AS THE |. ". W.
In Protesting Search Under Esp

Unconstitutional
THRESHING OUT PROCESS
Judge Lands Considers Right of
Federal Attorney to Enter
Private Vault
THREsHING OUT PROCESS

chicago, iii, Feb. I. Further
search for letters and documents in
the vault of Henry Veeder, genera
counsel for Swift & Company, for use
as evidence in the federal trade com.
missions investigation of the meat
packing industry, was suspended to-
day while an important legal battle
was waged before Judge Lands in the
United States District court to deter
mine the future course of the gov
ernment's inquiry.
Seeks to Quash Writ.
Today Attorney John J. Healey. rep
resenting Henery Veeder, forced an
immediate hearing on the validity of
the search warrant issued by Judge
Lands under section of the federal
espionage law by filing a formal mo-
ton to quash the writ and compel the
government to return the letters and
papers taken from the Veeder vault.
This move came rs surprise to the
government lawyers who had pre-.
pared to argue against a temporary
stay.
The packers attorneys, in their mo-
ton to quash the search warrant, at
tackled the constitutionality of the
search and seizure section of the fed.
eral espionage law under which the
government recently raided the var
ious headquarters of the l. w. W.
throughout the country.
The Important Points
Among the more important points
made in the arguments against the
legality of the writ were:
That the search and seizure section
Of the federal espionage law is inval-
i'd for the reason that it violates the
fourth and fifth sections of the consti-
tuition Of the United States.
That the search warrant was issued
without sufficient showing of prob
able cause that felony had been
committed.
That the papers and documents
sought in the warrant were not partic-
ularly described as the law requires.
Search and Seizure
That the search may result in the
seizure of private, confidential and
privileged communications between
client and counsel which may compel
the defendant to be witness against
himself in subsequent criminal pro.
ceeding, in contravention of the con.
stitution of the United States.
That there is not pending in any
court any charge of a crime against
the defendant.
District Attorney Charles F. Clyne
will present the government side of
the case tomorrow morning after
which it is said Judge Lands will
give his decision.

KING GEORGE
PARTS WITH

London, FEB. liking George
V, in his speech proroguing parli.
ament today, alluded to the entry
of the United States into the war
and the detection of Russia. With
reference to Russia, he said:
"The negotiations opened by
her with the enemy have, how.
ever, served but to prove that the
ambition which provoked this un-
happy war is as yet undated.
These tragic events have added to
the burdens of the other allies, but
have not impaired the vigor and
loyalty with which one and all
continue to pursue the common
aim.
Amid the confusion of chang
ing events, the determination of
the democracies Of the world to
secure just and enduring peace
stands out ever more clearly"
Parliament will reassemble on
February IL. In the house of
commons, the speech from the
throne was read by the speaker.
