New York, May 29.—The affairs of the International Sunshine society, of which Mrs. Cynthia Westover Alden is president, are likely to be in the hands of Attorney General Carmody before many days. On June 16 the state board of chgrities will receive a report from its special committee appointed to in- vestigate the soclety after its financial irregularities, its misrepresentations, its misappropriations and neglect of blind babies were revealed some time ago, Committee Framing Report. The special committee that liam R. Stewart, chairman; Herman Ridder and Dr. J. Richard Kevin, all of New York, where the society’s most | extensive operations have been. There have been fourteen lively hearings at the state board of charities office in New York. Mrs. Alden has been present at a good many of these. She has been represented by Martin W. Littleton, or his associates, at all of these meetings, and the lawyers have made a hard fight to clear the organization of the serious charges against it, Just how severely the state board of charities will deal with the society L is impossible to learn at this time. But it has been a foregone sion since the soclety's involved af- fairs became public that as soon as the board has submitted its report the attorney general will be obliged to press the case against the society. If the attorney general takes up the matter it will be to force the society to make restitution of misappropriat- ed funds and probably to have the Sunshine charter revoked on the ground that the methods of the so- ciety have been improper and its ac- tivities undesirable, Inquiry Most Thorongh. Robeft W. Hebberd was asked con- cerning the report today and he said “It would be improper at this time to reveal the contents of the report. There have been fourteen hearings. Mrs. Alden has been properly repre- sented at all of these. The investi- gation of the society's hooks and its affairs has been most thorough. The final report has been delayed be- cause so many hearings were neces- tary and it was impossible always for Mra. Alden’s representatives and the is | framing the report consists of Wil- conclu- l { M. ¥. M. board’'s committee to find dates con- venient for both.” “Does the committee find that the mismanaged affairs of the society have resuited in graft?” was asked. VICTIM OF HAZING BULLET SUCCUMBS | “The report will set forth all the | facts,” was the answer. To Account for $1,000,000. What the International Sunshine society has been asked to do in ‘the | course of the state board's investiga- tion is to account for the '$1,000,000 which Mrs. Alden admitted the so- clety had collected blind babies. One of the most strik- ing examples of the society’'s mis- managements and misappropriations is in the case of the Henry Howard Paul endowed bed for needlewomen. Henry Howard Pau] died in Lon- | don and left a bequest of $5,000 for the use of women who earned their living by sewing. The Sunshine so- ciety informed the counsel for this state that they were qualified to ac- cept and administer this endowment, and he thereupon turned the money over to the society after it was agreed to hold the fund for the purpose. The bed was never found- ed by the soclety as agreed, and when | Mrs. Alden was asked what disposi- tion had been made of the money she made the same answer that she wa obliged to make numerous times un- | der cross-examination: “Why, we have spent it long since,” Only One “BROMO QUININE” Te get the genuine, call for full name.
