AMUNDSEN GIVES UP 1

DASH
0 NORTH POLE
Exploration Party Reports
Steamer Ice-Bound.
RADIO MESSAGES MEAGER
So Information Given as to Con
dition ot Members Xor Rea
sons for Turning Back.
WASHINGTON", April 26. The
Arnundaen polar exploration party in
the steamer Maud is icebound at the
mouth of Koiyma river, Siberia, and
awaiting an opportunity to sail south,
it was indicated in radio dispatches
made public today at the navy de
partment. Amundsen, who discovered
the south pole, apparently haL aban
doned his attempt to reach the north
pole.
The expedition "left Dixon island in
the White sea in September, 1918,
and had. not since been heard from
until the navy radio station at Cor
dova, Alaska, established communi
cation with the party recently. The
first message was picked up March
25 from the station on St. Paul'B
island. It said:
"St. Paul reports S. Q. S. from Rus
sian station at Anadyr stating
Amundson expedition icebound in the
Kolyma river and requesting, we han
dle important dispatches."
Later radio messages were intro
chanpred between Amundsen and his
family in Norway, but no information
reKardinff the condition of the mem
bers of the expedition or the reason
for turning back were given.
A dispatch today in answer to a
message to the Cordova station ask
ing for all available information said
a messenger had started south .and
that Amundsen intended to take the
steamer Victoria at Nome, Alaska, for
Seattle, but that the time would de
pend on when the expedition could
clear the ice. This message came
from the Anadyr, Siberia, station,
several hundred miles from the mouth
of the Kolyma river.
Navy department officials said It
was probable that Maud, Amundsen's
ship, was still icebound in the Kolyma
river and that a party has been sent
overland to the trading post radio
station on Anadyr bay to establish
communication with the world.
PROBE IS HELD POLITICAL
(Continued From "lrt Page.)
motion were filed on behalf of the
two shipbuilding plants by W. Lair
Thompson and Dan J. Malarkey, coun
sel for the corporations, One affi
davits, signed by J. R. Bowles, presi
dent of the Northwest Steel company,
sets forth that it would compel the
gigantic plant to shut down if it were
required to produce all its records
and accounts before the grand jury.
The application also makes denial
of the charge of Investigator Wheeler
that access to the books and records
of the cotnpany was denied. In this
connection the affidavit states:
"The rac-ts are that the Northwest
Steel company, through its attorney,
W. Lair Thompson, tendered tb. the
United States attorney the privilege
of personally examining each and
every book and record and document
and item of correspondence of what
ever nature in the possession of the
Northwest Steel company, and that
thereafter in response to a request
that George G.. Wheeler and othe
special agents be permitted to in
spect the books of the company. Its
attorney offered to permit one chief
accountant with two assistants to
Inspect and make copies of any and
. every book and document and corre
spondence and record and other paper
of the Northwest Steel company
which was material or pertinent to
any matter under investigation upon
condition that the steel company
should at the same time have an ac
countant with two assistants present
at such inspection."
Limited Offer Declined.
A similar answer and offer of in
spection is contained in the answer
filed on behalf of the Columbia River
.Shipbuilding corporation.
:. In his opening statement to the
coiirt. United States Attorney Hum
? phreys said the shipyard officials had
offered to permit an inspection of
all records of the corporations per
taining to the cost plus contracts,
but that he was told if they were al
lowed to inspect these records they
must agree not to push the investi
gation intb other .'Channels. He said
this proffer was declined.
Hen L. Moore, special assistant to
the United States attorney-general,
said that a specific request for the
production of these records hal been
made by the federal grand jhiry. He
sal.d that evidence of irregularities
already had been placed before the
grand jurors through testimony of
fered last week. .
Penalties Are ' Mentioned.
Reference . was made to the fact
that less than $10,000 was assessed
in penalties against the Northwest
Steel compan'y despite the fact that
a total of 491 days' extension in time
. in the completion of emergency fleet
corporation vessels had been granted.
The Columbia Rivr. . Shipbuilding
corporation, he said, "had gotten 222
days' eKtension. of time, but had re
ceived $260,000 in bonuses. Construc
tion extras, he asserted, amounted
to in excess of J1.O00.000. He in
sisted the grand jury has a right to
examine every item in connection
i with the ' paymentof these construc
' tion extras, bonuses and other
amounts, both under direct contracts
and the cost plus system.
Lair Thompson, in meeting this
been reported to him' by the first'
agent. This caused the officials, he
said, to be wary of these govern-'
ment detectives, and to refuse to let
the special agents make an indis
criminate inspection of 'the books and
records. -
Sweeping Rlcbt Denied.
Both Attorneys Malarkey and
Thompson produced a great number
of leral authorities to uphold their
contention that Instead of being a
subpena duces tecum, the motion of
the United States attorney is nothing
more than a demand for a search
warrant to prowl through every pri
vate paper and record of the plant
on a 'politically-inspired "fishing ex
pedition" to try to find something ir
regular. They denied that the grand
jury had such a sweeping' right, and
numerous decisions of the United
States supreme court were read in
support' of their contention
In meeting the charge of Special
Prosecutor Moore that the govern
ment was suspicious of the payment
of the bonuses to the two local ship
building plants, ' Attorney Malarkey
roundly scored the department of jus
tice for seeking to point the finger
of suspicion at patriotic corporations
which had rightfully won bonuses be
cause they had performed a .duty
well. , .
"Of course we made bonuses, and
were proud to get them," he shouted.
"The fact is, if-your honor please,
that when the war was on and when
the cry was for ships and more ships
just as fast as they could be built,
and when the government, through
the emergency fleet corporation, was
pounding everybody Ion the back to
abandon everything else and get out
ships to combat the German subma
rines, there is not a plant in . the
length and breadth of this land that
did better work than the Northwest
Steel company and the Columbia
River Shipbuilding corporation, and
credit is to be given to them for
bringing that credit and that reputa
tion to the city of Portland."
Henry Case la Mentioned.
And again during the course of
his argument Mr. Malarkey chal
lenged the right and motives of the
department of justice operatives to
demand possession of these private
corporation records.
"I don't know this special prose
cutor. Mr. Moore," he said, "nor do
I want to utter one word acralnst him
but I want to say that I for one do not
know that he is not a man of the type
of Francis J. Heney, and neither do
l know whether or not this special
agent. Wheeler, is another William
J. Burns. But we all know of the
things which were done in this dis
trict of Oregon when Heney and
Burns started proceedings with the
brass band of publicity, as is being
done In this case." '
At the close of the arsrument Judee
Bean partly indicated his sentiment
toward the proceeding when he
quired of United States, Attorney
Humphreys whether or not it was the
intention to have the grand jury ex
amine all the records, if they should
be ordered produced, or whether the
grand jury would turn them over to
more expert hands for examination.
Court Inquires Purpose.
"Is it the purpose that the grand
jury go through these records and
determine what the facts are. If the
subpena is issued, or is it the purpose
for the grand Jury or someone else
representing the government to place
these in the Tiands of experts to ex
amine?" inquired the court.
"To be frank about it," he contin
ued, "I don't understand there Is any
law by which a subpena duces tecum
can be issued requiring a party to
produce papers and documents before
a grand jury in order that they may
Ito' into the possession of somebody
else for the purpose of inspection and
making extracts therefrom.
The futility of attempting to plaee
ail these books and records before
the grand Jury was shown In the affi
davits filed by the corporation heads
showing that each plant had records
weighing several tons and which
would more than fill the grand jury
room The records of one plant alone
it was asserted, would take one grand
juror alone at least one year to. read
If he read for eight hours a day.
The affidavits and oral arguments
likewise set forth that the two cor
porations now have settlements
reaching more than 11.000.000 with the
emergency fleet corporation and other

WASHINGTON. April 26. The su-
reme court announced its decision in
part of the long-pending anthracite
coal trust cases today. A four-to-three
pinion sustained a majority or tnr
government's charges of illegal co ru
ination against the .Heading com
pany, a Pennsylvania noiaing cor
poration, and certain or its rauroau
and coal subsidiaries, and ordered
their dissolution. Chief Justice v hits
and Associated Justices Holmes and
Vandevanter dissented, while Justices
McReynolds and Brandels " took no
part. - " -
Associated with the Heading com-
anies ah defendants were tne JL.e-
igh & Wllkesbarrer Coal company
nd the Lehigh Coal & Navigation,
company and the constant recurrence
of the words "Lehigh company
caused the opinion to exist that the
so-called Lehigh case, which actually
refers to the Lehigh Valley Railroad
company and which was argued last
fall with the Reading case, was Deing
decided also.
Error Later Discovered.
Dispatches saying the government
had also won its case against toe
Lehigh Valley Railroad company were
sent out and it was not until an hour
later, when copies of Justice Clarke s
opinion were made available, that it
was found- that the court -bad acted
on the Reading case alone. The court
concluded announcement of decisions
without reaching the Lehigh valley
railroad case.
The majority opinion . held the
holding company guilty of violation
of the Sherman anti-trust act, and
reversed federal court decrees ren
dered In Philadelphia n 1915 refusing
to sustain the government s charges
of monopoly, but directing separa
tion of the Central Railway of New
Jersey from its subsidiary coal com
pany, the Lehigh and Wilkesbarre
Coal company.
IiMnlu tion Is Ordered.
The dissolution was ordered by the
supreme court of the Reading com
pany, the l'hiladeipnia ana neaams
Railway company, the Philadelphia
and Reading Coal" and Iron company;
he .Central Railroad of New Jersey
and the Lehigh and Wilkesbarre Coal
company, maintained tnroush the
holding corporation, so that tney
would be entirely Independent of
each other. Disposition of the stock
and bonds of the companies held by
the Reading company also was directed.
The court, however, sustained low
er court decrees aDsoiving tne j-.e-
high Coal arrd Navigation company,
the Lehigh and New England Rail
road company and --the Lehigh and
Hudson River Railway company on
charges-? as to restrictive covenants
in mining leases with respect to tne
shippng of coal and refusing to order
the disassociation of the Phlladelpma
and Reading Coal and Iron company
Uknd the Lehigh and Wilkesbarre
Coal company, maintained through
the holding company.
The charges against directors ot
the, holding company, including the
late George K. Baer and Henry C.
Frlck, as well as George r . Baker,
Henry A. Dupont, Daniel Wlllard,
Henry P. McKean and Samuel Dick
son, who were alrw named as defend
ants, were .dismissed.
Other Companies Included.
Similar action was taken in regard
to the Wilmington & Northern rail
way companies. Injunctions restrain
ing enforcement of provisions insert
ed by the Reading & Wilkes BarreJ
Coal company in coal leases request
ing the lessee to ship all coal mined
by designated rail routes were made
permanent, the court condemning
such provisions as unlawful.
Justice Clarke in the majority opin
ion charged the Reading holding com
pany by an "adroit division of prop
erty and of corporate agency," with
purposely violating "in a flagrant
manner" the Sherman anti-trust act
and with suppressing commerce and
competition.
Domination Is Charged.
It was also declared to have ob
tained a "dominating contract"' not
only oyer two great competing coal
Interests as well as two great com
peting" interstate' common carriers,
but the court said this "dominating
power was not obtained by normal
expansion to ieet the demands of a
business growing as a result of su
perior and enterprising management,
but by deliberate, calculated purchase
for control.
The majority opinion referred to
the investigation conducted in 1915
by the Interstate commerce commis
sion Into the transportation of an
thracite coal, which, the court said.
"showed unlawful discrimination
against other coal shippers by the
holding company with the Reading
Coal company and by the Central
company with the Wilkes-Barre Coal
company," asserting "such favoritism
tends to discourage competition and
to unduly restrain commerce." ;
Chief Justice White rendered a
brief minority opinion, in which the
dissenting Justices contended that the
lower court should be sustained.

NEW JERSEY VOTES TODAY
Continued From Firwt Page.)
Other states to name delegates dur
ing the week are Arkansas, Idaho and
Washington. r
The entrance of a new organization
to the political field today Is likely
to cause leaders in both parties to
sit up and think. The new organiza
tion, which was formed here today.
Is to be known as the ex-service
men's national political vigilance
committee, with Colonel Grant T.
Trent of Rogersvllle, Tenn., elected
temporary chairman, and Private
George S. Carll of Indianapolis sec
retary. i Veterans Held Imorcd.
The formation of the ex-service
men's national political vigilance
committee appears to have been stim
ulated by the attacks made upon
General Leonard Wood by reason of
his military connection and also upon
General Pershing. The ex-service
men also feel outraged that the demo
cratic party in its consideration of
presidential ellgibles has entirely Ig
nored men who distinguished them
selves in the world war.
"It Is apparent that the old organ
ization leaders in both parties," said
Colonel Trent, "are preparing to
place the sign of 'no service men
need apply' on the doors of the Chi
cago and San Francisco conventions.
There is no orgamzaton of service
men which is making an effort to
secure proper representation in the
party councils of the men who won
the war.. A scanning of the list of
delegates already selected for both
national conventions reveals the
astounding fact that former service
men will have about as large a rep
resentation in the floor of the con
vention as the people of Guam. The
same condition obtains with respect
to the candidates nominated and
being considered for nomination for
state and county officers throughout
the country.
Leaders Held Responsible.

the most pror.iinent candidate for the
republican nomination, but the old-

even worse, as not one of the gallant
soldiers of the late war has even
presumed regard himself as eligible
for the democratic nomination.
"This conspiracy to eliminate the
soldiers from direct and active par
tlclpatlon In the affairs of the two
great political parties was conceived
and nut in operation even while the
war was still raging. It will De re
membered that no fcerlous effort was
made by either of the two parties to
extend the rights of suffrage to the
4,600,000 men who were In the serv

ment English soldiers and sailors ex

"The 4,500,000 men upon discharge
from the service found that -the or
ganizations of their respective par
ties were. In the hands of a few men
who stayed at home. What our com
mittee wishes to do Is to force some
recognition for ex-service men in the
affairs of both parties. These men
learned to stand on their feet during
the great emergency and their calm
judgment will be Invaluable' not only
to the political parties but to the
country as a whole. We intend to
have ex-service men affiliated with
both political parties on our commit
tee and conduct our organization
along these lines."
