FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9. 19Z1. ' THE ? OREGON - DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND. OREGON DAUGHERTY W IN FREAR ATTACK. OH DYE EMBARGO Washington, Sept WASHING ' TON BUREAU OF. THE JOURNAL) .On July II. 1921. Representative Jmim : A. Frear of Wisconsin, prominent Re publican ot the ways and means com mittee, wrote a letter to Harry M. Daug-herty. attorney general. Although the distance between their offices is lit G more than a mile, and although i Ppstmaster General Hays has human ised the postal service, Frear has re . celved no answer. Frear la Inclined to suspect that it Is noi uie isuit or the postal service Daugherty Is lust too hu Fact l Mr. Frear'a letter contained prominent mention of the dye monopoly and suggested that while the attorney genera is out prosecitlng war con tractors, he should give attention to what the Wisconsin congressman calls most nagrant case of all." Fa EAR HAS DATA - - Frear, who has been giving the dye affair considerable attention himaeif nr. fared to place the Information he has ' gathered in the bands of the attorney general. "The great power and Influence of the chemical monopoly will be thrown ' against any effort to bom Del restitution - to the government of many millions of dollars in property, for which the stock holders have only 2 per cent value," he wrote, "and this sam power that sought to- force validation by congress ot this sale (of dyeatuff patents), and spent wvr iuu,wu tor lobbying In order to se cure dye legislation, will attempt to reaca administrative as well as leglsla tlve action. Since Mr. Frear wrote this lettr to 1 Daugherty he has written another to - benator Boies Penrose, chairman of the finance committee of the senate, where - the battle has since been raging over the . question of Imposing an embargo on dyes, a plan rged by the Chemical Jt ounaatlon. the head of the dye mo nopoly. but rejected by the. house of representatives. OTHERS SEND LETTERS la this later letter Frear points out mat secretary of War Weeka and Sec retary of the Navy Denby have been persuaded to write letters to the senate eommlttee In support of an embargo. Tear nad said in his letter to Daurh erty that the dye trust "will attempt to reacn administrative as well aaJegisla tive action." Alluding to the letters of weeks and Denby, the congressman - says : "1 have no fear of their Influence (that Is, the dye Interests) either In your , committee or In the body you represent but I do express concern over any power - that can secure such letters from such " high sources, and, more Important, that apparently has endeavored to smother ; efforts made' to have . the government ' brine legal proceedings to set uide the ' Chemical Foundation company." . , He Informed Penrose about his diffi culty In hearing from Daugherty, re ; marking that It is Impossible to believe that this Is due to aa oversight. The let ter to Daugherty especially had for its ': subject a resolution he had introduced , In the house requesting the attorney general to , bring suit to set aside thtf 1 Chemical Foundation sale on the ground : of fraud and to recover rights and f royalties.' The resolution charged : aiex PROPERTY' SOLD . That in 1919 the alien property cus- i todlan sold 4000 alien chemical and dye , patents to the Chemical Foundation ; ..that the sale was arranged by Francis P. Qarvan, Joseph H. Choate Jr. and -Ramsey Hogust, who were at that time r officials of the bureau of Investigation ' for the government and at the same time president, attorney and patent ad viser of the Foundation company ; that they prepared an order which permitted the sale at 1250.000 for property worth not less than $10,000,000; that they ar ranged for private sale and without competition purchased the property for their company. The public complains over punish ment of 'little fellows.'" said Frear's letter to Daugherty. "and those skeptical Of motives often question prosecutions . that may serve political ends, but the case presented by the resolution is bi partisan in character; It challenges tne confidence of the people in the Integrity of public officials ; and It affects promi nent ex-offlclals wvho set an example of publio irresponsibility before their sub ordinates and before the country."

(WASHING TON BUREAU OF THE JOURNAL.) Until a few days ago It had been ex pected that a bill would be reported at the present sesmon of congress for con structlon of additions to postoffice build ings . where space is congested. The .. treasury and postoffice departments are preparing a list of such cities -for pre ferred treatment. Salem. Or., la o seribed as one of the offices to be in eluded. Republican members of the house com1 mltteer on public buildings, however, have held a quiet meeting and decided that they will not report an omnibus bill 'to include these offices, fearing that they rouid not head off the hungry demand for ether towns not included in the de- . partment reoommendstions. In exceptional cases. It is said, separ ate bills for relief may be reported, but each town s case will have to stand by Itfcelf. OLDSMOBILE PRICES REDUCED TO ROCK-BOTTOM See SUNDAY Paper.
