Attornev General Daugherty in a letter to day to Senator Pepper of Pennsyl vania declared his retirement 'voluntary or otherwise, would b concession of the truth of all the baseless charges" against him. He added he never would be party to such a proceeding. In the face. of the story of oil trading the attorney general has remained adament in his deternn nation not to quit the cabinet. He spent most ot today at work at bis hotel on war fraud cases and told intimates that he had no intention ot resigning. He takes the position that he is guilty of no wrongdoing and has used no confidential ornclal in formation as the basis of stock in vestments. The view of republican senators who want Mr. Daugherty to retire is that such a prolonged inquiry oven it the attorney general event - ually were found entirely blame' less, might further undermine public confidence and prove con tinually embarrassing to the pres ident.
