Political Influence
Not 10 Bar Justice,
Murphy Declares
Question on Pardon
For Mortgage Officials
Inspires Remark

Attorney General Murphy de-
clared today that political influences,
no matter how important, are not
"going to dominate the administra-
ton of justice"
His remark was prompted at his
press conference by questions con-
corning the pardon application Of
three convicted New York mortgage
company officials. Reports have been
current that strong pressure is being
exerted to get the men pardoned,
although they have not yet served
any part of their sentence.
The Attorney General revealed he
had forwarded his recommendation
on the pardon application to Presi-
dent Roosevelt. He declined to make
known its nature.
Cites Department Rule.
He said it has been the rule of
the department not to recommend
pardons where no part Of the SEN
tence has been served and added
he thinks it is good rule He
remarked that pardoning power of
the President, however, can be in
voked any time he chooses.
The New York case involves three
officials of the State Title g. Mort
gage Co. of New York who were
convicted in January, 1898, of using
the mails to defraud in connection
with the operation of the company's
business. The men were John A.
billiard, president, sentenced to a
year and six months in prison: Max
Koven, vice president, to a year and
a day, and Edmund J. Donegan, vice
president, a year and a day.
Their sentence was affirmed by the
United States Circuit Court of Ap-
epals. and their petition for a Su-
preme Court review of the case was
denied.
Opposes Revealing Names.
Mr.. Murphy also. said he opposes
revealing names of those indorsing
pardon applications until there is
pardon.
He revealed he had turned down
. request Of Representative White,
Republican, of Ohio for names of
those signing the application Of the
mortgage company officials. To
have granted the request, he ex-
planned, would have involved a de-
parture from administrative practice
followed so years in the department.
In his comments, the Attorney
General referred to the drive being
made, 'in other quarters" to remove
political influences from the admin
istration of justice. He mentioned
the need for placing marshals under
civil service to release them from
being "adjuncts' of local political
groups.

them may not be penalized later, If
the order is overruled by the court.
Exempt telephone switchboard

many States would enact similar
wage-hour legislation when the
newness wears of the idea. Already
five States have passed laws spe-
cif1cally authorizing their labor de-
partments to Cooperate with the
Federal Wage Hour Division on en-
