PREPARE TO OFFER CHARGES OF FRAUD AGAINST OFFICIALS Representatives Johnson and Woodruff Claim to Have Evidence in Case of Secretary of War Weeks. SEE COLLUSION FOR PRIVATE GAINS
Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. WASHINGTON, April 11.—Representative Johnson of South Dakota and Representative Woodruff of Michigan, both Republicans, are prepared to present to the House charges of fraud and collusion with outside interests for private gain against Secretary of War Weeks and other government officials. The attorney general and the alien property custodian, it was said today, will be mentioned in the mass of evidence gathered by the two members, who will also charge the officials with having smothered investigations of a subcommittee of which Representative Johnson was chairman. after inquiries originally directed at officials of the Wilson administration threatened the newly appointed Republican officials with exposure. Failure of Congress to vote a thorough investigation of the charges, it was learned today, will only force the two members to open a renewed attaek with still more serious charges, which they would prefer to have an official probe reveal. That eventuality, too. would bring impeachment action against Secretary Retired Lawyer Dies DAVID A1.1.11N ROACH. David Alien Roach, retired lawyer, died early this morning at his home, 3241 I'ark avenue. Mr. Roach was horn on a Parke . ounty farm. July 13, 1843.

Weeks, men close to the two members state. Secretary Weeks will to charged with having accumulated millions on war con tracts and post-war transactions of the Government. The two members are said to be in possession of sufficient information to justify charges. Secretary Weeks received a big block of Bosch Magneto stock when that firm was sold. Other deals also will be mentioned. Representative Johnson was chairman of a subcommittee investigating war department expenditures when the change in Administration was e "ected. Continuation of their work was slopped largely by so much repeated profanity of “General Hell and Marla” Dawes in a speech. The Department of Justice was authorized r*> continue the inquiry, but the two members, who have kept on with a personal investigation, are said to have that some of the investigators, assured the Attorney General was determined to drop the probe, resigned. I'nder general debute on the naval appropriation bill, tlie two members expect to get an hour each to present their ehnrge.s They will ask for another com mittce investigation of the War Department and the other officials to be named to determine the truth or falsity of the charges. They will ask for another cornafter a year's personal search for facts. Ex-service members have known of the charges to be presented by Represent a- - Johnson and Woodruff for some time, and are said to lie ready to support them in their demand for nn investigation. Members of the veterans’ group, too, say Senator Borah and Senator Johnson have been in close touch with the ease. —Copyright, 1922, by Public Ledger Company.
