them back from lock^ gates.
Mrs. Hauptmann spent an hour
with the botiy. “Richard, some day
your name will be cleared and those
responsible will pay. For they mur-

she said slowly.
Then she plucked a carnation from
the huge floral cross that bore her
card: “With love, Anna,” and put it

A few minutes later there was a
brief service held behind ^ locked
doors in an office of the crematory
building. The Rev. John Matthiesen
and the Rev. D. G. Werner
pledged to New Jersey^ authorities
that only the legal limit of six per
sona would 'be present before tb« open

man. 1
' Then' the casket, smI^, was trun
dled into the chapel, where a score of
Yorkville friends of the Hauptmann’s
waited. The widow sat in the front
row, weeping bitterly throughout the
German and English eulogies. At the
end she broke completely and was led
swiftly to a car while attendants
shoved the casket into an incinerator.
Lloyd FiahOr, Hauptmann’s attor
ney, was a mourner.
There were many flowers, some
from German societies in thg Bronx,
with German words lettered on the
ribbons. ' -
Officials of the crematory said they
did not know where the ashes v^ould
be sent. Temporarily, they said, they
would be put in a bronze. urn and
stored under lock and key in a con

Introducing John McCarl
There are wheel-hor-sea in the pres
ent Democratic administration, as
there were wheel-horses in previous
Republican administrations ’ who
would prefer to see a man in the
comptroller-general job that would
take a more lenient view "in the spend
ing of the taxpayers’ money. But that
is just what John McCarl has always
refused to do. He hasn’t played ball
at all the way the politicians who
were responsible for having him put
in the officei expected him to play.
The. idea of having a comptroller-
general, to see that all money spent
by the federal government was used
in-precisely the way ^congress pre-
ftcrited. that no discretion should be
allowed *to any federal officer or bu
reau and that he should be responsi
ble only to congress, was originated
by the Republican majority in con
gress during,
It came aa a result of the more or
less unregulated spending of the Wil
son administration in war time. Presi
dent Wilson vetoed the first bill cre
ating the office of eomptixdler-gener-
al, because it prohibited the srMident
from remoying Uie incumbmt from
office and gave the'executlvernb con
trol 6r supervision-of his activities.
Senator Warren G. Harding was one
of the leading advocates of the.,idea
of an independent accounting, officer.
Promptly after Mr. Harding
came president, in 1921, the office
was created by act of congress and
Mr. Harding picked John McCarl to
fill it, because McCarl had always
been a staunch Republican wheel-
horse. He had been a lawyer in Ne
braska, where be still maintains a
voting residence at McCook; he had
been secretary of the Republican con
gressional executive committee
through one or two’campaigns, and
at the time of his appointment he was
private secretary^to Senator George
W. Norris, of Nebraska.
The McCarl Shock
McCarl took'office July 1, 1921. He
had not been in office more than a
few minutes before h i s political
friends found that the expense ac
counts of Republican office-hoFders
were just as much objects of suspic
ion as if they had been presented by
Democrats; * '
For 15 years "ifvery dollar spent by
or in behalf of the federal govern
ment has had to be okayed by the
comptroller-general. He has nothing
to do with preparing the budget, but
after the items of the budget have
been ena^d into law^Jbe has every
thing to do with teeing to it that no
department, bureau <^r individual
spends more than has been specifical
ly authorized by law or spends money
appropriated . for 'one purpoe$^ for
some other purpose. There, is no ap
peal from hie decisions.
It follows that nobody knows as
much nidKrat^ IniKmiig
ernment’s cash as' doss John R. Mc
Carl. He knows every trick ever in
vented to wrangle money out of tbs
treasury without authority.
0ns reason why the publk has not
heard more of the comptroltte-gsneval
it that his conception of his duty haa
compelled him to lead almost a doia-
tered lifa, offkiaily at least He is
the hardest man in Waahingt<m to
interview. In his 15 yean of jervice
he has never once been quoted for
pobHjeation td the extmt of a ain|^
sentence. And not only new«pi*psr
men, but pobtieiaiis of all grades and
•varieties, find it i»actiotely Impossi
ble to pry thehr way into ^ office.
Guarded Hit Petititn
McCaN has aiwayt taken paint
never to expose himself to any kind
of political prettttx^ or contacts
which might, in the cate of a weak
er man, warp the fins line between
what is .right and what is politically
{i^lrmissible. He adheres riifidly to tbs
letter of the law and intists that ev.
ery other public servant do the same.
If they don't like it, let them get the
law chhaged. , , ‘ •
Mr. IteQfiH ^ only 88 irara ^
sbk that he will be, if for no other
reason than that the politicians of
his own party have discovered that
he will not play politics in public of
fice. _
In the event that a; Republican
president should be elected next Ihll,
Washington feels pretty certain that
John McCarLwill be high in the coun
cils—of—the—new—administratioiT; per
haps secretary of the treasury or di
rector of the budget.
