Look Into Affairs. of Alien
Property Custodian
Palmer
CLAIM PARTIANSHIP
Big Salaries for Important Positions
Under Him and Little Money
for Property Sold

WASHINGTON, June 5--An in
vestigation into the conduct of the
office of the alien property custodian
under A. Mitchell Palmer was order
ed Tuesday by the judiciary commit
tee of the United States Senate after
j. S. Frelinghuysen, republican sena-
tor from New Jersey, had protested
against the committees favorably re-
porting to the senate for confirmation
the nomination of Mr.. Palmer as at
torney general of the United States.
A Subcommittee of the judiciary
committee, with w. P. Dillingham;,
republican senator from Vermont, as
chairman, was appointed to conduct
the Investigation and report back to
the full committee. Senators Thomas
Sterling of South Dakota and A. B..
Fall of New Mexico are the other re-
publican members of the sub-commit-
tee. Senators Lee S. Overman, North
Carolina, and Thomas ]. Walsh, Mon
tana, are tn Democratic members.
Charges that have been brought
against Mr.. aPlmer's conduct of the
custodian's Office, and which Senator
Frelinghuysen reviewed before the
Judiciary committee in the form of
criticism" of Mr.. Palmer's admin
istration as custodian, will be aired
at public hearings which will start be-
days. The charges and Criticisms"
that will be investigated were stated
as follows by Senator Frelinghuysen:
"Mr Palmer has been severely cri-
ticized in many quarters" said Sen
ator Frelinghuysen, "for having ap-
pointed only influential democrats at
exorbitant salaries to the important
positions under the alien property
custodian. There has also been con-
siderable criticism over the sale of
much of the property formerly owned
by Germans under his direction as
custodian. Many of the sales un-
doubtedly were made at far less than
the marketable value of the proper
ties.
"These criticisms and charges
should be carefully looked into, and I
for one protest against the appoint
ment of Mr.. Palmer to the unusual
position in which he would be called
upon as the legal representative of
the President of the United States in
any investigation of his own actions
as alien property custodian that
might be ordered.
ain addition to this, Mr. Palmer is
in contempt of the United States SEN
ate for failing to submit reports or
dered by the senate"

RAILROAD POLICY
OUTLINED in THE
HOUSE ESCH BILL
The Measure Would Control
Roads After Return to
Owners
GOVERNS OPERATIONS
Proposes to Retain Many Methods
That Were Adopted Under Con-
troll of Government
GOVERNS OPERATIONS

The policy of Federal regulation of
railroads after they shall be returned
to private ownership is outlined in a
bill introduced by Representative
John J. Esch, republican, of Wiscon-
sin, chairman of the House Commit
tee on Interstate and Foreign Com
merce. No attempt is made in the bill
to provide for returning the road to
private operation, the measure being
devoted strictly to the control that
shall be exercised by Federal agen-
cies after government operation ends.
Broadly speaking, the bill proposes
to retain under private operation
many methods adopted under govern
ment control which were not used by
the roads before the war.
"The bill does not provide for Fed
eral incorporation or the creation of
regional systems under the Inter
Representative Esch, in a formal
statement explaining the bill. ut
does not guarantee fixed return on
valuation or book cost. 1t does pro-
vide, however, that in reaching its
conclusion as to the justice and rea-
sonableness of any rate, fare, charge,
ETC., the Interstate Commerce Com
mission shall take into the considera-
ton the cost of labor and other oper-
ating consists in so far as they be-
come material in any case under con-
sideration."
"The bill changes the Interstate
Commerce Commission in many par
ticulars and generally strengthens and
extends the powers of the commission
to enable it to preserve the demon
strated benefits of unified control, and
to relieve the carriers in large meas
ure of conflicting restrictions impos-
ed by State authorities.
"The present law is ample to apply
to transportation by both rail and
water, tn term water including lax
es, rivers, canals and other inland
waterways in the United States and
Alaska, the Panama Canal, and all
waters under our jurisdiction.
"To prevent destruction of inland
water transportation the commission
is given power to prescribe joint rates
and also proportional rates.
"The commission is authorized to
fix division of rates between carriers.
! Under the exercise of this power it
would be possible for weak lines to
receive such share of joint raes as
will enable them to live.
"The period of rate suspensions is
shortened and consolidation and pool
ing of freight and arnings are to be
allowed under rigid control.
"The car service act is amended so
as to extend car service to include
the use, control and supply as well as
the movement, distribution, exchange,
interchange and return of locomo-
tives, cars and other vehicles. In case
of shortage of equipment, congestion
of traffic or other emergency, the COM
mission is given authority to suspend
the operation of all rates and to di-
rect the interchange and use of this
equipment without regard to owner
ship. 1t can also give directions for
preference or priority in transporta-
| ton embargoes and permits as it may
determine"

Dubs the Umpires Raughton
and Punk for Their Not
Knowing Ball
THE SCORE WAS 13 TO 3
St. Johnsbury Played Good Ball But
Not Enough to Overcome L. r.
and the Woodchuck Holes

. The Academy team went over to
Island Pond yesterday to play The re-
turn game and ran into bad COM
bination. In order to reach the field
they had to drive two miles out of
town and then get out and walk a
mile through fields and woods and
across brooks. When they finally ar
rived they found a mountain pasture
with tall grass and no diamond laid
out. On top of this they were served
with an umpire that couldn't tell a
ball from a strike and made no eXer-
ton to see whether balls down the
base lines were fair or foul. Outside
of this it was good game and the
home team won 13 to 3. Time after
time ST. Johnsbury batters would go
up and let three balls go by which
the umpire called strikes. 1t became
so apparent that the Island Pond fans
couldn't stand it and began roasting
the umpire themselves.
For st. Johnsbury Foye played a
good game, cutting down several runs
at the plate and getting on three Of
the four times up. Moore pitched
steady ball and deserved closer
score. The Academy team played
far better ball in the field than they
have before this season.
For Island Pond the speedy Stew
ems hit five in five times up but he
couldn't steal on Foye who nipped
him on every attempt. Probably if he
hadn't he would have stolen as many
bases as he did in last Fridays
game at st. Johnsbury. Rooney was
wild hitting two men and passing
four.

States Attorney Campbell Takes up
Case in Newark for Non-Support
and Truancy

States Attorney James B. Campbell
Municipal Court Judge M. G. Morse
and A. F. Stone went to Newark yes
terday to investigate a case of nom
support and truancy in the family
of U. S. Walter.
They found a most deplorable and
pitiable condition. Walter has FAM
lily of nine children, four, of, them
school age who have been very ir-
regular in school attendance, and
present the appearance of being half
fed and not comfortably clothed
Walter is an indolent fellow living ION
farm, the work \, being very much
neglected. The sap buckets were not
gathered, dressing not hauled from
the barns or planting done. He was
found sitting on the door step of his
home smoking the powerful T., ID.
pipe as unconcerned over the degrad-
ing conditions which surrounded him
and his family and for which he was
the sole cause. ma
Judge Morse held court among the
brush piles and unkept yard and for
chilly brought home to this derelict of
humanity the necessity of pulling
himself together and obeying the
laws and the duty of the parent to
provide for his children.

''BOY SCOUT WEEK"
OUT FOR MEMBERS
JUNE 8 TO JUNE IA
This Demonstration Was
Urged by President
Wilson
A SEVEN-DAY DRIVE
Under Leadership of Leon H. Baxter
/, This Community is Modified
for the Work
SEVEN-DAY DRIVE

Under the chairmanship of Leon
H. Baxter hundreds of men and wo-
men in st. Johnsbury are mobilizing
! for the part this community is to play
in the great nationwide "Boy Scout
Week" to be conducted from June 9th
to Flag Day, June 14th, in recognition
of the remarkable services rendered
by the Boy Scouts of America during
I the war.
This seven-day demonstration, uni
que in the annals of drives, was urged
by the President of the United States
himself, in a proclamation issued ear
lier in the week. 1t will aim to focus
the attention of the public on the
program of the movement, and awak-
en- communities everywhere to the in
fiuencc of Scouting on the boyhood
of the nation.
Parades, pageants, masques and
stunts of thousand varieties will be
staged in the big cities and remote
country hamlets alike, and talks or
the true worth of Scouting will be
given in churches, schools, and other
public places. Special moving pic
lures are now being filmed with Doug
las Fairbanks, Charlie Chaplin and
other leading screen stars as princip-
ais, and these will be shown in thea
tres everywhere.
"Never before in the history of the
Scout Movement has anything been
attempted on SO great a scale," said
Chairman Baxter when asked for a
word of comment on the coming
drive
"We want to project the light of
public attention on the Boy Scouts OF
America as a Movement which has
grown to be the largest of its kind
the world has ever known, brother
hood of organized boyhood which
builds solidly for the future, which
prepares the young of today for the
responsibilities of citizenship tomor-
row.
"The work of the Scouts during the
war brought out the fact that boys
are no longer negligible factors in
the active life of the country. By
selling $300,00O,O0O worth of Liberty
Bonds, $50,000,000 worth of Wal
Savings Stamps, locating 20,000,0OC
feet of walnut lumber for the Wal
Department, collecting thousands o1
barrels of pits for the government
and cooperating with war agencies o.
every nature, they proved their mettle
and established themselves high ir
the favor of the nation.
ain the rush Of events and the ur-
gency of immediate demands of vari'
Gus emergencies, the accomplishment;
of the boys did not stand out as am
azingly as they would in ordinary
times. But the big men and womer
of the country are determined that the
contributions of the Boy Scouts shall
not be forgotten. They are banding
themselves into mighty organization
of gratitude-to express their appre.
citation of what they did, to erect
