PALMER VIOLATED LAW, SAYS REPORT

' OF SUGAR PROBERS

At Richmond Theatre

WASHINGTON, June 3. The sugar Investigating committee in a majority report presented to the House today

declared that Attorney-General Palnoer had used his power as chief

prosecuting officer of the government for the purpose of fixing maximum Belling prices of sugar in Louisiana and i in so doing acted wholly without authority of law and in violation of his own construction of his official duty. The report, prepared by Representative Husted, (Rep4 N. Y., an chairman, charged that the legalistic method adopted by the attorney general was "wholly ineffective as means of price control," and that "it gave apparent governmental sanction to extremely

Mgh sugar prices, which excited the jjupldity of Cuban producers and caused an advance in the Cuban market." Refuse to Sign Report. Representatives Whaley, South Caroi lina, and Sumner, Texas, Democratic 1 members of the judiciary committee which conducted the investigation, refused to sign the report and announced that they would file a minority report. Republican members. Including Chairman Husted, who agreed in the findings, were Aepresentatives Classon, Wisconsin, and Boles, Iowa. Mr. Palmer Insisted before the committee that 'he had not fixed sugar prices but had merely stated the position of the department as to prosecu

tion for profiteering that Louisiana planters selling at more than 17 and 18 cents wholesale would be prosecuted under the Lever law. There were eight findings in the majority report, the resolution introduced by Representative Tinkham, Republican, Massachusetts, calling for an investigation, confininglhe committee inquiry to Louisiana transactions. The mority reported that because of the l Pat interest in sugar the committee allowed a wide range of testimony in the hope of developing facts which might lead to beneficial legislation.

WHY CHANGE

U WIFE?

A Paramount Artcraft picture by William DeMille with Thomas Meighan, Gloria Swanson, Bebe Daniels, Theodore Kosloff. Where was the girl he married? Where the lure, the glamour, the ecstatic sweetheart hours? Faded into dull, drab matrimony. Was he wholly to blame when another woman, aglow with the joy of living, slipped into the place in his life which his wife had left vacant? Was he? A vital, intimate picture of the great est, problem of love and marriage. Dressed in all the luxury, color and feminine beauty that distinguished DeMille's "Male and Female".
