A, Mitchell Paimer Attorney General in the Wilson administration, came under fire today in the Distriet of Columbla. Court of Appeals from Charles Evans Hughes, Secr £ State in the Harding and Coolldge ad- ministrations. and former Supreme | Court justice. Mr. "Hughes declared Mr. Palmer had abused the power of his office in forcing the “Big Five" meat puckers to accept the consent decrees of 1920, enjoining them from further dealing in unrelated lines of business. Willlam J. Donovan, assistant to the Attorney General, replying for the the Attorney General would scarcely be oonsidered in a discussion of the merits of the case. e added that the Government could not forever bound by statements of one Attorney General. Explains Decree’s Purpose. As to the stipulation in the decree that there was no admission of wrong- doing, he argued that naturally the packers would have insisted that law violations should they be attack- ed by the Government in other juris dictions. “The purpose of this decree.” he said, “‘was to prevent violations of the Sherman anti-trust act in the future and as such served the real purpose of the law. As we all know, dissolu- tion decrees after there has been a violation of the statute are more form than fact.” Mr. Hughes was admitted today to practice before the Court of Appeals to permit him to argue on behalf of Armour & Co. and Swift & Co., pack- ers, of Chicago, who are opposing a motion of the Department of Justice to dismiss their appeal from the re- fusal of Justice Jennings Bailev of the District Supreme Court to declare the consent decres of February : Mr. Donovan was also admitted to practice before the local tribunal. He is upholding the view that under the expediting act in reference to anti- trust cases appeals should be directly to the United States Supreme Court and not through an intervening ap- pellate tribunal. Col. Donovan also | claims that the decree | was within the injunctive powers of | the equity court which signed it | The argument today was opened by | Conrad H. Syme, who is associated with Mr. Hughes and Charles A. Douglas for the packers. He spoke on the moton to dismiss, pointing out that the expediting act does not ap- ply to the District Supreme Court, which is not a District court of the | United States. He also accused the | Government of a change of front, cit- | ing_the California Canneries Co. case. | Chief Justice Martin announced | that the gourt would give counsel the entire day’s session in which to pre sent argument: must-be tod today, be | their consent to the decree could not | be used as an admission of fact on | is valid and | %Falls in Stream, Drowns, as Resul Of Friendly ¢ By The Assoc ALENANDRIA tober 4.—Orrin kv into the St. Law drowned ye a presumably back by Arthur Le F ted Press BAY, N.
