Daugherty Reports
on War Profiteers
!' (Continued from Paso On.)
that the persons and corporations
who took advantage of the extra
ordinary opportunities afforded' by
the war to defraud and despoil the
government should be vigorously
prosecuted to the full extent of the
law and should be made to disgorge
the unholy profits of their treasonable
conduct," - said Mr. Daugherty.
"These crimes and offenses, are all
the more reprehensible when, com
mitted or connived at by sworn of
f-cere and employes of the govern.
niitt.
"The transactions out of which the
rases grew, in a vast majority of in
stances, lock place during the pre
ceding administration.- .Naturally lit
tie or nothing was done during that
administration to bring these matters
to tight. As the country will soon
have reason to know, influential per-
un.ges in the government who had
knowtldge of these transactions and
were in petition to make disclosure,
were personally Interested m con
ceslmg them. It is not to be won
dered, therefore, that upon coming
into office I found -not only that
practically nothing had been done in
the way of investigating and prose
cuting these offenses, but that no
macninery naa oeen set up tor
handling the caes in an orderly arid
systematic way.
Two Cases Ready.
Mr. Daugherty stated that two
rases of "hrst magnitude are ready
for prompt submission'' and that
others are in the "course of prepara
tioii." He stated that government
claims in civil actions, without cle
ment of fraud, aggregated about
$100,000,000. The War department,
with the assistance of the Depart
ment of Justice, has already recog
nized millions of dollars in overpay
ments to contractors.
Taking uo the case of the Lincoln
Motor comoany. Mr. Daushertv
stated that the government's claim for
$0,000,000 had been tiled, after delay
necessitated by a request of the re
ceiver for a further hearing.
"The record of the Deoartment of
Justice calls for no apology and none
is intended." Mr. Daugherty conclud
ed. "The work has been pressed to
the fullest extent that the funds at
my disposal would permit. The
plans are laid, the work is under way
and all cases will be energetically
prosecuted."
Representative Woodruff said he
was "not optimistic", of increased ac
tivity in the Department of Justice.
Tie insisted that the case against the
Lincoln Motor company was in such
shape as to warrant the beginning
of proceedings ag.inst it months ago.
It was placed in the hands of the
United States attorney at Detroit, he
said, but was brought back to Wash
ington "at the request of two United
States senators.
"Ail Fixed," Rumor.
Since that time," Woodruff de
clared, "attorneys of the company
have been whispering around that
they have the case 'all fixed up.'"
Woodruff . asserted also that the
case agamst the Wright-Martin com
pany was withdrawn from the hands
of the United States attorney in New
York at the request of secretary of
War Weeks.
Replying to Mr. Daugherty s state
ment that prosecution has been hand
icapped by lack of funds, Mr. Wood
ruff stated that Representative Gra
ham, Illinois, chairman of the com
mittee which investigated war ex
penditures, advised Daugherty to ask
congress for more money six months
ago.
Jiow Daugherty is trying to pass
the buck . to congress, ' said' Mr.
Woodruff. . : ;
Shipper Realizes Profit j
of $4,50 a Head on Lambs
. M. Logan came in from Morrill
yesterday with a shipment of Iambs
forvhich he received the top price of
the day, $14.50 a hundred. He said
he had fed about 1,200 head and had
a profit of $4.50 a head. , - -
"My profit included the sale of the
wool which' has been contracted for,"
said Mr. Logan. "Sugar; beets are
all in in my section and spring farm
ing has prospered pretty well. The
potato, acreage will be larger than
usual. From investigation and -discussion
with other .farmers . I find
there will be a cattle shortage in the
western part of Nebraska and other
western states." , , ;

' Allied Memorandum.
Genoa. May 9.-(By A. r.)-Eg-
llsh aud Italian delegates to the eco
nomic couference met today with
members of the Russian delegation
and began working out a new
formula concerning the restoration of
foreign property in Russia, said an
announcement this afternoon by the
trench delegation. Ihe announce
ment said it was hoped to devise a
new clause in the Russian memo
randum which would satisfy Del
giuni. therefore. France.
Dr. Wirth. the German chan
cellor. Dr. Walter Rathenau. the
foreign minister and other members
of the German delegation, displayed
activity today in arr effort to induce
the Russians to give the memoran
dum from the allies such an answer
as would not justify France and
Belgium withdrawing from the con
ference. Such a withdrawal, the
Germans argued, would only serve
the interests of Russia's enemies.
Ihe correspondent for the eve
ning News of London said he liad
learned that M. Tchitcheriu had re
ceived wireless instructions from
Moscow insisting that the Russian
reply must be so framed as to avoid
an immediate breaking up of the con-
tcrence.
Belgium is the center of the fierce
controversy over the Russian ques
tion. It is Belgium's objection to
clause seven in the allied memoran
dum to the Russians behind which
France is standing in its opposition to
the meorandum. Consequently all
eyes in Genoa are on Belgium and M.
Jaspar, foreign minister and chair
man of the Belgian delegation.

George Flener of Burr, Nf b.,
Shows No Emotion Over
Howard Murder Ar
cuiation.
Nebraska City, May 9. (Special.)
The preliminary hearing el George
Flosner, in connection with the
murder of Joshua Howard at Burr
on April ?. was begun in county
court yesterday with D. V. Living
ston appearing as counsel for the
defense.
The court granted continuance
until next Friday.
Flessner appeared to be the least
concerned of any one in the court
room.
Only a few witnesses were exam
ined. the most important, perhaps, be
ing Mr. EUenhaucr, hardware nier
chant of the village of Burr, who
testified to the purchase of a flash
light at his store by Flessner Sat
urday night, April 29. The murder
is supposed to have been committed
on Saturday afternoon.
t Flessner, who sat behind his at
torney during the hearing, appeared
to be worried only over, a liquor
charge. A small vial of liquor was
found st his' home when he wss ar
rested. A sentence of sixty days
in the county jail does not appeal
to him.
Sheriff Fischer and Deputy Ernest
Hird testified as to conditions at
the home of Howard the day of the
murder and of arresting and bring
ing l'lessner to Nebraska City.
lhere is no longer fever-heat in
terest in the case at Burr. The feel
ing is strong, however, that Fless
ner is the guilty man, and should
be punished in accordance with the
law, . ;

This evening the girls of the Lin

delegation of about 43 from Omaha,
including Miss Ksthrine O'Brien, the
Burlington candidate, will attend.
A box of apples sold at auction at
the Burlington dance Saturday eve
ning was returned by the winner, and
will go for more votes at the dance
to be held in the freight house next
Saturday evening.
Withdrawals Go To Fund.
In case any candidate withdraws,
all votes credited to her go to swell
the general total and become dead
so far as being credited to any can
didate. Votes once cast for any
particular nominee, cannot be trans
ferred to any other nominee. It is
however, permissible for any candi
date who withdraws to swing the
support of her , organization and
friends to any other candidate for
future voting.
There seems to be a misunder
standing in regard to the funds
which are being collected by candi
dates in the Good Will election. The
money collected goes to the work of
Ihe American Committee In Devas
tated Fume.
It Is coutiibuted for this purpose
