GRANTS INJUNCTION
 BUT UPHOLDS LEVER
 FOOD AND FUEL ACT

PUEBLO, Colo, April 9-Although
 the petition of the IA Denver retail clothing and shoe dealers and the three coal companies, for injunctions to restrain United States District At torney Harry B. Tedrow from present.
 ing to the federal grand jury certain evidence he claimed to have of alleged pofiteering, was granted by Robert E.
 Lewis, judge of the district court, to-
 day, the 'constitutionality of the Lever
 food and fuel control act was upheld.
 as also was the contention of some
 authorities that the United States
 technically still is at war with Ger many.
 The petition of the merchants and the three coal companies was granted on the apparent effort on the part of the district attorney to charge that these companies were taking exorb- tant profits on goods purchased some time ago and which could not be re- placed at the same price. The court held that the purchase price of the goods some time ago should not be considered. but that the replacement price is the only one on which to base charges of profiteering. If the district attorney could present evidence that the profiteering charged was on the present wholesale value of the goods .hen the grand jury would have the Tight to indict. It was proven to the satisfaction of Judge Lewis that the charges made by the district attorney were based on a cost of the goods sev- eral months ago instead of on the re- placement value. temporary injunc- ton therefore was granted.
 However, after issuing the restrain ing order, Judge Lewis called the members of the grand jury into the court room and gave them their in- structions. He declared that they should investigate into alleged profit eering and should they find evidence Of a merchant making an excessive profit on piece of goods, the profit being based on the present wholesale value of the goods, the court would be willing to stretch a point and bring such profiteers to justice. He cited several examples of rumored profiteer- ing and ordered the grand jury to se- cure testimony from witnesses whose services he believed could be obtained and. if the evidence warranted return indictments against the dealers in- volyed.
