That He Has Not Devoted One
Moments Time to Private
Business Since Entering the

Ion considers he has not contravened
the law prohibiting a secretary of the

son, Democrat of Georgia.
The law was called to Mr.. Melons
attention, officials said, when he was
considering the invitation Of Presi-

their opinion that the mere holding

Melons only active participation in
business was acting On the director

Before Home People.

Chicago, Feb. 16.-H. E. Hart OF
Long Prairie, Mimi, speaking be-
fore the Interstate Merchants Council
here today said there seemed to be
only one class of merchandise dis
tributors who have had a good stand

lican Administrations and those are

He charged that Attorney General
Daugherty is ignorant of the true con-

the mail order houses. What would
it be worth to mail order interests to
have the public educated by the at
torney general and, radical newspa-
pers to believe every time they were
making a purchase at retail store
that they were being held up and
robbed. 1t would mean more business
for the mail order houses.
