Anderson and Joseph Jjetiff Accused of Kxceediug Scale Set by Equalization Board. Two retail yesterday by grocers were United States Alexander on complaints issued by United States Attorney Humphreys charging: them with profiteering in the sale of sugar. The two grocers, who were the first to be arrested on direct charges of profiteering in Port land, were A. W. Anderson, East Twenty-fourth street and Broadway, and Joseph Letiff, a grocer at 274 Yamhill street. Letiff appeared before United States Commissioner Drake at the federal building yesterday. His bond was fixed at $500. but he was released last night on his own recognizance pend ing the filing of a proper bond today. Mr. Anderson, who was not notified of the charge until late yesterday, save assurance that he would appear at Commissioner Drake's office this morning, where the warrant will be served on htm. Juatlee Agent Makn Purchann. Evidence against the two men was procured by Tom M. Word, agent of the department of justice, who was said to have made the sugar pur chases yesterday. Mr. Word's name was signed to the complaint which accused Mr. Anderson of selling sugar at 14 cents a pound retail, while he likewise appeared as complaining wit ness against Letiff. who was accused of exacting 14 cents a pound for sugar. The retail price for beet sugar in the Portland district . has been fixed at 13 cents by the federal sugar equalization board and the United Etates food administrator, and both' merchants against whom complaints were filed yesterday were accused of violating this edict, which was made under authority of the food control act. The food control act prohibits an unjust or unreasonable price for any article of necessity. Short Welgbt Also Charged. Not only was Mr. Letiff charging 14 cents a pound, it was alleged, but lie also sold short-weight sugar, ac cording to Mr. Humphreys, who said he found a two-pound package I'm. ounces short upon careful weighing. Complaints against these two gro cers came from housewives and not from the Portland fair-price commit tee. After the complaints had been made to him, Mr. Humphreys sent Mr. "Word to the two stores to purchase the sugar, and as a result of the in vestigator's purchases the charges of the housewives were in every way verified, said Mr. Humphreys. "Ever since I took office as United States attorney I have investigated scores of complaints of alleged profit eering and have devoted many hours personally to running down many of these complaints," said Mr. Hum phreys yesterday. Profiteering Halt Proposed. "From the very outset I have given the public positive assurance that this office would prosecute every case of profiteering when the evidence justi fied this course of action. These are the first cases where earlier suspi cions have been confirmed, and conse quently these two grocers are the first to be arrested in this state on profiteering charges. "But I want to reiterate what 1 have said before, and that is that I will continue to investigate all charges brought to me by housewives or any other persons, to the end that profiteering shall be brought to a top." Mr. Humphreys said that the two eases which resulted in arrests yes terday will be presented within the next few days to the new federal grand jury, which is now in session. Any other complaints by Portland peo ple will be placed before the grand jury If the evidence justifies such action, added Mr. Humphreys. WRECK BODY IDENTIFIED Signet Ring Worn by A. R.

Tom Terriss was director. The picture is an adaptation from the famous play of the same name by Clyde Fitch. The cigarette scene takes place when Dick Sterling, a character played by Hugh Huntley, a well known English actor, is forced to make a confession of his peculations with the bonds and funds intrusted to him by his friends. The man is filled with cowardice. His friends, lawyers and business in vestigators surround him in a spa clous room at the home of one of his victims. They have him cornered and demand a full explanation. Mr. Terriss, the director, is believed to have accomplished one of the most unusual feats known to motion pic ture photography in registering this scene on the screen. The accomplish ment confers high credit upon the costly, fast, sensitive lenses of the camera used. The Climbers" is an unusual pic ture in many respects. Its scenes are laid 'mid grand surroundings at Bay shore. Long island. . The important members of its cast are in several cases the same ones who played the roles in the original stage production. Vitagraph Is said to have expended a small fortune on the settings used in this picture. They include a great hotel, sunken gardens, several ex clusive Fifth avenue residences and many Interior settings of extreme richness. Screen Gossip.

FACE TREASON TRIAL Filing of Charges in Portland Is Intimated. GRAND JURY PROBE IS ON Communist Literature Calling oi Labor to Refuse to Load Arms for V. S. Soldiers Is Cited. Intimation that federal charges of treason, which involve the death pen alty, may be filed against local "red" leaders who were the principals in the group of communist labor party ad herents in Portland, was made yes terday by prosecuting officials as a result of Investigations which have been carried on day and night since the federal raids netted 40 citizens and 11 aliens who were known to be members of thi3 radical and un-American organization. It was pointed out yesterday at the federal building that the printed propaganda of the communist labor party was sufficient evidence upon which to base charges of treason against the leaders of this party which the government has learned was attempting to overthrow tne United States government. Treasonable Acts Cited. Some of the literature of the or ganization calls upon all workers to refuse to load ships upon which sup plies or ammunition are to be sent to American soldiers in Russia. These American soldiers, it was pointed out. were sent to Russia by the United States government to protect Ameri can Interests in that Country, and by refusing to assist in sending supplies to these soldiers the communist labor people were giving aid to an enemy, according to federal authorities. A man who gives aid to the enemy is guilty of treason, according to the wording of the federal law. Treason can be punished by death unless the court should will otherwise. Allen Evidence Prepared. Local government officials are shaping their evidence against the alien reds for presentation to immi gration officials for deportation pro ceedings' against the It foreigners, while the state grand Jury, undier the direction of District Attorney Evans, has al-eady started its Investigation into the activity of the American members of the communist labor party. William Bryon, chief of the depart ment of Justice of this district, was one of the first to be called before the state grand Jury yesterday morn ing. He detailed the mass of evidence which the government has been col lecting against the communist labor party for the past several months. and presented all the data upon which the government is basing its conten tion that membership in the party is sufficient to warrant the deportation of alien reds. Grand Jury Inspects Records. The state grand Jury yesterday had before it much of the literature, offi cial records and other propaganda of the Portland branch of the communist labor party which was taken in the raid on its headquarters, 131 li Second street, last Friday night. Criminal syndicalism Indictments will bf returned by the state grand Jury If It finds the evidence suffi cient for holding the communists on this charge. The criminal syndicalism act. which was passed at the last legislative session, defines criminal syndicalism as the doctrine which advocates crime, physical violence, arson, de struction of property, sabotage or other unlawful acts or methods as a means of effecting or accomplishing industrial or political ends by In dustrial or political revolution, or for profit. The law likewise provides that any person who teaches this doctrine or any person who distributes, publishes or edits literature advocating or teaching this doctrine is equally guilty. Membership Held Offense. The United States attorney-general and other government officials at Washington have held that the charter itself of the communist labor party advocates the overthrow, by violence or revolution of the United States government, and in view of this interpretation of the purposes of the organization by federal authorities, Mr. Evans believes that the state criminal syndicalism law covers the present charges against the local com munists. That the legislators, last winter. were aware of the present critical situation so far as the radical ele ment is concerned, is indicated by the wording of the emergency clause which made the act effective Imme diately upon its passage and ap proval by the governor. This clause reads: "It appearing that there is a very active element within this state which Is determined If possible to overthrow our existing political structure, destroy our In1 dustrlal and economic institutions, disrupt our labor organizations and bring ruin and chaos to our people by organizing all lawless and dissatis fied elements which they may be able to gather here and teach. Instruct and Incite crime and destroy property, this act Is necessary for the imme diate- preservation of the public peace, health and safety." Ifceportatlan Hnrinn Dae Today. Hearings on the deportation charges of the 11 aliens will start today, ac cording to announcement by Immigra tion officials yesterday. Victor Saullt. who represented the communists of Oregon at the national convention in Chicago a year sgo, will be one of the first to come before the Immlgra tion officials. His wife. Julia, the only woman taken in the federal raids, will also receive an early hearing. The aliens will have the privilege of summoning any or all witnesses they may desire and will have an tnorlty to come rorward with any other evidence which they desire pro duced at their hearings. After the hearings have been closed, the papers will be forwarded to Immigration officials at Washington, D. C , where the flml decisions will be made.
