Daugherty Issues Ruling Based
on Decision in New
berry Case.
BY GEORGE r. HOLMES.
international News Service.

Something akin to a political
sensation was caused today when
it became known that Attorney
General Daugherty has handed
out an opinion to the effect that
under existing law the thIrty-five
candidates for election to the Sem
ate this year need not make any
returns on their campaign eX-
penditures, either for the pri-
maries or for the regular elections
this fall.
Based on Newberry Decision.
The returns are required under
the corrupt practices act of 1911. but
the Attorney General construed the
Supreme Courts decision in the
Newberry case is tnvalidating that
portion Of the law affecting Sen.
ators, because the method of their
election has been changed since the
passage of the act. They formerly
were elected by State legislatures
and now by direct vote of the people.
That there will be a speedy re.
vision OF the law to compel Scna.
torial candidates to file returns, just
as do members of the House, was
generally predicted at the Capitol
today by liberals" of both Demo
cratic and Republican parties.
Fears were privately expressed
that unless there IL speedy
amendment to the existing law. the
Daugherty decision opens loop
hole for the forthcoming elections
through which flood Of money
can be poured into many States
where there are hotly contested
Senatorial fights.
Demands Congress Act.
Congress must do something,
and ID II quickly" Senator Pat
Harrison Dem.) Of Mississippi said
today. This Congress can have no
more pressing or important bust
ness right now than taking steps
to safeguard the purity ot elections

Correspondence of Wicker

SeTvice)
New revelations in connection
with charges of stupendous war
graft disclosed today two signifi-
cant letters.
One was written by the law firm
of Cadwalader, Wickersham d
Taft, whose leading members are
former Attorney General George
w. Wickershan, and Henry w.
Taft, brother Of Chief Justice Taft
of the United. States Supreme
Court, the other by II. B. Mingle,
president Of the Standard Aircraft
Company.
Probe Demanded. .r..
Both letters were turned over TO
Congressman Roy o. woodruff ute-
publican) Of Michigan, who, with
Congressman Royal Johnson IKE
publican) OF South Dakota, intro
duced a resolution calling for a
sweeping investigation OF war graft
and the alleged laxity Of the Depart
ment of Justice.
The letter of Mingle, of the Stand
ard Aircraft Company. confirms
charges made by Congressman \
Woodruff that that organization ana
| the Standard Aero Corporation were
! financed by Japanese interests.
The two Japanese financed aero
companies received total payments
from the Government of the United
States Of S16,461 ,6S0.15 on war CON
tracts. of which t9,94S,02S.42 had
been paid without any records and
Sc, ,5S6 ,774.61 still remains due to the
Government because of ov"rpay
ments.
After investigators OF the Govern.
ment began delving into the trans.
actions Of these japanese interests,
Mitsui & Co, the law firm of Cad
walader. Wickersham Taft. their
attorneys. made the request In a
letter that their own auditors be
allowed to sit in with the Govern
ment's auditors to explain certain
antiquities.
| What Records Show.
Audit records show that the Gov
ernment had paid S2.266, ,479.35 to the
| Standard Aero companies, financed
by Mitsuit & Co, for amortization
and depreciation on buildings, ma
| chinery and equipment, and in the
same settlements these companies
were allowed for rents the sum OF
1870, 1892. The report Of the audit
sets forth that the buildings were
never owned by the companies and
the charges for both depreciation
and rent could not be reconciled.
In a letter written November 10,
1921, to Capt. w. F. Voland, OF the
finance division of the Air Service,
the firm of Cadwalader, Wickershaln
& Taft, wrote:

The Russians had gone 80 far ss to
give out the greater part OF the con.
tents OF the answer, which strength.
ened the belief that Il was being
handed to the allies.
All was in readiness for the cere.

This was regarded as q favorable de.

The Russian document IL elusive

II is understood to go into minute
details upon the chief issues, such as
return of foreign-owned property
which had been nationaliZed by the
Soviets; recognition of the old Czarist
debts by Moscow. and n loan de.
manded by Russia for the reconstruc.
ton Of the country.
Preparations were made TO copy
the document so that il could be
distributed quickly.
The keynote of the Russian memo
randum might he conveyed in the
phrase Let's talk II over" as rega rds

In the meantime, the article in

The document is to be accompa

Tchitcherin will emphasize, first
Russia's good faith; second, the prin

the document based upon the prin

where arrangements were made fol
the present meeting.
Tchitcherin, 1t was understood. will
express regret that France and Bel

further negotiations. In this con

would enable France and Belgium to
approve the Allied memorandum.

1t is a deplorable fact that the daily
press of Tennessee, to the greatest
extent, pursues a policy of suppress
sion toward all other candidates ex-
|cept those which happen to be favored
by individual papers. The favored
candidate of the daily paper is lauded
editorially or boosted in news matter
and the other candidates given no sort
of fair chance. If these papers have
no sence of fairness, they have no
right to claim the respect CT the peo-
ple-even those who agree with them
on particular candidates. Any paper
big or little, daily or weekly, can be
fair, honest and just If it will and
