Latker Denies Charges.
The shipping hoard, Mr, La.sker
wrote, never spent "one cent" for any
of the improper purpose enumerated
in Senator King' resolution. He
added, however, that member of the
board were unanimous in aup'wrt of
the milmidy hill, and, therefore, when
called tiporhail always availed them-
delve of the opportunity to express
their views before civic bodies and
elewhcre. Sessions of the two com
mitters of the board, which have
been holding hearings in various
port cities, he said, had afforded
many pportunitiw tor an expres
sion of individual views, but he de
nied that the committees had been
partial in taking testimony.
Some charges had been made, Mr.
Lasker continued, that the board was
spending money illegally In the so
licitation of cargoes. To these he
replied that two men, "whos pas
sion it is to establish the American
merchant marine," had been going
about the country soliciting cargoes
and the board had paid tbeir ex
penses "to the extent o( .'several
hundred dollars, hut on a strictly
legal per diem basis." ,

few minutes. Senators had speeches
they simply ha dto get out of their
nystems and although the minute
hand of the venerable senate clock
tugged stubbornly to go on its way,
Mr. Locffler managed finally to force
it back a sufficient space to enable
them to complctce their oratory.
The. Dyer anti-lynclung bill went
into the discard aloud with the sen
ate's unfinished business, the Llberlan
$5,000,000 loan, sponsored by the ad
ministration, also went into the dis
card. Senator Sheppard, Texas, dem
ocrat, had th last word. He got
leave to publish a statement on "the
oueration of orohibition," not with
standing waggish whispers of "when
did it begin to operate?"
President Harding occupied his
room off the senate chamber while the
session was ending, following the cus
tom of being on hand to sign
eleventh hour bills. He shook more
hands than he signed hills.
During the session 295 laws were
enacted, and appropriations totaling
$.1,751,917,629.14 were made; $309,
935,277.51 les than the estimates.
