?I of the attempt being made to
jam through the detectives' bill this
year in the closing hours of the ses
sioi . as was done last year, hc- said:
would imagine tha tthe detec?
tives would have learned a tesson from
the, facl thal the Maj or vetoed the bill
lasl year. And here I want to say that
1 am still investigating the slush fund
raised bj the detectives last year. I
am still trying to subpoaa Jack Kleist,
who, it was testified by the detectives
who raised thi slush fund, handled
ji] ti.OOO of the money. Kleist has
I to New Rochelle and therefore is
outsidc the jurisdiction of the City of
NTew York. Last week 1 asked the Cor
porati .n Counsel to give me an opinion
as to whether my subpee is good out?
sidc of the City of New York. [f it is
I can get hira bei'ore me without any
great delay."
$750 00.J Fund Reported
Last year, when the bill was being
h:n led around to vai ious n embers of
'" ? 1 ''!?: iture. th report was current
that if the bill became law thp de
vjitives w uid raise by asscssment a
fund ot ?750,000. It was this talk
which caused Senat >rs Harriss and
Smith to drop the bill, and after they
refus.:d to have anything to do with
the measure, Senator Lusk took it up.
Senator Lusk at the time of the^x
pose said that he introduced the nill
because he felt grateful to D.ctectivea
Gegan and Browne for the assistanco
they rendered him while he was in?
vestigating tho activities of radical
groups. He also ttstified that he had
heard talk of a slush fund in connec
tion with the bill, and had told Browne
and Gegan, who brought him the in
formation, and who credited other de?
tectives with the talk, that hc would
have nothing t - do with the legislation
if any m mey was used.
Senator Lusk did not bring the mat
ter officially to the attcntion of the
Legislature, nor did he cai! the attcn?
tion of the District Attorney of Alhany
County to the alleged slush fund
charges.
Kepublicans Refuse to Act
Rebublican members of the Legis
lature wh i were asked to introduce
the bill this year said they Informed
the detectives that they would noO
handle the bill. In each instance the
detectives informed the Republican
Assemblymen that thc bill would be in?
troduced in the Senate by Senator
Sheridan.

Unanimously 'ndorsed
The bill introduced in Congress yea?
terday had the'unanimous appr
ers, four Republicans
and three Democrats, Mr. Lasker de
TVis incorporates the
gestion of President Harding, and will
form the hasis of hearings before the
Senate Coi ... nd tl
House Merohant Marine Comrr tl
Mr. Lasker was asked if any
ex-German ships would be re
tioned for operation with the Levia?
than. He replied that the board had no
intention of refitting any more, and
that these would be offered for
sale in their presont condition. The
Leviathan, he added. either would be
sold by the time she was repaired in
1923 or would be operated by
United States Lines. The lir.er would
not be a'.located to any other companj
for service, be sai l.
fVsked if the T'nited Stato3 Linea
was a paying cr.terprise. the chairman
a d t waa if the receipts and expen
ditures were balanced, but not when
? ? ; as a cemmercinl b-.isiness. .\ th

preciatic n.
Advertislng Snccessful
Mr. Lasker remarked that tho result
of the advertislng campaign fi
United States Lines had been ao suc
cessful that the board was now con
sidering cutting the expenditure in
half. He said that from preseni pro -
pects the accommodations of the c ?.
pany for the entire summer apparentlj
were oversold. This did not meai tl i
the company would have large |
he s.'iid. declaring that the cost of
operation under the United Stat
was so much greater than under for
eign liags that it could not show a
pr ??it at current rates even when run
ning full.
Mr. Lasker described as "bunk dis
tl uted by foreign lir.es" the state
ment that American trave'ers did not
prefer American ships. All of the re
turna from the advertising campaign
of the board. he said, show that A
icans greatly prefer to go on ships
under their own fiags when the serv
ices are equal.
The conference with Mr. "Franklin, !
Mr. Lasker said, were concerned only"
with detaila of tho release of the '
Leviathan, upon which the Interna
tional Mercantile Marine Company
he'd an option for operation when she
was rec6nditioned. The meeting with
Mr. Fleishhacker was for a discussion
of some details with reerard to the
proposed company on ihe Paciflc
Assures Coast Pool
'If the President's plan gocs through
in substance," Mr. Lasker said. "we
are certain that the $,10,000,000 com?
pany on the Pacific Coast will bo I
formed and will bviy a number of our
fast passenger sbip3. provided some
one else doesn't offer a higbtjr price. !
For the same reason we will have no ;
ditficulty in Anding buyers for the
ships now operated by tiie 1'nitid
States Linea. If we do not seli the
line as a complete enterprise the ves- j
Bels will be sold individually."
Mr. Lasker pointed out that the bill J
introduced yesterday gave the Ship-!
pinjc Board wide discretion in npply- i
ing the subsidy, with some authority ;
tb. raise or decrease the payments ac-1
cording to the needs of different lines. j
The board* also will havo the power
to withhoja funds from companies |
which it believes do not comply with
the rcQuirements of the law.
