GIVE PROMISE
| OF ACTION IN
| GRAFT CASES
Government Officials Say No
Reason Exists for Further
Delays.
TO APPLY s5oo,ooo FUND

WASHINGTON. May 15.-Congressional
leaders promised quick action on the ap-
preparation og 100000 recommended by
the Appropriations Committee to carry
out the campaign against war frauds.
Criticism by Representatives johnson Of
South Dakota and Woodruff of Michigan,
spurred Republicans to respond rapidly
to Attorney General Daugherty's request
for more funds and experts to prosecute
those who cheated the Government during
the war.
The program outlined contemplated ac-
ton in the House Monday and in the Sem
ate before the end of the week. The
President, Republican leaders prophesied,
could sign the bill by next Sunday.
With two provisions, the Appropria-
tions Committee, met in full the request
of Mr.. Daugherty.
There were indications that Messrs.
johnson and Woodruff would withhold
further attacks on the Department Of
Justice for alleged laxity In prosecuting
the war funds pending the results OBJ
tanned through the use of 100000.
LACK OF FUNDS
HAMPERED HE SAID.
According to the testimony Of Mr..
Daugherty before the committee, the
work Of the Department Of Justice would
be hampered without further funds to
carry on the war fraud cases.
I'VE have gotten to the point where we
are up against It In the matter Of money
and men," he said. I'VE have reached the
point where we are having to use or
own force beyond any reasonable limit.
The report Of the committee pointed
out that there are between $50 end 275
war fraud cases pending in the depart
ment involving In varying amounts q
total Of 1892, 100000. The number of
cases will undoubtedly increase" the re-
port further point sout In referring to
$4,000 In the War Department yet TO
be gone over.
1T is an undoubted fact" states the
report, that the amounts which the Gov
be many times the amount which Is
granted to defray the expenses incident
to their prosecution"
ONE-FOURTH OF
STAFF ON JOB.
The Attorney General told the commit
tee that at the present time about one
fourth Of his STAFF was engaged In work
on the war fraud cases The apppropri-
alton OF 100000 for this work. he said,
would make possible the employment OF
an additional group Of attorneys. num-
bering between twenty FIVE and forty, on
this work alone.
In explanation OF the needs Of add
tionai funds. the Attorney General cited
the Lincoln Motor case. The sum oil
s10,000.000 was involved. no said, and
the cost OF carrying out the Governments
claim will cost probably between $50, 600
and 100000.
