Washington, Dec. 4.-Formal reply
to the charges filed against him with
the house judiciary committee by Rep
resentative Keller, republican of Min
nesota, had been prepared by Attorney
General Daugherty for presentation to
the committee when it met Monday in
legislative session to consider the
Keller resolution demanding the at
torney generals impeachment.
Answering categorically the IA
specifications submitted in the Keller
charges, D~augherty's reply as sum
married. IN a department of justice
statement published Monday, declared,
in reference to Keller's demand, for
access to department documents, that
it showed to be arrayed behind the
move for his impeachment certain
radical leaders seeking to serve notice
upon every future attorney general
that if he dares enforce the laws of
the United States against such organi-
cations, he does so under the penalty"
of attempted impeachment.
Joined in the move with these, he
asserted were 1.-The profiteers, the
grafters, the so-called war defrauders,"
who sought by unconscionable and IN
scrupulous means TO gain knowledge
of what those charges with bringing
them to justice have secured as the
result of most painstakjng. faithful
and earnest efforts possible" on the
part of the attorney general and those
associated with him.

the department of justice stands ready
to meet Keller's demand for access to

Russia. was chosen chairman of the
conference. lie began the session BY
explaining The endeavors Of the soviet
government TO bring up at the recent
Genoa conference the question of dis
armament. Having failed, the soviet
government was compelled by dis
couragement to narrow down the prob
lem by bringing mp the question of dis
armament merely before its western
~neighbors, feeling certain a solution
of this matter will result in closer ties
with Russia's ~neighbors and have an
effect in all Europe"
NJ. Litvinoff, in outlining the soviet
governments declaration, said the act
ual reduction in standing armies was
insufficient in itself to bring about a
full solution of the problem Of a mutual
limitation in armament; therefore, it
was proposed to hold down military
budgets by strictly fixing a maximum
figure of military expenditure per SOL
der. It's proposal included simultan-
eous liquidation of the countries in

tons composed of certain groups of the
civilian population, it emphasized the

Left Babies and
Home for Movies;
Loses Her Riddles

Duluth, Dec. A young mother,
said to have been induced by q sister
to give up her home-a well-to-do
husband and two small children-for
the sake of a screen career, Saturday
lost the first round Of a legal fight
for her children, whose father, grief
stricken, died here a month ago.
The mother is Mrs. Aloisia L. Puck
of Los Angeles, widow Of Anthony. l..
Puck, a local architect. Alleging that
her children, Nancy Georgia, IL, and
Anthony, s, were being wrongfully de-
tanned by their grandmother, Mrs.
Marie Puck of Duluth, the widow OBJ
tanned g. writ of habeas corpus forcing
the grandmother to appear in court
and show cause why she should not
return the children to their mother.
Following the hearing, Judge Fl. A.
Danier ruled that the children should
remain in the custody Of their grand
mother until the court decided the
question.
During the hearing it developed that
Mrs. Aloisia L. Puck left Duluth with
her children for Los Angeles to spend
the winter of 1920. Following Puck's
death, his widow attempted to per-
suade the grandmother to send the
children to their mother. When this
was denied, legal action was started.
In court Saturday attorneys for the
grandmother denied that she had un-
lawfully detained the children, but that
they had been sent to her by their
mother, because she had found it diff
ficult to support them when her movie
venture failed.
The mother, according to informa-
ton here, now is engaged in the real
estate business in California.
