(Continued From First Paj had found that there is a general mis- understanding of the situation. Recalling that he”made a full state- the investigating committee % regarding the employ- ment of Mr. Eyanson, Senator Bingham | said that during the time he was on the witness stand there were frequent implications “that I was concealing something.” He charged that members of the committee made use of “police court methods” in cross-examining him. Senator Bingham said that some of his friends were surprised that he had appeared before the committee at all, in view of what he sald was the unusual manner in which the commit- tee was made up. “I had not supposed that there was so much unfairness in a group of Sen- ators,” Senator Bingham declared, re- ferring to the lobby investigating com- mittee. political purposes they would go so far as they did to injure a New England Senator' and an administration porter.” sup- Blaine is Aroused. It was at this point in his speech that he aroused Senator Blaine, Repub- lican, of Wisconsin, a member of the lnvllfllltmg committee, After assert- ing that while he was on the witness stand he had been asked the same questions over and over by his cross- e iners, Senator Bingham added: 1t is &’ current report that one Sen- | ator took a Capitol policeman jast Sum- mer and used his services to drive his automobile as chauffeur to a Western Slfi(e while on the Government pay Toll” | Senator Blaine, sitting only a few feet {away from the Connecticut Senator, in- terrupted him, saying, “It is very essen. tial now that you name that Senator.’ Senator Bingham replied that he had not referred to a Senator by name, but the Wisconsin Senator repeated his de- mand. Senator Bingham replied that it was Senator Blaine. Promises to Answer. The Wisconsin Senator answer in my own turn,” and took his seat, while Senator Bingham continued with his speech, describing what he said was the unusual procedure followed in selecting the membership of the lobby investigating committee. Senator Bingham charged that the lobby investigating committee had been “framed up 4 to 1 ary ministration Senator and against administration interest.” He sald that on the committee were two Democrats, two anti-admicistration Republicans and one regular Republican. The two | Democrats are Senator Caraway, chair- man, and Senator Walsh of Montana: the ti-administration Republicans are Senators Borah and Blaine and the regular blican is Senator Robin- son of In a. Would Change Line-Up. Senator Bingham insisted that there should have been two regular Repub- licans on the committee, two Demo- crats and one anti-administration Re- Ppublican. “Wher. the lobby committee got be- fore it one known lobbyist,” said Sena- tor Bingham, “a paid lobbyist and well as a lobibyist, no questions were flzd of him in his capacity as a'lob- yist.” g Sepator Bingham said that he re- ferred to “Cooley, business manager of ‘:lhe Massachugsetts Pisheries Associa- i ton.” “The only ‘Interest the committee had in him,” said Senator Bingham, sar- castically, “was whether he had been prevented from seeing me, from annoy- ing me. Cooley testified under oath that he had not seen me. As a_matter of fact, he sent in for me and I came out of the committee meeting and he talked to me for some time. “When he became emphatic, not_to say abusive, as lobbyists sometimes be- come, I told him I did not care to hear anything more from him. I told Eyan- wnmthntxdidnot.wuhwmhlm again. Attempt to Intercede. “Later Cooley sent an old friend of mine to see me, asking him to intercede for him. My attitude toward Cooley was the same as that toward a large number of lobbyists who waste the time of the Senators. “But the committee was far more in- terested in dargaging a Senator, in play- ing politics and ‘making it more dif- ficult for the New England laboring man who had been out of work to ob- tain rates that might give him back a job than it was in lnvcstlalfinl a lob- byist. The committee had Mr. Eyan- son on the stand for 3!, hours. They knew he was not a lobbyist in the ac- cepted sense of that term. While he was in my employ he never approached any Senator as a lobbyist. I had sup- posed I had sufficient integrity and judgment to decide whether or not a proposed rate increase in the tariff was just after I had the information. “Those who oppose me politically say there is something corrupt in my ac- tions. In the report submitted by the committee to the Senate an effort is being made to drag my friend J. Henry Rorabach, Republican national commit- teeman from Connecticut, into this mess which exists in the mind of Chair- man Caraway. “Nasty Insinuation.” “If ever there was a nasty insinua- tion, if ever there was evidence that politics were involved, 1t is found in the dragging of my friend, Mr. Rora- bach, into this. 1 was staying at Mr. Rorabach’s house and I wanted to see E. Kent Hubbard, president of the Con- necticut Manufacturers’ Association, in regard to obtaining a man who could give me information I needed in con- nection with the tariff. It was more convenient to meet in Mr. Rorabach's office than anywhere else. “Mr. Rora- bach turned over an office to Mr. Hub- bard and me. He was not present. Had Mr. Rorabach been present then there would havesaeen a howl. “It is ‘s case,” sald Senator Bingham, “that you are damned if you do or damned if you don’t with this t- tee. It is going to get you if it can. That is the attitude of this committee.” Senator Bingham referred to the $1,000 check which he had personally sent to Mr. Eyanson as recognition of his services in Washington to him. He said that Eyanson was a $10,000 a year a month. He sald he had sent him $1,000 to pay him for his services in ‘ashington. “Marked” for Attack. “Had I not sent him a cent.” said Senator Bingham, “this committee would have, {ll.ud a finger of scorn against me for accepting all his hard vc:r‘: and not giving him any compen- sa Every little bit of testimony, tinued Senator Bingham, “has twisted con= been Ay p] made a corrupt bargain; that there was something corrupt back of the employ- ment of Eyanson.

U. S. Grant wed and lived in 1848 is practically a dilapidated ruin, due to the lack of funds for its upkeep. Efforts to restore and refurnish the building by the Grant-Dent Memorial Association have failed, due to the inability to raise enough money to pay off the montgage. A group of St. Louls civic leaders are endeavoring to clear the title and open It to the public as a memerial to Gen. Grant and Miss Julia Dent, whom he mar- e mansion, in its dingy rroundings and boarded-up windows, —Wide World Photo. clined to be interrupted in making his statement to the Senate. He pointed out that he ‘had sat and listened to Caraway on Saturday without any in- terruption. Repufations Targets. “Every effort,” continued Senator Bingham, “has been made to besmirch my reputation and Mr. Eyanson's. Senator Bingham said Mr. Eyanson had been told not to give out any in- formation regarding what transpired in the finance committee meetings. He said that he believed Eyanson gave no information. Yet, he said, the lobby committee had made much of & memo- random written by a Mr. Wychet, ui employe of the Connecticut Manufac turers’ Association, for Eyanson under date of August 30, referring to a tele- phone conver:rt!on he had had with certain manufacturers of firearms. Senator Bingham pointed out the lobby committee knew, although it held that it was obvious that Wychet had infor- mation of what happened in the secret sessions of the finance committee, that 12 days before August 30 every rate in the tariff bill had been given by the finance committee to the minority members of that committee and to the public. “Furthermore,” said Senator Bing- ham, “the committee is pleased to think that a fight went on in the secret session of the finance committee be- cause of this memorandum. It is merely another effort tp tarnish my reputation. Committee Fight Denled. “As & matter of fact, no roll call was taken in the committee on these rates, and, as far as I can remember, there was no fight in the committee over the duty on gun barrels, to which this Wychet memorandum refers.” The Wychet memorandum referred to.the fact that the duty on gun barrels had not been increased, in accordance with the wishes of Connecticut manu- facturers, although Senator = Smoot, chairman of the finance committee, and others had favored the increase and Senator Bingham had been against it. Senator Bingham said that Wychet, | in his conversation over the telephone with Connecticut fire arms manufac- turers and in his memorandum to Eyanson, had merely been guilty of an indiscretion of use. Such an indiscre- tion, Senator Bingham sald, as is fre- quently committed “by friends who claim more for us than is justified. Senator Bingham then referred to a letter writtén by President Hubbard of the Connecticut Manufacturers’ Asso- ciation to Eyanson while Eyanson was in Washington. He said that Senator Caraway had referred “so gently, as in his inimitable style,” to this letter on Saturday. Tenure of Office Topic. In the letter Mr. Hubbard told Ey: son he wished him to pave the way with Senator Bingham regarding his (Eyanson's) tenure of office with Bing- ham. Hubbard also said in the letter that Eyanson had done “more than we ined for in the beginning.” It is the letter that has been made much of by the Senate lobby committee. Senator Bingham told the Senate Mr. Hubbard, who wrote the letter, “was #& distinguished Democrat, nomi- nated at one time for lieutenant gov- ernog of Connecticut on the Democratic ticket and mentioned for the Senate when I first ran for the Senate.” Senator Bingham said that Chair- man Caraway implied there had been some kird of corrupt bargain between Hubbard and Senator Bingham: that the effort had been to “damage my reputation and to seek to have me come out of this investigation covered witn as_much political slime as possible.” Referring to Mr. Hubbard's request to Eyanson to_pave the way for him with Senator Birgham, Senator Bing- ham sald Eyanson had been expected to end his work in Washington and to return long before. “That was too honest. for the com- mittee,” said Serator Bingham, “and therefore it did not believe it. As a matter of fact Mr. Hubbard had tried to get Mr. Eyanson to return to Con- necticut because he was needed there. Inneuendo Is Scored. Senator Bingham charged that his crities attempted by innuendo ‘to attach significance to the statement by Mr. Hubbard in which he told Mr. Eyarson he had done more than was “bargained for.” Senator Bingham declared ef- forts were made to show that some sort of corrupt bargain has been in- volved, but he declared they could not show that because there was none. | Senator Bingham said that in New England the expression “You got more than you bargained for” is frequently used, meaning you got more than you expected. He said it was sirhilar to the practice followed in the West in refer- ring to a friend who accompanies you as a “sidekick.” “Yet, Ynh‘;'ug‘:nmduuwn& ko{h ‘:?’u England intelligence if we A | me!n that a man’s friend had kicked him in the side,” Senator Bingham sald. Calls It “Inquisition.” The Connecticut Senator referred to the lobby committee as a ‘‘modern Spanish inquisition,” and said that one member shouted at him to “answer yes or n He said that when this is done in a court there is a judge to see that a witness is fairly examined, but that there was no such person to intervene e this committee. was put on the grill in order that those who oppose any increase in the tariff except for agriculture might have their way,” Senator Bingham declared. He said this session was called primarily to revise the rates on agriculture, but that Congress had been told there were also some branches of industry that needed attention. He sald that the Connecticut Manufacturers’ Association “never asked for a single unreasonable thiny Says Presence Requested. He sald that instead of raising a large sum of money or inviting* Senators to dinners, the association merely sent one of its officials here “at my request to give me information I desired. As he brought his speech to a close, Senator Bingham spoke with increasing feeling. seu;n‘lwr Bingham declared that in the past representatives of farmers were rmitted to write actual clauses form- g part of farm legislation, and that no one had ever accused them of im- proper conduct. “Why not discuss lobbyists who go about from one office to another, in- stead of this one man who never talks to_any member except me?” Senator Bingham concluded by de- claring he resented and always would resent the treatment he has received. As soon as the Connecticut_Senator took his seat, Senator Blaine arose and replied to the report that he had allow- ed a Capitol policeman to drive his automobile West last Summer while on the pay roll. Senator Blaine declared that no Capltol policeman drove his car because he drove it himself. “Protested Too Much.” “The Senator from Connecticut takes }snma:l( ;llw'geth(‘r too seriously,” said enator Blaine, “He protested entirel; too much.” = J Senator Blaine charged that an effort was being made “to drag a smoke screen across a slimy, dirty trail, mapped out designedly from the office of the Sena- tor from Connecticut to the office of the gonnemml Manufacturers’ Associa- on.” He then defended the methods used by the committee in cross-examining Senator Bingham, declaring the Con- necticut Senator had “doggedly refused to answer questions.” “And so whatever has befallen the Senator, he alone is responsible for it,” Senator Blaine continued. “This whole matter was conceived in secret and con- ducted in secret. Mr. Eyanson was on three pay rolls, ostensibly as clerk to the committee on insular affairs, osten- sibly as clerk to the Senator from Con- necticut, but in fact an employe of the Connecticut Manufacturers’ Associa- tion. “The Senator from Connecticut placed on Mr. Eyanson an official cloak that permitted him to go into the secret meetings of a part of the finance com- mittee.” Senator Blaine asserted that Senator Bingham was not an important fac- tor in the situation, but that the im- portant question is to decide “whether the method of writing this tariff bill is to dominate final action on the bill.” In referring to tor Bingham, Senator Blaine said: “Notwithstanding the fact that he has worn the and gown of a great university, that does| not place him above others who have lw%l; their position through toil and abor.” In conclusion, Senator Blaine said he does not charge there was any corruption. Senator Caraway, Democrat, of Arkansas, and chairman of the lobby committee, took the floor next and be- gan by saying that Senator Bingham had made the “same defense made by everybody caught in an embarrassing situation.” He told the Senate that Senator Bing- ham was “not dragged before the com- mittee.” He saild he and Senator Bing- ham had had conversation about the forthcoming hearing but could not agree, and that later a request had come to the committee that sen‘wr Bingham wanted to appear. “We even waived the formality of an oath,” Senator Caraway sald. Conduct Held Justified. Senator Caraway said that if Senate investigating committees merely ac- cepted the statements made by persons under investigation that they had done nothing wrong, investigations might Jjust as well not be held. Under such conditions, he said, the Teapot Dome investigation would have come to noth- g. The Jobby committee chairman said that Bingham had charged unfair treatment by Democratic and anti- administration Republican Senators on the committee. he ' chairman called attention to the fact that Senator Rob- inson of Indiana, a regular Republican member, had characterized the action of Senator Bingham in having Eyanson placed on the Senate pay roll, and then having him turn the Government mon- ey over to another man, as “falsifica- tion of the record.” At this point Senator Cataway paused to demand that any regular Republican Senator on the floor, who approved Senator Bingham's course in the em- ployment of Eyanson, should “stand up. No one stood up. Senator Caraway Halloween Flowers Pompon Mums, 50c a bunch and up. Specimen Chrysanthemums in various colors. Halloween center-pieces, $1.50 up. Special Roses, $1.50 doz.

But Sena- tor Bingham said nothing and Senator Caraway proceeded with his address. He sald that Senator Bingham had been “whining about his treatment by the committee.” Senator Caraway said that this was “so undignified” that he did not care to comment on it. He said it was the kind of a defense that a man made when he had no other defense. “The Senator from Connecticut,” con- tinued Senator Caraway, “has not said that these things are untrue which are in the record, but that we are preju- diced against him. That is the best defense he has been able to think of, although he has been thinking about it for a week. Whatever is found in the record of the committee comes from his friends. They wrote the record of which Senator Bingham now complains. It was difficult to get information from them, it is true. Apparently New Eng- land has idioms of speech all its own. Allegation Denied. “The Senator from Connecticut says that we tried to drag in Mr. Roroba ‘The committee did not do that; Sena- tor Bingham sent a letter to Mr. Hub- bard asking him to get in touch through ‘J. Henry.'! We did not know who ‘J. Henry' was, but a witness told us that he was the Republican boss of Connecticut. Senator Bingham said we wanted to discredit him. There is nothing we can do which can discredit him. What he has done himself has discredited him.” Senator Caraway said that he per- sonally had a high regard for the peo- ple of New England and that the com- mittee was not attempting to discredit New England through attacking Sena- tor Bingham. “I belleve New England will react unfavorably to his conduct,” said Sen- ator Caraway. Chairman Caraway said that the evi- dence before the committee was that the members of the Connecticut Manu- facturers’ Assoclation- had believed it valuable to them to have a representa- tive in Senator Bingham'’s office during the consideration of the tariff bill and that it would be worth all it cost them. What They “Paid For.” “I am inclined to think they did get what they paid for,” sald Senator Cara- way. Senator Walsh of Montana read into the Record a long list of editorials from Republican newspapers, including the New York Herald Tribune, the Philadelphia Public Ledger and _the New York Evening Post, criticizing Sen- ator Bingham's employment of Eyan- son. He also read editorials from the Hartford Courant, the Waterbury Re- publican and the New Britain Daily Herald, all Connecticut newspapers, condemning Senator Bingham. ‘While the debate was going on Ham- ilton Holt, Democratic candidate for the Senate against Senator Bingham the last time he ran, sat in the Sen- ate gallery. He was accompanied by Mrs. Ruth Bryan Owen, a member of the House from Florida. COL. JOHN HOWARD DIES ON WEST COAST AT 60 Brother of Pension Bureau Libra- rian Expires in San Fran- cisco Hospital.
