PICKETING WHITE
HOUSE SUSPENDED
FOR NINETY DAYS

On the 10Th of July committee
of forty of the best known liberal
citizens of the country, comprising
labor leaders, lawyers, church lead
ers, editors, etc, interviewed Presi-
dent Harding, requesting amnesty
for the remaining political prison
ers. The presidents answer was that
the remaining cases will be reviewed
within the next sixty days and each
case considered on its own merits.
Picketing at the White House, I'M
der the direction of the Joint Am
nesty Committee in Washington, will
therefore be discontinued for the
siXty-day period, giving the presi-
dent the opportunity to put his prom
Use into effect.
Now, President Harding is not the
only one connected with these cases.
They being taken up individually in
volve a great deal of red tape on the
part of minor officials. 1t is exceed
ingly important that we keep the
wires and mails hot on the trail of
all those responsible for the i'm
prisonment of these innocent men.
The response for amnesty from la
Dor everywhere is wonderful. A few
replies from unions are to the effect
that since their conventions have
passed amnesty resolutions they do
not see the value of doing likewise.
1t is just here where the value of
bombarding Washington with de-
mands and appeals for their release
counts most. No leader speaking for
his rank and file is listened to with
half the respect as when he is back
ed up by similar demands by the
rank and file.
This is a political year. Demand
an answer from your senators and
congressman. They are bound to
listen now. Their ears are closer to
the ground now than ever, trying to
find how labor will vote this fall.
We are fighting for a just cause
and are entitled to justice. The po-
litical prisoners will be released; if
you flood Washington with the en-
closed letters, copied on your own
stationary.
Instruct your officers again to
send a copy each to President Hard
ing, Attorney General Daugherty,
your senators and congressman.
With best wishes,
Fraternally yours,

STATEMENT BY GOVERNOR
 E. MONT REILLY OF PORTo RICO

New York, Dec. 20.-(By the A P.)-| Governor E. Mont Reilly, of Porto Rico, stated today to the Associated Press that the statements sent out from New York that he had criticised any individual or any political party in or out of Porto Rico were entirely incorrect.
 SHe added "I have never given an inter view in Porto Rico nor in the states per tatning to Porto Rican affairs where l have criticised any citizen of Porto Rico or any political party
 q desire to say in reply to the state ment made by I'orto Rican citizen that grand jury had made a presentment against me that not only by the lower court but by unanimous vote of the su- preme% court was full exonerated. "As ta the statement made from Wash ington by Porto Rican that no other of- ficials had been criticised by a grand jury desire to say that MT. Jose B. Denedito, | inSular treasurer, whom I removed from office, and six of his deputies were in+ dicted by the federal grand jury soon after I removed him from office. On ac- count of the removal of the treasurer Bendieto, this last attack has been made on me. In appointing MT. Benedicto's successor, I appointed MT. Ramon Aboy, Jr., one of the leading unionists and bus | mess men of the island. At the same time I appointed a new secretary of state who was also a prominent unionist. Since I | have been on the island I have made 176 | appointment, of which 112 were unionists, l 50 republicans and IA socialists. When 1 the legislature met lest February I sent l to the senate nominations of 3S unionists. l7 republicans and socialists. I think that, have been more than fair to the unionists and the only reasonable com plaint might be from the republicans and socialists.
 >"I want to say so that the continent als may understand that the socialists oi Porto, Rico are not the socialists oi America. The Porto Rican socialists are outstanding Americans and stand for old glory first.
 l My present cabinet is composed of
 three unionists two continentals and ont
 republican.
 When I went to the island municipa
 bonds of various towns were selling iron 80 cents to S8 cents and they were solt at private sale. I ordered that all bond
 be sold at public auction and since tha
 time they have sold from 103 1-2 to 113
 We sold bonds of Maniti the other day a
 10e. a town of 5000.
 When sent to Porto Rico there wer
 five strikes on the island and the islam had not been without a strike for min , years In ihe railway strike a number 0 , men had been killed. I stopped all c these strikes within six or eight week
 after my arrival and there have been n strikes since.
 q want to say this: That I desire ct
 pecially to state that as aforesaid I,hav no criticism of any citizens of Porto Ric who may not agree with me or who ma - be not friendly with me"

TO END TO-DAY HEARING ON
 DAOGHERTY IMPEACHMENT

Washington, Dec. 20.-Public hearings on the impeachment charges brought against Attorney General Daugherty probably will end tomorrow before the house judiciary committee, which is ex- pected to report to the house that it found no evidence on which to base an impeachment proceeding. The report will not be made, however, until after the Christmas holidays because of the absence of members from Washington during the time.
 When the committee adjourned tonight after two long sessions, there remained to be heard only half dozen witnesses. These are officials of the department of justice who will be questioned concerning allegations concerning allegations in the specifications drawn by Representative Keller, republican, Minnesota, which had not been touched upon at the time MT. Keller withdrew from the case.
 Examination of the department officers began late today over the protest of sev- eral committeeman who insisted that the attorney general should not be asked to offer witnesses to testify concerning charges in support of which no evidence had been presented Chairman Volstead insisted, however, that the committee ought to go into all of the charges to satisfy itself as. far as possible whether there was basis for them.
 Representative Woodruff. republican, Michigan laid before the committee evS- dence which he contended showed "un- necessary delay" by the department of justice in bringing suit against the Wright Martin Aircraft corporation for the recovery of Ss,6o1,715 growing out of alleged over-payment of war claims. As sistant Attorney General Seymour an- npunced that suit for the recovery. of this

CONSPIRACY TO LOOT
 BROOKLYN NAVY BASE

New York, Dec. 2o.-Details of an al- leged milhon-dolla conspiracy to loot the Brooklyn navy base were revealed today with the arrest of 22 civilian employees.
 Twenty-three persons were indicted re- gently by a federal grand jury after long vestigation in which the navy in- telligence service, department of justice and New York police joined. The twenty third civilian had not been found at night fall.
 The others were arraigned before Fed eral Judge Garvin and held in. S5, 900 bail each None could furnish this amount. and the court indicated it might reduce bail if an early date for trial could not be fixed at the next hearing January 3.
 Although authorities at the navy de- partment in Washington tonight declared their reports of the thefts in Brooklyn indicaii a total of only S1,2o0 involv- ed, the indictments returned against the | twenty-three persons arrested charge thefts totalling s2.10O.
 Officials here pointed out tonight that despite the small amounts specifically charged, the alleged thefts have been carried on over a period of two years and more than a score of persons have been indicted while many more are be. l lieved to have been involved.
 Therefore, the investigators said, tho present charges are only an opening wedge { before the case is completed 1t should show thefts of certainly no les than S100,0oo traceable to the grouI shadowed during the past three months
 It may be, the investogators said, tha
 when all the losses since the war ar, checked up the total may reach a ia greater figure.

BOND MARKET,

New York, Dec 20.-Moderate inn provement in United States government issues and marked irregnlarty in the rest of the list was noted in today's dealings in bonds on the New York stock exchange.
 Active buying of our own govern ment bonds led to the belief that the January reinvestment demand was first making itself felt in those issues, Lib erty 3 1-2's gaining Is cents on S1VV and the Second, Third, Fourth and new 4'~1-4s improving to 12 cents. The first 4 1-4's and the Victory S-4T yielded slightly at the close.
 There was not much demand. for for eign liens, which exhibited a weak tone. Serbian S's, Swiss S's and United Kingdom 1-2's of 1929 each so1ds of a point and the losses in other issues were fractional.
 Further weakness of St. Paul convert fble 1-2's and debenture 4's, each of which dropped more than a point, was the outstanding development in the railroad list. No new reason was as- cribed for this weakness, but it Is be- Iieved in some quarters that the recent cut in the Great Northern preferred div idend may have been an indirect cause for further selling of these liens. The General 4 1-2's showed some improve. ment. z,

CHICAGO CHAIN MARKET.

Chicago. Dec. 2o-Heavy selling to realize profits lead to sharp breaks in the value of wheat, corn and oats ts- day after some new high price records for the season had been touched. The wheat market closed nervous at 1-4 to 2 Is net lower with May 1.24 to 1.24 Is and July 1.13 5-s to f.KS- S-4. Corn finished 7-s to 3-4c down oats cS 7-S to 1c, and provisions varying from 2 decline to Sc advance.
 With an advance in Liverpool que takiens. tending to lift prices here, the way was opened for holders of wheat to unload to advantage. and the oppor- tunity was quickly grasped. It was even asserted in some quarters that the Liverpool market had been purposely bid up to furnish such chance. How ever. this might be, selling here quick ly broadened, and gains which had been scored at the opening were much more than wiped out, the market at one time
