DEMANDS THAT
CHARGES Be RETRACTED
Says Statements in Report to COM

WASHINGTON. Juno 4.-rcliN
Frankfurter. OF Cambridge, Mass. was
today called on by Acknowledgement
palmer to retract Il statement signed
Jr, both OF Cambridge, and sub
United to a committee of lawyers of
the National Popular Government
League relative to the treatment OF
Justice. The Acknowledgement says
the committee report is utterly
false" The demand for rctraction
was scnt in response to Il wiro from
Acknowledgement If he was disposed
to prohibit arrested aliens from hav-
ing counsel.
In his telegram Mr.. Palmer says:
II have not criticized you or any
other lawyer for appearing ms
sci for aliens In deportation cases In
any proceedings. either before the
Departments of Labor or in court. My
criticism was directed against the ac-
ton of yourself and other lawyers
whose names were attached TO n
statement filed with the tIiouse)
Committee on Rules and given wido
,eriy false charges against the De-
partmcnt of Justice and the AZ
torncy-General.
These charges had rs their only
foundation statements. made by aliens
after their arrests, which were
the allegations OF which. as you
know. wcrc denied by the responsible
sworn officers OF the government
whose conduct these aliens sought to
%iInpeach. These government officers
are responsible American citizens OF
high character and unQuestioncd
vcracity who's testimony Is entitled to
be believed. Some Of the aliens
themselves have since denied the
very statements which your commit
tee fled. Your apparent wiling
ness to believe these statements made
by alien anarchists when facing do
~2ortation in preference to the tcsti-
mony OF sworn officers of the gov
crnmcnt. whose only motive is the
performance OF duty. indicates GONE
other desire on your part than just
administration OF the law.
II produced before the Committee
on Rules OF tho House OF I.cprcscn-
~tatives conclusive proof of the falsity
of these charges. Confronted by
proof of the u~ndoubt"d falsity OF
these charges, you owe it TO yourself
as we'll as to tho department of JUS

SEEN ON THE SIDE

Aches.
There are 80 many bones in the body
And so many nerves. doctors say.
And \ fellow can find the whole business
In the course OF ! strenuous day.
You may hide all the nerves In the mazcs
or an intricate system OF doubt,
But toothachc or carachc or pain in the neck
Will dig in and hustle them out,
If you get what I'm talking about.
Though your joints swim in lymph that's In

To lubricate. nourish and ease.
In the damp days OF Spring there's n twing-
ing
That uncovcrs the joints in your knees.
And the hip pad that graces the figure
That is set in the swift social strain
Is n cinch for the j!nx when ~sciatica swings
On tho midriff and ballyhoos pain,
If you get what I'm saying, again!
Take your first round. for instance, Old Timer,
When the crocus peeps up through the sod
It's a pleasure to tackle tho golf links.
But next day it's n sort of n prod.
when you've rested your muscles all winter
You enthusc as you should, on the day
When you start with your nibiick and all of
that cuff
Blu, the llninent's really the play.
If you get what I'm trying TO say.
And the aches, they arc countless and nagglng
AS the kick of 4 chorus OF wives!
And II kittens have pains. you must wonder
what n fool cat would want of nine lives!
It's a part OF the feel OF the season.
It's the price that we pay TO be free
ON the links. in tho garden or pulling q boat
on tho lake or the foam-crested SEQ.

wholly without authority of law and in vio-
