be an argument.” “No argument, Mr. Chairman,” said Forbes. He waw being cross-questioned about the employment of Mathew O'Brien, & San Franclsco architect, who pre- pared the unused plans of the Liver- more, Calif., hospital. Forbes said he employed O'Brien; that President Harding had told him to gat & competent architect suitable to the California congressional dele- gation. . “And I presume that's the way the overnment employes have been se- ected since tlie days of Andrew Jack- son,” cbserved Senator Reed. Plans Were Approved. Forbes satd there had been some report about the alleged incompetency &f O'Brien as an architect for hospl- tals, but added that his plans had bean approved by the medical division and others charged with such respon- sibllity. g The witness sald he mnever was “strong for” the appointment of an arc ct {or Livermore. “Do you now swear that you think the appointment of an outside are t for Livermore was justified? asked O'Ryan. “I canuot answer that question, suid the witness, but.O'Ryan pressed 1m. “Doex the question embarrass you?” he uuked. Embarrass me:" Forbes exclaimed. “Certainly. not. I think I 1 rigkt, let it go,” said O'Ryan. Admits Pink Slips Used. Asked about the testimony of Di- rector Frank T Hines of the bureau, ke camec into office the u confusion because of the pink slips” to rush through ms of certain veterans., Korbes said the work was not in confusion, but that “pink slips” were used “They always were used.” he adde “I think they use ‘white slips' now. The witness said he could not re- call who told him this. O'Ryan read a report from E. A. Graupner, of San Francisco, that he and John R. Quinn and other of- ficlals of the American Legion had advised Forbes of charges of cor- ruption in connection with Liver- more. The document declared there were reports that L. B Johuson, who 80ld the site, had sald he had to pay out $25,000 of the purchase price to be sent to Washington. The report also referred to a rumor that the $25.000 was to be split be- tween Forbes and Charles F. Cramer, general counsel of the bureau, and that 1060 cases of wine were to be sent to Washington for Forbes, Cra- mer and an unnamed third person. Forbes said that to the best of his knowledge and belief the American Legion officers had made no such re- port to him. Pressed by O'Ryan for a more definite answer, he repiied: “That was more than a year ago, you say. I have been ill for months with fever and unconsciousness much of the time. You can't expect my mind to be as clear as yours.” Oh, never mind about all that,” said_O'Ryan. Quericd Abont Diverce. “On October € last was an action brought against you In Seattle, Wash.?” avked O'Ryan. “What kind of an action?" Forbes inquired. “A divorce action.” “1 think that's utterly immaterial objected Easby-Smith, ¢ make it material” satd O'Ryan. “What s the materiality?" asked Senator Reed. “1 don’t want to disclose my pur- pose to the witness,” sald O'Ryan.

He pointed out that 60 per cent of the people of the country could leave their homes at noon one day and be in Cleveland in time for breakfast the next. The city’'s auditorium will seat 12,500 pereons, ‘he sald, and added that by “violating the fire and poilce regula- tions a little bit" that figure would be materially increased, He guaran- teed in the name of Cleveland $125,000 to defray necessary expenses and| the use of the auditorium, making the net financlal guarantee $143,000.

The theory back of the differentia- tion between an earned income and what {8 technically called an unearned Income Is that a doctor or a lawyer or a bookkeeper or a clerk works year In and year out just as a mechanic or a laborer using up vital energy, mental or physical. When that indi- vidual gets old and his strength has been sapped he cannot pass on his clrnlnfi power to his children. He is through. Such & man, however, today pays just as much taxes if hix wages amount to $2,000 a for instance, a4 does a man who has accumulated through Inheritance or otherwise a capital.fund of $33,500 and has invewt- ed it at 6 per cent.

It can be passed on for generations and each year, if properly invested, it can oarn 6 per cent. But the lavyer or the doctor or the actor or the high- grade ealesman or any one else who by years of study and invcstment of time and money in the getting of a good education finally manages to reach & point in‘life where $12,000 & year s earned can only have that in- come during the years of his effi- clency.
