Buck Reiner Company and Asaph
Buck Alleged to Have Violated
Lever Act in Action Brought
by District Attorney.
is ON SUGAR SALE
Validity Of the Law is Under Question
as U. s. Court Judges Seem to
Fail to Agree on Its Con-
stitutionality.

Following his investigation in keo
ikuk yesterday, -E. G. Noon, United
States district attorney, filed an In
formation against Buck-Reiner Co.
land Asaph Buck, charging violation
Eof the Lever act. Through their at
itorneys, defendants waived prelimi
mary examination, and are bound over
ito await the action of the federal
grand jury. The bond is fixed al
81 900.
! The information was filed before
John S. Sprowls, United States COM
missioner. II charges "BuckReiner
Company and Asaph Buck with viola
| tion of section four of the food and
fuel act of 1917" The specific ale
cation in the petition is the follow
ing:
That the defendants did uniaw
fully make an unjust and unreason-
able rate or charge in handling and
dealing in necessities, to-wit on May
I25, 1920, did sell to S. Hamill Com
pany 5000 pounds OF granulated
sugar at twenty-nine cents pound, !"
when the petition alleges the former
purchase price TO have been Sixteen
cents pound"
The witnesses in the investigation
are H G. Larimer, fair price commits

Validity Of Law Questioned.
In this matter there is no contro-
versy as to the facts, but the ques-
ton that comes up is one as to the
of the Lever act, which
hsl r. - s,xcY Sac
for necessaries The United States
courts have themselves been at vari-
ance on the question as to the validity
of this statute. A number Of judges
have held that the act was void and
unconstitutional. this being the hold
ing of Judge Anderson Of Indian,
apolis, Judge Ferris of St Louis,
Judge Carpenter of Chicago and a
number of other United States judges.
On the other hand, number OF
United States courts have held that
the act was valid. The validity OF
the act is matter OF open dispute
in the court and has not yet been
passed upon by the supreme court OF
the United States.
If the act is valid dispute arises
as TO whether sales can be mades at
what it would cost to replace the
article sold. The government con-
tends that the business of the rate or
price does not depend upon cost of
replacing the article in the hands of
the dealer, but that it should be gov
erned by the cost price, regardless of
what the dealer would have to pay
to replace the article on his shelves.
Some of the courts that have sustain
ed the validity of the act have held
that the repla cement value should be
taken as the basis and reasonable
profit added to that, while it Is con-
tended by the government that the
cost price with a reasonable profit
should control, regardless of what It
would cost the merchant to replenish
his. stock.
This question also has yet TO be
passed upon by the supreme court.
These matters, questions of law, can
not be passed upon locally until the
November session of the federal court
and in the meantime may be settled
by the decision of the supreme court.

JUNEAU REPUBLICANS RESENT sUPPokT OF MCBRIDE Bv
 DEMOCRATIC PAPERS

Juneau. Alaska, Feb. 1.-The re- publicans of Juneau are strongly re- sentful over the fact that the Juneau
 Empire and Ketchikan Chronicle, both of which are democratic papers. are supporting the candidacy of McBride and thereby attempting to create a
 division of the republican party. The
 machine element is everywhere out strong for AfcBride in the hope of
 splitting the republicans. Juneau republicans are exerting efforts to in- duce P. c. Mccormick of wIangell
 to file as republican candidate for
 senator from the First Division. There Is general impression among leading republicans here that the senator elected this year should come from tho southern end of the division and scnti- ment seems crystalized in favor of Mccormick. Only two possible can. didates for the republican nomination for the Territorial attorney general ship are thus far mentioned. John Rustgard has signified his intention of. filing and it is possible that O. P. Hubbard may make the race. The regular republicans of Juneau are of fering whole hearted support to Chas. Heron of Anchorage, who filed his i,,, fo, Nntiouo1 |Committeeman Saturday. The first issue of Herron's new Juneau news paper the Alaska Daily Capital. will fappear March 1st.
