Universal Service Correspondent. Washington, Dec. 4.—Formal public hearings on the Keller resolution for impeachment of Attorney General Daugherty will be started by the House Judiciary committee Tuesday morning, December 12. at 10 o'clock. The committee in response to the demand of Representative Keller ob tained by special resolution Monday afternoon power to subpena wit nesses, administer oaths and requiie the (submission of documents and papers in the files of the department of Justice requested by the author of the Impeachment charges. The resolution was offered by Chairman Volstead. The vote was unanimous. Debate Acrimonious. This course of procedure was de termined upon by the committee nfter an acrimonious 40-minute session, at which Representative Keller and his counsel, Jackson H. Ralston, of Washington, had flatly refused to: proceed with the offering of testi mony until authority to make the hearings official was obtained. First among the 14 specific charges presented to the committee by Repre sentative Keller will be the group dealing with alleged refusal and neg lect by Attorney General Daugherty to enforce anti-trust laws, particu larly in cases referred to the depart ment of Justice for action by the fed eral trade commission. Besides the evidence turned over to the department of justice by the commission charging violations of these statutes by more than 30 cor porations, which Mr. Keller asserted would be sufficient to substantiate these specifications. Mr. Ralston sub mitted the names of these two wit nesses, whom he asked to have sub peuaed: v Gives Names of Witnesses. Donald R. Richberg,- attorney, of Chicago, who represented the railway labor unions In their fight on the in junction obtained by Alforney Gen eral Daugherty in the recent rail strike, and Thomas Stevenson, a Cleveland lawyer. Pressed by Chairman Volstead for the names of witnesses he proposed to call in support of the other charges, Mr. Ralston named Chief Justice Taft, Former Attorney General Wieke.' sham, Samuel Gompers and Gompera’ secretary, Guy Oyster. In his letter to the committee submitting Ills spec ifications Representative Keller stated these four men would be asked to testify in substantiation of his charges that Mr. Daugherty knowingly has appointed "untrustworthy and cor rupt” men to places of great respon sibility. Daugherty Issues Denial. Daugherty Sunday sent a scorching, defiant 'denial to every charge con tained in Representative Keller's charge of impeachment now beforem congress. He declared that radicals and war grafters are engineering the case in nr. effort to learn what the depart ment of justice has against them and flatly declined to submit to the com mittee the documents asked for. He strenuously defended his action ir. asking for a sweeping injunction during the railway strike. He said that the conditions at the time left him no other course. To the question of influence of the Morgan interests he said that wealth in no way influ enced him and had nothing to do with his actions. Regarding Morse Case. Mr. Daugherty declared that the case of C. W. Morse, indicted for shipping fraiftls, was directed by and still is under the direction of the I United States shipping board. His I role in this is entirely formal, he says. He brands as “knowingly false anjl untrue” the charge that he failed to act against the so-called dye trust. There are 14 specifications In the in dictment and Mr. Daugherty treats with each in a detailed denia*. In refusing to submit the dope- ‘ ment records in.130 cases, inclu the reports of the bureau of inves tlon, all correspondence and docu ments, he said It ‘‘would be violative of the rights of those whose confi dence, as muny of these reflect, were given to the government upon the ex press understanding that the confi dence would not be violated.” Alleges Plot of Antis. "Certain important matters which involve the vital interests of the gov ernment,” he says, "are now in pro cess of presentation to the proper tribunals, praying for relief.” Mr. Daugherty concludes: "The attorney general cannot es cape the conclusion that the sole ob ject and purpose of the proceeding Is not to remove him from office, but is in the nature avowedly an attempt to compel the publication and the disclosure in advance of the evidence upon which the government relied ar:d must rely in the prosecution and investigation of cases of the greatest importance to the government."

Washington, Dec. 4 (U. P.)—The newly formed progressive bloc will face Its first test In the session of congress which met at noon Monday. Rural credits legislation is be enacted this winter. Other measures dealing with the welfare of the farm ers are probable. Under the leadership of Senator Watson, Indiana, Harding adminis tration forces have worked out an agricultural program which will be presented by President Harding, probably in his annual message on Tuesday or later. First Test of Power. The progressives also have an agri cultural program, dlferring In es sential particulars from that pro posed by the administration. The first test of progressive power therefore, probably will come upon this matter. The progressives do not expect too much at this session. They will not reach their full strength in either house until after March 4. They are, however, powerful enough in the sen ate to put up a sturdy fight for their proposals. What appenrs likely to happen is compromise legislation, in which some administration ideas and some progressive ones will appeap. The progressives are not opposed to the proposed administration plan, but they hold it does not go far enough, nor hit directly at the cause of agri cultural Ills. They would gladly take the administration bill or .bills with out change rather than get nothing for the farmer. Both the congressional and public groups of progressives will plunge at once at the work outlined at the Fri day and aSturday conferences here. Session Lasts to March 4. f With a brief 10 minute interval, congress Monday ended its extraor dinary session and at noon entered upon Its regular December session. It is the fourth assembling of the GTtli congress, and Its last. The session will last until March 4, when the present congress expires by law. Preparatorv to the main routine of business of the- session—passage of appropriation bills for all govern ment departments—President Hard ing transmitted his budget message, setting forth the needs of the govern ment as complied by the budget bur eau. This message was a letter from Mr. Harding transmitting the recom mendations of Budget Director Lord. It was read in both houses. Regular Message Later. The president's annual legislative message will be read in person be fcie a Joint session of Houso and Senate tomorrow or possibly later in the week. This message is looked up on as one of the most important to which Mr. Harding has addressed himself, as he must now meet a strengthened progressive bioc. with a legislative program which It will insist upon, even if that calls for sidetracking measures sought by the administration. As soon as the Senate convened. Senator Lodge said that he had been instructed that the Dyer bill would not be pressed between now and March 4. Senator Underwood, leader of the filibuster, then announced the fight would bo ended. The first business to be transacted since last Monday when the filibuster was begun in the Senate was refer ence of the ship subsidy bill to the Senate commerce committee. The nomination of Pierce Butler, St. Paul attorney, to be an associate justice of tile supreme court failed of confirmation in the close of the extra cession and a renomination in the reg ular session was made necessary. Senators LaFellette, republican. Wis consin, and Norris, republican, Ne braska, objected to immediate con firmation and forced over the nomina tion. A statement opposing Mr. Butler’s confirmation, filed recently witii the Judiciary committee, was referred to by Senator LaFoliette and be was Joined by Senator Norris In demand ing that the persons making the statement be given a hearing. Under these circumstances, the leaders de cided to attempt no action today. The statement relates to Mr. But ler’s alleged connection with railroads and other corporations and also with political leaders in his home city. Confirm 1,700. The Senate c-onflrmecr about 1,700 other appointments. Including 1,500 army officers. Among the latter were seven majors and 11 brigadier gener als and about 600 officers of lower grades who would have been dropped from the army if the Senate had not acted on their names before the ad journment of the special session. Most of these were demotions. Among the nominations con firmed was that of Miss Luclle At cherson. of Columbus, Ohio, to be sec retary of legation. She is the first woman ever appointed to the diplo matic corps. JAPANESE RED CROSS IS TO HELP REFUGEES Toklo, Dec. 4 (A.
