Denies Knowledge of Fund. Gen. Crosby was asked speeifically about a pricted report that friends of the administration have been taking up 8 collection privately to feed the marchers, so N to prevent the likeli- heod of a congressional appropriation for this purpose. He said he had no | knowledge of this whatever. He said that Secretary Hurley told him nothing about it “Mr. Hurley.” he said. “merely wants to keep pested to what is going on, and I go and see him from time to time and tell him what I know. That is all there is to our conferences.” He repeated that the Commissioners had never warned the marchers to Jeave town, but had merely offered them the transportation if they wanted to g0. Now that they h: refused the offer, be said. the District as a munici- pality has withdrawn from the prob- lem, and will do no more for the marchers than it would for any group coming to Washington to petition Con- gress.
