BILLIONS IN.
WAR CRAFT
IS CHARGED
Senator King Urges Public to
Demand Prosecution Of Men
Who Robbed U. S.
By Cosmopolitan New. Service.

A thorough expose Of all graft
and waste during the war would
show that the United States Gov
ernment was robbed of billions,
instead of millions, in the opinion
Of Senator King (Dem.) of Utah.
There appears to be a disin-
clination on the part of existing
Government agencies to expose
and prosecute war graft cases and
it may be advisable for Congress
to appropriate sufficient funds to
establish an agency, independent
of the Department of Justice, to
investigate war contracts, recover
Over-pa yments, and bring to US
tice the men responsible for the
stupendous rObbing of the pub
lie" said Senator King today.
Recovery of Millions Likely.
Money expended for this. even
il it amounts to $2,00O.0Oo OF 81.
OOO 900. would be money Will spent.
tor 1t would mean the recovery or
millions.
public sentiment should rise up
and demand that Congress take
aCtlOn on the resolution '.hlhnB lbl
an investigation OF the war graft
THE publiC's interests, not par.
tisan politics, should be tn" oniv
consideration to Members OF Con
gress.
~ have no doubt that II all the
graft and all the waste IN depart

tracts in the hystcria OF war when
excitement and waste made II i'm.
possible to keep checks on opera.
tions of men brought In from the
outside, many OF them from big
corporations, were uncovered. the
robbery of the Government would
involve billions OF dollars.
THE scandal growing out Of
these war contracts touches not
only the period of the war. but the
present time. 1t touches not only
men who served in the war admin.
istration. but men who are now
officials Of the United States Gov
ernment-members of the present
