Witness Says He Never Saw
Money After it Was
Dumped in Floor
WASHINGTON. May 12. The
trail for the buried gold of Grover
HergdoH. draft dodger, which a
house investigating committee ia
trying to pick up, ended today in
the kitchen of the home in Phila
delphia where it was last seen by
a man who had taken it there
from the United States treasury.
James E. Romig. former police
magistrate of Philadelphia, who
came here with the slacker's
mother in 1919 to get the gold
and from whom the committee
had hoped to learn something of
its alleged burial place, declared
he never set eyes on it after It
had been dumped on the kitchen
floor.

The serious sessions of the
committee ' were upset frequently

Romig added a constant touch of
levity.. ,. ,
He was called after former
Judge John' W. Wescott, of New
Jersey, had reiterated that there
was not a word of truth in reports
that-he bad been employed as one
of BergdolPs lawyer.
i ' Two of the judge's tons, both
lawyers, and two other lawyers
associated with him, testified to
the same effect.

room and started for Germany,
when the hearing was adjourned
until tomorrow.
There was a roar of laughter
when the witness was asked if
Bergdoll had told bitn to go and
sec Harry Thaw and got Thaw's
advise as to the best alienists to
engage in proceedings involving
his sanity.
" Nothing to that." the old man
answered. "I did look around and
ask people and they told me
Thaw's doctors were all right."
Gold in Woman's Stocking
Telling of his troubles with
treasury officials who tried, he
said, to shall him off," Romig said
he first snw a part of the gold
certificates) which were exchanged
for gold at Mrs. Bergdoll's home.
The mother accompanied him to
Washington.
"Where did she carry It?" he j
said, repeating a question. "Why i
she had most of it in her stock
ings. When Grover first started to
tell bim about the buried gold.
Romig -asserted he had refused to
listen. Pressed for a more explicit
reason, he said it was none of his
business.
Ukiug for Cain Confessed
"Why." he was asked.
"Well, It's a hard thing to tell
what's in my mind." and Romig
joined in the laughter.
Asked about the stop over at
the eRrgdoll home, in the custody
of two sergeants, from whom the
prisoner escaped. Romig said that
the gin, about which there has
been much testimony suddenly ap
peared in the pool room as if by
magic. He denied he had taken
It there, adding that he "would
not have carried it that far."

Fervent Prayers and
R'
EAMS have Iecn written
about the irtanortancc of
; roperly packing gotxls for ex
port, still American manufac
turers in many instances fail to
ncct the requirements and in
ronscqucncc jeopardize and not
nfrcquently lose a trade foot
hold pained only after the great
est, effort. Packing is slighted
ynly at the peril of the shipper.
The predominant American
tendency is to pack too heavily;
to try to fend too much in a
single package. And to pack
this too lightly, insofar as secur
ity is concerned . Shipping froni
Chicago to San Francisco, where
possibly no change of carrier is
encountered en route, is Vastly
different from shipping from
Chicago to Timbuctoo, where
part way it is water, part way
rail and part way overland
transportation by caravan.
The manufacturer should
know intimately every diffi
culty to be encountered cn
route by his wares before he
ships them- He should pack
accordingly. In this way, only,
can safe delivery be insured
without damage. '
Transportation methods vary
widely in these different foreign
lands. Most cf them are dc
'ficicnt in facilities for handling
extremely heavV packages.
Many have no railroads to the
interior and few have adequate
river transportation. Much
must go by carrier, human or
animal. Necessarily in such
cases packages should be com
paratively small and light for
easy handling. Where vehicles
are used they arc usually cum
bersome and rudefjr built. Here
and there the motor truck is
being introduced, but not gen
?rall. Human carriers prevail in
many sections of Afnca, and in
our own Philippines goods for
many interjor points are trans
ported by women carriers, who
take surprisingly heavy burdens
through the jungle slung upoji
their backs and supported by
straps over. the. tqps of. then
heads. The women , of the
Angolot tribe are the champion
carriers of the islands. "
Practically all. freight for the
interior of Korea is handled by
pack horses, the wiry little
Korean ponies being tremendouj
burden bearers. Wagon trains
traverse the endless Siberian
plains distributing American
gcHds at the widely separated
ii i i r
and railroad. Prairie schooner-
like two wheeled carts, ox drawn,
