Relief Version. By the Associated Press. COLUMBUS, Ohio, March 21— Gov. Martin L. Davey's chief patron- age dispenser was summoned today before a grand jury asked to investi- gate an alleged “corrupt” alliance between politics and relief in Ohio. Behind him stood the Democratic delegation in the Ohio Legislature with an appeal to President Roosevelt “to right the wrong which has been done our Governor” in his bitter con- troversy with Harry L. Hopkins, Fed- eral relief administrator. Francis W. Poulson, Democratic State chairman, answered the grand jury’s summons after maxing e - scathing attack on Hopkins who pre- cipitated the inquiry by submitting what he said was “incontrovertible evidence” that firms seeking relief contracts were ‘“shaken down” for $8,000 to help pay off the Governor's campaign deficit. Says President Betrayed. Poulson charged that Republicans in high Government offices “have be- trayed the President,” and named Hopkins as one “who could be ex- pected to tear down the Democratic party.” Democratic legislators aligned themselves solidly behind Davey, con- demning unanimously in a caucus “the gratuitous insult directed at our chief executive” and pledging ‘“our allegiance in his courageous fight egainst waste and inefficiency in the administration of relief.” “As loyal Democrats,” said their resolution, “and as supporters of Pres- ident Roosevelt, we do hereby call upon the President of the United States to make full and complete in- vestigation, to rjght the wrong which has been done our Governor and to forthwith do the things that are so urgently necessary to eliminate waste and inefficiency, and to terminate the inhuman practices of mistaken agents of the Relief Commission.” Others Before Jury. Accompanying Poulson before the grand jury were Willam R. McNa- mara, suspended director of the Sur- plus Commodities Division of the State Relief Commission; two other sus- pended relief employes, business men who contributed to the Democrats’ “war chest” and Common Pleas Judge George B. Nye of Waverly. McNamara and the two other em- ployes have admitted soliciting po- litical contributions from concerns which did business with the Relief Commission. Judge Nye, McNamara's affidavit said, saw him turn over $5,150 to a member of the Governor's Campaign Committee. However, Mc- Namara in a statement today, said he was mistaken. OHIO SHAKE-UP STUDIED. Department of Justice Probing State Relief Situation. By the Associated Press. Attorney General Cummings said today the Department of Justice is looking into the recent Ohio relief shake-up “to see if any Federal laws had been violated.” The Attorney General tomorrow will entertain an Ohio delegation of 10 legislators. They will inspect the Department of Justice as a pattern for a similar Ohio institution. The House, meanwhile, had a brief | flare-up of discussion over the Ohio relief situation, but it ended in jocular argument over the political affiliation of Hopkins, The discussion ended, after some scattered Democratic applause at the identification of Hopkins as a Re- publican. There was no talk at all about the merits or demerits of any of the actions taken either by Hop- kins, Davey or the Ohio Assembly. EAGER FOR OPERATION SAN JOSE, Calif.,, March 21 (®).— | Impatient to go East for an operation | that will right his inverted stomach, | Jimmie Neilson, 13, said yesterday he will be ready to leave as soon as the | money is raised for the journey. When Dr. Philemon Edwards Trues- | dale, famous Massachusetts surgeon, wrote Jimmie's parents, Mr. and Mrs. | D. M. Nellson, he would perform the operation free of charge, a drive was started by a service club to finance the boy’s trip. Today the fund totaled $156. Gov. Martin L. Davey of Ohio called Harry L. Hopkins, Federal relief administrator, & “base and foul character assassin” before a joint session of the Legislature yesterday after filing a charge of criminal libel against Hopkins. The latter said he had "unmtmvnublo evidence” that business firms seeking relief contracts were “shaken down" for $8,000 by Davey’s Campaign Committee. Art Mystery —A. P. Photo. Clue Found Vouches for Authenticity of Birch Paintings at Naval Academy. Special Dispatch to The Star. BOSTON, March 18 (NAANA)— Capt. H. E. Cook, U. S. N., stationed at Charlestown Navy Yard, has opened a new angle of investigation in the artistic mystery engaging Rear Ad- miral David Foote Sellers, superin- tendent of the Naval Academy at An- mnapolis. ‘The mystery concerns & picture, hanging in the academy, signed Thomas Birch, 1829, and purporting to be a scene in the historic sea fight August 19, 1812, between the Con- stitution and the Guerriere. An exact- ly similar picture, signed Thomas ‘Birch, 1813, is part of the Herbert L. Pratt collection in the Brooklyn Mu- seum, and it is supposed to be a scene in the fight October 25, 1813, between the United States and the Mace- donian. Admiral Sellers saw a repro- duction of this painting in a news- paper series and started an investi~ gation. Believes Them Birch Copies. The academy’s painting was do- uated by Mrs. Caroline C. Forbush of West Newton, Mass. Mrs, Forbush, widow of Merrill A. Forbush, died in 1923. Thus, inquiry into the history of the picture she presented to An- napolis is virtually impossible, but Capt. Cook believes he can furnish Special for Thurs., Fri,, and Sat. SERVA STAND Chromium, Ivory and C h romh Green and Chromium, GARRISON’S, Inc. 1218 E St. N.W. Natl. 1586 Oven Evenings Until 10 P.M.

His be- Hef is that the Annapolis paintings are Birch copies of canvases in the possession of the Historical Society at New Haven, Conn., confirming his view that the sea fight depicted by Birch is that between the Constitu- tion and the Querriere, not the United States-Macedonian engagement. “When I was commandant of mid- -hlpm-n at Annapolis Iram 1923 to 1925, Capt. Cook sald, “I was much interested in the pictures hanging in the office, a series of four oil paint- ings, portraying stages in the encount- er between the Constitution and the Guerfinra “The logs of the old Navy vessels Thrilling features in the new ings are presumably the originals, or, to be precise, the first paintings made. “These paintings were presented tb the soclety by the wife of a former mayor of New Haven.
