The senate committee investigating the pre-con-
vnton activities Of presidential candidates. has at
last struck trail that promises to lead to important
results. It is charged out in St. Louis that the
Department of Justice campaign against the high
cost Of living was nothing but scheme to advance
the Palmer presidential ambition. What is more
the charge is backed up by considerable show oil
EVIDENCE. 1t will not do to assume right away that
the Attorney General had any direct knowledge OF
the Missouri developments but the charges ought
10 be probed to the very bottom, II for no better
reason than to show future cabinet officers the pit
falls that are before them when they let their
political ambitions get the better Of their sense OF
DUTY great deal Of time and millions Of dollars
o. money were devoted tc the.war on high prices
but the results were negligible. Ii is possible that
this is largely due to the fact that his suoordnates
spent most Of their time trying to secure nomin-
alton for Palmer The public will get over its an
noyance at the way the thing turned out, but Palmer
never will. Unless the stLouis charges can be con-
cusvely disproyed he viii 90 down into the political
history Of the country as another Of the victims Of
an unworthy ambition.
