Congressional committees are af-
ter A. Mitchell Palmer, with the pur-
pose of at least giving him an un-
pleasant quarter Of an hour. Last
week the attorney general was called
before the senate judiciary subcommlt-
tee to reply to charges of illegal and
unauthorized practices by the Depart
ment of Justice In It's activities against
the Reds. Ostensibly, Mr.. Palmer was
summoned merely to express his opin-
ion of Senator Frances resolution for
a general amnesty for political prls-
oners. He opposed the resolution be-
cause, he said, the government was
already doing all 1t could in this line;
he favored the repeal of the espionage
act, but said there should be perma-
nent legislation to protect the govern
ment from violent radicals. The France
resolution strongly condemns the prac-
tices of the department Of justice, and
in reply Mr.. Palmer made sweeping
denials of the charges and produced
reports of his agents to prove them un-
founded.
Samuel Untermyer recently accused
the attorney general of malfeasance.
In an interview Mr.. Palmer said he
did not know "how far Mr.. Untermyer
is actuated in his present attack by
the recent conviction Of his friend
and former associate, member Of the
New York bar, for conspiracy to vio-
late the trading with the enemy act,
in case in which Mr.. Untermyer
very earnestly pressed me to with
hold action at the beginning"
Mr.. Palmer says that Untermyer
was opposed to taking over enemy
property and once threatened him
when, as alien property custodian, he
declined to yield to the lawyers re-
quests.

NEW YORK, May 2.-There is a
saying among theatrical producers
that theaters have been built by
stage door patronage" Any pro-
ducer of a pretty girl show is be-
sieged by fieshly yogis whose tastes
run to stage beauties. They will
pay any price to be permitted the
freedom of life back of the foot
lights.
In fact. there are three theaters
in Manhat reliably said to be
monuments to the craze for stage
door privileges. In one case a IA
nous millionaire stepped out of his
curtained limousine one night and
throwing his fur collar about his
face darted up a little areaway with
flowers for the star. who was hav-
ing her premiere.
He was met coldly by the pro-
ducer himself. who had spent S40.-
900 to produce the play. He denied
the millionaire the freedom of the
stars dressing room. There was a
heated argument and next morning
scouts sent out by a detective agen-
cy bought out the house for two
weeks.
The play, however. played to
empty seats. The millionaire had
bought out the house as a matter
OF revenge and destroyed the tick
cts. The play closed, the star was
released and in fve months a thea
ter was built especially for her. And
the millionaire was a privileged
back stage visitor. The other two
theaters were built. by men who
wanted similar privileges.
been the most successful with beau
tiful girl shows perhaps OF any has
always stood out against back door
favors. Last month two Of his stars,
playing in Chicago. were suddenly
AT liberty because they had
smuggled a Chicago man OF wealth
into the stage entrance.
This producer had. according to
Broadway gossip. received a certi-
ned check for $4,000 from a bank
er when q musical comedy opened
around Christmas week. note
inside signed with initials said:
'T hope this will recompense you
for any annoyance that might re-
suit from my going back stage
from time TO time" The check was
returned by the producer without
comment.
Producers say that an outsider
permitted back-stage destroys the
morale of the company. His pres
ence gives the impression that he
is close friend of the producer
and has a pull.
